  1. IRC - Nut that you just loosen/tighten. Top of the bracket I think.
  2. Get your windows sprayed, it will look even better
  3. I never disconnected the CP, nor have I heard anyone else mention it. Mines running fine
  4. Takes 20minutes (hour or so first time) Jack the car up, go under passenger side, Locate the slave or line to follow to slave. Disconnect both, Swap over Job done. Couple of bolts to undo, that is all. Tricky part is not letting the clutch fluid drain out. It's the bleeding that takes the longest part.
  5. They all tell the time. So real watch. Just not sure which one is best used to describe my manhood
  6. It would if he was running 'stretch'
  7. Fake, your number 9 is facing the wrong way.
  8. For me it would be quite handy as I want an Agency Power Single exit. But I wouldn't be able to do track days with that exhaust. So Track days I'd be able to silence etc. But no idea on the harm this could cause or if it'd actually work
  9. +1 to the Above, Mouthwash is running the same one I believe on his SC zed, and he loved it.
  10. You're going to need to add min £2/3k to go with your car for a Zed.
  11. Many a large business has been closed down due to profit killing by theft and fraud tactics. It ends up affecting payroll budgets and staff hours/pay. It hurts the little guy more. My store lost £31,000 in stock last year. £40,000 the year before and £45,000 the year before. That's just in stolen stock. That affects our profits. Which currently is £80,000 lower than last year. We hopefully will end up with a small profit, so we consider ourselves lucky not to be one of the stores chosen to close down. Each year therefore we've had our payroll budget cut to even out the loss of profits. Yes some is due to lack of sales, but when rent prices are so high on the high street, and footfall is low. We'd be closed down if we lost another £40,000 in profit as we'd be loss making. Btw we're considers a top 50 profit store out of 170 stores. Not many make a profit. Some stores in my company are losing £300,000 a year net profit. But they can't close them down as they're considered high profile stores. eg in major cities. I'm not in a high profile store, so we're likely to be closed down if we began making a loss. The company has had a freeze on all pay increases in the last three years to help protect the business. Woolworths didn't do that and they pretended everything was okay and that's a reason they went under. So please don't forget that the big companies hire the small guys who need fraud and theft to be cut. Okay pointed noted, but he isn't theoretically stealing is he, as in if he had gone back within 30 days he could of got an exchange. He's doing exactly what would of happened, just a more shady way No change in money would of happened.
  12. I personally don't see veilsides second option as a bad idea Okay lets get it out the way with - yes it's wrong. Had the scenario been this little old lady owns a shop on her own as her husband who built the shop passed away recently, and you had bought an item, realised they wouldn't refund it because you left it too late, then pulled out the switcheroo tactic. Then yes i'd be pi**ed But for me, had OP genuinely been telling the truth, and in fact the goods were damaged at the time of the warehouse/store etc not damaged by the courier, then he should be entitled to a swap/exchange/refund as this is not what he paid for. You can't argue that so many of us buy new parts, especially superchargers etc, come with loads of components, you don't check every last bolt until you go to fitting it. (Which could be weeks/months away) You all know how much of a pain in the arse putting something back in it's original box is For me, Curry's is a large business, should 10 washing machines go missing, I don't even think it would tickle curry's finances. And at the end of the day, all he would be doing is doing what would of happened a month ago, exchanging it for a non damaged product, just except he ran out of time in doing so. Just my opinion by the way (although apparently we have a lot of lawyers in this thread :lol; ) Also OP's from Portsmouth, he will have no problem doing this suggestion
  13. Had a family wedding for the weekend down in South Wales ( Maesteg) We had hired a cottage up in the mountains, so I took advantage of the views
  14. Have a google, hundres of threads with these titles. To sum up There is no negatives to an import, UK's tend to have a few upgrades all which can be done on the imports, if not already, so other than that they are 99% identical. And NO insurance is not drastically dearer than UK's if anything it's some times cheaper, but more less the same price.

    Over fenders

    . The initial plan was to get some over fenders for the rear and blend them in to look 'oem' but further discussion with a friend and planning we realised this won't work or look right due to removing bumpers and side skirts. So now will be doing front and rear fenders YAY GO ME! Also grundy wasnt being mean or sarcastic grundy has spend hours looking into and is probably the best person to speak to about it when ever this topic arises 99% of the forum call it a cheap tacky solution to a problem that shouldn't exist in the first place Perhaps his comment was taken the wrong way. I understand people have their opinions but when someone comes to the forum for genuine help they should respect that whether it's something they would do to their car or not Ideally I'm looking for over fenders that are ready to paint and bolt on. But I do know someone that fabricates aluminium and steel for vintage cars bodywork so could get some custom ones made up. Are you getting custom over fenders made up bud? How are you going about it? Nice apology.

    Over fenders

    You've got your Answer, anything like that comes from States/Japan. There's no UK suppliers. Either go custom or go import. You wont get much response from here other than hate for the idea
  18. Old thread is old. Plenty of people running SMF inc my self, with numerous updated threads knocking around.
  19. There;s hundreds of wheels to choose from. Start off by getting proper sized wheels? why would you want to buy new wheels that ar 8/8.5J Maybe find the wheels you want and then ask? As my taste in wheels is going to be completely different to yours.
  20. But this isnt a Pet, why has this story been blown massive up compared with the Chinese dog festival and the woman who shot her neighbors cat with a bow and arrow What? My point still stands :S I'm not talking about one story, I'm talking about killing animals in general.
  21. They're ****s, end of. 1 is making a living out of it, providing the population with food. Another is just a **** killing a creature because he can. The new Jurassic park sums it up pretty well, where the hunter basically wants to prove he's the alpha. Pathetic, I wouldn't show a sign of remorse if something bad happened to them. At the end of the day, Animal lovers are going to understand this, where as everyday people/non pet fans aren't going to be too fussed by it, and pull out the Farm/Food card.
  22. Exactly that, we know what you mean, but there are so many comments that go on this forum, where you literally have no idea what they're getting at, and it just becomes a guessing game.
  23. Why prime :S Surely Netflix is more popular.
