I felt like this yesterday, it's not great, especially not when you've just had all your mods fitted and you really want to go for a drive yet you still feel too drunk to do so! Was nearly chucking up on my driveway working on the car. Good times.

Don't be lazy Si, add your name to the list and let us know if you're up for the chickunz.

First one at Basildon Festival Leisure car park, white Glanza with HDi FMIC reg P**2 SVX. Second was a dark GT driving down the A130 onto the A127 (Southend bound?) at about 10pm. Third was another dark GT that I got a glimpse of going round Hadleigh roundabout at around 10:15pm. Fourth was one parked up in a petrol station on the A13 a silver Glanza on Borbet's or something similar? Was with a really nice looking RX7. Anyone on here guys?

Had a awesome hangover today but I had some help with working on the car so I spent most of the morning laying on my driveway pretending to help out. Anyway, took the HDI hot pipe off and took a dremel to it to roughen the edges up so that it sticks inside the hose better and doesn't pop off as easily as it did. I then put a smaller t-bolt clamp on the end of it and put 3 clips on in total. Went for a drive to see if I could get any boost as it hadn't yet been boosting properly. Put my foot down after letting it warm up and BOOOST! I was chuffed, sat there grinning away to myself. Still ne

Have to agree I think you might of gone a bit overkill with 3 different decals there if I'm honest mate. If you had a JAM rear bumper to go with it I think that could actually look quite nice.

Car looks awesome Chanelle, really liking the lights. You stole my idea for painting the clusters though.

Lovely example, got a very similar number plate to you too, only two numbers are different.

I'm assuming that since the lights are a completely different shape the answer would be no, and if it did it would be an incredibly shonky fit. Chanelle did the whole front end, glanza bonnet, lights and front bumper,

1) Joe-EP91 (Glanza V) 2) JAG (V Machine) 3) Bildo (V) 4) 5) 6) 7) 9) 10) It will have to be a few weeks after JAE for me, I'd preferably like to have my new clutch and mapping done by this time, neither of which come cheap!

Really like that, looks like a clean example, except the wheels are far too big in my opinion. Get yourself a nice set of light 15's and you'll notice a world of difference with handling and acceleration. Welcome aboard though, seem to be quite a few girls coming in lately.

Few pics from when I took it for a drive tonight: Me putting the hose back on!

3? Blimey lol. I'm using Mikalor clamps which are a lot thicker and stronger, the only issue was that where it seems to tighten them all perfectly it was just the HDi one where both ends were touching and it couldn't be tightened anymore. It was down to the clip being too big I'm sure so I've got a smaller one to put on. I'll then run it and see how that goes, worst case scenario I might add another clip onto it mate, thanks for the advice. Don't really want them popping off all the time, it's annoying having to try and fix it on the roadside!

Thanks Chanelle yours is looking great too, hopefully see you at Medstone.

Haha, that's the interesting part bud. Basically all the pipes connected brilliantly to the WEPR piping however the part that goes to the HDi one went on far too easily and I knew I had an issue. I did the clamps I had with it up as tight as possible but as soon as I went on boost for the first time I got to .5 bar and it popped off, so I tried to make it a bit tigher but I went on boost and it came off again. I ran off boost for the rest of my journey. Tomorrow I'll be putting a smaller clamp on, roughing up the edges of the hose and the piping to hopefully make it not slide off so easily.

Thanks guys! I had never been too fussed about the look of my bay, I liked to keep it discreet but I've got a couple of bits to show off now. I still don't like to be loud and colourful, which is basically why I got the black silicone hoses and braided hosing etc. I might take pride in the bay now and get the cover painted and stuff to make it look a bit better, I think the dark and chrome theme kinda works! As for the WEPR FMIC, my core isn't from the WEPR kit, but the piping itself is amazing quality, it's nice and shiny, has really good lips on each pipe and the welds are fantastic. The

Thanks a lot bro, means loads to me, it's always nice to hear positive things and I'm delighted with the look of it. When are you planning to have that done man? If you're going for a near identical build let me know and I'll tell you all the difficulties I had so we can make it as smooth as possible for ya.

I'm no pro and my camera isn't the greatest but we met up tonight having done a load of stuff to our cars lately and decided to go for a drive, here's some pics for you all.

Good man, looking forward to it!

Right guys, another update! Got up at 8am this morning and went straight to work on the car, work was pissing me off too much this week and I really wanted the car finished, so it worked out nicely. Started off by fitting the HDi hot pipe properly for the first time in attempt to cure my issues, and realised that the WEPR piping and HDi wern't matching up perfectly. Decided on a few methods and basically ended up putting a bit of force in and bending the pipe slightly (no damage was caused) to fit onto it nicely. Trimmed a bit off both pipes and it all popped together! Didn't have any iss

I had three issues with the WEPR hot pipe, I think it might be something to do with the location of the tong turbo, I was told it might need rotating. It could however of been the decat or mani. Here's the issues I had though: Bonnet wouldn't shut when fitted where it was meant to be. No room for an air filter relocation. Pipe was sitting heavily against the rad so any movement in the engine would've meant rubbing on the pipe or rad, not great! Apart from that it was a really nice fit everywhere else. Anyway, my solution arrived this morning from Idrees, I fitted a HDi hot pipe and now ever

Amazed at how quickly you guys get everything done it's looking really good. Looks like a few of us will have something to show off at the next Medstone now!

Sounds like he has too much money to burn. For the amount he's spending on those kind of conversions you could really be doing something a lot more exciting. RS Turbo lump in a MK4 is a bit meh, personally. It'll set him back a few grand too I assume?

Pretty nice ZS there. The 1.7 engines are boring as hell though, even the FRP was massively underpowered considering what it was meant to be.

50 foot of the stuff is more than enough for the mani and decat mate. I've still got a decent amount of roll left over but it's better to buy too much than too little, eh!

I remember Clarkson saying in the episode '... until the new series in November' in one part. I doubt it's the end, but I am really confused about the whole seriousness and depressing ending, it's left me a bit worried about things. I can only assume he's talking about supercars, didn't he basically say about the whole eco shit? Perhaps they're putting restrictions in place to make it near-impossible to build a supercar or something silly? God knows, I don't trust this Government one bit.
