Git, I very nearly had two wins, damn your last half strike!
Good to meet you properly this time round.
Non sports all decided to evaporate, Mike broke down, Ben was skint, EvilGiraffe was ill, but not a bad turn out tbh :)
Shame you couldn't make it Ell
Ah cool, cheers Mike, I was just going to have a go myself, but I'd prefer having someone there who's done it before.
What have you actually done to it then?
Cheers.
Could be a lot worse Mike, you're lucky you can do so much yourself/at work, whats the actual damage?
I really need to sort out my sticking caliper next, its squealing like a b**ch!
Re: iPhone 4G (No longer rumours)
In my completely un-knowing, and probably wrong opinion:
I think this could just be a "test body", a very bland case which is big enough to hold all of the hardware necessary for the new model, but has not yet been styled, allowing the phone to be fully tested...
The sand paper leaves you with a smooth-ish finish, but due to it being sanded, its keyed so the paint sticks, it doesnt matter if it feels totally smooth to touch, I sanded it with what looks to be somewhere around a 500 grit, but its a guess, as its just down as "medium" on the halfords sponge...
Yes indeed that is it, and yes indeed it has a heat shield, easy to remove, twist and pull, if you twist pull, clean and re-fit, and it works for min, then you'll just need to get another, I always found when mine was fubar'd it'd still work if you took it out for a bit and cleaned it etc.
Re: iPhone 4G (No longer rumours)
I'm unsure what to think tbh.... I don't like how that looks, but I don't believe it to be final either, I think they'll be serveral tweaks before production, so I'll be having it :)
Really? I wasn't aware of that, and thought they all had GB sensors.... I'll return to my hole now.
Unless its just the sensor at the ABS ring or whatever?
Right, I can tell you how to wire them up to get them both working, but I have no idea how to get the passenger switch on the drivers side to work aswell I'm afraid.
Personally, other than ground and constant live, I use all new wiring....
Now, I'm calling pin 1, the one nearest the bottom...
Oh dear god, memories, I can tell you all, as I've done the same thing, but you'll have to give me a while to think about it/read.
Only thing I couldnt get, was the drivers side control to do the passenger side window.
You can use this, it has a rough outside, so you can actually sand with it until its knackard, then just wrap it in sand paper if you want to carry on using it as a flat edge:
Click me!
I can take a pic of it when I get home, I used a halfords sanding sponge to sand it to start with, being so soft and bendy made it easy to sand it all/get in all the nooks and crannies.
I then painted the whole thing, then just used a standard sanding block, you can use a chunk of wood if you...
There are a couple of things to help the driving position, you can take the rubber spacer type things out of the standard seat subframes, lowering the seating position, or a set of Recaro's/any other nice buckets will see you happy.
I only say Recaro's as they come standard in the Trophy...
I stood in diesel for the first time ever yesterday (sheltered I know), I couldn't believe how sippery it was, there was a massive puddle of it at the pump, so I assumed it was water, when I nearly stacked it walking in to pay for fuel, I told the guy "there's diesel all over the floor over...

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77
I wish you had this car at Colshe's when I came and picked up mine, would have loved to see it in the flesh. Remember it from a long time ago, even before it went so hardcore I farking loved it. Possibly my favourite...
Cheers mate, haven't used the polishing kit yet, only because the halfords "sanding sponge" (which is like a thick washing up cloth thing with sand paper on) has made the letters amazingly shiny!!! lol!
I may just give it back to you tbh, but I'm gonna give it a go on my gear knob first, really...
