cheers but your not making it any easier mate lol, i know i'll regret selling it (i'm positive i'll never be able to get a 6 in as good condition as this again) but i've had it a year and a half, time to move on and 'try' and be sensible for a bit
Thanks mate ;)
i've already paid him for it a while ago mate at a discounted price (not quite as good as he's getting now though haha)
will need to catch up again soon
ahh so you did ! Yeh the foam from it is really impressive and i only used about 50ml of it in 1L (not even a cm in the bottom) and it was enough to do 2 cars easily, wish i had some acti-mousse left to try against it for cleaning power with a touchless wash
not used cotton candy and i heard...
haha actually thanks for reminding me, need to get Craig to send up a bottle of C1 as i'm going to give it a go myself, really need to give it a quick going over with the rotary aswell tbh
aye he seems to be keeping busy anyway ! DW has been quiet without him posting as much haha
talking about...
Happenin bud ! I'm not bad cheers, you ? I'm just enjoying the peace now Craigs away down south ! He's still managing to wind me up sending me pics of his new pot of SV Crystal Rock though lol
ah nice one just had a look and might give it a go, never noticed that SV did something like that...
as you've found out mate it's Active Yaw Control, which in simple turns is an onboard computer that tries to kill you lol !! don't get me wrong it works well and obviously is part of the Evo's great handling but it takes a bit of getting used to !
i was going to buy the coilover socks but tbh water/salt/dirt will find their way in somehow and then all it's doing is keeping it damp inside, wasn't sold on them
cheers for all the comments, i shouldn't have posted an update though as i'm 50/50 on whether to sell or not (even got the for sale ad written last night) so anything can sway me right now lol
wocka - i love it mate (as you might have already guessed), the main things i'll say is take your time...
aye theres so many coilovers that have the 'anti-corrosion' coatings (even KW etc...) but it's all just a sales pitch as i've not seen a set up coilovers a couple of years old that haven't started to corrode
they got thorough clean a couple of months ago and were holding up ok (they did have a couple of rust spots though), they've been on since September 2010 btw, i take it you've got them on yours (can't see what you've got from your avatar) ? how you find them ?
aye def get yourself up there Lee...
just realised how long it's been since i updated this......:eek:
well might aswell share a few of the latest pics of how it's looking
the only downside is that i'm considering selling up (need to put the sensible hat on and save for my next house)...................BUT i honestly don't know if i...
Layering wax is definitely not a bad thing mate, just make sure it's nice thin layers and it will be spot on and last ages, i always put 2-3 layers of wax on
no point in using a sealant over a wax as the wax will break down before the sealant and will end up shortening the 'life' of the sealant
love the wheels but just not on the RS, just doesn't look right with the lairy syling and colour, their more suited to smooth less 'fussy' cars
you would probably get away with 20's not looking 'over wheeled' but 19's are as far as i'd go, screw the ride on 30 profile lol :S
just thought i'd mention that a virtually brand new Alpine IDA-X305S came up for sale last week and i couldn't say no so ended up buying it and i fitted it at the weekend
have to say this is the best HU i've ever had by far, had a Kenwood in there before and the Alpine/Pioneer speakers that i...
personally i would ditch the capacitor and spend the extra £20 on better speakers
Can't go wrong with Alpine but what about:

if you not bothered about CD's then their decent, i've got the IDA-X305S and it's by far the best HU i've had...
the seats in the Evo 5 and 6 are Recaro Treadlines which came in some clios anyway so at a guess all you would need is to get the clio subframes and they 'should' fit no probs
the only thing they won't do is have the release for getting into the back so you would just need to move/wind it forward
cheers bud will do, doubt i'll be up your way anytime soon though
went to the local Halfrauds to see if they had any of the headunits in and as usual they only had overpriced crap, will need to scout out a decent car audio place arounf Fife/Edinburgh area and go and have a look this weekend
yeh i'm still swaying towards the Alpine ro55o but will try and keep an open mind the now till i see/try them in person
ah right nice one Dean, i will prob be looking to buy one in Feb so if i can make it to the meet i'll def have a wee nose around
