  1. I've found the only picture with me in it so far ;) I've browsed a few of the VAG forums that were there and noones posted any good pics yet... a few of some of the tidy golfs but nothing much else ;)
  2. I thought he meant OEM actuator too mate (for your info yash ct9 has an internal wastegate) Have you any fuelling mods to keep up with all that boost your running mate? I don't know how the EP91 ECU alarms you for "knock" (detonation) but in the GT4 it brings on the EM light to warn you the ECU is retarding the ignition. Could be that but I don't want to alarm you.
  3. I do have another camera... two others in fact, one is away with my girlfriend in amsterdam because she has lost the charger for the cam I bought her and the other one is my old skool 35mm film cam! A guy my mate knows and a coulpe of his pals turned up... one guy with his 07 plate RS4!!!! and another with an 07 plate S3 which he's already had remapped to 312bhp/320lbft
  4. I'm guessing it's the black Jam kitted Glanza with the blue lipped advans at WRC sales? Looks tasty doesn't it!
  5. It's for VAG cars (Volkswagen Audi Group) -- No pron unfortunately ;) And even more unfortunate is the fact my bro ran off with my camera earlier this week to take photo's of a flat he's selling. So unless I can run into his early before heading off, I don't think there'll be any pics ;)
  6. Just thought I'd post to see if anyone was going to VAGfest at Kames tomorrow? I'll be there ;)
  7. they're worth it -- stops you bottoming out and wrecking your shocks.
  8. Make a united colours of Benetton Glanza... like the old polo
  9. £5225 -- You guys must be binge drinking blind pill popping chain smokers!
  10. You post pics directly onto the board by encasing them in image tags ie: [img=http://theurlofyourpic.jpg]
  11. I had a RCL keyfob on my old Glanza too -- it only worked from about 3feet away from the car tho. I was going to replace the battery but I was told to watch out because taking the battery out might reset the fob... needing it to be reprogrammed! But I didn't know how to reprogram it either sorry
  12. Well I had a play around with an EOS400D and a nikon D50 at christmas -- the Nikon was more intuitive to use and fiddle with settings than the cannon. Don't know about picture quality but I'm sure they'll both be pretty good!
  13. Yeah you can get the diseasals chipped out their brain too -- sure the stage1 is 180bhp
  14. Just err on the side of caution when buying second hand too! At the least there may be dust on the CCD making for bad image quality, of course it may be genuine and may be in A1 condition!
  15. Next things on the list are to get the windows smoked a bit and the having squatting on all fours like a bitch, thinking of getting the Koni SSK for it, but noone seems to run that suspension set-up, most run cheap coilover kits with harsh springs, but since I'm looking for a bit more comfort I'll be trying to get a good spring/shocker combo.
  16. The ibiza's got a 45 litre tank (Just read the manual) What's the Glanza got? From empty I always got about 37 quid of optimax at 99p/litre so I'd say a 40 litre tank? So it means the ibiza still fairs a lot better on petrol. I've been mainly driving it off boost the last few days tho to and from my work. Hey Geo, we'll have to have you out in it. Maybe a wee run against the Glanza too

    Glossary Of Terms

    Gee I thought LSD was Lysergic acid diethylamide I had a good text file I copied from a random site once -- it had more general terms in it too that cropped up. I have an idea -- see how you can link to actual posts within a thread? Well we could have a glossary at the top (in alphabetical order) like G has already -- but each abbreviation is itself a link to a post further down the thread for instance: This links to reply 2 And where it links to has a more in depth (unless it's really straightforward) description?? note: only prob I've found so far is it links into a new windo
  18. You won't get much in the SLR category for that budget unfortunatley so you won't really need to worry about lens choices other than the ones on the cam itself.
  19. Well I never really got more than 230mi to a full tank so that equates to ~29mpg in the Glanza. The Ibiza has done 270mi on half a tank so far, so that suits me (right enough it's a bigger tank though )
  20. The extra splitter on mine is of the LCR (Leon Cupra R) it's only like £12 from a seat dealership apparently. Might look well on a starlet!
  21. Yep -- defo miss it. Miss the looks I got!
  22. Hey guys, as you know I sold the Glanza a few weeks ago -- And it's replacement is: You might recognise the scenery -- I reused the backdrops pretty much frame for frame where I took them of the Glanza. Luckily the guys on SCN didn;t know this It's a diferent beast to the Glanza altogether... More torque than you can throw a stick at so you don't have to sit up the rev range all the time! It averages about 38mpg or 32mpg if I'm pottering around town which is a lot better on petrol than my Glanza was. I bought it already modified so I'm not 100% sure on the spec but wh
  23. If your oil light comes on it pretty much means there's 0 oil pressure -- Not good!!
  24. Got any other pics of the S14a mate? I thought the sig was a bit bare -- I could probably improve on it. I tried something with the background colour to try and blend it in with both shades of the reply fields but it just stands out on both now I'll fix that too.
