    Speedo

    mines out by 6 mph. don't forget its a safety feature, most normal people, (especially before the days of satnav) would be none the wiser. so if your speedo said 70 you though you were doing seventy. but most likely it was 65. it means on those odd occassions you weren't watching your speedo like a hawk and were accidently doing 74 and you went past mr plod or a camera, you didn't get points or a fine as you were still under the speed limit. i use my satnav speed when travelling through average speed areas as it means i can overtake the normal people while still being at the correct speed.
  3. stop rubbing it in. i end up getting mine 6 monthly as i can't afford it all in one hit
  4. same stuff i use. its excellent stuff.
  5. i must admit i thought everyone was the same and that it was actually as long as the distance between the tip of your thumb to the tip of your little finger when both are stretched as far away from each other as possible. (like when your making the fake phonecall sign with your hand). i always remember that mine is the same as the length from my wrist to my elbow,
  6. i laughed so much at that, a little bit of wee came out
  7. looking really good, glad to see its taking shape. i got off my arse today and have started the progress on my big mods. will ppost up in abit.
  8. lol, at least you stopped p!$$ing on the carpet.
  9. i'm the same, average 25 normally, but get a good, 32 on a long drive.
  10. they do good work there. would reccomend them to anyone.
  11. "willy stuck out in the open, need assistance" "can you get it to titan uranus" "not at this range we can't"
  12. some of those are terrible. others quite good.
  13. mr bigglesworth fluffykins
  14. i use the nxt car wash which is good, and i use stage 2 and 3, not seen the paint cleaner before. i think the megs wax is good. maynot last as long as some other waxs, but lasts longer than you cheap stuff. same as me its a good starting set.
  15. would love to go and watch the TT race, i entered the opie compertition to try and get to the superbike race.
  16. i wasn't slating the rex, i was just stating a fact. someone said they don't use any oil, someone else who owned one said how much they used. i made a comparison blah blah blah. just because they use oil doesn't make it a bad car. i love the wankle engine and think its a genius piece of engineering. i'm also impressed with the renesis engine that they seem to have fixed the old issue of the carbon tips wearing away and the engine needing a rebuild at 60,000 miles. oil useage in a car is only an issue for someone who never checks their oil. you need to stop being so touchey they are a good car and everyone knows it. never heard anyone saying oh them rx8's are crap. all i hear is how they rev to 9000 and are great to drive.
  17. good too know, its what i'm going to do to mine soon but also lower it on eibachs at the same time.
  18. who the hell calls a ship that
  19. am interested to see what this ends up going for, its a lovely bit of kit.
  20. the rx8 is meant to be good and would give you your seats. i'm in a similiar situation my wife and i would like kids at some point, but the good thing is i get to keep mine and we use hers as the family car if it came to that time in our lives.
  21. welcome to british politics.
  22. must admit i do love that GTR style front bumper, especially where they blacked out parts of the bumper to enhance the look. i actually use this as my desktop at home
  23. it was only an airfield day, so the car probably only did about 15 runs in the day, each just over a minute, so say about 20 mins worth of hard driving 8.3 is impressive
  24. first thing i did was look at my thumb i had a mate who lost his thumb in a machine accident, he's stuffed on that test
  25. because your putting that bearing under increased load with the lateral force of turning in that direction. good test for a wheel bearing is when parked get hold of the top of the tyre and give the wheel a good shake if you can feel movement backwards and forwards then the wheel bearing is on its way out.
