  1. if you can remove em neatly, you'll find (as we did) that when they're chopped off they will need alot of metal for cross bracing etc (but we were mounting a sports recliner which sits on top, so was easier) as the actual base of the stock seat is used for rigidity rather than just the frames, so what you get off will be weak flimsy little pieces of shit and just generally a pain in the ass, so will require welding etc etc. not the best design to work with really but you gotta deal with it in the best way you can. If you do manage to get em off in a usable condition then you will need to add s
  2. yep the original frame isnt actually a frame, its PART of the seat, only way to remove it (which we had to for my recaro) was to angle grind it apart and hack it to pieces, then try and fabricate some sort of framework (although we managed to retain all sliding actions etc as the original seat uses). its a bit of a nightmare really, you can get official frames but they aint cheap.
  3. Never said anything was wrong with em, just like the hks and blitz items personally (except the mammoth route the blitz kit takes with the piping).
  4. um, would someone elses hand fit right on if you just severed both off and tried to swap em round??? no, they wouldnt now would they, what a silly question! you'll prob need to get the hacksaw out mate, or at least be very inventive. although, anything thats come from a corsa doesn't belong on a starlet.
  5. well they'd need one hell of a payout to buy me mate, i'm high class stuff me. none of this low cost rent boy shit.
  6. want me to come round and polish it up with my tits? i'll be naked etc.
  7. you wait your turn sweet lips, i'll get round to you later.
  8. roast? also, check your junk mail, thats where the tgtt password thing usually goes.
  9. yeah bit of a pain, shame they repaired it because i would've liked to go home its still howling out so you never know, might get lucky again also, i only go that way when i go to my gf's in bedminster now, if i go straight across at the lights (through the little lane that goes through compton martin, and onto the chew valley lakes etc) it actually ends up in pensford which is right by my house, so its far quicker to get home and alot more fun hehe glad you're alright mate, might be worth checking with the electricity guys to see if you can claim, or ask a solicitor etc
  10. [quote name='dave_bristol' post='52597' date='Jan 18 2007, 12:51 PM']ok, so i was minding my own business today driving down the road next to my lane i live on, when suddenly a tree fell down in front of me, luckily i managed to stop but then the power lines came down thanks to the tree, they were hitting each other and flashing etc.. so i quickly pulled into someones drive to avoid the tree and then heard the horrible noise of scratching paint and the whipping noise on the roof as the lines came down, luckily i managed to avoid injury but my sister had a massive asthma attack and
  11. or just use some ali piping from ebay, some silicone bends from ebay aswell ans you're laughing. or go to an exhaust place and have them fab you up a kit.
  12. for a pod you'll want to go to Nomad racing mate, or ebay (cheap as chips on ebay). in regards to those gauges, they look like complete shit, but thats just my opinion. Stick with JDM manufacturers mate, mechanical JDM gauges can be had relatively cheap if you dont go for one with an electrical control unit, but definately stick with blitz/apexi/hks/defi/omori/sard etc etc (could be here for a while )
  13. by the way, i'll do you it cheaper than 350, that was an original proposed price, would be willing to do it cheaper now. other than that, the top two you've suggested are wank, look at those 90 degree bends, hahahahahaha...... the blitz is the only decent one, but it depends what you're after. im running 1bar on a stock top mount fine, and alot of japs run upto k24 kits on the stock intercooler, so an arc top mount would and should handle 200bhp just fine. obviously its gonna suffer when sat in traffic, but you aint driving quick or needing bhp in that situation, when you're hooning it round a
  14. thats alot for the gauges from japan, i presume thats off the auctions? i like going for used sets with all the sensors and gubbins etc, plus you get that jdm slagness with em
  15. mine was the same mate, when i bypassed it i gained a huge amount of torque, and some good bhp due to the increased boost (mine was boosting to around 0.8bar also). now i have a blitz access ecu i boost happily at between 0.9 and 1bar all day long, accompanied with a blitz decat and a blitz dual-sbc electronic boost controller (wow, that sounds like i have a proper blitz fetish ). now mine's permanently bypassed and controlled via the electronic boost controller (configurable within the car at the touch of a button), and i've actually removed the original boost solenoid completely as its not n
  16. ye either photobucket will sort you out or imageshack, same thing.
  17. browse ebay. browse forums. watch porn. watch family guy. everything but work basically.
  18. would look nice in black also. tin of hammerite anyone???
  19. those splitters are absolutely chuffing huge. wouldnt last 5 minutes round here, would just get ripped off on the road haha
