I'd like to join in. I've submitted a friend request to 'The-MilkybarKid' (i'm 'Decepticon_IIOII') Do we supply the cars from our own garage? (I've not raced online before).
-
Is the online race tonight open to anyone? I bought the game a few days ago and quite fancy having a go. EDIT: Just seen a different thread specifically for tonight's race so i'll try there.

May need to borrow some wheels short term....... :-)
chp03bcd replied to Jamesy's topic in Supra Chat
Hi Jamesy, I have the 16" J-spec wheels (loads of tread) i took off my car to be replaced with the ones i bought from you - which are awesome by the way, i must upload some pictures soon. I don't know if they clear UK brakes though but you are welcome to borrow them for as long as you need, seems the least i can do! -

Thanks for all the advice guys. The coolant was changed 18 months ago, the coolant pipes are warm/hot when the engine's up to temperature and the reservior is half full when the engine is cold. I haven't been on any long drives since having it back from the garage. When i start it i let the heaters put out hot air and the temperature gauge seems to be fine. Just have to wait and see if it happens again i guess.
-
Was out driving the car last weekend and i noticed the water temp dial wasn't in the middle of the gauge as it normally is. It slowly crept up to just below the red over about 15 minutes so i pulled over and called the RAC out. On getting it back to a garage they have pressure tested it and it's fine. It's not the head gasket. The heaters put out hot air (though they didn't when the RAC tried them) and the garage can't see to find anything wrong. Has anyone got any thought or suggestions as to what could be at fault? Is it possible for air locks to work themselves out of the system?
-
Cheers, it's a pre-facelift so i'll have a go!

Was looking for some advice on how to remove the old orange side indicators as i want to replace them with new clear ones. They seem pretty well fixed to the car but the general consensus is that is is an easy job to swap them over - any helpful suggestions as to how to go about it?
-
I guess there are many things you can do to a car after it had passed its MOT that would put it in a position where it would fail its MOT the next time round, like removing the cats. I'm hoping got avoid having to do this though and be legal on a good old fashioned technicality. Technically BPU is a little more than just the decatting but i told my insurance company of exactly what i was wanting to change/add to the car (including telling them i would be removing both cats) and they had no issue with it.
-
That's a very useful statement! I guess it would still be possible to fail the MOT on emissions if you were above either the CO or HC values but so long as you shouldn't fail simply for not having any cats then that's chance i have to take. I've already contacted my insurance company to see how much the premium would increase by if i went BPU and found out today, £40 only! Seems like i running out of excuses not too. Is there any advice you guys wish you'd been given before heading down the BPU road or any additional parts you wish you'd bought apart from the basic BPU bits?
-
I am considering going BPU on my 1994 J-Spec TT and was wondering whether it will pass the MOT with no cats in place? I know this question has been asked many times but the answers seem to vary from no, all cars irrespective of age/import require at least one cat to pass, to yes it's fine so long as the tester realises that as it's a pre 1995 import it wont need an emissions test. I was hoping for some clarity! Out of interest has anyone recently passed or failed their MOT with a double decat in place on a J-Spec pre 1995 TT?
-
Yep
-
I like these Veilside ones which are also discontinued - the Andrew Evolution 5

Spotted a silver one on the road just past the entrance to Wilton house and a red aerotop parked in the grass car park across the water. Anyone else make it to the show, there were some great cars?!

When i used to drive without exceeding 2000 rpm on the way to work i used to get nearly 30 mpg compared to 'normal' driving when it was more like 20 mpg. Extremely boring driving at 2000 rpm though.

You also wake up taller than you were the night before
