  1. Buy it and let us know! It already seems a bit misleading to quote it as 80w and 8000 lumens, when the bulbs are half this, then half it again for low beam.



    They could be quite bright to look at, but project very little light outwards. A standard H4 is 55W as well.


  2. Bought myself a ex gated TD04 compatible mild steel manifold, downpipe etc from WEPR to replace the one I've currently got, so hope to have that and a few other electrical bits fitted January! Can't wait to get her back on the road again. The screamer will be plumbed back into the downpipe, and the manifold adapted by WEPR to support a clamp vband Tial wastegate

  3. Driving along with a group. You pick a number, 1, 2 or 3, then if you chose 2, the driver of the second car that goes past you, is the person you would date / nail, etc. You don't know who you've picked until they're along side you, which can be quite comical if it's an old woman, bloke, etc. A bit stupid but if you're on a long journey, it kills time.



    Other one is to do your window washers and count how many cars behind you get hit by the spray, and put their wipers on.

  5. Hello all.



    Another quick update. I repaired the car using a second hand wing, front indicator housing and stuck the original bumper back on, and managed to get it to JAE. Front fog is a little cracked, but that's in and working ok. I've got some replacement headlights as they're both damaged but unfitted as yet. I've also got a replacement Toms bumper from ID Workz, but that's still sealed as I may not fit. At JAE, I had some of the car park dents in the rear 1/4 pulled, which makes the car much nicer to look at. They bugged me for ages.



    Shortly after, I noticed that I might have a water leak, but not sure where from. There's a pool of water at the bottom of the radiator, but the water level doesn't appear to be dropping much so i'm unsure. I bought a second hand radiator just to rule that out, but annoyingly and typically my luck, the "Glanza fit" radiator turns out to be a standard single core 57cm one, which is just crap and won't do.



    Just to add more misery, my Tuning Developments manifold has cracked again for the third time this year, so I've really lost interest at the moment. Spending like £120 a time to get it repaired, only for it to crack months later isn't fun. The MOT has run out now so she doesn't currently move anywhere really. I went to start the car the car just to keep it moving and the battery was dead, so chucked a new one in (under guarantee). She still leaks oil! Despite various attempts at sorting that, it's coming out from various places.



    I love her when she works, but I don't love her as she is right now, and seriously lost faith in it. I guess we've all been there at some stage!



    Some Photos of the repair.
