  1. You miserable shitbag.
  2. I'll hazard a guess at Northloop
  3. Go to scrap yard and exchange 10 of your pounds for the biggest diesel battery that will fit in the tray then never worry about cranking amps again
  4. Car keys Or assuming I have time to put trousers on where said keys would be, laptop.
  5. Falmouth, the place has just got vibes
  6. Well if you're dropping a gear with a view to speeding up, you generally wanna accelerate as you do so otherwise it will jerk
  7. Not sure if srs with that video, that was the most average down shift ever, if you consider that something wild you must drive like my mum Perhaps if you'd dropped a gear and hit the limiter and not had any more revs to give... I've done that a few times and not really thought anything of it.
  8. Silicone based interior trim sprays, evil product, we used to have the same problem when flocking stuff - wipe down with thinners before applying paint
  9. More pics from Inters And yesterday after much talking about cars for the last year and a bit, an old boy in the village insured me on his car for an afternoon !!!
  10. 13.5, happy with that PAS pump packed up on the way home, smoke, noise, badness, bypassed it for now until I find a new pump
  11. Did my clutch and fly, only been putting it off for a year or so 10 hour job Pretty much set for Inters

    Too many cables

    Just put it all in the bin?!
  13. That Quattro was at Inters year before last, f*cking monster!
  14. This came up with a group of mates a couple of years ago, most of them are standers, I just can't comprehend how that could ever be practical. I've given it a go since but I end up basically standing up hunched over in a seated position to be able to get at the job sufficiently, so why bother standing?! f**king wronguns!
  15. Anyway About done so I took some pics of it looking pretty
  16. Brand new Avons, option A is closer to the truth I just dont like ABS, I can stop a car faster without it, without locking up where the ABS would normally be shitting f**ks!
  17. ABS doesn't slow you down faster, it just allows you to keep control of your steering. It increases stopping distances considerably! And it's just plain old dangerous in snow! In a semi related matter, the traction control in my old Mondeo was laughable, rather than cut/reduce engine power whilst wheel spinning, it forced the accelerator pedal back into your foot with a big fat solenoid
  18. It's all very narrow country roads here and tourists have a real bad habit of driving on the wrong side of the road round corners, I frequently have to perform emergency stops, and ABS just doesn't stop you anywhere near fast enough, it's utter shite!
  19. ABS is the first thing I switch off after starting the car, glad to have that option, hate it!
  20. I was reading a build the other week, guy put an Audi S2 lump in a 944 (I forget which) now that would be worth doing! All major bolt on components were a straight fit too http://www.944-20v.nl/ get it done Edit - thats the non-turbo 20v, essentially the same engine though! (Mines got all 7a drivetrain bolted to it )

    Lurkers!

    Did you hear - Hannah has a husband a baby a house and a job? Just in case everyone didn't see it the first 2 times? This isn't even my original account, I had one years before but got banned
  22. There is absolutely nothing different here to a text message, other than the way you feel about it and therefore use it. You can fire inane conversation by sms in exactly the same way, you just choose not to for reasons you have yet to explain, presumably socially unacceptable? This is the most retarded argument ever, it IS identical, YOU just CHOOSE to use it differently, it's that simple
