  1. i thought they seemed cheap, just wary of buying cheap if its not going to last... just trying to find a cheap way of going forced induction!!!
  2. D'oh! Sorry was having a moment... http://stores.ebay.co.uk/turbo-parts-Ltd
  3. ..any opinions on them? prices/quality etc?
  4. The fans in my mk2 are always blowing the fuse when in traffic, and has caught me out and over heated a number of times. if you turned it off straight away you should be all right. the loud whirring noise might be a knackered water pump? mine howled for a few miles then seized solid.
  5. good for one thing, whack the motor in a proper mini, go like stink then!
  6. Just like to say a big thanks to you guys, got nothing done at work this afternoon!!! video Moderator edit by: TheGoth
  7. i used to do a bit of Tai kwon do but got bored with it when a load of new health and saftey stuff came in, never been as flexible as that since! i carried on with the weights and took up boxing. had to give that neck though as i have changed jobs and now work in a different area, im currently looking for gym round here.
  8. i reckon it'll go the distance, then on points...but i agree it should be a good'un!!
  9. ooooh my bday is 14th thatd be the best pressy ever Me and about 20 mates are going the august weekend, if you go be sure to say hello!
  10. Cheers for the help guys. I took it into Stealth on Saturday, looking at around 200-220 for the work. should be ready in a couple of days...
  11. Don't know yet, i'll bell them later, see what they say. i've been told to expect 25-30 notes a bore...
  12. cheers for the advice guys, think i may have to go to stealth then...
  13. I need someone to bore my VR out to a 3 ltr, can anyone recommend a decent engineering company in the midlands? i've got a lovely set of decomp pistons sitting on my desk!!
  14. Me and 3 girls together making a 'short film' ...unfortunately i now have to carry on drawing a house up on cad
  15. Easy enough to change. just loosen the engine mounts, jack the engine up, add supports, then remove old mount (bit fiddly) then whack in the new one

    i just started one: http://www.myspace.com/ladvr
  17. Got a mate with a caged, stripped out 20v mk2, its black with black wheels and a side exit, it looks as hard as f'ck, especially when he overtakes and blats a flame at you!! my other mates jetta, gives it a tough look: I think side exits are like marmite, love it or hate it!!
  18. Not sure how true the story is but: The story goes this guy bought a farm thats stood empty for 15 years, he moved in and found the barn doors welded up, he broke them open to reveal this: http://forum.autohoje.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=97706&whichpage=7 scroll down for pics
  19. That should go nice mate when its done!
  20. Cheers for the advice, reason i'm running it without the turbo stuff is that it my first full engine rebuild i've done myself, literally i have got a 1000 piece jigsaw in the garage!! so i figured if i put it back in the car and get it running ok sgsin then i'll bolt on the bits, cos if it does'nt run there's more variables to check. (really cos im a bit skint!!!) im running OBD2. i think i may go aftermarket when i get the cash at a later date...
