  1. Just how do you manage to make one of the prettiest small sports cars out of japan in to something that ugly its got more square angles now than an 80's volvo.
  2. Hi and welcome fella as above dont rule out autos especially if you plan on staying relatively stock and if you ever get stuck in a 3 hour traffic jam youll thank the god of gears for the auto box. Chris
  3. Ahaaa a belated hi and welcome andy, yes!!! i know we have met allready and yes still want my wheel and gearstick retrimmed;) but all thats come to a halt at the mo untill my broken trotter has healed. Chris
  4. Love it Mr T could sell that tommorrow as the mk5 and with 500 bhp totally anhilate the gtr in the sales stakes in my opinnion.
  5. They have one in the asda in watford you can actually stand and watch them being made on a production line from start to finish quite amazing and yes they are one tasty do-nut.
  6. Jamie is that the same engine as the vxr8 happened to see one of those the other day looked seriously nice soundd good to. chris
  7. I believe the uk spec turbos very rarely fail catastrophically i,e lots of little pieces if they are looked after properly due to them being steel bladed and not ceramic like the jspec ones mine had done 145k without failing and no blue smoke running 1.2 bar for the last 50k miles. All i did was allow them to warm up cool down properly and oil change every 5k Chris

    Defi gauges

    Mine came with every thing that was needed bar the tape you mentioned i will say though if your doing it yourself be extra carefull when making the hole for the exhaust temp probe as you have to be extra carefull not to get swarf in the exhaust as this will go through the turbo. Chris
  9. Sorry i forgot to mention that i am already BPU in all other areas i.e no cats, boost controller, induction and hybrids.
  10. Very nice speed bumps will become your worst enemy to are you having it colour coded.
  11. Lovely car there mate looks so smooth and clinical when there standard and in white Very nice wheels suit the car well.
  12. Yep agree with that dont bother with drilled not worth the difference better off spending slightly more and upgrading to uk spec with decent grooved discs. I use DBA discs with Carbonetic pads awesome stopping power and they look nice to.
  13. Just out of interest what sort of power increase can you expect to gain by adding a FMIC over a SMIC when running stock TT on a uk spec i ask this question because i am considering the Hks type s for mine at the moment. Assuming all other variables are the same i.e components, external air temps fuelling etc. Cheers chris
  14. That sounds like the line out of twin town lol (whats the diff between a two tone 525 and a ac cobra)
  15. Nice soop there matey love the front very tastefull;) as for the center caps check out mvp motorsports in the traders section i do believe they sell them. Chris

  20. Or picture lol as the case maybe.
  21. I heard about this increase on telly earlier involving tesco and it was about inflating the price of very strong lagers i.e special brew and super t to try and get it off the streets of london lets just hopes thats all.
