  1. Whats that song by Shaggy?! "It wasn't me" or something!!
  2. Thanks for all the advice everyone. Off to bed now so i'll pick this up again tomorrow if anyone wants to add Thanks Matt
  3. Thats what i thought but Paul told me differently, i didnt argue legalitys with him as i wanted the car back and he wanted £400 (which i reluctantly paid) for 5 hours labour a battery and an switch of some sort. (altough i paid cash and got £50 off) The battery, 1 hour labour and the switch i was o.k with. But i asked them to swith over the barrells in the locks as they were from the aerotop and he charged me for that it should have been done originally but. I'm not sure specifically if i asked for the box to be checked over.. it was 6 months ago. But i did ask for for them to build me a working car, not just stick things together. I'd assume that any garage would advise of such things or take it on themselves to do it. the job wasnt cheap, about £15k from the top of my head
  4. The box itself is great yes, but i'm told (and you can take this with a pinch of salt as Turbo fit told me) that there is a bit of effort to mount the box as it sits differently through the tunnel. Then there is the wiring, dash and the loom issues.
  5. Technicaly yes, but Morrally No, paul said he would do the work on the car in between paying jobs and hes has done all that has needed to be done appart from a number of things that he didnt get round to doing before i had to take the car away last night to get my VIC test done today. namely the Defi gauges and the AFR gauge. I was expecting to drive away sorted but its not the case. I'm just worried about a number of things, and one is whether now the simple things are done, whether this big thing would be the nail in the coffin
  6. Yeah the contract was with Hyper Sports and Racing, but apprantly Hyper Sports and racing doesnt exist anymore. Its now Hyper Sports and Racing UK. I'd happily pay if its shock damage.. and i know this is going to sound deflamatory but after everything... i dont know if i'd even trust a diagnostic, after all, as said by the new company, they are doing me a favour by looking at the car at all because its a new company!
  7. New it would have been said mate!!
  8. hope no one inteprets that punch line as peodophilic mind. In to days climate and all!!
  9. Indeed, the sole purpose of any mans existence! amen to that!
  10. Scotttttt, Manual is a preferance not a superiority. I'm tempted by a 6speed conversion, but then again i love the auto box. Its more to go wrong and i dont know who i would trust to have it done anyway. Waste is how you define it. Yes there has been alot of money wasted, none of it my choice or desire. If you read anything to do with my car then you will see that half the the money i have spent i never planned to spend. I've been burnt many a time, but you obviously take please in that. As for the rest of the money that has gone into the car that i wanted to spend. Worth every penny and i'd spend it again tomorrow in an instant. I love the car, so i had to revive it each time the sh!t hit the fan
  11. I agree mate, but my faith has dwindled, on the flip side, might the grief be saved if i jsut took it else where and cut my losses? There is also another problem. Chris who owned Hyper Sports and Racing Ltd has sold the company and pretty much done a runner. The company is now apparantly a new entity owned by Paul; (one of the mechanics from Hyper) Hyper Sports and Racing UK Ltd. Wish i was as talented with mechanics as you Tony.
  12. see how easy it is to get you to bite! And what did you hope to achieve? the fact that you need to raise it (probably self denial or something) speaks volumes about you Everyone at work thinks the whole car thing is sad. I have a lad at work that doesnt understand my fasination with cars, yet he was equally excited at the prospect of GTA4's release. variety is the spice of life. the fact that you came on here last year putting =op at the end of every post of yours is sad. get over it! its a great game and i cant wait for it. I was being courteous and typing Scot as it was obviously how you wanted it to be written seen as your user name was missing a T. But that seems to be lost on you. You cant try and justify that you didn't plainly miss a T out at registration and typed Scotster instead of Scottster And yes i am ignorant to you, because taking notice of every ant walking down the hill is a waste of time
  13. yeah i was thinking plugs, but hyper said they had changed the plugs and it was running fine... maybe i should take a look at them. It does seem to be something like that but then again i dont know. turned her over today and seemed to be ideling fine aside from the missing issue
  14. Supppose if you have to have an original 6 speed aero you got to have an original 6 speed aero!
  15. Make sure you dont let him get hungry, because You'll wake up one morning and think its still night time, then when you try to walk out the room the door will be locked.... because your in his belly!! big reptile that mate!!
  16. Thats an odd one. for someone to import at American car over to Japan..
  17. You come on an innocent thread and post up a ridiculous comment! of course i'm going respond! If you can't spell it yourself you cant expect me to!! best PM a mod to change your user name!!
  18. you dont say! funny how that joke thing works your my hero Scot=op, i wanna be just like you! You know what, even though i'm only 24, you have inspired me to go out there and get married then... umm. look forward to the important things is life.. yes thats it. umm, its what i like to do with my spare cash Scot=op, stupid would have been to get in debt over it. but obviously its my only comfort in life, that and looking forward to computer games!! Get of teh computer and spend time with your wife
  19. Are you for real?! No i've never stepped foot outside the door, obviously such a thread full of boundless information about my life can give such an impression that yes indeed, i am a recluse. wow. btw, theres more to life than modifying a 15 year old car mate! get out and seek that oppor-not-a-word-ity
  20. Its been a while Doug. My brief was: Transplant everything from one car to the other and F"ck it up royally seriously, what sort of question is that
  21. Nope Nope Sees to hate everthing nintendo. funny tho!
