Rog those pics are great to see! truly industrial sized engineering thank you :)

happy to help :) FYI i have also used it on the tops of my door rubbers when the weather is very cold - it helps stop the doors freezing shut

that they do Rog BUT there is also a very good alternative via ebay for £7 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Liqui-Moly-Silicone-Grease-100g-3312-/221336236084 i got some on recommendation from Kev Beercan a while back ;)

Hi m8 Could you please chase up the quote for me? I have received those from HIC & Chris Knott but not from Prestige Thanks

welcome! you have found the right place as there is loads of useful info here & even more helpful members :)

there was a group buy with some advanced aero stuff on here a while ago mine is still waiting to fit

i had a C64 and an amiga 500 - the latter of which is in my parents loft along with boxes of hundreds of games! i thinkn about setting it up now & then but think my old quickshot joysticks are broken & im unsure where to get a replacement (maybe i could just swap the microswitch like we used to lol) IIRC the C64 came with Zaxxon which was a very erly shoot em up agree Lemmings was superb Wullie! i had a christmas special version where they were all wearing little santa outfits & the background was all fairy lights & snowmen etc personal amiga favourite/s were: super cars 2 mega-lo-mania monkey island 1 & 2 damn it im gona have to go up in the parents loft very soon!

will do :) & yes thank you the forum is stated at the top of the document

very kind of you to make a point of stating such Dougie :D

I have located the document i completed last year & have amended it & sent it to [email protected], who was the person who sent me the quote last year, and also [email protected].

Hi Martin I have forwarded you the quotation document via email again. Look forward to your help

welcome why would your rado ownership come to an end so soon after joining us on here?

indeed i agree. also, when you bear in mind it is a custom fabrication on the car rather than an 'out the box' solution & the fact Paul spent 7.5 hours doing so to ensure optimum results i think it gives good VFM i recall the powerflow system i had installed on my 16v many years ago took about 3.5 hours BMC to fabricate & cost me £300 but that is 1990 & thus pre-cat. fortunately it was still present when i brought the valver back last year :)

ha ha ha thanks, it duly raised a smile!

Hi Martin Just a quick note to let you know that i have emailed HIC with view to submitting the document for a quotation for my VR6

Hi Tim Just a quick note to let you know that i have emailed Prestige with view to submitting the document for a quotation for my VR6

hi chuggs my total cost including the sports cat was £334 ex vat & thus £400 INC vat i will update this thread & my build thread with pics & hopefully some videos next week. plus i should soon be able judge the sound it is producing properly as Paul said it will soften up once used for a week or so, which i will also duly report on i must say though that at present i am very happy indeed with it!!

why thank you :D tell us anyway m8....its not a competition ;) lol

winner, winner, chicken dinner

crackalacking! cool, drop me a PM with details once you have had time top remove it :)

YEEE-HAAAAAA!!! well, after a long day in birmingham yesterday i am pleased to say my shiny new longlife stainless exhaust from downpipe back with a sport cat & a gorgeous oval tail pipe is happily sat in place :D my initial report is concerning how much attention & pride in work Paul took in fitting the system. he had not previously fabricated a longlife exhaust on a VR & he seemed to enjoy the challenge & relished producing a very high standard of a final result. my VR is lowered & that presented him with a few challenges routing the pipework into optimum positioning, which he overcame nicely he was also very complimentary about the car & said he has a friend who is a rado addict & has a G60 & a 16V IIRC lol i have taken some pics of the during stage but have yet to take some of the end result, i hope to do so this weekend. as such i will post them next week along with a report of my feelings on noise levels, performance, mpg changes etc etc it was also nice to hear that unlike most places longlife do not require you to take your car back for an exhaust inspection each year so as to keep the warranty intact & that i can just give him a call if any issues arise. as well as this Paul said that if i find the noise level to be higher than i desired, we had discussed prior to install that due to the mod's & BMC on my VR i didnt want the exhaust to overpower or drown out the superb engine noise i get, i can just give him a call & he will order in a short silencer to put in there so, in short, initial reports are all glowing :)

Thanks for the update Goldie! am i right that you have said the seat base up/down height handle is ok :) (i wish i knew the correct terminology lol) if so how much would you like including postage & could i please have the screws which hold it in place as well? thanks muchly

tidy thanks goldie :)

Excellent :) The time certainly flew by! I did try to attend some local meets at teh end of summer but unfortunately the black boy meet in knowle got cancelled due to insurance reasons & the moat house meet in alcester was in between locations as the pub closed. I also sold my apartment & brought a house so that took up pretty much from may until december im glad you are having fun with your blackbery, even if it has ended up as more of a project. however, with the work so far im sure you will end up with a stunning example i will indeed let you know once the system is fabricated & installed tomorrow. i think i may be acting a forum guinea pig for longlife as exhaust solutions as scarce at present & it might produce a group buy or discount etc for others on here. a blast & car chat etc sounds great Paul! ive got my hands full over the next few weeks as im boarding out my outhouse & also knocking my dining room through with my kitchen but if you could drop me a PM about your paint please include your mobile & i will get in touch so we can arrange something :)
