Windscreen fitted.


Tom, you know where i'm putting the sender, oil pressure in the top of the oil filter housing and the oil temp in the sump plug.

 

[davidol]

Im meeting phil tomorrow in llanstriant if anyone wants to pop over and say hi, about 12ish

 

[Forbez]

Ahh, didnt realise you were fitting them in diff places.

Where in wing wong land did you get the sump adaptor then?

 

[Forbez]

No can do sorry lads, im busy tomoz. Would have liked to have been there though.

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Proper overhaul few days hey. Have 4 new coilpacks in, Platinum spark plugs, some 5-40w shell oil, new filter, new fuel filter fitted now too. Just left to do the cambelt and waterpump. Still tempted by HID's too. Must resist.

 

[acidstrato]

keep the car till next crimbo and get some blinding headlamps know u wanna

 

[Daz_gibbo]

I know i'd buy more than just HID's if I did.

 

[davidol]

lol go on daz you know you want too, just finished a couple of jobs on mine, gave it a wash as it needed one big time, touched up some stone chips on the front, fixed the non working horn (foam protecting the wiring under the column going into the slip ring was wedged between the horn ring stopping electrical contact) and a few other bits and peices, polish and wax by dan tomorrow hopefully, new tyres all round in the week and steam clean the seats

feeling better about her now

 

[Daz_gibbo]

Def. need to get together soon for another photoshoot! Not up for tomorrow though. Off to cardiff in a bit for a mad one! don't think were getting picked upo till 4ish

 

[davidol]

should of said daz, was in town last night, didnt stay too long though as I didnt want to spend a fortune!

Waxing on the agenda for today and hopefully steam clean the seats too, need to change the temp sensor in my wing mirror too from a spare mirror i have, its reading a bit too low but im tempted to leave it a few days and see if it settles out a bit.

 

[Daz_gibbo]

We left at 3. Didnt get to bed until 6am. Just got up now. Shattered! Good night though!

 

[davidol]

popped up dans earlier, hes laid down some zymol carbon wax over mine, its looking ace

airbag light is still showing phil, im stumpped, i'll take a look at it later in the week if my vagcom cable turns up, im sure i plugged it back in when i refitted it? lol

 

[PhilW]

It might be a case of checking the engine blocks and looking at the fault codes registered there.

 

[davidol]

how you get on with the HIDs in the end? happy with um?

 

[Forbez]

I think he is from another thread posted.

Gave my car a wash yesterday too, as it needed one desperatly,.

Really could do with a nice dry day, to give it some waxing........

Other news...you Xbox boys, im going live hopefully by the weekend!
Bought deadrising too, its quite a good game.
Dunno what to get next though.

 

[PhilW]

Well happy with the HID's. Piece of piss to fit as well.

Pics of stuff....

 

[acidstrato]

its like a disco inside Phils car

Tom good lad, you can join in with me and my mate when we do the T hunt missions if you like. my mate is **** and its always me who ends up killing everyone, im like ****ing rambo on R6!

daz you should get vegas too!

although i wont lie, after completing single player mode...i only play it online now. graphically and physically its better than GOW and alot more realistic but it doesnt have the same appeal to complete the game again on the harder level as GOW

back to Tom...if you aint got it..GOW!

 

[Forbez]

Phil, whats the chances of the prototype machine, running a second prototype of that gauge holder??

Looking awesome BTW Phil, everything.

My mani arrived this morning, (sorry phil i know i had shotgun, but didn't know you were getting your's done so soon. ) Dunno whether to get Steve to do it, or go to a place in Caerphilly.

Speaking to someone on here the other day, and they had mani, rocker and charge pipe polished for £60! Arrrghhhhh, why is Wales so expensive!!

 

[PhilW]

Probably coz the work is **** tom. Just look at my rocker cover from someone whos apparently 'awesome' at polishing.

 

[davidol]

heads up boys, genuine seat mat sets on ebay for £12.00 + £8.50 delivery, choice of colours for the edge piping and all are brand new I think phil said he paid £40ish for just the drivers mat set so get um whilst you can, won my set earlier, search for "ibiza mats"
