ooook so i need to check that the insurance company will let me driver over vechiles TPFT
and the vavler would be covered fully comp under my dad but if i was driving it, only 3rd part under me, not for fire or theft?! (tho if i did get knicked couldnt i say it was under my dads possesion?)...

nobody has replied to this as yet, but i think it should be totally legal
Ok i donno if this has been brouht up before, juts want your views on my theory..
i cant afford to insure a vavler under my name TPFT (im 19, 0NCB, but have pass plus - which doesnt mean jack to insurance companies)
anyway.... my dad just got a quote on a valver for £250 fully comp (£50...
if the car has a brake bias, then its like a regulator, if the car is fully looaded i.e. loads weight int he bak the rear drops and the bias consonsates the braking.
if u lower it without adjusting it u could find the rear over braking.
£140 seems alright. u could do the whole lot yourself...
aahh.....
yea see your point mate.
im not really after noise, just smarter looking rear end, and maybe pull throughthe revs and bit better, the De-cat seems to have helped no-doubt but full stainless steel exhuast might help a bit better.
ya bought this..

ya git i was bidding on it :cry:
got a mongoose full stainles steel exhuast lined up, hopefully that with my de-cat should be a lil better than the rust pencil pipe thats on their now.
honest 35 doing look too bad, ive never had probs on the front with 35, with 45 profiles on, i reckon i could have 50s no probs at all.
the back depending on condition of your shocks. i would say 40/50 its hard to get the back a precise drop anyway.
ive got mine (1.4) lowered 35 at front and about 50-60 at the back. cant really take anybody in the bak, as too many speed bumps about.
handles alot fecking better tho. and looks alot smarter
would need two engines, with exact same BHP as standard on RR.
and if there was a difference of even 1 BHP they would bloth have to be happy with one standard engine producing an extra BHP than the other, could see it getting a bit petty
would be kool tho yea.
my dads GF kids asked me the other day, if i wanted any alloy caps, as i had a couple missing coz some cheeky barstads had nicked mine.
in return i asked "where will u be getting these from?"
oh we will knick them for u they replied :@
i was soooooooo pissed off cudda wacked them the dam...
i honestly donno why u pulled over.
should of let her drive into u mate, i know i would of, (and have in the past, she was on myside of the road, i didnt move and she finally realised i wasnt gonno give in got bak tight on her side of the road)
if she had of crashed into u would have...
well at the mo im only TPFT so i can get away with certain mods, because basically they nver check your vechile.
i have a De-cat but my car was registered before 92 so i can get away with that anyway. so its not like anything i have done to my car is illegal as it would all pass the MOT...
Wanna sell it dirt cheap to a poor student? :oops:
to be honest i dont even look at petrol prices, i just stick £5 or £20 if its a long jounry. coz at the end of the day if i watch the prices like ppl do im gonno start penny pinching. tho im scared one i will look up at its £1 a litre :sick:
yea coz its an inelastic product/service, like petrol everybody needs it and there is no substitutre so basically they get away with what they wana charge :cry:
on one hand hes getting ripped off, wotever needed replaceing coz u can always do it yourself for the price of the parts.
on the other hand, its a fairly new car and on kinda has to be done like this if he wants a decent service history.
1 main reason i wouldnt buy a spanking new car unless...
K i did this with norwhich union, ended up getting quoted £400 more than what it was with just me on it. lol
somthing must be up there, dads max years driving, max NCB
^^ have u checked? ;)
as for trashing my lil RT yea always do, mainly because i think
1. stupid driving really, no need to speed other than to cure my addiction
2. cant be good for the lil bugger.
