Get rid of all the stupid stickers/badges and it wont look half bad, also why did you paint you lower arms pink? Oh and why paint them on the car?

M3.

Was going to reply to this thread but can't be arsed anymore, but Marks put the point down perfectly.

Sorry Chip completely disagree with you here as many people will do, it makes driving quick around a track much easier. Why let off the clutch slowly when you could just rev match and be smoother, less harmful to the car and quicker...

Mint Ben, properly mint! Hope things are good up your way, works changed so much in the last year or so!

Raider had a different engine in it iirc? Volvo 1.7 Turbo rather than the 1.4 Turbo?

Not bad for £900 Tom, like Gaz said if its rotten underneath just sell all the good bits that are worth some money and run in into the ground. Learn to drift it, 'run the wall' with or what have you and break it once its not 'road worthy'.

Now why am I so tempted by it? lol

Lol, exactly my thoughts! Though i'd happily buy it if it came up for sale for a 'reasonable' price. ;)

£600 a month! Jesus you could build a garage for less than a years rent that would last forever!

Dan - If you've got everything there get on with it! lol If not offer Budgie some money and he'd do it in an afternoon! ;)

Cheers all! Mark - Indeed the rev matching is a right habit, pretty much do it all the time! Obvously not high rpm rev matching all the time but it feels a bit unnatural not doing it! Hopefully it'll be completely standard by Mar/Apr time and saving atm for the repaint. Dave - I know tell me...

Anyone on this evening? Built a susuki liana earlier, should do a liana race if a few people are interested?

Lol! Always rev match in the ///M for fear that the non-rebuildable gearbox will blow up otherwise! Your only jealous as your charver Cup hasn't got a video of you giving it some beans! ;) Xxx

Ordered myself a Karcher with snow foam lance and valet pro shampoo for it. Other than that not a lot, though probably getting another big MF drying town and maybe bilberry wheel cleaner.

So with the infinite boredom that comes with Christmas I thought i'd eventually start messing about using my GoPro HD video camera, been trying a few places/angles on the car and this is the first one to upload. (Took 2 and a half hours, s**t internet FTL!) It's a bit long winded but eventually...

No, how do you get it? Also where do you find what achievements you've got?

Cheers for the heads up, I know i'm not expecting wonders with the snowfoam but my current pressure washers is a POS and might as well get the snow foam lance and shampoo to go with it. Like others have said if moves most of it then it makes things easier to clean with bucket and mitt.

Would love to do a trip like this! Rather cheap also going from Dans costings!

Having trawled through various threads and seen not a lot of info, whats a very good/best shampoo to use? Looking to order a snow foam lance from I4D and they have a couple of choices on offer with the lance (I4D Snow Foam 5L and Britemax Clean Max), worth going with these or something better...

Cheers!

So looking at also getting a Karcher for myself this christmas, like others have said i'm looking at getting the refurbished K3.575 unit. Wheres the best place to get the snowfoam lance from that everyone uses? I'm guessing it's a straight plug in a go on these pressure washers. Also whats the...

Had one on my Cup, mainly as I was doing a trackday every month and couldnt be arsed to take it out. My car was stripped out with wrap-arounds as well as being lowered/spaced loads with -3 Degrees of camber, so it was purposeful. However on standard cars it looks pony to be quite frank...

Nice progress, should of fitted the 421's when doing all that work. Bet it would saved a whole load of hassle!

Lol if that is actually Gally, bless him!

I broke my non running Cup and have made over a 'genuine' £6k from it so far, estimate I still have £1500 worth of stuff in the shed. It had a few good bits but nothing on the 'spec' of this car, though I still wouldn't pay £7k for this. £5,000 and id be tempted.

Because its the way to get the modifications you want without paying full price, or even at all! ;)

This, the BIGGEST mistake I made with my racecar was mess about with the loom, and look where it is now...

Lol, I did see a nice E39 525tds drive past me today, thought of you straight away Ollie! :)

Built with ITB's so he could do a trackdays in it next year and it would 'reliable'! Lol But now he'll change his mind and say he's got the money to go and buy a lambo to do trackdays in! Lol
