I'm in maidstone

Had an intermittent fault over the last few weeks when starting the car. Turn key to position 2 and the immobiliser light would flash constantly and I'd get no pump prime. It did this on the odd occasion but after a few try's it would start as normal. Now it's been almost 48hours and I can't...

Nope, rubbed a bit of wd40 around the lip of the pipe and it pushed straight on. The noise must be a shock for people going from a standard airbox, it's much louder over 4k than the old induction kit was.

Pipe turned up yesterday! Finished work at midday so decided to give fitting it a bash, took all of about 10mins I reckon. Old setup that was on the car when I bought it...lol IMAG1103 by terryclarke13, on Flickr Mahoosive sponge cake like filter removed along with the never ending cold air...

Saw an Nsx on the road for the first time today, didn't look too dated IMO. Also spotted a delorean covered in junk in someone's garage/car port but couldn't turn around to grab a pic.

Waiting on my pipe :(

Might pop along to this if the weather isn't too bad

Love the mad camo, car looks great!

Spotted a Monaco 172 on the main road from sittingbourne this morning, shortly followed by a flame red one. Anyone on here?

New forum fail

Bought some new (used) tyres a few weeks back, a set of still road legal R88s for a real good price, got them fitted ready for our first trackday with this car. Our first outing with the car would be Snetterton booked with Opentrack. Had never driven snetterton before so was looking forward to...

Nice, gonna stock up again.

Thanks for the comments! Still needs a bit of cosmetic work but its pretty close to where I want it for now. Just need to sort a few track sessions now before the end of the year!

Never heard that about door bars before, mine just went through with them.

After putting it through an Mot yesterday morning i thought I'd take the track car out and grab some pics. So glad I dont drive it daily anymore lol the rattles were killing me after 5 mins! Once moving though I remember why I love driving it, feels so much more planted and eager than the 172...

This. Should be a button inside the car to open and shut it. Had one on my mk1.

Parked on a drive down some cul de sac, looked really nice.

Cheap lint roller or a damp MF seems to work best on my dash.

New brakes fitted this week. Got slowed down by the weather and one rear caliper being held on by 5 sided bolts..wtf!? Managed to smash and old spanned over them tho and replace with some normal bolts. Car is insured now so not long until its on the road and hopefully in time for a Brands...

As above. Of the 3 I've bought without an mot I've never paid over £400.

Sold it to some guy down the road to put in his Volvo 340, not sure if he ever finished it tho.

Thanks. Yeah we had the same combo on the last car and it felt really good under braking.

Day off...parts arrive... Weather is grim!

Was up brands yesterday evening for an evening session in a friend's car. Was a few clios out on track and lots in the car park for the meet after, anyone from here? My Monaco 172 was parked near a couple in the top car park.

Still waiting on a date for the work to be carried out at the bodyshop so thought its best we tackle the bonnet catches this weekend, quite a time consuming job in the end trying to get it all lined up properly but got there in the end. Will make working in the bay so much easier. No going back...

Might be lucky, my dad picked up the same model with a few pads and some polish second hand for £45 on eBay.

Bottom one from i4 out of those 3. Have the same machine but the pro version myself and it's been great.

Did my first white car on Sunday with the Da, brother turned up with his new runabout...a £250 focus with the dullest paint I've seen and it looked like a cheap respray job (overspray everywhere). Before and after doesn't do it justice but he was shocked how it came up.

haha very modest. Looked clean.

Stunning!
