  1. Turbo'd mx5,that'll be more fun! A bit easier on fuel,and theres loadsa parts for them too!
  2. No probs lad,stuff like that is usually somethin small like a loose hose. Every day is a school day!
  3. Please tell us this is a wind up! Buy at your peril mate!
  4. Not bad,would need to see it though.Wheres it from? (i'm not after one,i've got two already)
  5. At a guess,average hourly rate is around £40-£60.Roughly an hour a side,may be more or less.Hope you got some locking nuts for the wheels,else you may find your motor up on some nice red bricks one morning!
  6. Might be the actuator is knackered too,if that sticks open turbo will still spool up but car won't have any power so will be slower! Try a different dump valve if you can.
  7. Wind your window up! That'll stop the whistle! I can't see how you have a boost leak if it's still reading normal on the gauge?Is the gauge the one on the instrument panel or aftermarket? But then you say it drives like a 1.3? Try all the hoses and pipes around the dump valve/turbo.Either that or the dump valve is knackered!
  8. celica's are 5 stud yeah.
  9. Mental mental chicken oriental! Two tone is cool! But then i'm biased! Deffo needs black mirrors and scoop,it just don't quite look right to me.
  10. Seems a lot of cash for a sensor and cat,theres a few 2nd hand cats on tgtt at the mo,alot cheaper than forking out for a new one.
  11. Bloody hell that was lucky! At least you and the car are ok! Theres a mini roundabout on the way into my estate,nearly had my car smacked loadsa times on it,it's not fun!

  14. what a numpty! Good job he missed your car though!
  15. Cheers dave thats exellent,sent you a pm.
  16. Thats a good way for subaru to remember a great man! Looks awesome too!
  17. Tamworth is in staffordshire,so a bit far to go from bristol.Some nice back roads once off the M6 though!
  18. to be honest that lo res pic didn't too that bad at all to me,go with what has been mocked up i reckon, looked pretty good.
  19. Looks like a starlet and jaguar got jiggy and thats the offspring!! YUK!
  20. Saw a pair go on ebay recently for £20 +£5p&p,£60 seems a bit steep to for them thats all.
  21. Ordered that adapter from FSE on monday,got it today! £25 for the bloody thing though! Found a bracket that might work too! Heres where i'm gonna put mine. http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k282/pw_...rletpics016.jpg http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k282/pw_...rletpics015.jpg http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k282/pw_...rletpics014.jpg

    stickers

    Any chance of getting some little ones made for the outside of the windows? I've got tints on at the mo so the inside ones wont show on mine.
  23. Grade 4 and above are the best tou can buy,but some may advertise as grade 4 and it's not! If it looks tidy drives well,remember to get the engine fully warmed up,then it's probably a good buy.Take someone who knows cars well or failing that use the AA or RAC to do a check on it money worth spending! Never trust a seller! If possible buy from an enthusiast rather than a garge.
