thats the nicest thing youve said to me in a long time - cheers ;)

i had a tussle with an 08 plate the other day - was an 08 plate though. wasnt happy that i passed him so he came after me, i turned off, then in my lights i saw he had came after me again - he still never got passed! vtec ftw nice motors though and i would have one.

aww cheers nugget...... forgot all about me eh - only problem i dont have my 172 anymore. it was also running an omex 600. coil packs and crank sensor can all be tested with a multimeter though. crank sensor is a magnetic switch which should open and close at either TDC or BDC i think...

V3? i wont ask.......

here we go - i'll try and write a post without getting banned! having driven ali's vee a couple of times and having previously owned a 203bhp 172 i'd say the vee would leave it quite easily. the vee does take a bit of getting used to and it was pissing it down one of the times so i was...

i asked them and they said no - apparently they had been in trouble for this before. most yank companies will label it up as a gift though. www.japanparts.com is another handy one to know, handy for mats, push start, parcel shelf etc and works out much cheaper then uk parts even if you get...

rocker cover is a spoon one - got it from these guys: www.nengun.com doesnt work out too bad for parts if you get away with not paying the duty, ive ordered a lot of parts through them and ive been hammered for 50% of the stuff so sometimes you get away with it. if yuo do get caught it...

http://www.tooled-up.com/Product.asp?PID=123133 try this bad boy - will light up your number plate no problem, also comes with a handy in car charger so you can charge it on the move. you dont get better than that.......

some filler and some silver paint will see that as good as new

looks right at home there...... a tractor in a field

sounds like a bad earth somewhere

selotape a torch to your back bumper, just remember to switch it off when you put the car to bed....... problem sorted

aye i actually thought that gaz - hope theyre okay mate.

cracking pics john

just as i was coming home i was trecking on shall we say, i came round a corner and was faced with 4 traffic cars with the blues and twos on surrounding a lorry!!!! never braked so hard in a long time....... wonder what the driver had done??

slits are for wee boys! they normally look like badly packed kebab's or burst couch's once im done with them......

i prefer to call it an axe wound myself

cut and shut!

bit of a show stopper that one...... get your graph up fella

cue thejesus with his fairytales....... yawn!

before you take your car anywhere fella make sure you search past problems people have had. there is plenty to read! try a search for markm and stoddie - will keep you interested for days...... i cant say anything or this post will get reported/removed by the followers.....

wrong again! you obviously didnt look close enough when it was lying down at gdi for months on end. not meaning to start an argument or nothing......

probably because its only available as an import - sometimes power and overall cost doesnt come into it. ive heard a new front bumper is about £500 notes and takes about a month to get one for a dc5 so i suppose thats all taken into consideration.

aye you can see it in the first pic with the black inlet manifold, its tight but it went in!

a few pics of the bay!

cheers for the comments guys - much appreciated. the DC5 is an awesome car - i bought it complatly standard back in august with 7500 miles on the clock , its an 04 plate and paid 16k for it. was grade 5A at the auction - so like new. a few tips on finding a good one - always ask for the...
