  1. Just got an email from UPS saying my order for the 'zorst is being processed as of today. I have no idea if that means it is on the way to the garage as of today or the 7-10 day delivery window starts as of today. Hope it's the former! I've contact Chris at Tarmac for details.
  2. I've scraped the bottom coming out of multi story car parks - and my car is stock height! Unavoidable in some places unfortunately. And yes Andy, should be fitted and purring nicely by then. Still crossing fingers that it arrives today or tomorrow at Tarmac and gets to the garage latest Saturday.
  3. How about the 22nd? We had a good turn-out yesterday so Tuesdays seem a good bet.
  4. All the best, at least you will be free of Zedditis for a while!
  5. Would have to be after the 17th for me to make it, hopefully away from the 31st to the 16th.
  6. How about the 17th? It's a Thursday. In one of the pubs that have been short-listed - preferably somewhere with good lighting. Thoughts?
  7. I can't seem to get hold of them in the UK unfortunately.
  8. That's a relief, was researching this today. Cheers.
  9. 1) Apoc124 2) MarkSt (6:30??) 3) SUPRAWOOKIE (will come at 6:30 so MarkSt isn't lonely!) 4) Andy_Muxlow 5) Matt89 6) OliverB 7) Nate 8) Kay & Ash 9) kbad 10) SecretStar I may get there early if work allows, get to work on the oily carpet *ahem*
  10. Cheers Paul, I'm hoping I can salvage the one I have as it has red trim and all that to match the car. If not I'll give you a shout!
  11. Funnily enough that's exactly what I used on the mat! It comes out but in thick blobs, completely lubes up the hands so can't touch anything after! Annoyingly it has left a lighter patch at the front end of the mat, hopefully that'll come out when I have another go at it tonight/tomorrow. Cheers for the help gents.
  12. Not sure if you've got this fixed or not as it was a while back, but I had the same issue. I sent my ECU to Horsham Developments, they disabled the immobiliser check, now starts just fine. The red light stays on when I'm driving (the immobiliser/alarm indicator light) but I've learnt to live with that. Also, the OEM headunit would occasionally sit in 'Secure' mode, which means it doesn't do anything - that fixed itself after 3 months happily enough. Please let me know if you got it sorted.
  13. Might be worth running a compression test if you do find the oil dropping quickly. I have a Rev-up so know all about oil issues! (Looking to do a full engine refurb though, hopefully you don't need anything so drastic)
  14. So I had a bottle of engine oil in the footwell for a quick journey. Turns out it leaked. Took out the mat and gave it a good rinse with soapy water, proper effort required to get the worst out. Question is, how to get it out of the foot-well carpet, as some seeped through. Thoughts?

    Getting 27-30 based on the right foot.
  16. I've just bought one! What tragic timing. GLWTS.
  17. Hang on, why were you guys putting your lights in an oven?!
  18. That's not so bad, how often is a change required? Don't worry, if I do give in to my S/C itch, it'll be following a full engine refurb and forged pistons & rods.
  19. Has the higher operating temperature of the V3 been an reported as an issue for anyone? The changing of the oil for the SC does sound like a hassle, although as my engine is currently burning oil perhaps it would be a better option for 2006 models!
  20. Been following this and similar lists. Must say I was surprised that Wizard was running 450bhp on stock internals, I was always of the understanding that 400 was the safe max and that's a 9psi! Hope the rebuild goes well.
  21. Oh that has already been done at the last meet! Might be rocking a blue LED in the boot, just to be different!
  22. Probably should've, although my understanding is the oil is burning so wouldn't be catching much! It is something rather more entertaining.
  23. I might have ordered a certain something, won't be arriving in time for the 18th but...when's the next meet after this?
