  1. Or their cams
  2. Ballypatrick Forrest park has a 5 mile route through it, not sure if open this time of year.
  3. Here's a few photos Cheers
  4. Cheers guys, will throw a few photos up tonight. Photobucket any my phone don't agree. Cheers.
  5. Looks like more from TGTT will be going on the 8th, that one might be the best Joel.
  6. Would there be interest is going to a forest or country park that you can drive through? Would be good for photos?
  7. Yes mate, it's good craic. As long as we don't race AE86's again LOL. I might do both weekends TBH, seems everyone on here is free on the 1st and TGTT are free on the 8th.
  8. Have a look here too, compares all the e-series engines. http://www.tercelreference.com/tercel_info/component_library/engine_components.html#intake manifolds
  9. How does the 8th sound? Quite a few people from TGTT can't make it on the 1st. Would just be r2r though. I can do both weekends so, I'm not fussed.
  10. If you smoke, make roll ups, massive savings there, obviously not as much as quitting. Black Friday sales are on the 29th, bargains to be had there.
  11. I buy my clothes once a year. CCS, a skate shop in 'merica have a sale on start of December, whopper discounts 3 t-shirts for $20. Last time I bought 30 T-Shirts and 5 pairs of jeans. Cost me about £200 including shipping. Stuck half of them in the cupboard until June, bam new set of clothes without having to spend a penny.
  12. Don't go out drinking. Don't drive flat out everywhere. Stay off ebay etc.
  13. It's hard to explain in writing. On the actual clips there is another clip/tab it's usually point downwards. It is quite small but you pull it outwards and pull the big clip out, if you know what it mean.
  14. Yes, on the UK spec (can't see it being different on a FTE) you need to push the clips outwards. A small flat screwdriver will come in handy. Took me a while to figure it out.
  15. I'd say it's a fair price. The car is pushing 11 - 12 years old now.
  16. I'm trying to picture what my car will look like when I'm done modifying. The plan is: Cabon Bonnet (uk spec) ID-Workz or similar wi Remix front bumper Advan Sar3 ( i think) Varis rear bumper Reflet rear lights Livesports or TOM'S spolier (undecided) Undecided skirts - I'll let the photoshopper decide Is it possible to photoshop the above parts to gauge how it will look when I've finished?
  17. Afternoon folks, As most of you will be aware, I recently secured a meet in Ballypatrick Forest Park (BFP). The forest features a five mile route through it, mostly tarmac and some gravel, a river also crosses over a tarmacked section of the route. I thought it would be a great idea to hold a meet here, due to the scenery. It also serves as a point of reference for future meets. It has been a lot of hassle to secure this, with various obstacles that had to be overcome. Ballypatrick Forest Park is run by the Forestry Commission (FC) of Northern Ireland and as such we have been granted special access for the day only. The forest park is not open to public vehicles on 8 December, therefore we will be the only vehicles using the trail. There will still be members of the public such as rambles, dog walkers and families about, so we need cause as little disturbance as possible. On this occassion we are representing both UKSO and TGTT as well as ourselves, so don't let either clubs or yourselves down with questionable behavior. To make things clear I will lay everything out in sections. Itinerary The meeting place is the Centra Westbank in Duncure Industrial Estate (Belfast Harbor). I will be there from around 8:00am, the Centra will be open and serving hot food, so grab a fry while you can. 8:30 - Briefing - this will be done by Jay or myself. It is important that everyone going does attend this. 8:40 - We will make our way round the north side of the docks where there is a single file car park. I though this would be a good spot for a quick photo, as you should be able to get the sea, Cave Hill and of course your EP in the shot. 9:00ish - We will leave for BFP following the below route. At the roundabout, take the 3rd exit onto the M2 ramp to M5/International Airport/Carrickfergus Merge onto M2 At junction 4, take the A8(M)/A6 exit to Larne/Glengormley At Sandyknowes Roundabout, take the 4th exit onto A8(M) heading to Larne/Carrickfergus/B90/Glengormley/A6 At the roundabout, take the 2nd exit onto Ballynure Rd/A8 Go through 3 roundabouts At the roundabout, take the 1st exit onto Drumahoe Rd Turn right onto Ballyhampton Rd Slight left onto Ballymullock Rd Turn left onto Brustin Brae R Continue onto Drumnagreagh Rd Turn left onto Coast Rd/A2 Continue to follow A2 At the roundabout, take the 2nd exit onto The Cloney/A2 Continue to follow A2 Sharp left onto Largy Rd Sharp right Turn left Make a U-turn Turn right toward Largy Rd Sharp left onto Largy Rd Continue onto Garron Rd/A2 Turn right onto Glenariffe Rd/A2 Turn left to stay on A2 It is a total of 53 miles from the docks to BFP, taking the scenic route of course. The satnav estimates it to be 1hr & 30mins, but we may stop to take photographs along the way, should there be a safe place for us to stop. So I'm allowing plenty of time to get there - I would prefer to just cruise up rather than a flat out sprint. 