  1. yeah, ill keep the rpf's. keep em as track wheels and put some sticky rubber on them. the only way id sell them is if they dont fit behind my brakes... which im not sure they will ;[
  2. not yet mate. swapping out the subframe is a massive job. exhaust/propshaft/hubs/diff, everything at the back of the car has to pretty much be removed. that, coupled with the fact that i do not drive it anywhere near hard enough during winter to need all those bits (its a fucking handful in the dry, let alone in wet). i also hate working on cars in the cold/wet. im a fair-weather mechanic ill wait till the tax runs out in Jan, SORN it and fit all the stuff on it. give it a nice little overhaul etc.
  3. always good to see old members come back. how do.
  4. havent updated this in a while, as ive been lazy and havent done anything ^^ a series of events occured, and i somehow ended up buying a set of these... Ray's Engineering GramLights 57 Optimise's 18 x 8.5J
  5. somebody (no names mentioned), stole Steve's banner and used it as firewood. we was not happy about it.

  9. i think theres a little crack by the number plate mate.
  10. dont count your chickens yet. might be something simple
  11. yup, thats where im trying to point the discussion. im sure itll be something to do with the fly/converter.
  12. there is nothing that stops the crank from spinning due to sensors etc. i have a few suggestions though. did you use the torque converter with the proper flywheel when you fitted the autobox? is the cam timing done properly?
  13. Rob, are we still cool with the TC add on thing? i may have a word with John and threaten him with sex if he doesnt allow us to be close again. although, i thought our pitch this year was close enough, but not close enough to encroach on the uksc. id we could have similar pitches again it would be epic.
  14. earthing. you havent done it properly. stick a jump lead on the negative of the battery and then only the block. i bet it starts. if that isnt it and it wont even turn by hand... then youll have to pull the motor and see what it is. have you done anything to the bottom end on the 5e? rebuilt it or anything?
  15. jag, if riko cleaned the dirt of his car, i actually think it would fall apart.
