I quite like my aem boost controller, and it's a gauge as well. Not badly priced either.

bit late buddy but hope you had a good bday yesterday

Dave's engine was one that was I could have potentially bought, if he had been radged, I doubt that he would have even offered to sell it at all, let alone to me who would be doing a long trip and would most likely find any problems with it. Just my 2p. And any slight hiccups with any deals I've done with Dave he's sorted out no problems.

I soaked the lense in white spirits, total immersion. Then left it to eat at the glue a little, (it also eats the paint so deffo will need to respray the silver inside part. Then took the hair dryer and worked the glue out with a small screw driver. The lense slides out forward from the housing if you image it still on the car. But there is alot of glue in there and it's pretty tough stuff considering.

The way I did it was white spirit, a hair dryer, screw driver and lots of patience. And you will need a glue to re seal them and while they are apart may as well freshen up the silver in them so spray paint as well. And a spare set of lenses if you're not patient lol

Little update for today: Finally got back onshore, was a long as trip, and my earthing kit I ordered in December (yes December last year) finally arrived so threw it on once I had de iced my car enough to get into the bonnet. Before: After: Has it made a difference? No idea tbh but looks alot nicer

I've got trd rear bushes on my car, although I replaced all bushes on the car for new uprated ones.

I should have been a salesman huh

I'm looking at the silent hi power hks system as well, I don't like silly loud exhausts. Although when giving it some, you want a bit of note, which the hks does from what I've read.

my experience of toyo's are that they are complete pish. I didn't like the flex they gave, and I run all my tyres at 30psi. Also they wore down very quickly. I run falken 912's just now and they seem decent enough. Although haven't got to cain them in the dry, wet seems ok, but I throw the boots in 3rd anyway due to the power.

I'm quite a demanding customer as well tbh, but I'm also a realist. Christmas time orders get delayed, it is what it is. Communication is the key. For me, if I'm spending a few grand with someone, I expected to be treated well. Constant communication. Same when I sell, I keep in constant communication, as folk who have bought from me will be able to testify. If I can do that, yet I work offshore and aren't home 50% of the time, then surely traders should be able to fire a quick email or whatever. A customer should never have to be chasing sellers for info. You kept me up to date, and gave

Silly billy! Could have had a sale if you had done! As always a pleasure to deal with you boss :surrender: If only everyone was like you to deal with it would be happy times.

no pm from you bud that I know of.

Yeah it's cool to use it bud. I would do a bit more of an indepth one sometime but I kind of don't know what else to say really. Except the quality was great like the bc's, all fitted no problem and nothing needed to be modded at all. Rear was nice and easy to set the height to as well as I had a reference, and since it's c spanners it aint rocket science either :surrender: But great quality at a great price. I believe they are the cheapest decent branded coil overs available at the moment? Not to say bc's are rubbish, as they difinately aren't, but my bc's where a few k miles at most, in min

Sparky have you just changed your avatar? I did a mini review of em on tgtt, can't copy and paste on the rig machines though. But the quality is the same as bc, so they are good quality. They are more suited to my needs though, as the dampers are at like setting 10 from the softest they can go so nice and can go lower at the back which isn't a major thing but nice to have the option. My opinion is the same as Enzo's, if you have really bumpy roads, and don't want a hardcore car, these are for you. If you don't mind having a rougher feeling car bc's are great quality though, just a bit harshe

Once the inlet is on, all mapped up again and resprayed, I have honestly no idea really. Hopefully I don't sell it tbh as it's alot of money invested into it that I would never see again, but I do loose interest quite quickly though lol

gave it a quick wash today since it was filthy due to going and getting my camber set up and all that, and since I'm going away today thought I'd best not leave it covered in that nasty gritty crap!:

thats the hrf one aint it?

think it's just past it's year anniversary by a few days actually! I wouldn't bother with a ct9, a td04 is nice and fine for quick road in my opinion. Will pm you details bud. I had a digital dash in my 106 gti, was cool as fuck. Unfortunately though most things seem to have been done before with a starbo really, well anything my dumbass can think of like!

Not a problem bud, I am of the opinion that if someone asks for an opinion they will get one. Whether they like it or not! Why not put in digital dash to make it more unique? Thats one of the things I was thinking of. Although my car has the shifter to make it unique, thats why I had to have it, something different Or buy my car for an insanely large amount of cash

Just keep it you bellend! If you buy a new car, you will need to sort all the problems all over again, I know it, had lots of silly things wrong with mine thanks to the previous twat who owned it. And you car looked mint when I saw it, so if you did sell it, probably at less than it's truely worth, you'll then miss it and either have to buy it back for more most likely or less but after some goon has ragged it to shit. Or buy another mans car (82) then have to sort the problems again or a more expensive one but with less problems! My take on shit. Word.

second person to say that sorry bud, but deffo not a red car tbh, but appreciate you providing options ;) Can anyone photoshop those pics of my car in the vxr blue and also the cossie blue? would be awesome if someone could

thanks for all the options so far lads! At the moment I'm leaning towards the escort cosworth blue! Although any other suggestions that aren't to in your face or flashy?

I generally mis trust any website with no contact number. Far to easy to ignore emails.

I'm in provisionally, as I might not even be onshore so can't say 100% yet.
