gradeAfailure replied to Jim's topic in General Car Chat
Took stereo out to wire up aerial amp lead and illumination lead... Managed to catch aerial connector and break it... :oops: Think I might just leave the stereo out til I go to Maplins tomorrow and get a new connector... Will tidy wiring up too methinks... :) -
195/45 will be too small mate, you want 195/50... Looking good though, get it on the deck! :)

The quality of that paintjob is amazing... Think I might have to take a trip to Bournemouth if I ever get mine blown over...! Looks stunning as always Jay... :) -
Corrado and MK3 Golf rear axles aren't the same afaik... Dunno bout the rest, but I'm sure someone who does will be along soon! Sounds like a plan though... :) What's up with your G60 lump?

What would you do to your C if you won the euromillions?
gradeAfailure replied to steve_16v's topic in General Car Chat
Reckon we could do a CF group-buy on tickets...? Everyone chips in £1 and winnings are split equally...! Hmmm, 5000 tickets should stand us a chance of winning something... :lol: -
So, got myself a can of 10K Boost today to run it through the engine (have always run a can of it through every car I've owned and they always rev freer and idle smoother afterwards) - except that due to the MAF and various sensors before the TB, as soon as you pop the inlet hose to the TB off to spray the 10K in, the engine splutters and stalls. Anyone know a way round this?

That looks a bit mental! Welcome to the site, and what the hell is the spec on that engine...?!

Attempted to clean the car... Got as far as cleaning the wheels off the car and then ran out of daylight! Damn split rims... :roll::lol: -

Very easy... Remove 4 screws securing the clocks surround and remove, undo two screws at top left and top right of clocks, tilt clocks forward and unplug speedo cable and wiring connector, withdraw clocks from car! You may find it easier to unplug the speedo cable from below, in which case you'll need to remove the under-dash tray and reach up.

^^^^^^^^^^^ what Zip says x100!

Yep, there are about 256 possible colours IIRC. You go to the illumination setting and just scroll through them with the volume knob. You can match the button colour to the dash illumination almost perfectly 8) Really? Cool - I had a look in the manual online and it seems to think that the smaller buttons (not the main four) can only be green or amber...

If it was, that'll be Luke aka L4 PRG on here... :) -
If it was a Clio Sport 182 they have 182bhp (funny, that!) and are proper quick, on account of weighing about as much as a fart in the wind...

Looks good quality, but I'm not so sure about the tailpipe coming out at an angle - just looks a bit wrong to me!
