  1. Is the throttle position sensor on and calibrated? Idle control valve? I believe the lambda sensor controls fueling up to 2k and then it switches over to the ECU or something like that.
  2. How does it idle? video? Are you running the map sensor? Right ECU? How does it cut out is it a cough and go or just dies without trying etc, any smoke out the exhaust? Going to need some decent information to try and help with this one mate. Having running problems after doing an engine conversion leaves so many things to be checked and considered.
  3. Haha Reading all this over again it does seem strange that the money was taken back so late. It's also strange that it's not in your account as that's where it will go when you finish going through with a claim, and just to top that off it would be strange if there is no history of where it has been and gone etc in your transaction history. Also the way you're reacting calling everyone names and telling us all to fuck off instead of proving points or giving some kind of evidence suggests to me that you're lying lol. Then again it's strange that he didn't contact you to ask what's going on wh
  4. Well done to Charlotte (Funny Onion) for winning July's picture of the month with 14 votes! Don't forget to vote for August's contenders and submit for September's POTM . Adam.
  5. Well guys and girls the submission time is up and I will be making the new thread for this month ;). Thanks for all the submissions and good luck. Adam.
  6. As posted above, everything now sold Please close!
  7. That pisses me off if I'm honest.
  8. I don't beat around the bush haha
  9. Anyone would be stupid to deal with you after reading about how you stole a set of coilovers and claimed your money back through PayPal. Idiot.
  10. Manifold and decat provisionally sold!
  11. I use my local paint shop for base coats and specific colours just because it's hard to get them online. But stuff like primer, hardener, thinners, papers, blocks, filler, etc etc etc I literally get it all off ebay. So much cheaper! Get the 040 from the shop and get everything else online. Should save some pennies
  12. Jo hates it. but I love it... >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdrL3QxjyVw
  13. I'd contact the police and say that he's stolen them. If nothing happens I'd probably be tempted to set his car on fire lol.
  14. Awesome . Yep they're both for ct9. I'll send you a PM now.
  15. Agreed with the keying although with 2k solids you may as well use a 240 wet and dry as it will sink in to any light scratches and pin holes. I personally do anyway. I always used to spray 2k without thinners too for the high build when flattening back and polishing, but I find it easier now to just thin it down a tad more so it lays nice and flat and then I don't even have to flatten it back after. It's usually perfect straight out the gun (or good enough lol)
  16. Sounds like they def mixed the paint wrong but I'm afraid their argument will also be that you should have tested it first. They should hopefully give you a refund or the right colour but again they might fight you and say your car is a different colour or you should have it colour matched first etc. Halfords probably have a million and one excuses ready in a book for these situations. As for using a gun and compressor I can tell you the basics to start but the only real way of getting used to what works for you is by practicing as everyone's different. I used to work by the book and what I r
  17. I'm currently painting my car in 040 and to give you an idea it should look like this So on that comparison I'd say the colour of the bumper is off lol. You can get a slight brightness differences in colour for a few reasons but it's basically due to uneven or poor coverage. Seeing as the colour is way off I'd say it's not down to that... What lacquer did you use and how does it feel? Was the colour any brighter before you put the lacquer on? Chances are they mixed the paint wrong and you should take it back for a refund or the right colour lol.
  18. I don't understand why people are saying they handle bad? Sure I think my EG handled better with the same mods but the GTs have never been bad and I've out handled some decent cars. As mad mike said, he's been the totb fwd best handling car for two years running in his GT. If you have torque steer out of corners and wheel spin all the time then to be honest you just can't drive haha . Can't just nail the throttle all the time and expect it to be spot on.
  19. No as you cut wires to the standard ecu and bypass them via the blue. The easiest way is to buy a plug and play harness or a field harness that has already been wired for your car, and just leave it unplugged, then the person who maps it can just plug it in when you get there.
  20. Be brave and go for 300bhp on standard internals ; )
  21. Well said Paddy haha ;)
  22. Angry Aamir haha . I understand what you're saying and I think there are a few reasons why there is such racism aimed at Muslims. I think the media plays a huge part as they feed us whatever crap they want. It wouldn't surprise me if news was published about someone littering because they were a Muslim or it hit the headlines because a Muslim farted in public or something... Whatever news is ever published about Muslims seems to be bad and it paints a picture for gullible people who just hear and believe everything they're told without interpreting it for themselves. As you said everyone is
