So got the bars fitted http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z330/dazzler74/build%20progress/20140405_115745_zpsrzoqah1j.jpg http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z330/dazzler74/build%20progress/20140405_115717_zpskfroqohy.jpg I think i like them :-? :-? Looking good mate look forward to seeing the new ...

iirc they are 20".
you can get them to fit but the ride will be awful due to such a low profile tyre.
And the chance of damaging/bending/cracking them because of such a small profile is greatly increased

So looking through the items for sale list, something caught my eye. But payday was a few days away. So a few messages exchanged, and a few days later met up with "IMR" and got these... http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/z330/dazzler74/build%20progress/20140401_191444_zps8tdr6za0.jpg Now ...

Now normally I would do my own servicing, but an offer with a local garage was to good to refuse. Oil and filter, air con check and general once over for £30. Thought it was daft to it turn down. All was good apart from the scan. Showed up Intermitant fault between cts and instruments, but i knew t...

ebay or scrap yard, failing that strip and polish your own and buy the end caps from tps.

In my experience nearly all aftermarket body kits will require a bit more work than just fitting and painting. More expensive doesn't always mean better

thank you for the help, guidance truely appreciated

might just hold you to that Adam

welcome along. there are a few guy's down your way, connor,scooterboy and bryantpassat. im just up the road in Southampton along with a couple of others. have a look down at the meets section, we have a monthly meet in Winchester, a lot of the guy's who come know these cars inside out, and are alway...

Thanks Carl,

Just one more thing...... has anyone got a small pair of hands I can borrow, dont think my fat fingers will fit...

thanks for the quick replies,

There are no rattles or clunks on starting or when running, as said car runs fine..

From what you have written Dave, it seems to be a sensor,
Will get out there and have a look at the tensioner though.

Good morning all, Have searched this section to no avail, but hoping someone can help.. Had the car scanned after a recent service, and have a couple of codes thrown up. Car is a 2.0 130 ALT 1, Intermitant signal between cts and instruments. So thats easy, we all know that one.... 2, P1519 Camshaft ...

So once again it's been ages since i've posted. Reasons being ...im still skint :roll: But what has happened is... New mot. Actually thought it was due in December, but the wife went to renew my tax end of November but the screen kept saying, "can't find mot". Quick look at the paperwork a...

You mean heat shrink? The plastic cover you melt over joints in electrical wires?

There are always good stories from our meets. For any newbies reading this thread, I suggest you get yourselves along to one of our meets. There is nothing to be scared of. Cars in every guise, from sheds to show cars b3's ,5's and 6's, loons to wagon's. from reading this you will notice the same na...

As i said the other day, as long as you wont get emmbarrassed about being in my car"

Bulb blown?

only 2 quid at my local auto factors, needless to say i brought one

If you used the search window you would see this has been covered a bucket load of times. Carl aka Desertstorm did a pretty indepth trial with surprising results. The standard filter is pretty much the best option to go for. Branded panel filters are 10x the price for maybe 1-2 extra horse's Same st...

Im in Southampton.
Dont have vag com, but my code reader clears lights.

Or come along to the winchester meet tonight, someone may have thier laptop with them.

Your asking about a car all ready on your "in stock list"

Dont forget once your done to get the tracking sorted. You'll be eating tyres otherwise

Do you need them to say Samco on them?

If not try someone like Hyphose.
Exactly the same stuff without the name and a fraction of the priceThey do more combinations of hose than you can shake a stick at.

I was always taught to put the leads on earth first the live. Run the car thats doing the jumping for ten minutes . Then try the to start the flat car. This is because some cars have an anti shunt diode on the back of the alternator. If this gets fried it wont charge the battery. And will cost you a...
