  1. really? i just put the same plate into both and i got it £4 cheaper at demon, admittedly i did put a show plate into craigs just so i could add the club web address at the bottom, but the rest was legal
  2. i'll put it on watch as well already got rays so won't be buying in a million years
  3. I wouldn't purchase a Kinetix coffee mug if they made one does that mean you think their HFC's are pap as well ? i have a set, but got them cheap any way, so not to worried, but wouldn't touch any of their manifold stuff
  4. the phantom wheel thief strikes again if sarnie starts flogging off wheels on the forum we know where he got them from
  5. i Measured the internal size for a plate is 305mm x 155 mm i'm probably going to order a plate of around 302 mm x 152mm ish.
  6. my tape measure is in the garage, i'll go get it in a bit and measure up for you
  7. Depends on the condition of your brake cylinders mate, if they are dirty clean them first then I'd use a piece of wood and push it between the old pads (sometimes this is hard and sometimes not) noob question (im an electrical engineer ) how would one clean his brake cylinders? To be honest mate there shouldnt be much of an issue pushing the pistons back...I could push all mine with my fingers. Just remember when you push one, the others will move lol. Try and hold the others with your hand or wood while you push each one back... The only reason the piston could be stuck or slow moving is if the piston seal is damaged or damp has some how got around it. As you will know the brake fluid pushes on the back of the piston. If the brake fluid was to pass around the sides of the piston your brakes wouldnt work very well lol.. All the seal does is keep the surface face of the piston clean from damp and dirt. The seal also aids in pulling the piston back when you release the foot pedal. Alexz just remember to take the lid off the brake fluid reservoir or it won't push back
  8. and if so what sized spacers?
  9. yep camskills and 35 psi all round

  11. 4th line in the advert Quote "And ofcourse wheels have a sensor-transmitter integrated with a valve to inform about presure in each tyre."
  12. welcome to the club, cars not difficult to drive as long as you give it some time to get used to it. lots of safety aids in place to stop you being a complete tit. but if you want to learn to use it properly go and do a airfield taster day. i did one last year for about £46 for the day. big open airfield 1 car out at a time and you can learn to use the car on the limit without risk of smashing it up. as for running cost and is it cheap it depends what you compare it to. compared to a 1.4 fiesta then no its expensive to run. compared to a porshe or lambo then its fairly cheap. full tank of petrol (super unleaded is its preferred drink) is about 80 litres and costing about £85; if all long distance driving with a light foot it will probably get about 30 mpg and do roughly 400 miles. lots of short driving then its more like 20-25 mpg and likely about 250 to 300 miles a tank. permanent hooning i've got it down to 9 mpg on the track and it then drinks the fule a lot quicker
  13. Thats a relief, as i have one on its way, so it should have no problem with the 350GT i hope pm Zmanalex he'll be able to give you the full low down on it. i know very little about it other than it isn't cheap
  14. its a shame they don't go for that price all the time, would make upgrading to 19" such an easy option although i would pay a little extra over the usual £400 as they have the pressure sensors in them if they are the ones i'm thinking of then its a nice bit of kit and usually a good £100 extra to retro fit. so possibly £500 max for them inc shipping
  15. re our convo via PM might be worth getting them with tyres out there. speaking to a friend out there performance tyres are a hell of alot cheaper out there than over here.
  16. good luck with the search, thats a tight budget but its do able, just check them over properly to make sure its not a bag of nails
  17. thats a really nice piece of kit, very tidy looking as for the filter, you can get replacement filter elements for them in a range of colours and not massively expensive once you have the cage like you already have. not sure if they do blue though
  18. "this bloke kept picking holes in sentences i wrote on the internet, so when i next saw him i slammed my fist in to his face" yeah seems to work in normal non internet sentences as well
  19. i do like the fact you can no longer see all the bolt holes it was one of my bug bears with the nismo's get decals on, and like said get some better pics with the light on them and not in the shadow, otherwise your wheel arches look like chasms
