  4. A woman and a man are involved in a car accident; it's a bad one. Both of their cars are totally demolished but amazingly neither of them are hurt. After they crawl out of their cars, the woman says, "So you're a man. That's interesting. I'm a woman. Wow, just look at our cars! There's nothing left, but we're unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace for the rest of our days". Flattered, the man replied: "Oh yes, I agree with you completely! This must be a sign from God!" The woman continued, "and look at this, here's another mirac

  14. i have had a problem recently with a crunching synchro into second it is gradually getting worse so decided at some point to drop the box of and replace the synchro. thought that while im their id be aswell killing 2 birds with one stone. wondering what i would need to replace in order to increase the speed of acceleration? is it a matter of just swapping cogs for slightly lager ones or changing the diff aswell?
  15. well doulbe checked and the car only ever does it when i de-cellerate never ever when the clutch is in! when i pull away froma junction and accelerate to 30 the back of CLUNK and i accelerate again and then let off clunk again but even if a play with the throttle accelerating hard it only does it on decelleration!
  16. well splitter was painted 3 months ago not a scratch on it and iv hit more than one thing.its called painting it properly 15 coats on that baby. if a jobs worth doing it's worth doing well!! yes it's a raceland manifold need to get it ported a bit before i fit it cos loads of sharp edges at the joins!! bought from ebay! colour coding is the way ahead

  24. i recently bought a set of mk4 style lights problem is my cars plug for the headlights is a vertical one with 4 pins one above the other and the mk4 ones have 4 pins arranged in a square. i believe u can get adapters to sort this but need to know where from?? could do with getting this done now cos want to fit all the new bits at the same time.
  25. well it could just be the tensioner that keeps it tight or could need a new chain. what mileage has ur car done?? did the noise just appear all of a sudden or has it gradually louder and louder?? sorry to ruin ur sunday mate but would hold back driving it till u get it checked out!
