With what he does for a living, ragging cars beyond speed limits on video, would you not just pay it, shut up and move on. I've unsubscribed, can't be doing with bleeting outspokens who pretend they are cleaner than clean and then moan about being caught out. It's borderline palletable anyway...

FB Market place? £200 NG postcode? Winner.

Great Preston is nice. Sure you'll like it there. I'm originally from Garforth. Left in the late 90's before it became it's own city. Spend a fair bit of time in Methley as well, which is a nice place.

Oooo 106 friend, looks lovely that. Where is it now?

Many thanks.

You're spot on here mate. It's more effort to do it wrong. I'm not mechanic either, but I'd never be able to drive it confidently with some of the stuff done to this.

I'd say 'those were the days' but to be honest, I look back now and think they were sh*t. Handled like boats, barring the Cav GSI with independent rear suspension and 150 bhp was as heady as you dare go. Boasting Dads in the pub beer garden about DOHC when they had no idea what it meant. But...

Sorry mate, totally missed this when you posted! I managed to stop the oil before it got to dripping. But I think I dropped brake fluid or something on the manifold before I wrapped it. I can't find any photos I took, but something in the back of my mind says it might have been contaminated...

Still not finished this :( The idle issue, is a combination of knackered components. I replaced the TPS: And the hesitation when applying the throttle has gone. Thank god. However it still idles very strange. So whilst it was running, I disconnected the MAP sensor and it idles and revs...

I had a hand me down mig, which either overheated after 60 seconds or refused to spool. Not ideal for a beginner as it was just stop/start with problem after problem. Looking for a replacement. Uses are the odd bit of car body work 2mm stuff, making brackets and various small household...

My kind of thread this. Love it. Iconic car of my youth, had the chance to own one (before they came collectable) and passed it up. Silly move. Interested to see some pictures of it after the skirts are on, it'll make a great project for someone to put the finishing touches on it. Any...

It's outside again. Wanted to see if I'd fixed a few things: - Idle - Oil leak Needless to say - I've fixed neither :( could be worse. ---------- New issue: (FFS) - clunk when turning the wheel when stationery, sounds like the spring is making a massive twang! Suspect this is the top...

Evening, I've never used exhaust wrap before, but freshly wrapped a manifold (not particularly well) and started the car today. It smoked pretty constantly, which I expected a little. But it didn't stop. The first header, which is the shortest (right) is showing discolouration. I think a...

I'm sure SOUP classic motoring has been mentioned on here before, if not - check it out. His latest video I watched with surround sound and it was one of the most cinematic car restoration videos I've ever watched! Wasn't intentional either. It doesn't seem to matter what the content is with...

He wasn't the only one. The scene for Saxos and 106's was very 'estate'. It's easy to say and by no means do I class this as rare, but because of the above abuse & rot, there aren't many left. 336 road going Quiksilvers out there, if that website means anything.

mini-rant: EVERYTHING on this car is broken or bodged. I expected most things would be, but its silly things now. You've seen it above, but its constant. It's annoying me now. Every little thing takes ages, when it looks straightforward. sigh. Anyway... Following on from the last update...

Wondering if you can offer some guidance as to what I'd need and what I'd need to do. The mission is to clean & detail a silver car. Some parts have been freshly painted, but the parts that haven't - have been exposed to the elements and in my opinion, look a little yellowish. The front wing...

More p**n in a max power mag feat. A fucked RS turbo on TSW Venoms.

What's the build etc? Is there a rush? I've seen all sorts used, doesn't matter what it's from as long as it works. Cooper s ones are a tenner off eBay. I have a spare if you need one quickly. 220 is borderline low boost! What turbo?! PM if you want.

There's a couple of different ones that work, cant remember if they need driver's or not, but Wayne knows. One of mine runs a Mini cooper S map sensor and the other runs a cosworth 3 bar. Both have different connectors based on which loom you have. The cooper s one is only a bar above...
