    The display and function is faultless. It's interface and controls are a bit fiddly, being that you only have two buttons to set everything. The buttons are also a little flimsy, but once set up and installed. It's very good. I always thought the LED sweep around the edge was very dim, so I removed the glare film from the inside which has since made it much better. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=185380&highlight=tru+boost+dim
  3. Right, well I've bought one of these for the fog light bulb. The width and length of the LED 'cluster is smaller than the original bulb, so it shouldn't have any fitment issues. With that amount of LED's it should also be bright enough. http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/u38220r-ultra-high-power-single-wide-angle-p-1326.html http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/images/u38220r.jpg I then decided to buy 6 of these for my 4 front side lights to match my HIDS, and two number plate lights http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/ultra-wide-501t10194-ultra-xenon-white-p-1779.html http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/images/u5016hw.jpg I then decided I wasn't quite finished and bought two of these for the interior light http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/uba91w-white-bulb-p-562.html to get rid of the yellow glow and make a nice crisp white light http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/images/ba9white.jpg Thats it for now.
  4. Well, If you consider a new engine or rebuild reasonable. Good for you mate I'd be in tears
  5. That's unbelievable mate. First your turbos, then the engine. Only way I can think it possibly happening is your turbo has disintergrated and bits of it have chewed No'6 up. Of course, I'm probably way off, but the timing of both faults seems too close to just be bad luck.
  6. I have pre facelift rear light clusters, and want to get a proper red LED type bulb for my fog light (reverse light conversion). At the moment, my fog light is pink and will not pass an MOT which is due next month. I just want to know the bulb type or number so I can order the right one. Cheers.
  7. If you buy the lamps from Mr T, you get all new bulbs. If you buy the lights from other traders, you more than likely won't. (My set from Mr T had them, my second set from a trader didn't). one of the bulbs, either dip or main beams are different so will not swap over.
  8. Nice I want some wind deflector things that go over the door that you have.
  9. well thats it then, you were leaking boost. I'd be more concerned now that there's enough oil getting into your intercooler to make it drip. Surely it should just be a fine residue.
  10. I'm not sure a coil pack connection would cause a missfire at just WOT.
  11. Start with the cheapest possible fault first, get the plugs changed and see what happens. If you've recently changed the plugs, or replacing them doesn't cure it, check for fault codes.
  12. Thats 100% genuine insulting tape.

    Seeing as we're just recommending our own cars......I'll suggest mine. Ridox front with Blitz sides.
  14. No, I thought I'd check for damage first before opening a can. Luckily there wasn't any mark left.
  15. Only suggestion is don't go too mad on the interior. For the yellow and black to work without it looking like a giant bee, is stick to the "less is more" motto. The NSX has a colour coded yellow interior for the yellow car, but it was only the seats and carpet. It looks ok, but any more yellow will ruin it. Just stick to hints of yellow, not the whole thing.
  16. This guy was down at the recent Brighton meet. The guy is actually ok to talk to, his modding skills however, leave a lot to be desired. Oh, and he needs to be more careful when he shakes his shellsuit jacket before he puts it on, the zipper pinged the side of my freshly painted supe
  17. Brilliant mate. You're right to think people will appreciate it over here. Thanks for posting. I for one would like to see the build thread too. Stunning
  18. Did she almost get into the wrong side? The kids probably thought it was even cooler that it looked like your 9 year old daughter was driving
  19. Hmmm, those C6's are really growing on me. My next car is a toss up between one of them and a bathurst VXR.
  20. My dad was telling me the other day that predominantly muslim communities in the country, like Bradford for example, will be the start of the push for Sharia law. He said that the local authorities have a majority of Muslim council members on the board and will get the agreements through a majority vote. His rants don't usually bother me, but something about what he was saying struck a cord. I've been thinking about for the last few days and wondering whether his hypothesis could be correct.
  21. He sprayed it lambo orange ages ago........unless he's gone back to pink again.
  22. I'll ask the Driftworks guys as well if you like? I can't promise they'll behave themselves though, when these drift boys get together, there'll be a bit of pack mentality going on. It's your call.
