  1. Well when you have sold all the mods and are selling the shell let me know Good work on the V though
  2. I remember when playing GT1 & 2 that i would race R33 GTR at over 1000 bhp but could never tune one up to as much as that. It used to tell you the opponents BHP.
  3. Those celicas are lovely, my mum has just bought one, no shit, i had a wee shot of it earlier haha. Yours looks smart as in that red
  4. I would love that shell Rob, but you are fucking miles away. Dont scrap it though.
  5. I laughed at that to ^^ Azure blue is the correct name i think, fucking Gran Turismo, cant get anything right hahaha. With the copy & paste cars theyve been using for about 10 years tehe
  6. Thats some bloody good work there Rob Whats happening with the GT then ?
  7. Lots of like minded people on this forum Theres no better motoring feeling for me than hanging onto the back of an Evo FQ360 at full chat blasting along the Kincardin bridge in a small turbod hatch that i built myself lol.
  8. Takes a bit more than a 10mm to fix modern cars, its my job ;) But i get what you mean, you cant do much without diagnostic equipment though. The new Astra VXR will destroy its diff and gearbox, they had several recalls for it, some had only done a few 100 miles before they had shat the diff through the casing. It feels good when you have built and modded a car yourself and beat a few bigger cars, a lot of people will never know what that feels like. Mainly the 1.2 Corsa Un-limited edition crew ;)
  9. Heres a pic... Amanda from the Bajan band Cover Drive, shes amazing.
  10. Youd make a hell of a lot more money selling the parts off and selling the car seperate. Theres easy a 1.5k in parts and then sell the car for about 2.2K. Thats bare min prices imo.
  11. They did. Oooops ive sparked something off here lol. What interior has it got lol. I joke of course i'm not that pedantic haha.
  12. Both looking very tidy there ;) What splitter is that under the 98spec lip, a cupra one nah ?
  13. Tiny bit of silicon holds them down.
  14. Yeah but the facelifts were never painted in 8K9.
  15. Its more of an annoyance really, i had to explain to them why i only had 2 seats, no carpet, harnesses instead of seatbelts etc. I was like because racecar duh !! Haha my car topped out at 140, i lifted up the cushion on the passenger seat to find a row of nos bottles, when i hit boost + nos at full chat my floor fell out, then me and the mad mechanic had to strip apart the block to replace the piston rings i fried...
  16. I had mine MOT'd at my work so it was all good. Still a proper MOT though, just aswell because i got stopped my the traffics and VOSA cunts 3 days later tehe.
  17. I did that my old GT, think the hi/lo turbo button was the horn lol. Make a circuit from a power source to the horn and use a random switch to work it.
  18. Is that the one with the captive nut in the chassis yeah ? Dont snap that off or else you'll have to cut into the floor lol. Get plenty of heat on it.
  19. Haha i had GT1&2 on PS1, back then it was the best thing ever !! I remember the FR being pretty hard to drive and being over the moon when i mastered a racing TVR lol. See above the BHP figure on the purple Glanza where it says '98 is that ment to be the date of the car ? If so its wrong because 8K9 purple was never on a '98 model. I know, im sad haha.
  20. Wonder what the average age of starlet owners is ? Id say the majority fall into the 'young lads' bracket As i said the proper enthusiasts are all sorted in decent older cars imo, also from speaking to a few of the local boys with the corsas & fabias etc. it seems they dont really give a fuck about cars.
  21. They are both the long route pipe work, i would say the 1st link because the two 90° bend in the 2nd kit look awful and wouldnt flow very well id imagine. Report back which kit you buy and how you find it, i have a FMIC core here too and need pipes, not on CT9 though so the hot pipe is redundant.
  22. Can these HG be put on two ways ? One way covering up an oil way or something ? Im sure ive read on here they can, unsure if that would be causing this issue or not though.
  23. Take the plugs out and have a look down the holes to see if you can spot any markings on the pistons
