  1. Ok its a usal question asked for opinions. Next week im refurbing the polished lips on my wheels and replacing all the rusty bolts.... While the wheels are off i might aswell redo the calipers as the paint has started to ware on them. At the moment there batside blue to match the car, but bayside blue isnt a colour on the shelfs! Iv used Foliatec on previous cars and have been impressed with the results so the colours that will go best is: Red Blue Silver Black Metallic Carbon Grey http://img381.imageshack.us/img381/6566/caliperpaintcolour.jpg What colour do you think i should do them in?? Iv made a poll so you dont have to leave a comment if you dont wish to, but thoughts would be appreciated. Im thinking blue but it will be the wrong shade of blue and might stand out a lil wiard. Thanks Paul
  2. hi all just in a snooker club and were discusing a rule if some one fauls i.e: miss the ball or pot the wrong colour without the white being potted, can the white be respotted in the D? thanks

  4. Next week i want to replace all my rusted bolts in my split rims and while there apart i mite as well give the polished lips a good machine polish. As its a one off thing i dont really want to spunk out £50 on a machine polisher. So i found these on the net: MOTRAX BUFFY BALL POLISH DRILL ATTACHMENT http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/6122/99424610.jpg http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/3727/87395944.jpg http://www.jc-motorcycle-accessories.co.uk/shop/1336_185/1/top_motorcycling_gadgets/motrax_buffy_ball_polishing_wheel_drill_attachment.htm & http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MOTRAX-BUFFY-BALL-POLISH-DRILL-ATTACHMENT-MOTORCYCLE_W0QQitemZ180465160188QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Motorcycle_Parts?hash=item2a048fcffc Has anyone used these before? Now with polishing the lip i will wanna press quite firmly and it looks like you can as you can see in one of these pics? Any thoughts? Thanks Paul
  5. iv been looking for one of these for weeks! with the indercators in the rear bumper for vintage fun look...... oh hold on is that a front bumper? Ah balls thought if found what im looking for lol
  6. yer im goin with nic on the is one, rubber can be sprayed but as its flexiable i see it just flaking and looking patchy and naff over a matter of weeks so look into buying some
  7. yer i fitted the new dials in december... will check the plug out thanks
  8. yer i like it! i think colour coding the dash looks cool
  9. if the lights are on it wont be the ignition switch saying that in my corrado i had a problem with turning the key on and the dash lights come on, but turn to start and nothing. Give it a jiggle and it worked but then after a few months just didnt start. Found out it was he ingtion barrel, but i dont think that would be the problem in this case Sounds stupid but....have u checked all fuses? Maybe a relay problem
  10. Its a terriable controller i feel! The triggers are to far in so when you go to iron sights your for finger hits the top button and throws a flash bang. The analog stick springs are to strong. its like holding a brick.. I wont hardly use them lol but i feel they could have been designed a lol better lol
  11. completely died now any other ideas than the converter ? Cheers
  12. thought that mite sort it glad to see it all workinh
  13. hay all. ok my microsoft keyboard work in the menus but not in actual game due to not being able to customise the controls but the x box is compatable with a key board in the dashboard
  14. deffo! i had a extremo quick G60, wasnt any plain G60 though lol well if u done the dub, u got a supe, own a golf.... dam boy what do u want haha I wouldnt suggest a 300zx for the budget at £1k, you would end up getting 10 miles out of it lol... i have an idea, go to piston heads, click on classifed, click on advanced search then type in your budget and spend some moments looking through!
  15. 1st thought that came into my head is there isnt enough boost to open the valve... if u sure it used to open at low standing rev (would be a weak spring if so lol) But the baily valves are easy to service yourself, i used to do mine all the time on my corrado, as oil builds up sometimes and make the piston in the BOV all sticky at the sides causing the valve to need more boost to open up as quick. Your valve is a lil different to the one i had, but all i had to do is unscrew the allen keys at the top. The top will pop up from the pressure from the sring so hold it together as u take out the screws. you will see how simple the contruction on the valve is as only 2 parts will come out, the spring and the piston (cycler shapped peice of metal) get one disk brake cleaner in a can and some kitchen role ad clean away And then when its all shiny and looking new, reassemble and see what happens. But it deffo wont be the spring gone, if it is it will open even easyer!
  16. haha only if it could start walking... or if it fell over that would have been dam funny lol
