Nah man I dont even know who or where it was sold to.

They arent too bad at all. Will need the rear casing sealed though or they will steam up. Plus a good wet and dry then polish to make them nice and clear again.

Have you tryed to take off the water hoses and blast out the cooling system then refill it? Maybe worth a try 1st its free because you wont need to use antifreeze if your gna go straight ahead and do the HG as you will be draining it anyway just an hour or so graft if you have a hose.

^^ This There are alot of these in the country now. Probably more than there ever has been as they are all being shipped out of japan and when something becomes more easy available prices go down. But as people break them and write them off those who care for theirs will see the values rise again. As you said they are cheap to fuel and cheap to tax its only a matter of time before they become in high demand because of the good mileage and tax compared to other small hot hatches which are quite poor even now.

Make sure its not a blocked water jacket.

Nothing like a nice fresh pair. They cost a fair whack mind you.
-
Snap on they cost a fortune lol. Go to a garage and get one done or something but bubbling in the coolant tank is normally a good indicator of the head gasket. Not garunteeing thats the problem but its a good possibility.
-
Tryed some a they doughnuts the day boys and have to say............. greggs ones are better lol. Load of hype over sweet fuck all.

What do you think? rebuild stock engine...

Forge it mate... Do it 1ce and do it right. No point rebuilding it like new then blowing it up and doing it again. Just TD04 it as it is and see how it goes then go from there and either forge it or blow it up then forge it lol. -
Not watched the episode yet but the Astra is in a different league to the others for looks. A garage local to me has 1 and it is absolutely sexual.
-
Im gna get my hands on a set of dials that are fucked and take the odometer out and see how u do it proper.

Dont know if its a boot build looks to me like its just interior panels and pieces thrown in the back. As for it the colour is hideous jam front splitters are criminal and the interior looks a riot. That said It looks like a nice base with a coat of paint and the interior sorted youd defo be onto a rare 1 of a kind motor there. -
Cool well for Blue with harness and map sensor you should be aiming to pay 300-350 and ultimate with harness and sensor about 450-500. Make sure if you are buying blue that the ignition and injector harnesses are wired in there also as I think the earlier models didnt include these.
-
They are basically the same ultimate allows finer tuning and has extras like launch control. To be fair in the long term Ultimate is always going to be better but Blue would be sufficient. Youd be aswell spending the extra budda.
-
Haha I wasnt sure if they actually would do it or not in captivity would be funny to look in 1 morning and see a random tail lying around lol. That was what I was trying to avoid with my beardies I didnt want the hassle of hatchlings lol good if you have rare lizards tho will sell for good money.
-
Have you seen the queues? I work in south gyle 3 days a week and the queues have been ridiculous to say the least.....for a fucking doughnut. Some people really need to straighten out their priorities. I'll be getting some when the novelty wears off and you can go down and purchase them like a civilised human being lol.
-
They look quality how old are they? Do they ever drop off their tails?
-
I was with mine for dinner then played fifa aw nyt who said romance is dead lol. I wasnt up there the day bucket a work in bellshill but if thats nearby could swoop in on ma way home or tht.
-
Haha mate honestly theres some belters out there. Some of them are so arrogant they think they will leave you confused and your just sitting in your head going pish...pish...pish....pish.
-
Mate Ive genuinely had 1 of these people who think they are clued up on cars say to me why dont you run the starlet with no wastegate. So as a joke to humour him i just said because the engine would blow up. He looked at me like I was the 1 that was retarded and said naw it wouldnt it would just chatter. I just walked away n said mate thats a dump valve are u for real? Its the same thing!!! Ok then good luck with your VW pal.
-
Aye thats it mate your an enthusiast regardless of what you drive. But aye the whole 1 ltr with a massive can on it sounding like a fly farting through a bean can is just a red neck to be honest. You also find most of these people who go to "cruises" tend to think that wolfrace is a good brand of wheel and that Essex Racing is a must see website. They dont have a clue about cars they just like to pretend they do.
-
Great price there mate. You might want to stick a few pics of the loom up though people will want to see the wiring. GLWS
-
Just not into it mate go MacDonalds car park put up your bonnet n sit there like look at ma blue pipes. Not for me tbh I like cars but unless its an event like japfest or jae I think the car scene is a bit gay. Too many wee boys in 1l road eaters wanting to sit about revving the tits off them. Its slightly embaressing if you ask me.
-
Thats painful. Mines has never been off the road for any longer than a week. Its worked on then back on the road the same day. Only time it was off for a week was when I had to use both my turbos to build 1 good 1 so never had a spare to use in while that was being done.