11:30ish - By this stage we should all be at BFP and have had a cup of tea. We will head into the forest for photos, stopping along the way. 1:00ish - Would be a good time to stop for a bight to eat and have a bit of yarn. As you've probably guessed it's packed lunches. 2:00ish - Continue round the trail. 3:30ish - I want to be back in the car park at this stage, with it getting dark earlier. From experience with NILRC the last thing you want is hassle in the forest when it's dark. 4:00ish - Leave for Ballycastle - Gryzor has suggested a nice restaurant for a bite to eat. Of course this is optional, but it would be great to have everyone there. Cost: The cost charged by the Forestry Commission is £3.50, but I am going to ask for £5.00. Reason being this is an excellent spot and the FC run 95% of all forests in N.I. there I feel it would be a good idea to butter them up a bit. Should this meet be a success, I will organise more for next year. It is always good to get to different areas for photos rather than the car park at Eddie Irvine's . I will of course add receipts for the payment to the FC. Signup Deadline: Tuesday 26 December, I need your payment by then along with your full name, car registration and mobile number. Payment to be made by PayPal to Chrisgreen1993@hotmail.co.uk. This has been cleared by UKSO staff & Jay from TGTT. Either send the requested details in the PayPal message or by text to 07791117851. Lastly by most importantly: Code of Conduct. Each member must follow both codes of conduct, due to both clubs being represented. As well as additional ones set out below. Please read very carefully. Codes of conduct can be found here: UKSO: Click TGTT: Click & Click Additional Rules for BFP 1. No littering 2. Max speed of 15mph - either Jay's car or mine will be used as a 'pace car' 3. No unnecessary revving of engines - we want to cause as little disturbance as possible 4. No shenanigans - general unruly behavior Additionally, we do not public liability insurance. You enter BFP at your own risk. If you think your car is too low, something might catch or you don't like the look of it. Make another member aware, don't risk it. We will watch you over an area you think might damage your car. If your car gets damaged, tough PERIOD. ( I don't mean to sound sharp, but we cannot have people trying to claim of UKSO, TGTT or FC). Speed limit is kept to 15mph because of this. If a complaint is made by the general public, we will not be granted access to any forest park again, so don't ruin it for everyone. There are no staff members attending from UKSO and we have been entrusted with brand - we cannot have bad press coverage in a local paper. Jay will be attending form TGTT. I may have left a few things out, so there may be further rules applied. - Club staff feel free to add anything further. Failure to comply with the code of conduct will result in the exclusion of events organised by Jay or myself. Please bring a camera and take plenty of photos! Also it will be the middle of winter, bring jackets & waterproofs. Hopefully we will have a very successful and enjoyable meet for everyone.

  18. I should also mention both Noels car and mine are running Apexi AFC's. The adjustable FPR gives more more to work with when setting up.
  19. Intake manifold is no longer for sale. Offers on the rest.
  20. In my case, I'm running ITB's. I Noel's case, he is changing the AFR's and experimenting with different setups. All part of trial and error.
  21. I'm going to be buying a fuel lab one, seem to be the most favored and I haven't heard any horror stories yet. Factory ones are not fine on an N/A. I was having problems with my Tomei FPR and put the standard one back on. Drove 2 miles up the road and changed it back. The engine was definitely not getting enough fuel.
  22. Looks awesome. Would have one of these over a fiesta st/ corsa vxr etc. Is the 1nz, so there are plenty of aftermarket goodies already out there.
