    Best .GIF ever.

    LOL , very funny!
  3. Have you tried resetting the ECU, not familiar with the vehicle but worth a try.
  4. I'm after sending a small parcel to the States. Approx 200mm x 150mm x 150mm, 1Kg max weight. I prefer some sort of tracking, delivered in a week or so would be fine. Any ideas which would be the best and of course cheapest. Thanks
  5. Bought one on Saturday. Only wanted it for the drying rince facility, I washed it with normal car shampoo then used the Flash thing. I've got a red car and water marks easily show. It worked. Rinced it off and let it dry naturally, no water marks at all!
  6. You'll get everything you need including a pressure sensor. http://www.defi-shop.com/product/meter/meter_parts_si.html#turbo
  7. Stock gapping is 1.1mm, BPU is 0.85 (higher boost/cat removal requires the smaller gap).
  8. Another reason for a "YAWN" smilie
  9. That's pretty typical then! Cheers, that's what I normally do. I've already got some ethylene glycol based antifreeze, no way I'm spending three times as much for the Forlife stuff - waste of money!
  10. Anyone know why you should use Forlife stuff instead of normal ethylene glycol based antifreeze? Why Red for J Spec and Green for UK Spec? Also, anyone drained the coolant. How easy is the access to the drain plug on the block? Ta

    FFS Jordan!

    Yes, definately got one of them!
  12. NGK plugs, I got a set of 6 for £10.43 NGKBKR7E(6097) at Brown Brothers Motor Factors. They have branches throughout the country.
  13. Easy to install FCD! Someone was selling a muffler on Ebay the other day, here it is: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=10428&item=4547078327&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

    which supra?

    You are right, the aero only came with auto!
  15. Also here, in different colours!
  16. No special way to do it, not very easy access though. Long extensions and universal joints on the socket wrench. They weren't very tight on my 97 car, after reading up on the subject on here a lot of the early cars had the studs shearing off. As long as your prepared for this happening. Like others have said take it to Chris Wilson , he's done this loads of times and has the replacement studs in stock. At least you'll get it done right!
  17. Amazing, l would've liked to see the smile on his face!
  18. Are you speaking from experience though, I'm not sure as I've never used it.

    Tesco 99Ron

    Engine bay fuse box, remove the EFI 1 fuse for 30s or longer. It is safe to do!
  20. Loads of people on here like it, can't imagine Flash making something that would be bad for the paintwork! http://www.tyresmoke.net/ubbthreads/showflat.php/Cat/1,2,12,15,22,25,26,27,7/Number/381008/page/0/fpart/1/vc/1 This bloke bought this ionic rince thing : He said : "Haven't tried the Flash product, but recently acquired a filter thingy from Ionic Systems. I was a bit sceptical beforehand as it's effectiveness, but it was absolutely superb. The paintwork looked stunning with a deep bright lustre and there was not a single water stain to be seen. I'm even looking forward to washing her again. " http://www.ionicsystems.com/cars/home/index.htm
  21. PMSL I've heard some people use their own shampoo, and just use the water rinse from the Flash thing!
  22. Using good quality fuel like Optimax will clean it and keep it that way.
  23. Same one that most of you southerners have for Conservatives I would think!
