Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project
yeah id put a topic up on one of the forums askin if you can pin it at the front and use original catch cant see a problem with it really but thought id ask.
Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project
cool i was thinking of doing something along the same lines but wasnt sure defo want pins right pain in the arse these bonnets its hard enough squeezing your hand in tight spots without the bonnet stopping you get in the front lol.
lmfao someones taking the piss, had a few pages of cars for sale clipped into my broken wing mirror this morning. opertunists, wnakers the lot of them lol
yeah i know im gonna call insurance today i think see what they say. and yeah thats the van you can just see where i had hit him but its not much damage
tell me about it its been killing me stripping the car looks a f**king shed now was so clean before everything colour coded ect just looks neglected now wanna cry every week id do somthing to it cleaning bits up replacing bits arrggg so clean was so proud.
thing is now its got me so fed up i...
yup and i just found it theres a very strong chance of it going 50 50 so i probably wont be claiming unles he does, his van wasnt to bad just a dint he drove it home. and that means i probably wont claim for whip lash
this is what im worried about if he dont accept it and they argue im in the wrong its a 60 limit i was doing 50 and slowing where the brake marks are is where i started braking strongly not where i started alltogether.
some engine shots
the guy didnt try anything just asked if i was ok didnt admit anything at the time i was like its just one of them things so im not sure what to do insurance wise ect.
car wasnt a 1.2 no lol it was a joke.
police said no one was actually at fault its just one of them things people do that speed...
fitted my new corbeau seat yesterday went for a little drive nothing silly just over the back roads was busy so couldnt go at any speed.
coming over a hill and a van is in the middle of the road pulls into my lane to wait for space in traffic and with me doing 50ish i plow straight into him.
all...
i had it in my old 172 was a coo, feature as not many others had it, was a better sat nav at the time than my mates tom tom altho it needed updating as new roads wasnt on it and id get told to turn around lol
Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread
they have to order them from omp in italy then they have to make them and send them out to you, it takes time having a cage for everycar would need a f**king big place to store them so you shoudl expect a little wait.
lucking il got mine second hand unused...
the only hot hatch i cant stand just sumin about the look of them and the drivers, a mate laughed at me when i said my mk1 had 160 brake wiped that off his face when we went for a drive.
if you want a honda do it properly and get a integra you hardly ever see them on the roads they handle better...
Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread
that looks proper tidy mate mine was a right mess i just didnt bother and put the dash in thought it looked alot better, imo unless you can get rid of everything inc heater matrix all wires it dont look right but youve got that proper tidy.
i agree i miss my old 172 all the time everytime i see a black one i just remember how much i loved mine and how hard i worked for it and how i thought nothing could compair, few months back i test drove a ph1 and 2 182s and was bitterly dissapointed.
lol i remember somthing on my blowers breaking and me taking it off and it having a audi badge on it, german c***s still trying to get one over on the french, they cant just drop it and admit defeat
Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread
looks good mate sooo wish i had a big garage like that id have my car off the road in no time to strip right down to clean ect. ill be coming back for updates.
and its a williams manifold alot better than the valver manifold was holding mine back abit in the higher revs and the torque people say you loose isnt noticable imo plus the valver one weights more than the car so it was a nice upgrade.
yeah sure ill just bosh some up not got any recent ones with cage coilovers and other little bits tho.
im thinking of getting the ast strut tops as there orange and would go nicely with mt coilovers :)
tell me about it dont know where they dream the prices up could probably be found...
i have indeed got the cage of a chap called alex from wales, not sure on heatshield depends where you go ive got a reciept for one for around 140 quid from last owner but ive heard of them going for 70 from dealers.
