  1. i seem to remember seeing a modded mk2 with tvr style buttons under the mirrors at ed38 last year, was interesting however if you run out of battery you have problems!!
  2. im getting this at the weekend i cannot wait, it looks insane!
  3. any one have any idea very roughly how heavy one of these seats might be? thanks
  4. if was to sell it as is do you recon its worth putting 12months MOT on or just letting it go, it has 2 months left???
  5. no no i was fine, it happened at about 5mph!! and it was one of those ones where you see it happening but there is nothing you can do!! i assume ur commenting on the nice rusty tailpipe there!! haha yeah ive stripped the car of the seats, wheels,suspension, exhuats etc etc to build up some cash for a new one so all the originals r back on. i was devastated but come to terms with it now and in a way its ok cos ive wanted a project and now i have an excuse to get me one
  6. Right my C has been driven into and is now a Cat C. jus looking to see how much its worth out on the market please. its is completely sound, the accident has not damaged the car in anyway other than aesthetically. It has FSH recent cambelt 115k toad alarm and immobiliser all electrics are good except the sun roof Thanks a lot guys
  7. easy now didnt realise the youtube video embed code wouldnt work!
  8. http://www.fineartmodels.com/pages/prod ... t_area=139 you tube link for bigger video this is insane
  9. yeah ive read up on them on here, its not a 5minute job but i found enough info with a few searches
  10. thanks repair kit ordered, great success!
  11. my driver side door handle is now broken. how do i change these for some other ones and can the locks be swapped aswell or will i then always need two keys? thanks
  12. so does this mean maybe the pump overheated? Or maybe airlocked?
  13. it had about 6 quids worth in it as i had just put that in
  14. i was going round a round about yesterday when it felt like the car miss fired, no bang or anything just skipped a beat and now the fuel pump is very loud and it did the same thing again a few miles down the road(just had a power loss for a second) ? any ideas?
  15. played with some ignition wires and now all appears to be ok! thanks guys
  16. sorry yeah i did turn the key and wiggle it but nothing happened
  17. no its is like it is immobilised? there is no sound from the solenoid or starter motor at all. there was no problems before they fuel pipe burst, it wouldnt have damaged the car at all would it? might just try push starting it and see what happens?? :? :?
  18. 2 weeks ago a fuel pipe burst and my car has been sat until i got the part i just fitted it now and when i try to start the car i get nothing, like it is imobalised? the lights work etc but nothing to turn the engine over i noticed that my oil light is flashing does this have anything to do with it? a saftey feature or someting, there is oil in the car. thanks
  19. i would just love to roll up next to sum jap car and just see his devastated face when i smash him in a 1930's car haha, its worth it just for the smile factor!!
  20. hmmm------- wood painted alloy wheels Then bam something caught my eye you know what this is.......the cosworth YB 0-60 in sub 5seconds, race on! and a monster video!
  21. Basically i am an undergraduate Automotive engineer studying in my 3rd year of my 4 year Masters course at Loughborough university. i have a keen interest (not unlike you all on here) in fabrication, restoration, power and performance! i am looking for an engineering related placement or something along the lines of fabrication and restoration (as that is ultimately what i want to get into) to help me get some experience under my belt before i graduate. If anyone here knows of any companies near them or can recomend anywhere to me i would really appreciate it Many thanks
  22. im replacing a bit of fuel hose as it got a bit hot when i tried to cut my exhaust off but when i replaced it the hose i used couldnt handle the pressure so burst so i was wondering what pressure hose i need to purchase? thanks
  23. personally that seems expensive as i lookend into 1.8t costs but i didnt do it some may be mistaken
  24. yeah i need to get the back down but its rubbing so until i get the arches rolled i have put those spring separators in to keep the spring more open. not having driven another rado other than this one with its standard wheels i am not really going to give a good comparison but to me the change from standard wheels to these was awesome and the eagle f1's are mint dry or wet
