you'll find the michelin tyres are very popular on here, the PS2's from memory are being phased out, and lots are swapping to the pilot super sports.

its getting more common down south as well. and actually a few of the independants have said they can get the same price as the online places. and then charge less for fitting if they supplied them

yes but apple BT is not full fat BT connectivity for things like OBD dongles and sharing via BT from memory.

heard good stuff about their products, when the dodo runs down its on my too try list

my jag battery is 12 years old, and on its way out fast, its finally struggling with cold cranking now the weather has changed. i did some research into buying this week and i ended up going for a bosch s5 battery. as it comes with a 5 year warranty. i nearly got the exide, as it had a higher CCA and AH but from doing my reading exides rep seems to have slipped. and several places warn off using them. how true this is i don;t know. but the clincher was checking on the jag forum lots reccomend the Varta silvertop battery, which turns out to be made by bosch. i need a fair amount of battery grunt compared to the zed so my new battery which should arrive this week from an online supplier was £105, has 850 CCA and 100AH CCA = cold cranking amps (how much grunt it has to turn over (the higher the better)) AH = amp hours (how long the battery lasts (the higher the better))

i have digimoto 5 at home somewhere, its not free, but i'm lacking the laptop to connect it up to at the moment. but the software can be "found" online

that made me laugh.

thats it the post whore thread, i think thats where alot of my 18,000 posts are lol

paint finishes suffer the same abuse. i've seen the paint go funny on a few, like greekmans. but thats becuase he's heavy on the brakes. if they are clear coat sealed, theortically the oxygen has to acces to the surface which should stop the discolouration under heat. exhausts aren't polished they are stainless, and depending on what grade of stainless depends on how they react with the heat. but most with a bit of autosol polish up fine when dirty. plus they aren't sealed, and th emetal is thinner, so far easier for the heat to penetrate.

did you get a set of 2 or 4, and how much are they? a link to a place to buy?

bang tidy work

have you tried automotive nicotine patches? keep an eye on the oil level, should give you an idea if your burning lots of oil. if you are might be worth changing to a thicker oil. or it could be the bottom end going. these cars have a tendancy for loosing compression and bore wear resulting in loss of oil and eventually an engine rebuild

looks good, is the blue one anything to do with you as well? and

might be best to send them off to be chemically dipped, have a look at bigredd, and ask them just to do the first part. would save you dome work and give you a clean start point. also if you need brembo logos doing drop me a line

ah the failside kit. if you want the original i don;t think they make it any more. but their are copies out there. still not cheap

looks good chaps, nice bit of carpentry skills

you've joined me!

never been a fezza fan, admire the styling and the heritage, but not my kind of lady. i find the engine sounds to high pitched. they tune them to rev so high it alters the noise. i know it sounds funny, but i had a chance to listen to a whole range of super cars at topgear one year with tiff, and the ones that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up were the lambos v10, the sypker V8 (audi V8) maserati V8, and the koinegsegg v12. all the others sound great but certain engines got my juices flowing. sadly none were any of the ferrari's. its a bit like the GTR gaurenteed they are going to be better than a whole heap of cars i like, but neither the GTR or the fezzas do it for me. i'd happily go out in them, have mates take for a test drive, and respect the car. but for me only certain cars have the whole package, looks, presenence and noise. and thats what makes a great car.

lol, glad they arrived safely, i usually have a sticker for the return address, but i forgot to stick it on, i was writing it one handed in the queue at the post office with people behind me. not my finest moment. saying that my hand writing is crap any way, but this particular case was extra crap. i have a thermo printer for labels but wanted to get this out quick to you.so what was on the fron twas my neatest hand writing. once your able to just send me back your old ones. i'll then dip them ready for the next person.
