right basically my old tv (crappy sanyo thing) had a very good picture and no reception problems i recently bought a samsung 32" flat screen jobbie with built in freeview i plugged in the aerial (there is a feed throughout the house to the main aerial, this also means you can watch whatever...

we have to authorise new tyres on a driven axle to match the other side, but that's just good practice, don't think it's the law. the maserati we had not so long back, main dealer said we had to fit a matching tyre on the opposite side (undamaged) just as a precaution so that both tyres were...

have you made up your mind what cams to go for? or is this precisely the problem? lol

or whatever it's called how hard is it to replace just one pin i'm pretty sure i have a loose connection so it's either a) the actual pin that connects to the ecu or b) the connection between the wire and the pin i have resided on this being one of the problems, as over the weekend my car...

sounds good bumface

i would explain to them that they are welcome to have another go, but if you still aren't happy will they renew the wheel? see what they say

polished wheels like that are a nightmare to get right! we normally end up renewing them if they are damaged

depends what has been registered if it is marked as stolen and gives the local police number to contact, then is recovered with no damage, it may well not go onto the register, the 'stolen' status is cleared when the vehicle is recovered if it is marked as stolen and recovered, but has a...

i've just HPI'd it and it doesn't come back as stolen recovered, so the insurance co. musy have cleared the history and sold it on

then you want a female torx socket like this glad i could help :)

it's not marked on hpi as stolen so the insurance company must have cleared it and sold it on i don't see the problem in buying a previously stolen car with no damage

yes or a male torx head someone will know what you mean lol are you by any chance trying to find a socket to undo it?

eh!?!? you're saying it's 'almost' like a torx head, so i asked for a pic to see what's 'almost' about it.... ....and then you say its basically a torx head! :S so is it or isn't it? torx head reverse torx is it either one of those?

got a pic?

i think he is still saving pennies for the big spend

right got a few things to check there then im just very very reluctant to adjust tdc and fire it up again as i dont think the timing is correct and the problems seem to have got worse the more i run it

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project curse of fcs? its hit me already :( you got another mount?

btmperformance@gmail.com that one so if its not the timing (will check it with the proper tools) what else would cause it to run like that? btw the inlet smells of fuel, as do the spark plugs and the oil filler cap, could that be just due to attempting to start it a few times? could...

Fred, did you get my email (your pm box is full) about the timing tools? i did it at both the cylinder closest to flywheel (pictured) and cylinder closest to cambelt (not pictured) as i couldn't remember which was number 1 both times it showed they didnt line up perfectly with each other...

lol smart arse :rolleyes:

looking good :D i'll await my passenger ride at fcs :approve:

right, when the cambelt was first done we checked it time and time again by turning it over by hand, checking the tensioner and checking the locking tools slotted in, which they did it ran and idled without any problems in that car since then i have moved the engine into another car, the...

1. why is there a wheel next to it? 2. are they parking tickets on it's wiper?

noble isnt it? edit: i was wrong! its an ASCARI ELOSSE according to hpi

wit woo! i said it should of been an 'earth' colour, but i know what else you have planned so it should look schweet when all done :D

i thought that was only on fbw? as its the idle that needs adjusting, on a cable throttle setup you can adjust that manually so i've been told anyway

awesome machine :approve:
