surely if it had been serviced correctly throught its life, then the cambelt would have been done long ago?? 3 years ago!!
which implies to me that it has NOT been looked after for at LEAST the last 3 years!!
if it had been looked after it would have had the belt done!!
personally id ask the...
Bad indcution kit = -2BHP
Great induction kit = +1BHP
the differences made from filter mods are so pathetic it's laughable!
if you want a tiny (and i mean tiny) bit of performance for not much money, then go with the following
Manifold
Decat
yozza exhaust
Matched inlets
v6 airbox
you...
rear strut braces do absolutley nothing
except for looking good!
so is it on the inside plastic arch that the wheel hits?? (due to the offset being too big)
the simple answer would be to get a better set of wheels!!
probs more hastle than its worth tbh,
seriously i live in Essex and enjoy the cruise scene so my car gets a lot of police attention,
and ive never had it mentioned to me at all!
and if it botheres you that much, get shorter wipers so that they dont go over the strip,
then its 100% legal...
i have one, and im pretty sure its 7 inches, (car is stripped out too)
and theyve never pointed it out,
it IS technically an MOT fail if the windscreen wipers go over it, but im yet to find any MOT station that bothers!!
im sure if they did bring it up and you offered to tear if off there and...
personally id take the carpets, headlinging and doorcards out and leave it at that!!
no music would get tiresome imo,
then perhaps change to manual windows, lighter battery, cutting inner skins out,
i love my car being as stripped as it is! and i use it as a daily!!
by far the best...
he clearly thinks his unique selling point is some ott pioneer headunit,
plus it sounded terrible when he turned it up! and the car looks guff!! lol
what a tool
epic bump!!
if someone was chasing them and they had no idea why, surely they should have justed pulled over and asked wtf they were doing?? my imediate reaction wouldnt be to run tbh.
it does bring back a few memories, i got chased a few times back in the day, but it never really bothered me...
tbh you will struggle incredibly hard to find a single person who likes the mods youve done!
stick the wheels on ebay,
bin the flaps and 16v badge and start again tbh,
take inspiration from the thread posted on page 1 and you can make a very nice car!
but as it stands, im not a fan, sorry.
try and keep to standard parts for the most of it,
dual optic headlights
ph2 rear lights,
ph2 door strips,
OZ f1 wheels, or some euro/dub/scene wheels
coilovers, (lower it a lot)
dynamic spoiler/cup spoiler,
megane splitter
fogs
sport interior
colour coding!
tasteful exhaust.
i did pretty...
i wouldnt say touched a nerve, because personally i think they look guff,
but its peoples styling choise, and to call people a t**t just because that is their taste makes you come across like a bit of a bellend tbh.
perhaps thats their way of getting themselves noticed.
i think having your...
bonnet struts are good,
bonnet lifters are bad!
i guess on SOME cars they are needed to keep engine temperatures down,
or let cold air in for airfeeds,
i guess to others they just give it that tuner look! (like putting "tow" stickers/straps, and tape over the lights)
its just another band...
Please scan in the story!!
im guessing the mag just ask how much power its making then print it, and he says err 220bhp!
**awaits what "proof" the seller has of the power**
its VERY VERY hard to get away with rocking standard steelies!
even more so painting them in a larey colour,
and steelies are kind of the dub scene, so making a feature of steelies when the car isnt on epic stance is even MORE of a fail!
and the lack of dish adds a bit more fail to the above...
law is, you can do what the hell you like with any of the glass behind the Bpillar, you can grab a brush and paint them with black hammerite if you do so wish.
Law on the front windows is that they MUST let 70% of light through,
but before you go booking tints, remember that if the glass has...
even if you sold the headlights and wheels for 400,
the rest of the car wouldnt sell for 2k!
think about it, without the wheels and lights it will look like a half hearted bodge attempt at making a replica and put a lot of people off!
theres more to it that simply adding the value of the parts...
Re: 8 Ball Diner Meet!!!
good times!!
im not sure im even going to that since i think theres a big clio16valver meet going on,
or a show, or a rwyb day,
or for some reason im meant to be going to the shakespear raceway! im not really sure why
