Well i'm dying for a cruise control retrofit and some eibachs, so theres mutual envy! haha.

Thought i'd share a brief photo of my garage for the next year and a half :D we've got compressed air, aircon machines, tyre fitting, every car is on a scissor lift, and more tools than i'll ever use. Very excited (even if I'm not trained to use half of it yet). Will be getting in there a lot...

Looks ace mate! Definitely keeping an eye on this one.

Auto lights still work just fine :) Didnt have to do a thing other than take the old ones out and put the new ones in. Dead simple, wouldn't even notice they had changed!

Just ordered some of the forte diesel treatment thanks to Chip's recommendation. MPG had been quite low in comparison to what it was prior to a head rebuild, so I gathered it wouldn't do any harm to run something through the system. Intrigued by getting injectors sonically cleaned though!

New arrivals! Not likely to get any ramp time at work until next week now, which isnt too much of a shame - Means I can get some satin black on the grill! May consider some brembo Pads in the mean time (especially at only £22), the old ones are fine and have had them checked since they...

The only thing playing on my mind about this game is the lack of car numbers. Granted they're all going to be autovista quality. But I did love the lower classes and speccing them up, even the likes of an Rs clio or fiesta st would be nice! Might be just me, but that's because I usually stay...

Kind of intrigued by sunset overdrive, not a lot out there to look at at the moment though. Completely forgot about halo, preorder definitely going down for that.

I got mine from tesco online. Not sure if they have any left though. Which games is everyone getting for release date? I have forza already as part of the Day One. I'm thinking of putting preorders down on BF4 and The Crew?

Should have gone for the 100 :) bit more boot, and I am gutted if I ever average below 70mpg!

Tempting since its so close to me!

Incredibly simple, incredibly effective. Tidys the front end up a hell of a lot! You could whip a pair straight off a sport and straight on to a DCI (providing they still have the ballasts and motors attached) and in terms of light, theres no way to compare them, whole different league.

I looked through and the Blue and Brown cables for the drivers side pretensioner weren't connected. Connecting made no difference, so whacked a 3.3Ohm resistor in their place to loop it back - Voila, no fault code. Theres a guide on here somewhere, its a bit vague, but gives a fair idea :) In...

Fitted my Xenons pal, check out my thread to see them <-------- Proper doddle to put them in. Straight plug and play with the old wiring.

So dropped the car in to the 2nd years at work since they were all bored, to fix my aircon since it hasn't be right since the rebuild. Turns out the rebuild company didn't plug a single thing back in, and the pump isn't even engaging! So they wheeled the car in to the workshop to test the...

Wont be attending this one, on the other end of the M4 (But at least get to pick up an RS grill to make up for it.) Will try my best for the next one! Should be easier now I work in Essex!

One more for the night since I'm bored, heres the said xenons in action: Theyre 6K HIDs, not thatblue, but a nice tint. Haven't got any side lights in at the moment, will be getting them in when I get some LED ones, rather than spoil the look with the standards from my old headlights.

Keep this updated mate, would like to see where you go with it and to see how your plans differ from mine :)

Airbag fault: SOLVED. Turns out it was the drivers pretensioner that wasn't connected. The wires had been cut to about 3-4mm on the connector block and it was proving impossible to get it all wired up (Destroyed a connecting pin in the process) so along came the resistors! Straight in, not a...

I like the blue! Definitely drop Xenons on next ;)

Still looking tidy mate! Jealous of the wheels. Any links for the bulbs, think I might have to get my hands on some for the DCi :D

Agreed with both! Once the RS grill is on, I think i'll be laying off until the new year. Then it'll be full sport kit and remap. New plates are certainly a must, they've had their day. Thinking pressed, but not sure if theyre worth the hassle with the police, even if I do find a legal set...

Alas, finally got around to fitting these! Forgot to take a before picture, doh. Changes the front end so much, I didnt think it would! Will get a picture in the dark later this evening. RS Grill next! C&C Welcome as always.

Looks mint mate, will surely be looking towards yours for some inspiration! Picked up my xenons yesterday and going to get them on next week, a pig of a job then?

Well, I just happened to have picked up these! Quickly threw some C2v3 on them as some basic protection, will get them on when I can get some ramp time at work :) In other news, need to investigate some knocking when braking, need to take a look at the ARB or maybe ABS rings.

Looks very nice mate, love the colour! Suits the yellow fogs. Xenons and spacers next ;)

Recently I've found my dci has been buffering and knocking slightly under heavier braking, I recently changed my ARB, So assumed it may be this. But I've also found that if braking a fair bit going over a bump, I get a large "clunk" from under the front of the car and feel it in the brake...

^ Surprised it took up to post 9 for a F&F reference.
