  1. << Sent you a text John. >> Your not making that thing twin turbo are you HHHHMMM Twin turbo consisting of two TD05 20g units assisting the breathing of a 2.5. Grant
  2. Knocklink will give a visual indication of Detonation, a very swift and efficient killer of engines AFR meter will give visual indication that the Air to Fuel Ratio is at a sufficient level. Turbocharged engines need to run slightly rich to cool the pistons down and stop them melting Turn on your PM function, click on profile and activate PM function
  3. Cheers for that incase any newbies missed it After 2 months of ownership i ceratinly know what you mean!!!!!!! Grant
  4. You may be getting the wrong impression of me. I do like the pukka JDM stuff but i only look and advise but do not touch. Fit a Knocklink and AFR meter, VERY important engine monitoring devices before fitting a Blow Off Valve, also make sure you change your oil often. Grant
  5. Turns out it was the Mother board that blew along with the RAM and Processor Andywrx I touch goats my good man Wilky explained to me the military term for nosh up, oh you guys are sooooooooooooooo funny!!!! Grant

  9. Now thats a damn good price for a top rated turbo Fai17......Go on son take that Oriental chariot up a bit in power but how do you sneak a 20g turbo into the resteraunts accounts Grant PS Love the signature John
  10. << Volk wheels - Made by a Japanese Company called Ray's Engineering. You're talking £200+ per corner on even the most basic wheels. What makes people foam at the mouth for them is usually the weight and the quality. All of the Volk rims are, to the best of my knowledge, 1 piece or 2 piece forged rims. Some of them are magnesium too. This means they are extremely light and extremely strong. As we all know - cutting down the weight of the rolling mass (wheels, tyres, brake discs) is very very good indeed. If you look at who turns to Rays for their wheels then it shows their quality I think - STI, Nismo, TRD, Ralliart, Mazda Speed. Thank you. Stephen - a man with a fetish for high quality Japanese wheels. >> All of the above info is crap if you are selling them to me. Cast Iron construction with YTS buttweld seams Prone to leaking at 20psi when the wind blows due west from the Urals Std fitment on pre 83 Skodas and posy 1913 Ladas Famed for thier heavier than the titanic weight 2nd hand they go for about £10 a corner Dont use wheel lockers as the alloy in the locker will "weld" itself to the iron in the wheel and be impossible to remove* Grant *by me at 4 in the morning, hhhhmmmm East Calder you say and the curfew will keep the neds away
  11. Best of the best mate to the point of some people even put a Volk sticker onto run of the mill alloys to give tham a bit more Kudos Stay away from the kerbs and stick an extra set of lockers on them. Grant
  12. Welcome, insert name here, to the forum Keep an eye out for the Lothian meet Without even seeing them if you think of upgrading your alloys to 17s then i will take the Volks off your hands...... Grant
  13. << >> quality mate

  15. APS is a damn fine intercooler and not a lot of them about. Both Coulty and myself have the HKS, also another damn fine cooler The Hybrid version has a fan in the form of Playsatan. Grant

  19. << >> fooking quality piccy mate oor douglas lurking in the bushes saved as desktop Grant
  20. << is it better than millport? >> Stop dissing Millport, please redirect your nasty comments in the direction of Arran I grew up going there every Glasgow fair for two glorious weeks talking to the crocodile rock Slicks on ice is a very entertaining spectacle Glad they got rid of that Desborough guy as he was a total twat of the highest order although i do miss Robbie "My mates Colin McRae" Head's invaluble insight into why Gronholm crashed his car. I love the Virtual Spectator feature and hope that is the asis for WRC 6 on the PS3 Grant
  21. Got to be the Dukes of Hazzard Go on wee man you know you want to Grant

  24.

  25. Looking to do the wireless thing on the first weekend of February or the first available Sat/Sun in Feb Plan is for you to have a look at the 2 computers and then the 2 of us head to Glasgow and purchase the correct components. You wire all said components together, configure available wireless units and then we head for nosh at Peters place. Cheers mate Grant
