  1. Either does it for me (not much help am I)
  2. I reckon TWAS should unleash his text spk on the nation
  3. Think my girlfriend may have seen a wr1 on bluebell hill on sunday. Apparantly it was "a funny colour and trying to get in her boot".
  4. Dont worry, you can buy them for £1.99 Bloody cheapskate
  5. Dont PPG boxes keep your existing 5th gear? What happens if that goes into meltdown, or is 5th pretty much unbreakable. And I think they whine quite a bit, and with your rattling engine rebuild there could be some strange noises coming from your car!
  6. So does it only happen in 5th? 2700 is just when you are starting to boost, but if its that i would have thought you would get it in every gear. My 2003 wrx makes a whooshing noise from about 2000rpm up to when the turbo kicks in, then it seems to disappear. Loads of things can cause a whine, such as wind getting into the cabin and even the tyres.
  7. Do big rubber mats for playgrounds. I used to know someone who worked there, just wondered if it was still going.
  8. Do any of you Eurolink guys know if Island Leisure is still there? (sorry its a bit off topic)
  9. I remember that, hadnt noticed it was gone but I only seemed to get it at speed in the outside lane. I get the feeling the new layer they have put down wont last long.
  10. Its all good news on here!
  11. Hello mate and welcome
  12. Had a drive around the place the other week (glutton for punishment) and im sorry to report its not bad. There is a load of unspoilt land, loads of fields and even a partial rally track that leads to the harty ferry pub. If the hell hole that is leysdown is your only experience of the island you may be surprised. But big rob is right, they are all mutants
  13. As i was driving in to maidstone today i noticed the electronic sign type thing that normally has invaluble info such as "warning - fog" when you can hardly see the sign through the fog was displaying a "pothole hotline". Sorry, i didnt get the number as i was going to type into my mobile but realised that is illegal, so i went for the notepad and pen but realised that would be illegal too, I was going to stop but i think the road is a clearway so that would have been illegal too.
  14. Pure filth
  15. Hello mate and welcome, I would be giving you the thumbs up sign but for some reason i cant use the emoticons while at work. Good looking car and nice colour, although im afraid to say silver is the fastest colour.
  16. 80ft?! Thats a lot more than i thought. Im thinking i will be needing about 150ft+ for the headers then.
  17. Nope, that didnt work either, but you know what i mean!
  18. I didnt get past, ok lets try w***el rotary engine. Am i going to get a warning for circumventing the censor?
  19. Litreage, i like it! The Rx's are all ****els (if that gets past the censor) and work differently. Agree on the big "muscle" cars, totally under engineered just because they think bigger is better. They should give one of their engines to the japanese, get genuine BIG hp then. Mind you, there is that 2000hp mustang on you tube, but it has got a house-sized turbo on it.
  20. Come to think of it were they 1.3? I think it was the rs turbo that was 1.4. What did you do to that sort of power from such a small engine? Run it on kerosene?!
  21. LEAVE THE BLOODY THING ALONE!!!!!
  22. Blimey mate, you look a bit young to be driving!
  23. I would be interested to see what response you get from the petrol stations when you ask them to go through hours of cctv footage. My guess would be not good. But its worth a go, I really hope your friend resolves this, its an absolutely horrible situation and she has my sympathy, but the (very) depressing truth is this sort of crime usually DOES pay.
  24. You could get one for a grand, quick for a 1.4. Made out of used washing up bottles and sticky back plastic, apart from the chassis which was made of bent coat hangers and chewing gum. My brother made the mistake of crashing its predecessor, the gordini turbo, into a tree, when it became painfully obvious it was made entirely of rust and bird poo.
  25. Except to pass through it on your way to sheppey.
