  6. I quite like the white bonnet on a black car.
  7. Spot on dude!! How much she cost ya if i may ask? Thinkin of a van myself atm as i subby to a guy who lets me run in one of his but its got his name on it when i could have mine on my own lol

  11. Not sure but i did 90quid in fuel from glasgow to southampton razzin it the whole way in mine when i bought it haha not bad when you consider its a short ratio box in the ep*5's some one buy this mikes a legend and the cars perfect for fun in the current state or perfect for a turbo'ed grip whore!!
  12. Depends if you where to drive it home or ship it over. You may need to look into if tax and duty would need to be added is a shame mike but a very clean bargin for some one.
  13. Ah dont get me wrong boys was 3yrs of day release then a yr building a portfolio of work samples and also the 2391 testing course lol so i dont mean go to college full time. what i mean is do a part time college course while you have a job on the side and go from there. But defo train through college not a "reskill" company. as for apprentiships good luck as alot of firms dont take them due to ressesion etc etc. i started as a sparkys mate doing shop refurb work but its not the most reliable as your self employed and untill you have a big network of contacts you can spend days weeks or months
  14. As a rough guide phill qulifing as a sparky cost me around 5-5.5k its not cheap if your over the age of free education. but that was over 4yrs. If your looking at tiling, plastering etc they are far cheaper but trades that are regulated by laws and guide lines are genrealy alot more expensive and take far longer to qualifiy in. it depends on the trade your thinkong off tbh. makes me wish id gone straight from school into it but i didnt start till i was around 20 (im 27 now)
  15. Yea all counts any skilled/trade/food/inspection or manual etc. got some skilled lads in this club tbh. @uberphill88 dont use skill trade companys they are genraly fround apon buy skilled lads in my experience. got back to college if you fancey retraining tbh. i know 40yr old guys at college retraining as sparkys and plumbers etc. is expensive but atleast you get the proper qualification. skill train companies will charge money for short express courses that mean people are less likely to tack you on Also forgot to add my bro deebo who comes to all the shows and is often on here reading up
  16. Just curious what tradesmen we have on the forum realy. Im a sparky and currently testing a massive comercial site but tend to work in both comercial and domestic sites testing and installing. Any one else? Domestic or commercial trades?
  17. Truley insane!! Cant wait to see graphs and strip times
  18. Seriously clean car mate. Dont sell up, just man up! Forge it, map it and enjoy 270-280 on the td04.
  19. My self non but few mates with small lizzards, cousin had a bearded dragon for a bit. one of my best mates has a corn snake and another mate had two boha's a 6ft male and an 8 1/2 foot female bloody huge they where!!!
  20. No worries dude ;) And rob twins with yellow stuffs on grooved discs will defo stop you very well no worries there. would stop you at td04 1.4 bar
  21. Tte looks much better than a v spoiler imo. Tidy looking starlet mate.
  22. Yep grant maybe able to confirm if its .5 for sure but either way it needs to fit snug to the hub as the centre bore is 60 iirc on the astra disc so it wont centre using that. you could have a small filler coller made to sit in the gap of the centre bore but tbh i never bothered. once the disc is turned its nice and centred anyhow. Ebc yellows are around 95 Gt or levin calipers are 60-160 Discs 50-130 depends how lucky you are sourcing the calipers and what sort of disc and pad you run tbh. could do it for under 200quid if you just want bigger standard style brakes and find good calipers at
  23. Lol true. Its the astra set up you want rob and its the most direct you will get. spacers behind the disc are a tad dodgey imo. the astra setup means no spacers or arsing around with studs.
  24. The set up we are discussing does not reqire longer studs or a spacer plate to run just minor milling of the disc hub. the setup in the link is far more hassle imo. ill load pics to make this clearer if i get a chance. this is a much better disc choice an used also by gt phayer and cazzac. a 25x280 astra disc can also be used but the disc needs milling to 260 to work aswell as the bell housing milling mildly. astra discs are a much better setup.
