You'll probably not do it fella when you find out whats involved AND cost.. I think Fred's kinda got everything at his finger tips i.e: All the equipment, contacts and knowledge to do it on his own(ish)... and to him its been a project for a little while.. look into it though mate, would be...

Indeed!. a mega geek admin of a large UK Lan i know has just paid just over £28k for a cooper-s Works... WTF!!?!?!!?!?!!!? but they have leant him a CooperS convertible for a month whilst its being delivered! ha... the salesman must have hit target for months on that one :)
Hi Fellas... My cups on 60k now but with about an 8k Engine / Gearbox / Clutch.... Just concerned about things such as the Suspension and various other car bush things... Im not very technically minded but just seems that my cars "body" is at that age where these things should need replacing...
my cup had a new engine 10k ago alone with loads of other bits replaced.. have 11 payments left... im gonna keep it for years now... love it... will be great to have no car loan to pay for 4 or so years! :)
haha that happened to me in my Cup... ended up hardly ever working.. Well wierd being at ZERO MPH when your moving... at least the mileage didnt go up during that time tho :).. had to judge speed limits by the rev counter in certain gears ha
alright fella, i was actually thinking of selling my diamond audio CM310" DVC sub... if i actually want to ill give you a shout... if you get one make sure you get a decent amp that will run each voice coil at 2ohms
welcome, when you say "at least 200bhp" you make it sound like you THINK its pretty cheap to get it over the magical 200 mark. If you're thinking a simple IK and exhaust will do, it wont... not a PROPER 200+ figure.. Maybe if you took it to the likes of LAD after those they might say it is...
hehe i was trying this trick the other night actualy... turn in, let off accelerator and the back end comes round but then the car just snaked the other way and i ended up perpendicular to the traffic, and out side the old bill station too... glad i did it AND nothing wrong happened as its made...
I used to have all the "locals" details on the back of my sunvisor.. v.handy at times... lost it though, think it blew out the window when i moved the visor to block sun from my right hand side.. ha, dick
Ive owned two calibras, the 150 16v, and a V6.. both were like boats round a roundabout, and almost fall over :) .. My cup destroys them both... and, yeh the turbos are fast (when working!) but arent they one of the "most unreliable cars ever?" - told by an old Vaux mechanic i once knew
im going the Ipod route but cant be arsed with having to touch the iPod. Im buying an "iPod/pioneer box" which plugs into the back of the Headunit and into the ipod, then hide the ipod away. You can then control the ipod from your head unit just like if you were seaching a CD.. bout £50
