  1. Hey Bealieboy, just had a thought about "that" pub. The car park was pretty packed when we went. There will be a few more motors showing up this time.....food for thought
  2. I'll not breach the limit dictated by the law of the land
  3. Air cooled crew = parked at the side of the road with hazard lights flashing
  4. It's ok buddy, I've got you covered. I'll bring a portable worshipping device, we can at least watch songs of praise whilst the rollers are operating.
  5. Plus I was a little bit too distracted to remember to do something sensible like mark where it was..
  6. Erm dunno, and no.... But I do have one of those car/road oriented brains that will be able to remember where it is just by feeling the road.
  7. Bealieboy, are you thinking of heading to "that" pub?
  8. Interesting, it's very similar to mine (old k&n n' all) except the 24v. So I guess it's OBD2, or it will be when the 24v ecu arrives. Does it drive any different than the 12v (more torque? and if so where in the rev range?)
  9. How much torque did you roll? I'm hoping to breach the 200 mark. 229 eh, I'd be interested to know what else you've done to yours.
  10. Yes mate OL6, I'll give you a shout next time I'm up there for a coffee/pint.
  11. You'll have to add on at least another half hour to that journey time to stealth, Bealieboy only drives at 55mph MAX.
  12. LOL. Hey CABBS I've also got spare black leather door cards front and back lying around for a 5 door too. Just got back from your neck of the woods today too CABBS, (have fun in the inbound snow) OL6 The TB came with the rado inlet manifold, when I put it on first time round poor V6 was getting starved of fuel, so the throttle was like a digital switch (1 or 0) Hopefully that will be remedied for March. I'm looking to roll more horses than you Bealieboy this time round, last time out I was like I was told by Stealth that this TB is like Rocking Horse Sh1t, should be pretty easy to find anothe
  13. I've decided to get my golf a late Christmas pressie, so I wanna roll to see what difference it makes. Add me to the list please bud. @ Bealieboy, I won't be outdone this time on pony power, or lb/ft....
  14. that's the true test isn't it, now it's official. Now I noticed that you/she didn't specify whether the plane has a prop or not...
  15. Songs of praise!! NOT to be missed. I'm sure she'll be showing up, the new technique for co-piloting is to sit with eyes firmly closed only concentrating on the loud music and pretend that we're flying. Makes for a poor map reader. Our collective twaddle indeed..
  16. I can't wait to hear it run!! I'll PM you nearer the time, there's a chance I might be staying in the midlands the night before...
  17. The BMX is in the body shop at the moment, handle bars need adjusting so it might not be back in time. Cheers mate,
  18. Lol co-pilot has been informed but confirmed that it's too far away to say. As long as there aren't any narrow angle V6 diesel engines running I'm sure she'll be happy listening to your twaddle
  19. I'm in, I won't roll though. Not sure whether to bring the oil burner or stereo-less VR
  20. All of the above I think that on the initial 2000rpm - 4000rpm yours had a proper V burble, much more than mine. That BMC sounded awesome on induction (now No.1 on my list). Exhaust-wise I have kept 2 boxes (back and middle) as I do a lot of touring in mine. When you open the throttle it's a different story though. It's a Long Life 2.5" system.
  21. Ha, co driver was sh1tting herself as usual, although afraid I think there's a speed addiction developing there. Good to see Bennyk and yourself Bealieboy. Thanks Bennyk for helping sort my flapping golf out. Had to leave the boot unlocked over night, but uncle Clifford was still working so not all bad, and crucially windows stayed UP!!.
  22. Hey Bealieboy, awesome morning, perfect meeting point the sarnies really helped me survive the day yeah the VR's in now getting a new central locking module, and a stern telling off for embarrassing me in front of those Astra owners lol. Ok so my old OBD 1 ran a stellar 187.9 hp and 187lb ft of torque I will certainly be changing some hardware (BMC CDA, HT Leads) plus others to help me beat the marker young Bealieboy has laid down.
