    pop charger

    Doesnt take long to dry out with a hairdryer. Can have it washed, dried, re-oiled and back on the car in under an hr But if you have the dosh, its a nice luxury not to rush it

    Rim Tape!???

    I start early, leave early, miss the traffic that way. So 7:30am-4pm roughly. Was trying to catch you up to hear your car and see if new bits had been fitted, but you were ready to pull off by the time I got around the stupid Pug! Glad to hear the tyres made it ok, been tracking them on CityLink and they said they werent there yet, was going to phone Tom tomorrow. Hopefully get booked in before Wales
  3. But wheres the kitchen sink?!

    Rim Tape!???

    Doesnt have to be reflective, just buy non-reflective rim tape And if done right, you cant tell its tape unless you are less than a foot away from it. I could only find reflective tape & I'm crap at diy stuff I have some at the moment to try and cover up where my lips have given up, but I'm crap at doing it on car wheels. Its very hard compared to bike wheels

    Vinyl tape that goes around the edge of the rim. Say to make it look like a Time Attack rim. Used mainly on bikes

    +1 good work!
  8. Why do you think I asked if you had a long lunch break I left it to TGM Sport to do mine, the oxy-torch only came out once
  9. Dont think you can get track insurance for the Ring as its not a track, its a public toll road techincally. But many insurers state that its not covered by there insurance too I dont think most people bother with track insurance as the excess is so high. Its helpful if you write off the car though! My mate Ben (MAD7BOY on here) has some kind of insurance where they add the track portion for a little bit each time.
  10. Indeedy! Does well around the Evo triangle too
  11. Definately make sure you find the time to break them in. Its well worth it as the others have said, and especially important if you have uprated pads and discs.
  12. Paul can do it, best PM him for a price though. I'm sure it will work out at less than £200 all in though

  14. Any idea what the caked on crap was? Evo owners eh, just dont take any care of their cars Good job in the end as always
  15. Good luck mate, hope you have a long lunch break to do it in!!
  16. Would be good. Whose our event organiser in that area?
  17. And tbh, it doesnt matter how much sealant you use or wash technique, if you get a stone chip on the laquered part, during wet weather, its game over, trust me I know, my Rotas need a refurb again soon and they had powdercoat laquer on them which is rock solid. Once a chip gets through though, and you get some moisture on there, it will go. Washing and protecting will just slow it down. My Rotas will be going Time Attack style next time around
  18. +1 always worth another watch though! They give the same reaction Amanda did when we did a powerslide @ 65MPH at the CarLimits airfield day for the first time
  19. I definately have. Using Tesco 99RON over their normal stuff, I see more than the extra cost returned in better MPG. I think last time I measured it, 99RON was 1p a mile cheaper than the 95RON stuff, which is more than enough to keep me going there! I have also noticed that when I fill up with BP Ultimax or whatever it is these days, I get slightly more, but not enough to cover the 4-5p/l more it is to buy
  20. That looks feckin awesome mate! I'm sure you will have lots of interest with prices like that. Infact pretty much every panel there ties in nicely with what I have planned Better get saving me pennies!
  21. Sounds like some good upgrades James. Just make sure the numberplate is straight this time
  22. Sounds nothing like your original statement! In fact very confused logic. What hes saying is that although it wont do the best job in the world (ie wont get you the best tune, most power, best torque curve) it will get you a safe tune that wont damage the engine, if the tuner knows the unichip well.
  23. And I'm guessing most of that is text (as you have the main images cached and not many other images are hosted on here - most are on photobucket), that is a hell of a lot of data! And almost 4% usage from iPhones - you big geeks!
