  1. For largest diameter, not really sure - depends if you are going to wrap over the existing black conduit imguess.

    I little birdie tells me you are also at the Shed of Zed this Saturday?...you can check out my engine bay if you like as i have used the plastic conduit.....just orange not blue :)

     

    "Just orange"? "JUST orange"??? :scare: How very dare you! :teeth:

     

    Yellow i best stick with blue or yellow or if i pick orange i swear im gonna see the Hulk come outta this guy lol :p

  2. Thanks for the reply guys. I guess il go with mobil 1 beings im saving on labour costs doing it myself I guess I can spend a lil more..

    I live in walking distance to sure parts who supply all the local garages. So I guess im going straight to the distributer. No doubt their have all the other service parts.. im just googling the correct ngk plugs. But no doubt their computer will match just fine.

  3. Hi im buying all the servicing parts i need tomorrow to do it diy and save a bunch of money from labour costs (DW i believe im a decent hobbyist mechanic :p)

     

    anyways after reading far too many reviews on the ole interweb, im going with Mobil but here is the catch which one, after putting my reg in the halfords oil finder its thrown up these choices --

     

    £23.99 Mobil - Super 3000 x1 formula 5/30 5L Fully Synth

     

    or

     

    £41.59 Mobil 1 ESP formula 5/30 5L Fully synth

     

    For occasional weekend/sunny day cruising..

     

    argh choices

  5. Not sure how many people are in your office, but these phrases should exclude you from any future conversations:

     

    "Eat too much over Christmas did we"? (Whilst pointing at their waistline).

    "That eye shadow really doesn't suit you"

    "Did you get your hair done at the weekend? No? You should of done".

    "I don't think that's your colour is it really"?

    "Did you see the new series of Dancing on Ice? I didn't as the paint I was watching was still drying"

     

    And if all else fails....

     

    "Hey, let's talk about cars"

    Hey F1 is going Turbo this year

    Oh you dont follow it...

    Will Rossi see any success this season..

    Oh you dont watch bikes......

     

    Oh you like footy....

     

    Sigh

  6. 2 hours to go!! I got a Radio on my desk linked to Stratford town cctv room... looks like weve had a few kick offs tonight... even heard on the airways a guy laying a girl out in the road and not the sexy sort of lay either.. for how nice Stratford is in the day... its just like anywhere else you put nightclubs bars n booze.. oh dont forgot to add lads to that equation !!

  7. You should have a last man out switch which should stay on until you leave. Speak to your health and safety team.

    We do have this switch on our lcd panel.. however the damn offices on level 4 are on switches and other random rooms.. its part of my ai instructions.. the building I look after is historic and no doubt owned by secret handshake people lol.. no tbf the building has a plaque stating when it was opened by the Grandmaster of the lodge..

     

    So il just carry on with the current ai

  8. Hello, ok im trying to get my head around whats better when looking at torches? is it the million candle power or the lumens number!

     

    example this product is 3.5 mill candle power http://www.diy.com/nav/fix/handtools/torches-work-lights/torches/Diall-3-5-Million-Candle-Power-Torch-12508626?skuId=13029332

     

    or a product like a maglite like this one http://www.diy.com/nav/fix/handtools/torches-work-lights/torches/Pro-Series-Cree-210-Lumens-11227532?skuId=11738236

     

    ideally whats the best at lighting up space like rooms and hallways!

     

    as im the last man out of a 5 story building, even though most the lights are on PIR mainly hallways but i still managed to trip up some steps on my last shift using the light from my phone,

     

    so what you reckon i should go for ?

  9. Forgive me, i have just finished packing up after doing security for a Richard Dawkins event!

     

    but yes forgive me i cant quite put my finger on what car this is, and wouldnt want to embarrass myself openly with what i believe it to be, but its fair tasty for a first car!!

     

     

    My first/previous car :(, although it was slow was good fun,

    Now It's being mistreated by some young dousche

     

    FTO methinks.

     

    Mivec 2ltr one was quite rapid from what I remember.

     

    Still on my hit list to own one

     

    ok i was thinking mitsi FTO, but this looks diff well better then the only mivec FTO ive ever seen which was a red one owned by a colleague back at evesham technology when it was around!

     

    im pondering why he said it was slow, i thought this car had its equivalent of VTEC yo!

  10. Anyone on this forum play Grid2, or for that matter on steam?

     

    im slightly new to new it myself after coming off xbox 360 having what people call "having a hiatus" from pc's and pc gaming in general

     

    anywho

     

    i havent looked how you add friends other than people you meet in game!

     

    so if you on steam and have Grid2 hit me up

     

    my in game user is Rob350z{R.I.P}PaulWalker if you ever see me online!

  11. Just to be clear THAT WAS A JOKE!!! DO NOT put WD40 on your brakes!

     

    Lol I said same thing to my dad couple days back.. I really hope no one actually does this!

     

    As above the mentioned copper slip.. hmm maybe an all purpose grease would be better.. ok I cant even joke with this.. would hate for some one to actually grease their discs !

  12. I like the idea's but i live in Redditch, the thought has crossed my mind a couple runs around the block n back!

     

    but this is Redditch and the police have a habit of being somewhere on my route like yesterday they were randomly parked up at the exit to my close!

     

    so you can see why im reluctant to drive without an MOT,, i guess after thinking this through legally all i can do is wait until the day i book the MOT and then take the scenic route to the test station!

     

    but im still freaking out jeez in one more month are my discs gonna be a beautiful suntanned golden brown lol

     

    Rob

  13. Morning peeps

     

    As the title says,, what do i do!

     

    my car has been sat since end of oct nicely in my garage! but this is freaking me out, is this going to cause an mot failure, is there anything i can do to stop this other than "drive your car and brake alot"?

     

    im thinking of booking an MOT after Jan the 11th payday! but im getting really concerned at how rusty looking my discs are getting.

     

    other than that il be taking the car out the garage in a min, ive spent all week applying the Turtle wax black box kit to the car review to follow!
