    G60 ISV

    Strange - mine was OK this morning, started fine, drove 20 miles to work still idling fine. Go have a look at lunch time, started and idled fine , unplugged the Blue Temp Sensor and it dropped and sounded like i explained before. On the way home on starting/idling was OK then when it was hot the revs dropped sounding like the BTS was unplugged again. What i didn't mention before was my temp guage hasn't worked for the last month or 2. Whats going on here ?? Both Blue and Black sensors gone ??

    G60 ISV

    Well i'm embarrased to say that i had a look but don't even know where it is !! LOL. I know that avatar says enthusiast but i'm very much a newbie too this G60 malarky. So WTF is it . Suspension is amazing !! Ride back was great, the road from Southam to Daventry was cool - was grinning from ear to ear round the twisties until a pheasant decided to walk out in front of me !! Ouch !! No damage but i sh@t myself !!

    G60 ISV

    A bit OT but have you sorted your car out now ? As of yesterday my idle has gone a bit mad - keeps dropping far too low and almost stalling on me, ISV do you think ? The wierd thing is that it has been idling too high for months, i'd pull up at lights with it revving its nuts off sometimes before it slowly settled to 900 - 1000 rpm, Stealth were gonig to look at it but never got the time.
  5. Yeah 4x100 to 5x130 are available, like rileys design 90's use 'em.
  6. As gradeAfailure pointed out, its up to you if they look good or not, i personally am bored with 5 spoke alloys, theres only a select few that i would have - RH ZW1's look the dogs danglies IMO, so i say NO !!! But if you like 'em.....
  7. Yip - and it works out well with the offsets - IIRC the Porsche reps are ET 52, so with 20mm thick adapters they are ET 32 which is handy !!
  8. Yeah, i was always more keen on all reds, don't suppose someone could photoshop 'em red but leave the reverse lights clear could they, cheers !
  9. I know what you're sayin', silver would be cool too, just love the way the outer lip shows up with black centres ......
  10. The black looks awesome, keep it like that i say !!
  11. Cheers guys, must say i've done plenty of searches and i only came across 2 rado's with 16'' RS, one was the new blue premier one in PVW. Not sure what to do with the Rear lights - to all red or red/smoke .......whatcha think
  12. Suprising what a bit of lowering, new rims, new spoiler and black badges can do !! What do you guys think, just another rado on some RS' ?
  13. Hi mate, looking good ! i love red rado's actually, alot of people don't seem to but i think they look awesome. So how long have you had it, did you buy it how it is now or did you put the momo's on??
  14. Don't think you'll find F1's in 205/50/15 . I can tell you my Conti S C 2's are very very good, bit noisy but they're 195/40/16
  15. Your RS 301's have 34 split rim bolts, usually the 2 piece ones only have 30. Should be fine if they're 34 i guess, ask niels
  16. Neverite, Mate they are still together, touring the world, i saw him in Sydney Australia and had a long chat with him in a record shop. Still got the same style, just gets better all the time !
  17. Top Buzz !! Yeah wicked !! All those i have aswell ! And can i just say Goldie Timeless. Listened to that the other day and OMG !! Incredible album
  18. Neverite, Wicked - get yourself down to 'THE END' in Llondon for Progression Sessions first Friday of every month, Bukem and guests, its always an amazing night ! Yeah Kev, Bukems early stuff was amazing too, 'Demons Theme' was a real turning point in the history of hardcore evolving into D&B
  19. kevhaywire, Old hardcore eh !! When i got my rado last year it had a tape player (still has actually cos i buy vinyl) in it and i had a shoe box full of old mix tapes from early 90's, was cool to go through them, bought back memories ! I'm also a Drum and Bass man but more on the deeper/jazz style like LTJ Bukem. Photek (from ipswich) is another favourite.
  20. gradeAfailure, I was at Shadow in Brixton too ! Mind blower !!
  21. gradeAfailure, Endtroducing is one of my favourites, go back a page here and you'll see i posted it before, Private Press is great too but it ain't the first one ! Just bought 'Lifesavas' album and 'Diplo - Florida' from Lemington whilst my C was at Stealth on Tuesday ! Both are awesome........
  22. Don't these have a lifetime garantee ?? Surely you should phone whoever you got them from, or were they on the car when you bought it ??
  23. :roll: Still got the Lumpy thing goin on i take it then, if you need a lift or me to pick stuff up or something let me know. Bit far for towing though !!
  24. Cheers mate, oops i'm taking it Tuesday actually, understandable what you're saying, i guess the age would affect them more than mileage. Probably best talk to them about which front ones to replace when i get there but if anyone has any advise would be grateful....
  25. I'm taking my C to Stealth tomorrow for a few things, including fitting my Coilovers. Now, considering my G60 has only 52k on the clock, what bushes would you guys recommend that i have replaced ?? They advised a friend of mine to do the Rear Axle and Front Wishbone Bushes with PF's. Would you not agree with this ? Going by what i've just read here the OE Rears sound a better choice, just what to replace at the front is confusing me now !!
