  1. id personaly get a fmic. but if your gonna go down the arc tmic route just make sure u plan to stick with it ive seen a few come up for sale and they seem to sit for ages not selling untill some insane price drops take place
  2. theres a lad from gourock with a black glanza on here IIRC prob him
  3. i put a bit of think rubber between the pipe scream n seemed to have solved it for me
  4. i agree with shorty for the main part but not so convinced on the hybrid for country roads thats all we have around near me and i cant fault the td04 at all on them as long u no how to drive it to the road conditions. now i can only realy speak for country roads but 1 massively overlooked thing when people go for speed/power from starlets is the all to common ill strap a big fuck off turbo on it to go faster when in reality a stock ct9 with some good handling and braking mods would shit on almost any starlet thats just had a td04 slaped on and the boost wound up but thats a diffrent thread all together
  5. well its only when am at work its in a big industrail estate and they have set up a camp just behind it. the car park is a private car park but almost the whole estate is surrounded by forrest so its rather easy for them to sneak around and gain access to the estate and nick things they constantly get caught steeling stuff but for whatever reasons the police cant seem to stop them or even get a conviction on them
  6. sitting at work the other day and 1 of the mangers came running over to tell me to check my car. looked out window to find 4 travelers were walking round my car looking inside it and pulling at door handles/ bonnet. so ran out to confront them by time i got to my car a few of the guys in work had already ran out to see what was going on and as soon as they shouted what the fuck are u doing the travelers all ran off. luckily it appears they got disturbed before they done anything to the car but since then am thinking might be wise to look in to getting 1 of these in car camera systems that record 24/7. just wondering if u have to buy the exact kit or u could convert something like the track day cams to record 24/7. cheers shaun
  7. ^ this worth spending the extra for a proper map. nothing agaist the blitz ecu i used but since getting it done on emu u notice an instand diffrence on power and the amount of trips to the petrol station u make. and launch control isnt to bad either
  8. love this car if it was me id strip the rear and such and get a cage for it even if it was just black so it doesnt stand out massively thing is gonna fucking fly esp with u behind the wheel on a track day be intresting to see what its end weight is aswell
  9. just out at my car and noticed my passanger footwels totaly soaked i take it that means the matrix is well and truely shafted? i was sujested by a local garage to stick 1 of those bottles of rad weld liquids in to the water system to see if that might stop the leak but ive always been told never to touch them any input?
  10. i was going to go down the hybrid route but happy i went for the td04 was worried about lagg. tbh its no were near as bad as people make out and only time ull notice it is from a standing start. only had a chance to to test it agaist the 2 local lads who had stock ct9s the lagg was the last thing on my mind as i flew past them and that was at 1 bar on a plug and play
  11. as above^ then engine oil coolant time all the lil things are added prob could make up 100kgs
  12. am running a td04 at 1.2 bar on stock internals atm maped on a emu tho i wouldnt trust a plug n plug over a bar
  13. i rembered i had todo my mot like 5 days before it was due and no local garages would touch it due to being an import .luckily a quik post on here to ask about good garages for imports and it flew threw its mot with no issues
  14. i go on it bout once a week to see whats happening but i started to get annoyed when i was posting stuff in wanted threads and it wouldnt get accepted even tho i was just posting to say i had the bit the guy was looking for
  15. bah i got a sub and amp already just the doing the actual building part puts me off doing my own. helped a mate do 1 if his golf and its put me off trying mine fora long time now
  16. i like that boot build whats happening to it now its all been taken out
  17. need to give spuddy a shout for this
  18. had many deals with iddy and i doubt ull find a more honest guy. in fact hes been to nice a few times and backfired with him getting riped off by other members so i certainly wouldnt worrie with dealing with him at all
