hmmmmmm, thats what i figured, a shit seal. fucking useless bastards. thanks folks. Phil. -
i try not to put the oil leak on there, otherwise the list will never be finished. it's been leaking like this for what, 2 years now? and every time the Jay/Alan/Joel get it fixed, it starts all over again. and always from the same rough location. frankly i think it would be easier to swap the block out because its just fucking out of hand now, and is the reason why I have car finance because my 'new' engine leaked from the minute it went in and wouldnt pass MOT in a month of sundays, but i cant really afford to be buying a new block right now. *sigh* i think jay and i should have just taken a couple of weeks to strip and reseal the engine ourselves before it got installed. might have saved half this bollox. obviously the oil pump was part of the problem, yet now its replaced, its still leaking from that area. madness. Phil.

Has anyone else ever experienced this, and if so, did u manage to resolve it? In short, i got the windscreen replaced on the daily as she cracked following a stone chip. And ever since, the windscreen has misted up like fuck, whereas beforehand it never ever misted at all. I'm now having to run the full de-mist function every 2 to 3 minutes and it fucking infuriating, not to mention shit for the MPG as it runs off the aircon. I came out of work today and the inside of the windscreen was so bad that it looked like it had rained inside the car! as in, not misted, but full on condensation. suggestions?? other than phoning up Autoglass and cursing the pricks out down the fucking phone. I've already had to fix the damn windscreen wiper arms because they fucking bent them! Phil.

i just lol'd in the office at that!!!! Phil.

he appears to have nested over there dude, he and his wife even got themselves a house.Personally i think he moved there to stop me inappropriately touching his GT in a sexual manner. that spoiler combo.....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... yeah, its cost me a lot more than the other matching ones, but it seems that the pressure versions, when complete kits, seem to fetch bigger dolla. now all i need is some wiring assistance. lol. it'll be some meet at The Costa, my Alfa and your Beemer. Jay will be disgusted by all the derv in his yard! Phil.

The bro and his GT live in Scotland mate and are not currently scheduled to be on these shores pre-2014. But i'll let ya know before i head down. Also, just received pictures from the boss in PA, he kindly opened the box and photo'd the contents for me. It is brand. spanking. new. Unused. I estimate receipt in my grubby paws this day 2 weeks. At long last! Phil.

dunno about tinkering per se, being pretty retarded with the spanners, but this last gauge was fucking me off, even if it never sees action again, I had to get this damn gauge. Cheers Phil, hopefully someday it'll get where i want it. need to visit Jay to collect a part actually, been meaning to get down all summer but never got round to it. must make more of an effort. Phil.

funny just watched this on IMDB, looks awful. Phil.
-
they're government run, meaning there's no wiggle room for £10 and a crate of beer lol. Phil.
-
been hunting for this part for many, many years. i only know of one and it aint for sale unfortunately, as I've asked multiple times lol. Phil.
-
Aye so, apparently it arrived in Pennsylvania at the start of last week. Hoping the boss sends through some more confirmation later today when they're in the office. Thats phase 1 complete; phase 2 will be getting it over here. Phil.

simply beautiful. Phil. -
i had to wire in a new switch for mine, as getting one of the direct fit bosses is ~£100 or there abouts IIRC. few quid for a bush button off Demon Tweeks and job done. Phil.
-
i like that, looks well. Phil.
-
4k seems a little high in the current environment dude. maybe if she'd been forged, but theres no mention of that. Philm speaks the truth, speak to Jay. He is our leader. Phil.
-
sorry to hear that dude. is it definitely an EP91 your after?? usually a good few GTs for sale, including my brothers at present (***shameless plug***) Phil.
-
