The ice notches up another victim!

I can't be bothered to go into to much detail at the moment regarding the accident but offer a warning to others who may be thinking of taking their cars out during these icy conditions? Don't bother. It hurts to much. http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg122/basscube/04012010046.jpg http://i247.pho...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] tubby hks exhaust pics

how loud are they? Saves me starting a new thread! Also interested to know how loud/quiet they are. To answer the questions, swapped out a Berk Tech exhaust in favour of the HKS. Apart from only weighing about half the weight of the Berk, the exhaust is a very quiet exhaust in comparison. I do not ...

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Toms Side skirts

Thanks for the reply Mark.
I'm not in any real hurry, and am prepared to wait for a genuine set to come along.
I will also be needing the Toms rear bumper so the same question applies really.

[Mk2] [Generic] Toms Side skirts

I am considering fitting a set of Tom side skirts and would appreciate any feedback. Ideally i would like the genuine article but would settle for a good fitting replica if one is available?

Re: 5S - Second engine rebuild required already!!!

Did you use a heat resistant paint??? I used the normal type spray can from halfords. Just make sure that everything is spotlessly clean, use a degreasant initially like Gunk, but during the painting stages i used the alcohol wipes that you can also get from halfords. The reason for this was that i...

Re: modifying the side vents

Hi Mate,
I modded the side vents myself.
It's not what i would call difficult, but if you want a tidy job? it's not something that can be done in a couple of hours.
Luckily, i took plenty of photos, if your interested i may try to make this in to a HOW-TO ?
