  1. My pile of Audi bits is growing
  2. I could fix all those faults for under £50 in less than 2 hours. At a garage I would expect to pay no more than £150 all in. All easy bolt off bolt on jobs, nothing anybody who could put a bike together couldn't do.
  3. I phoned Niki and he had nothing, I phoned SFS and they had nothing, I phoned Awesome GTI and theybhad nothing, I even phoned my arch nemesis Bill at Badger 5 and had a flange but not the tube. So I had a rant at Forge and got 10% off and had my pants pulled down for £42. I am going to have to cut 4 inches out of the bloody thing anyway!!!
  4. Problem is there are certain vehicle specific hoses and brackets (like this MAP mount tube) that only Forge make.
  5. Yeah proper pissed me off! 20% of the total in postage and 20% in f**king VAT! I am going to ring them up today and have a rant. Robbing bastards. I was going to order all new IC hoses at the same time but I now refuse to pay 40% more than I have to just because it says Forge on it.
  6. Denied. Mine's fast! I just need to get the Forge MAP tube and then I'm ready to go
  7. Why does your name have hoe in it then? 418 posts and been on here for under 2 years; you can't comment on the aforementioned threads with the same memory I have as you weren't here when they were awesome and not used as agony aunts/"look at how amazing I am but none of these stories are true" posts. I want them back. I miss them. They were great threads
  8. Ben's a miserable bugger and I vote we ban trials hoe; she sounds like a slag.
  9. Not worth the risk IMO. You could buy an MX5 for less than a grand which would teach you how to drive, be just as fun and cost 10x less in the long run. Then when you are done you will always sell it and get your money back, or if you bin it then you've lost a cheap car that you've had lots of fun in. That's the way to go IMO, cheap MX5 and spare set of wheels and do a couple of track days, then buy a set of coilovers, then in a month or so's time a set of buckets and harnesses, another couple of months and a set of big brakes. Before you know it you have progressed from a cheap novice track day to competetive and competent with a great car. Personally I wouldn't risk my daily driver; given the cost of something much better suited like an MX5.
  10. A cracking idea, but it very rarely happens like that. It is said that one mile on track is as good as ten on the road, track cars require such a level of upkeep that to run ond as a daily driver you would be mental. Especially an M5.
  11. You won't find a straighter one for Robins south of £1000; his is lush.
  12. The reasons were that administrators believe that getting rid of the generic topics allows more forum activity and more diverse topics. In reality I think people just don't post as much; TF has been really dull lately. Chit Chat used to be the most active part of the forum. Not in any way shape or form saying I know better than Tom and Danny; but the closure of the Happy and Angry threads is IMO a back step for the forum. Personally I don't post as much on TF anymore due to the inability to just share a happy experience or have a random brain fart in a generic thread.
  13. I'm happy because I refurbished my old lighter this morning
  14. I miss the happy thread, can we please have it back? I actually find myself posting on here less without it.
  15. Got my prices for this WMI group buy if anybody is interested. If we get to 15% discount that means £201 for a stage 1 kit delivered or £269 for a stage 2 progressive kit delivered.
  16. Eventually yes, the Devils Own kits come with a failsafe LED which illuminates in different ways to indicate faults. So you'd know long before it all went wrong.
  17. I know it makes a bit more sense to have it progressive, Mylo's isn't though. He seemed to think that the switch was enough and progressive is unnecessary. We'll see, Mylo and Sam have given me the go-ahead to advertise the group buy on SSS and within the Terrorist Squad so I'll see who wants what and if people want progressive that's what I'll end up with Running yet?
  18. You be wanting some WMI then
  19. For anybody who doesn't know how WMI works to give you a basic run through it cools the air/fuel charge on a chemical level and also raises the octane level of the charge. Best way to explain it is watch this video - And no, it isn't hype it actually does exactly what it says.
  20. AEM is very expensive compared to the Devils Own; both use a 250PSI pump and both are similar quality as far as I can see. All the AEM kit offers is a progressive controller which if mapped in properly I can't see it needing. Anyway, you can upgrade the DO kit to run their progressive controller at any time. DELIVERED I am hoping for £200; Bruce has said to get interest and then let him know numbers and he'll sort it out his end. - Nothing wrong with a second hand clutch, it's done 4K and has less than 0.2mm wear on it. That £60 I've just saved by Prawn upgrading is a tank of fuel, a bag of coke, a Stack boost gauge
  21. Fanx bro. x Proper excited about FMIC and exhaust, will be good to man it up a bit. - I'll post this on here, but I doubt many of you will want it. I've been having talks with a guy called Bruce who imports Devils Own water meth. I've been looking at getting this kit - http://www.alcohol-i...l-stage-1a.html I'm hoping to start up a group buy, if anybody fancies it?
  22. LOL at the slave cylinder, my dad is such a fanny. That clutch ok? Give you it's scrap weight for it?
