wot headlamps you got? gt quads etc?

use aheat gun or hair dryer but from far away . will take long time to heat up glue on sticker but not enough to ruin paint. patience will pay off

its not a rare jap one and i agree that mesh looks shit, like a chickens house lol, yer bumper cut around intercooler as it sticks out, think im best jus to get a new bumper tbh but any cheaper ideas would be helpful?

hi i have a 95 gt with a front mount intercooler, previous owner fitted it and has cut about with it . any ideas on cleaning it up? also ideas for protecting intercooler from stones etc? cheers pictures will be helpful too .

I had that problem on my old glanza, bought a new exhaust mani gasket and when i went to fit it i found a hairline crack on the head around the mani stud . if you strip it out again be sure to look really hard for cracks on the head.. fingers crossed not tho!

not sure about price mate hav a look around piston heads etc. my old glanza cracked above the manifold stud it pissed me right off. hope you get it sold/sorted

got his double din cd player, exactly how he described it, packaged well and good communications. top boy

that is a lush colour never seen it before, where you get the 60mm springs from?

when you select reverse make sure you are completely stopped and not rolling backwards, also make sure your car is on idle, if you still have problems selecting reverse i.e. crunching then you have probably chipped reverse gear, and your other gear problems have you checked your gearbox oil level? drain the oil and use a magnet to see if there is any shrapnel in there! or you have just worn your clutch fully out and the smell is because the clutch is fighting to keep friction! hope this rambling helps!

bought a de cat off him a while back, quick delivery, does exactly what it says on the tin! trusted member

From the begining, I finished work at 10pm tonight, and decided to go straight out, to meet a few mates down the local mac d, (chav yh) where i was doing less than 5mph in about, 4th gear, bearly tick over, time now 10:07, 2 minutes later a police car comes in , and basically tells everyone to clear off. and threatens a section 59, Now as i go to drive off... the copper pulls me to one side and tells me to wait.

Here we go...

I see your number plate is not in the right location!?!?!?! and is a motor bike plate...... hang on its an import plate. and its situated blow my light. just like the new evo X and VIII have as standard! he then goes on to say it has to be central! and was going to prosecute me for being a motoring defect! i then explained the size of the plate is for an import... and obv i drive an import so all was good on the size eventually!!!!! but sill wasnt happy about the position of it! out come the cable ties and i move it to the middle how he wanted it. blocking my intercooler!

Just been on the dvla website...

"A number plate must be displayed at the front and rear of motor vehicles (with someexceptions).

l Number Plates must be easy to read and meet the British Standard.

l Lettering should be black on a white plate at the front and a yellow at the rear.

l The background surface should be reflex-reflecting but the characters must not.

Certain imported vehicles may be permitted to display number plates with smaller characters if:The vehicle does not have European Community Whole Vehicle Type Approval"

He then points out my tax disc... perfectly in date. and legal so i thought, the bottom of my disc was wedged between the glass and the dash, and not showing the bottom barcode of the disc! i was ok its minor ill move it.

Onto my tyres.... i see there toyo proxies... yerp well done u can read.. i see there all legal! of course i replyed. stolen? reciepts?! no they come with the wheels. who i got from a owners club.

Onto my blue side lights... Ok not much i could of done, but he pracitaclly accused me of using them to "act" as a police officer!!!!! he was fair with this as i only use them with my HIDS to give to blue tint. nothing else. however i had the spare bulbs in the car, so i got away with it.

then the daddy...

" we have reports of you wheel spinning, and driving dangerously!" im like ok... proof? under cover police car has reported me doing so, and has video footage! well can i see it? oo no it will be used for evidence... He then rages at me for questioning him! as i try and protest my innosense. i tried explaining to him... its now 10:09. i was sat there, in my car, foot still on the clutch. and in gear... id been there less than a minute! and they tried puttin it all on me! then went in with the cheeky line " officer do you really think im stupid enough to spend crazy amounts of money on some rubber, to lay down on mac d car park!!! these tyres cost more than the shitter of a nova, that i may like to add. had no number plate on the front!"

So i cant see the footage... ok, if you want to contest you inosense you must come to the station. we spoke on.... Now im going to issue you with a section 59. but im not as i acted carmly and basically bent over without a fuss, however you will be put on our system and will be monitored!

Now can they legally put me on the system without issueing my section 59! and if i have got 1 how do i know!? he gave me no ticket. just said i would be monitored... monitored for what exactly " your driving, number plate,"

Now if i go into the police station in the morning... and testify my innosense.... how do i know they havent reported me for anything at all, and not just trying to scare me?!!?!?!

Peace out.

1 very pissed off CraGle.

I got a section 59 for handbrake turn. they send a letter through the post. last 1yr from date shown on letter. tossers .
