  1. So i have been bashing and swearing at this total cunting piece of shit wank for about an hour now.

    Ive done the drivers side easy enough but the passenger side is not moving.

    I near enough launched a cold chisel into the 5th dimension trying to get it off.

    What do i do now to get this off?

  2. Its my local track lol, id guess that this was the infield coming up to agastoni harpin?

    I have no idea to be honest as that picture was a few months back now but it looks about right lol

    How far are you from snett?

    Im from camb so its the nearest track to me too.

  3. Year: 1998
    Model: uk EP91
    Tax: none
    MOT: till june 2017
    Mileage: 156000


    Description:

    This car was bought in 2012 for my girlfriend as a first car.

    We payed £300 for it in standard trim except being lowered and missing a back box and a broken indicator stalk.

    After fixing it up she used it up until she bought an MR2 at that point it came into my hands to be used as my everyday car.

    The only time it has ever let us down is one winter morning many years ago the aux belt snapped other than that it has been completely faultless.

    This year and the year before it was the transport of choice to take the two of us and out two dogs from cambridge to scotland so anyone who says it is impractical isnt trying hard enough.

    Sadly though only its journey to scotland this year a wheel bearing has given up and is not making a huge racket.

    It does however still start without hesitation and drive under its own power it just makes alot of noise doing it!

    I would have kept it going longer but honestly im sick to death of driving a lowered bumpy ass tiny little car everywhere so i went and bought an EP3 as a more interesting daily!

    Pros:

    Cheap runner as your all aware

    New windscreen fitted this year

    Super cool stealth matt black paint job

    Enkei alloy wheels 15x6.5 et38(i think)

    Kids love to see the 'batman car' parked up in tescos. I've had more compliments in this than the RX7!

    Cons:

    Front wheel bearing is very noisy

    Its had dogs in it.

    It leaks a little bit of oil but it is pretty minimal.

    The colour and sticker combo is a bit marmite!

    The paint job is also a rattle can job but its perfect for the no fucks given tesco run when some cunt in an audi wants to park in all the bays.

    I think thats everything, it will be sad to see it go as it has done an amazing job over the years but time moves on and all that.


    Price: £300 including wheels, momo wheel, panhard rod and all the spares i find in the shed!

  4. The long and shor of it is that im looking at getting a megasquirt ECU in the future for a project.



    Now i would like to know the differences as with the new ECU brings new possibilities :o


    I would like to turbo the pig for one and id like to do it on my current engine and upgrade the engine if and when it needs it.



    Obviously it would be easier to just get the turbo engine in from the get go but wheres the fun in that.



    So yea if i know what the differance is in the loom i can save myself some trouble later on by building a new loom to suit.



    Its all up in the air at the moment but if you have any other suggestions feel free to chip in!


  5. Gearbox, clutch kit, flywheel off

    Poke a hole in the seal

    Put a screw in the hole and use a driver to pry against it to pop it out (so ya dont damage seal contact surface)

    Clean up the area

    Lube the new seal

    Gently and evenly tap the new seal in (i use a 3/8" extension and a hammer)

    Use new flywheel bolts or loctite the old ones

    Rebuild in reverse order

    Sorted.

    Lol fair enough.

    So long as there is no special requirements getting the old one out ill be happy.

    Well not happy but less annoyed doing a shitty job :)
