Great night guys and gals

Seconded Thanks everyone for coming along! Excellent evening.

There's a number of us heading up to Liecester for the SIDC Christmas party that weekend as well so we'll likely be a bit thin on the ground.

There's some gremlins in the system - we tried water but that made more of them and was a bit scary around all that electrickery so we're hatching another plan - we're hoping to have everything sorted soon though

On my mobile so cant post images/video but have a look at this DIY Lamborghini Reventon from China... http://www.gtspirit.com/2012/11/14/overkill-lamborghini-reventon-replica-built-by-chinese-farmer/

which ofcourse was not mine

reg number was EA61 EDD

as in eddie the eagle, and just put edwards for a laugh.

come on chaps, im not a school boy

Doh! Lol

soz i probably didnt explain it very well, i was going to keep standard intake which is just behind offside headlight, this leads through into the air filter box just behind. i was going to change the part where it goes from the air filter box up into an empty air box which leads into the throttle body. it does have a sensor just after the filter box so i would go from after that and just use a bit of flexible tubing to loop around and into the throttle body, replacing the empty box.

hope that made more sense

Yes, makes sense. The sensor is the air intake temp sensor. I can't see it making much difference if the standard filter is in or otherwise but personally I would want the filter as close as possible to the intake manifold being as you've had years of crap building up in the intake before the existing filter.

You can replace the whole system with an induction kit but to be honest, they run better with a standard air box - it'll be sucking in warm air if the intake is in the middle of the engine bay.

Nah lads this is Chris - eh Chris, get that moth eaten wallet out chap

Ha ha! Like that'll happen

Worst possible thing to happen to Star Wars. Disney! Really?!? You've all see what they've done to Pixar and that's cartoons!

Okay so there is likely to be more Starwars episodes but at what cost?

I thought you'd have an idea will collect motor and pop over one night mate

Just the coffee for me these days mate but yeah, sounds a plan

I want the AWD for the winter lol! How about jacking it up?

Springs and struts from a Fozzy with new camber bolts will do the job. That's the route I was looking at before I lowered mine instead lol

can you fit a turbo on a '98 GL 2.0L?

Only if you replace the engine with a turbo lump, a new box, brakes, suspension... more fun making it rwd imho

whoop whoop! I like that badge

4 tanks!! Jesus mate.... you need a diesel! Or to move

maybe both

Why I............

How is TG coming along Stu? Do I get a badge soon lol!

Hopefully Scally will be ready for Saturday, just got to get 12 months MOT

And the beemer ------ well, it's not seen the pumps for 5 weeks now lol! 530 miles and still 80 in the tank

Not sure if I've already mentioned it but Sons of Anarchy is a damn good show!

Seconded

Oh no...... whatever that was i missed it!

Posted surname and registration

Yup! But..Prob not for a while now, swapped for winter!

I'm guessing then that you've the same p1 that used to pass me around 5:45ish towards the speed camera on the hendred road towards didcot then?

They live in East Hendred, I pass it on my way to work. There's a silver classic that parks opposite too.

Glad you got it sorted mate. I know only too well how bad it can be when a bonnet pops up at speed.

18 months ago I had the scoob in for a respray on the bumper. I didn't know at the time but they had popped the bonnet looking for the paint code and not shut it properly... Pulled onto a dual carriageway and as I was overtaking in the outside lane around "70ish" the bonnet came up - I hit the Armco, span 360 in front of the car I was passing, hit the curb, bounced up and was less than a foot from a 15m drop when I came to a stop. Suffice to say I was bloody lucky!

How come you got a small grey one

My one's blue and is imitating a sun strip!!

The blue ones were sent out to all members for free as a thank you. The black/grey ones are being sent out with new memberships/renewals.

Have mine on the rear of the sideskirts - after years with them getting battered on the rear side windows I'm much happier with their placement now

Matthew aged 48 and 9 months

Really?!? That puts you within months of being the same age as my dad dude... I thought you were late 30s?!?

is everyone else is happy to have an auction/raffle again next year

Without a doubt we are, surely it goes without saying
