  1. Not wishing to teach you to suck eggs. This has worked well for me in the past. Try it. All nice and polite with a smile... Pop in another visit with the do I want it attitude. If yes ask to meet the current owners (get tham at this vueing if you can; under the just a couple of questions to ask on the property before we decide pretence) and negotiate there and then face to face. Usually people get all flustered and you can offer much less and negotiate. Start at least 10% lower if you have the chance. You always get a deal. Just frount it mate... You then have assured yourself of the
  2. Ooo mine seemed to post more than once... Whilst obviously you will be there for a while. The house opton is always a better option to sell. As most of the guys have said you can do what you want to it later. Extend/convert the garage /etc etc etc. Flats especially with Kids will always mean you have to deal with the neighbours on all sides and above/below . Getting the bikes out for that sunday ride blah blah blah. Plus the house is your own space. I never feel like lts my space no matter how nice they are.... even when I close the door! - if yo see what i mean! So house it is then...
  3. well it is a conspiracy.. I did think at the time perhaps he should have waited a corner but as he showed he let Kimi back passed I think they got it wrong.
  4. part numbes are at the beginning of the thread ...
  5. Richie are you quite a tall boke taking pictures as he came out of the judging tent?? I was there and ther were a cuple or 4 guys taking pics as h set it up .... Just wondered and yes my car of the show also...
  6. Just to echo the comments from above. If you run and operate them within their design specs and maintain them correctly. They work well and are relaible. there are always people who have bad experiences with any items. If you are talking to companies then dont forget stealth and the Phirm. Always speak to 3 m8. As said do you want a very fast car or a vey very fast car? Do you want to build it in stages??? There are many people running both solutions with zero issues. So dont be afraid of the V Just so you know I have a VF9 and it is good quality and works.....
  7. as the guys say great ad give bigpower. if yo after lowr power there are alternates
  8. usually the oil will start to break down around the 120 mark. so that is the fluid limit. But as the guys have said. It should sit down around the 90 mark. It is ok for it to pop up higher if you have a trackday or the likes but the temps of over 100 definately need investigating. If you are talking water temp then middle of the dial all day long...
  9. not bad but I would have hidden the how to spray pics....

  11. well just to add to what the guys have said really. If you have plans to take the next step (stage 3 etc) at some point then all of Lizards information is spot on. I would add dont go mad on the cams the 248 is known as the charger cam... remember you are retarding the engine to run a FI system The VAG clutch is great for the power a stage 2 pushes out. As with all these things in life if you abuse 'em they break so.... Brakes. Well I assume you would have upgraded to some level of fast road set up as a matter of course on a 10 year old car... So really as long as you have a good set up t
  12. let me know and I will see if I can find out for you... If you PM me I will send your message on Cheers
  13. As long as your engine is "healthy" it is well sorted for the 300 horsey mark. As long as you do the oil every 3000 and warm up and cool down and keep the temperatures under control. It is the car you wish they had built If you are worried then do the big things at the same time if they havent already been done. As always it is temperature that kills engines. If it has/and had good oil and water and has been looked after rather than redlined from cold then all is good for you. Sorry to say this again to you but if you get the premium membership (£10) this lets you access more informatio
  14. good job... but can you stand them up next to the car??? My lack of inner eye vision limits me...
  15. LOL I love the fact that the car is golf with a wing.... Who was it that inspired her/them. I know you are on here .... PMSL I do think I will have to abuse this as it obviously aimed at the boy racers however I will be targeting other groups..... I do a lot of miles so loook out middle lane 50mph drivers, taxi drivers, (I genralise and applologies in advance) Those Women who insist on turning right from the left lane.... etc etc etc etc
  16. Sorry Timmy a little confused by your question. All Standard VR6 is a 12V lomp. The OBD level is something different.You will be a level 2 as long as the original angine is in it.. There are ways of checking see FAQs If you're after something different then please post again
  17. Not that easy to answer. Is it new or Used??? How many BHP are you looking to get to? If you splash the tenner and join up as a premium member you can access the FAQ sections on tuning which give you more information on the options available MAf/Maf less etc etc
  18. Unfortunatley these people do not have anything better to do. Now I am a grumpy old man however..... I am a nice guy with it rather than a screaming B_hatch. I to have one of these in my office. She has been rude on many occasions to many people. I now take delight in affecting her day when the occasion demands it. A colleage and I manages to park our company cars (so damage not an issue) so close she couldnt leave to go home and then went in to London with the keys in our Pockets knowing we would be back late. She had to phone a taxi. Another collegue stopped her coming through a door h

  20. I ask you...... DID YOU SEE HIM?????? Why didnt he just start shouting ????? FFS :$ (Hangs head in shame) I am refering to The interview Mr Mclaren did for his upcoming champions league match... No wonder we brits get a bad rep.... Does it just happen as soon as you become a dad??? It made the news...... I assume there will be a link on you tube shortly ... i'll keep my eye open and post it.
