  1. This is truth. Jardo, I was looking into finance again, and I can get a car on lease through the Firestation (part of the council lease scheme) got any advice on cars or leasing?
  2. I think the engine might just need another pot of £800 wax put inside it? Or direct my to working car for good price.
  3. Yup it's an m52b25, not happy at all with the amount of mustard muck! Dipstick is fine and coolant levels dropping slowly though My cars driving like a right nail! Cutting out when coasting to a stop 60% of the time, very lumpy idle, dials sit flat but you can feel the car juddering as if it wants to go. Last night I held it at 800rpm for 10 second and it cut out once I let off the throttle, no gurgle, no attempt at saving itself it just died. Start up takes 3-4 cranks and then it fires in 3 lumps to life. Any ideas?
  4. Fancy making me one for a bit of wonga?
  5. Boumsong was it you who was going to make a ally steering wheel? I'm looking for a new one in the very close future!!
  6. Oh lord, has anyone seen the new supra (ft-1?) I did a happy wee, the things beautiful!!!
  7. Please be careful not to get any 'joy' on your new sexy seats!
  8. Custom subframe be going in the e36. Well I'm 6ft 32" waist if that's any good for you? I suppose as it's a daily I need to have comfort as priority. Is there any sites that sell these for good prices or is it solely egay?
  9. I'd be willing to pay up to 550 on a pair? Got no clue on the prices of them to be honest.
  10. Can you suggest any good ones
  11. Must admit those recaros look nice. out of question, speaking of bucket seats, what makes certain ones better than others? Looking at buying some but will be used daily!
  12. Pissing more than a pregnant woman about to give birth; but oil. Sump gaskets dead. Never have seen a nice Subaru is all!
  13. Buy a Subaru?! May as well purchase a gun to shoot yourself with too.
  14. Nah its the baby 2.5 323i I'm not overly fussed about the state of the roll as its going to be a daily drift slag, do long as don't damage paint doing it I'm happy! I understand about the spring stiffness, my rears are cut springs so need to find sorter stiffer ones for the coilycups I'd only drift on skinny waste wheels max of 205/50-65. The wheels going on are banded t5 steels 9j fronts with 11j rears but might play it safe for tyres and arch and go for 10j? What spring ratio would you recommend?
  15. I have a arch roller, would that be up to the job? Was just thinking of getting banded steels made, and rocking 11j on the rear, but obviously no rear camber for drifting. Wouldn't drift on 11j, dont think the car has enough grunt!
  16. Need to sort out sensible wheels and tyres! Bolt on arches or rolled I'm undecided. Sort the stance a bit m3 bumper, rear window spoiler visually ill be happy.
  17. I give it a week before you take them sketchy things off!
  18. I was paying 216 a month for my e36 2.8 touring you lucky sheet.
  19. Can't wait to get it down! Guess Jardo won't be too happy at my half arsed attempt at detailing .
  20. I'm after buckets, lost out by £5 On some New condition out of date sparco seats. Them ones look too fake?
  21. Right finally got the car! Service done, checked lines, anti-freeze added, looked at underneath and bushes all good Its amazing, the car drives so much better than my old 328(mileage related?) Going to ve fully cleaned inside and out, Jardo would have a shitfit if he saw the 2year untendered paint. Got quite a crew bubbles, surface rust, lacquer peel, but all the panels are straight, no dents. Between the gap of Christmas and New Year it's going to be on coilys(from my old one) have its middlebox and cat removed, diff welded and interior stripped. Does anyone know what to do about patching a hole on the drivers seat leg bolster?
