  1. HI, i have been talkin to a few friends about organising a big cruise in the summer with a few different sites. One of my mates is a member on scoobynet, and the other is on sxoc and we thought it would be class to organise a big cruise up the north coast. Meetin in different places on the way. Mainly starting in larne and driving up the entire coast and ending up at portrush/portstewart. Another thing i thought would be good is when we get up around there, we could all meet on benone beach, (depending who would be happy enough drivin their car on sand) since it is huge we could get any amount
  2. Have to say i love the whole old skool american movies for the HUUGE slides everycar gets lol. Ones that spring to mind are smokey an the bandit vanishing point cannonball run gumball rally french connection and we cannot forget the blues brothers lol. In the guiness book of records for most crashed/written off cars lol. still enjoy all the others, if it has any kind of car chase, i'll be interested lol.
  3. cheers man, yeah i have been busy doin all that lol. Hence i haven't been on here much, kinda been drowning my sorrows as well, out partying loads lol. which cinema did yuor bro see me at? the oddessy just before christmas was it? i'll deffo have to get my arse into gear an get a run up to your area once i get the injectors an pump in mate. Mini shoot of some description lol.
  4. mate what blow off valve, if any, are you using? i love the noise that your car makes when you shut off! sounds awesome lol!!
  5. well i haven't been on here in bloody ages, so i thiought its time for a re-post lol i went to compete in the second quarter mile last year to try an beat my previous time of 13.7 @ 113mph, i had got that time with all interior, spare wheel, boot full of crap and over half a tank of fuel so for this event i had her totally stripped out, nothing in it at all an set up for boost to come in harder and earlier. but when we arrived it was pissin it down, standing water ALL over the track. Did 1 proper run an got 15.1 @ 102 mph but i have to admit it was scary, lol, spun the whole way into 4th an
  6. think mine was the rota 15's with the toyo tyres, the day after i got it lol
  7. man those are class pics!!! my sister an bro in law emigrated out there last year, well not dubai, they moved to Bahrain then have since moved to Quatar an they love it out there. 13Pence for super unleaded!!!!!!!!!!!! That fills the tank of a Lambo for about £15 max i reckon lol. I should be goin out to see them in April sometime so will have to get pics up then too, i can't wait for some dune bashing in the jeeps! And we are gonna rent quads for it too, should be class. Glad you had a good holiday man, looked amazing!
  8. we were changing the heater matrix so the dash had to be dropped down to get at it. hateful job lol. love the colour myself, gonna get the font end all sprayed up an keep her mint. lol
  9. yeah mate, is a shitter that i can't make it to JAE but i will be there in a mates car, and my new aim is to get her to ten of the best, wont be for a couple of years, but i will get her there! lol oh aye phill, will have to call over to the stand at JAE to say hello an have a few beers man! catch up from last year lol
  10. right, slight problems have occured so she wont be at JAE, but she is stayin in my possesion, goin the whole way. forgies, diff, brakes, clutch, ecu, etc etc. just need to get money first lol.
  11. yeah its depressing me as well thinkin of selling it, but these things have gotta be done at some stage. Although, i'm startin to have second thoughts, lol, i might just say feck it and go the whole hog, forged engine, diff, big brakes, paddle clutch, etc, etc. Still dunno what to be at. But she will def be attending JAE unless there is any problems.
  12. right, peoples, i'm feelin very ill at the minute, cause i'm thinkin of selling up. Reason being, i can insure a whole shed load of bigger cars and would like to own a few before its house time. Will kill me to sell if i do, but it has to happen sometime, i have spent a total of £5000 on parts alone in the last year, then add on labour, plus the days worth of work jay has put in and myself. Also since its a rare colour it makes it quite unique, especially over in N. Ireland. Looking for offers around the £4.5 mark, but could be negotiable so if there is any interest then drop
  13. mint wee car this, good progress! i see this all the time floating about bangor, real nice example. keep it up!
  14. well for the mean time it has a fuel pressure regulator and an sti fuel pump so it is set very rich so it will run on full boost safely, but bigger injectors are on the way an will get some sort of air/fuel controller will also be fitted.
  15. well i wouldn't mind. but at the same time, i don't mind giving it a blast for 14-14 secs at a time, but not sure bout round the track a good few times before the brakes are changed and the rebuild is done. A track day is hellish abuse on a car lol.
  16. no chance, i prefer to get invloved and compete for UKSCNI rather than sit around an talk the talk!!!! lol ;) :P

  19. Well time to update, got the car back on saturday night and went to bishopscourt on sunday to have a go at the quarter mile. Best run i got a 13.77 sec @ 113mph. pretty happy with that, badly need a diff though lol. The boost controller is now in and there is an sti fuel pump from an impreza as well. So before the next one i'll try to get anti-lift plates and a bloody DIFF!!!!! lol
  20. lol, oh yeah, tryin my best to do us all proud lol. the best thing was the look on their faces at the next lights, didn't even look in my direction or even at each other, it was priceless!! the guy working on it is really good at custom stuff, very neat and knows what is best for every different car. can't wait till she is finished now.
  21. turbo is back an fitted. the air filter is now moved to behind the front bumper, and all pipes connected to the turbo had to be custom made. Basically cause they were all too small lol. just got the car back to have over easter, then after easter the rest of the boost controller is going in, and the bigger fuel pump is getting fitted. but the way it goes now, well all i can say is MY GOD!!!!!!! where has this turbo been all my life! lol, AET have made a class job of it, spools up at 2200rpm, and cause the air filter is behind the bumper it creates real loud induction noises! Already had 2 race
  22. turbo has just arrived back, basically everything is new!! first spec of this state AET turbos has ever done. should be interesting i think. compared it to a standard one he had sitting, and the inlet bits are a lot bigger. the wepr intercooler pipe has to be cut and a larger joiningbit put on. not long now!!
