the current state of UK roads is awful. completely unacceptable in may cases not only do they leave potholes to get bigger but they dont repair them properly & the hole is back within days of being 'fixed', thus making things like this happen.......& then when they do re-lay a road they have the audacity to simply throw wet tar down & then gravel on top of it, is it any wonder my bonnet looks like the night sky with god damn stone chips....grrrrrr

indeed EJ - what is the point! life is here to be enjoyed, we only get 1 chance so be as happy as you can as much of the time as you can & try not to regret i recall when i was very young, about 8 ish i think, my mom used to work for a small company & one of the directors there purchased a ferrari testarossa brand new. he had it delivered to his secure garage where it sat under a cover for many a year. he never once drove the poor thing & even at that young age i can remember saying to my mom that 'how could he just leave it sitting there & not drive it, pure sacrilege!!!' 'he brought it as an investment' my mom would say - 'what a w4nker' i would think LOL

good points well made

OUCH!!!!!!! that is painful! hopefully someone can work wonder on the rim are they 3 piece splits? might be new lip time that poor BBS

yup definitely for that money you could invest in an E30 M3 with fairly low mileage - which will truly pile on the £'s faster too

indeed we would, & smile a lot less too

during conversation about the valver yesterday my mechanic said he had indeed replaced both the O rings on the oil filter & housing as the valver is nearly ready to come back home on the road & i need my mechanic to swap my current tires onto the newly refurb'd speedline he is going to take a look whilst he has the VR

the valver had its first road test after much work yesterday all ok apart from front calipers binding a little, replacements ordered & hopefully it will be MOT time before the week is out

ha ha ha trust you eh EJ ;) lol

im not keen on the shape but holy cow im keen on the 2.53 0-62mph time!! :D

thanks - id not seen this :)

sad to see this Andy but hopefully you will be back here soon good luck fella :)

ha ha ha!!!!

nice i like it thanks for the explanation

4 if you include my gf m8 & i know she would want to bring her storm ;) also, i know of another blackberry (design380 forum name) in the area who wants to attend a meet when he has it back on the road there has to be something happening....im off for a look

indeed we are definitely increasing Jim :)

cool, not too far away then :) unfortunately the couple of good meets in my area stopped last year :( becketts farm was getting very good & the black boy in knowle normally had a good turn out let me know if you plan to attend any ha ha ha yeah they do seem to congregate round shows but if you want to see a local few your welcome to pop to mine, ive 3 if you include the gf's lol

Grinningly happy Nigel :D i really should call Paul & thank him for his hard work, for producing a cracking install & give him feedback.

hello :) another blackberry in the local area, nice :)

nice! i like your makeshift spray booth too :) do you have the polythene sectioned area ventilated? if not, do you do a 'spray & run' when working with 2 pack? lol i have helped with the prep work on camper vans many a time as my friend hires one out to the public & restores them & seeing your good work here is making me think about a similar setup once ive built my garage

i have tried to copy the update from my members gallery with all the pictures etc but the attachments needed sorting again this link http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?44751-g0ldf1ng3r-s-VR-amp-return-of-the-valver-VR-exhaust-picture-heavy-page-8/page7&highlight=g0ldf1ng3r goes to the page with the videos & then lots of images on pg8 in essence im very happy indeed :D

if you have no joy with used options give Longlife a call m8 i recently had a 2.5" system from downpipe back with sport cat fitted. 400 notes & a lifetime warranty that is for the exhaust itself so if you ever sell the warranty goes to the new owner

welcome back local too :)

new livery looks awesome :D is any of it sponsor related? (sorry it that is a daft question as normally the livery is to show sponsors) i imagine you are very glad you did the smoke test even though it threw up problems congrats on the 2 trophies from knock hill will watch the super lap day stuff later :)
