  1. Ok seeing that Edinburgh getting the pooh, the best weekend away In recent years is Barcelona the dogs doolies, what a great weekend.
  2. Edinburgh, try the run over carter bar on the A68 and a walk around Princess St for some heavy shopping.
  3. That second photo looks perfectly normal to me now.
  4. Hi mate what service is it P1 P2 or P3 and where are you live makes the difference. If you live near Lincoln I can give you some advice no good to you if you live in Aberdeen though?
  5. Torque settings for these 80 ft lb, nicer looking finish than the D1.

    Windscreen

    I took mine to Autoglass it didn't have large chips or cracks but general road rash. The Autoglass windscreen guy makes the decision if he thinks its a replacement job, which he did of course Replaced the window, paid the excess, no involvement with admiral, job done.
  7. Does look a bit out but you also have the camber of the road to bring into it, zmanalex is spot on (what else) have the camber checked. Still have a sneaky feeling from the photos its because of the photo angle, road camber etc. I presume you've put it on a flat surface and its still the same?

    Window fix

    Have a recheck works fine for me.
  9. Ive had yellow stuff on mine for nearly a year used on track and road the brake dust will not get better with use, it goes with this type of pad. If you want less dust "red stuff" is the pad to use.
  10. Youll be lucky, check out the new price and the big problem with anything over 3 or 4 years is oxydisation. I agree whip them of and tidy them up.
  11. Dont get me going again, I was ranting a couple of weeks ago about this. If you want to see proper parking spaces where every car can open its doors without a "ding" you have to go to the States. A few of my American friends always complain how mean and petty our car parking designers are and this usually followed up by a comment about breakfast orange juice being served in "eye glass sizes" in hotels and B+B's. There is no escape from the half wits who will always park next to you so that only a person with anorexia can squeeze into the drivers seat. The only solution is to pay a minder to look after it when its in public parking or a second car preferably an old beaten up land rover that you dont care about. Have a quick read up from Plato 2000 years ago who reported that all democracies will destroy them selves when the chariot drivers were allowed to drive without taking a test I think this was the start of the breakdown in bad motoring. Well thats how I read it, any way must close Jeremy Kyle been on for half an hour must get my dose of sanity. Happy driving all.
  12. A late thankyou, started to miss my daily fix for a short while there.
  13. Oulton park at the 102 -105 db level but do get your car remapped sooner rather than later HFC's, run lean and do need a remap. Also its not uncommon for you o2 sensors to throw an engine light.
  14. That's intriging. I always have the aircon turned on and have always had an idle between 750 and 800 rpm. Looks like the throttle body clean may have improved things:) Will see what its down to by the time I get home tonight. Anyone know how long it normally takes for the ECU to settle down after a reset? Read a year or two ago on an American site that it takes to the following day (no evidence though) but certainly there is a form of adjustment and resettlement if its setting have to relearn.
  15. Are yours not already numbered? I know mine are, just checked them to be sure. White tags on them with appropriate numbers.
  16. Well folks its the first time I've seen the video and thats cheered me up for the weekend. Loved the cameo parts "dont worry they dont ban girls", brilliant. To the team keep up the good work its rarely appreciated, thanks to you all.
  17. And so the fun begins, keep in touch and a few pics from over there would be great. Cheers
  18. Dont you just hope that fate will come back with avengeance at these little shites.
  19. Oh dear, so I guess you didn't vote for the azure mafiosa.
  20. And welcome again some good bargains out there.
  21. Aviation fuels cheaper at the moment but it dont half leave a trail of smoke, if you can get seven you can do a Z impression of the red arrows show.
  22. Hi Mate I'm not saing your a troll but I like others did say we would like to see some photos of your car, I and others assume it is an American make because of the KMH statement, we here use MPH so thats why we have that assumption. Clearly instead of skirting around my comment with all this rubbish about where you are and please do note well I was an out worker in these areas 1974 to 1978 with Ruston gas turbines, why after all this time are you still not able to post engine and and body shots of your car? Do you not understand that all of this crap could have been resolved with simple photos that we the members put up daily for those that are genuinely interested. After years of being on this site I have found that those who cannot or will not put up a few pics of there car are taking the p**s. Please do not respond to this if you are incapable of throwing up a few pics of your own showing your problems, we do not want videos from racing shots, I assume you are at least wealthy enough to buy a cheap digital camera. Prove me wrong otherwise hang up you spurs.
