Prawny Baby

Brake pipe ordered! Hopefully finishing work a bit early tomorrow so I can get to the nut n bolt shop and get the nuts and bolts I'm missing from the front suspension. Does anyone know what size the bushes are in Mini spec Gaz coilovers? Mine are all a bit shot to be honest, so worth replacing whilst it's all apart. if anyone has a set of metro 4 pots and fancies a set of Fiesta brakes then let me know! I'm looking to upsize again

well, I cleared my garage out yesterday, so I've actually seen the Mini for the first time in 18 months. Its a start! need to order a brake pipe, anda few nuts n bolts, then we should be back in business!

Thanks for the kind words chaps. Inters was fun, had a good few cracks at the strip, I'm useless at it, as is my stupid wrong wheel drive car, so a best time of 13.7 @110 was posted. I ran a 14.01 at 112.9 too, which from the terminals shows the car has power, but times are poor due to a truly terrible launch. Still, was enjoyable, and met loads of people. Saw Dan's car parked up looking ultra smart and clean, Somhow missed your audi though Rich Wing is an experiment, some people may remember a slight 'incident' exactly 1 year ago today in which the back end went a little light. i've never been happy with high speed stability since, so decided to try and address it. I'm under no illusion the wing looks good, or that it's even highely effective, but it's something to test and mess about with, and is only the start of a rather extensive plan.

Will be fine with a stock DMF and pressure plate. Tuffty runs this, feels OE

Who doesn't like him Alex? I agree with you, Monkey is awesome!

It would appear Mr Miller is having doubts about being able to pay for the brakes, not that he has told me this yet , despite them already being in his posession. As far as I'm concerned Phil has bought them, but if for any reason he needs to shift them on again to pay me off then perhaps you or jardo could jump in there for the steal!

Phil has a set of brembos he has bought from me. He's had them for over a month now, and not yet fitted them, or paid for them as it happens....

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, tough one.

Issams rod package cna't be beaten on price. The bloke is a twat, but he's cheap, and if you get the goods ever, they're top quality it has to be said. Just too much water under the bridge to ever truly trust him sadly. 02M stuff for georges car is expensive jardo, taht's why it all adds up so quick, not like our cheap crap

I hate VTECs, not because theres anything wrong with them, I just don't like how blinkered the owners are

Went to Ace Cafe last night. Had a really good evening Amazing how a decent camera makes it look so much nicer

No, worryingly I use it fairly often at work, which I think makes me a cock. D'oh.

I know there's a lot to be said for Jardo baiting, but come on Dan, really, declare a decat? what planet are you on pal? I suggest you jump on the first elevator back down to planet earth, and leave your crazy ideas up up there on the moral high ground. it's a 'Sports exhaust' with a downpipe if you like, but you can't declare a decat.

Just fix your standard one you monkey. Nothing needs upgrading, just looking after!

It's either that or an A3, which thanks to my distasteful orange stickers, and your general being a wanker, are widely renouned for being owned by complete wankers

Wow, that went cheap Adam! Is that all they're worth then?

How incredibly rude ads :'( we can't all have something with as much straight line speed as the mighty mx5

Adams mx5!!!!!

Very broken ads. Stuck right down

Soooooo. Anyone want that cup of tea? How's the weather where you are boys?

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Anyone fancy a cup of tea?

Ah that's cool man, just you seemt to have a string of nice fancy cars, and I was thinking if money is the issue when maybe a cash sale / Personal loan on a 10k used car could make more sense than 25k of finance on a newun. Still, so long as you're happy, that's what matters Fun is one word for the A3 in the wet, another word you could use would be 'useless' or 'dangerous'

24 hours have passed, car is still awesome: Goes OK too, although it's not easy changing gear and filming, even when you are on an airfield. Why did you get rid of the Golf mate? insurance? Would it not make more sense to get something used rather than all these brand new cars?

Damn right George! Jamie is going to do both bumpers and my spoiler if /when it ever arrives! I could do with a new bumper though, this one has been in the wars and isn't the best in places, it'd cost more in work for him to fix than it would to replace. Then, at some point this summer, he'll spray the right hand side too, so it'll all look brand new
