Haz Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 I feel like they are now just in a shit place? Or is it because you have a £2 coin for a steering wheel, so you can reach behind? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Looked so much better on the wheel!In other news, I've not (pretty much) got the cooler on, just need to trim the bumper a touch and refit plus a little fine tuning. However, I am also in need of a new air con rad after being a f**king mong 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Looked a mess from behind though, made the wheel harder to sell on after and affected the integrity of it (could wobble the wheel a scarily amount forwards and backwards after the holes were drilled) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 I've got big news myself. On Wednesday. Someone is going to turn off my airbag light. I'm pretty excited about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartMini Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Look at this bloody monstrosity: 3 Foot long, 1.2kg, held to the bodywork with EIGHT 13mm bolts, just to hold a couple of exhaust mounts! Took care of that, Trials weight weenie style: saved over 600 grams! also changed the exhuast mounts whilst i was there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Capri buyer has decided to report me/ the car to VOSA for 'clearly having a bent MOT' because the inner wing was a bit crusty. Fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKidney Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 (edited) Always worth hanging onto a car after test for a max of 3 months. Excessive corrosion worthy of MOT failure can fall back on the seller/tester within that time scale. Though you can plead innocent and pin it on the test station for missing it. I did the same after VOSA carried out an inspection on my corsa and deemed all my brake hose ferrules beyond safe in terms of corrosion only a week following its test during a random inspection and the garage got the bumming, not me Edited June 9, 2015 by SamKidney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha. MOT regs - Gotta switch on and off again. And because my car is totally legitimate, no bodges what-so-ever (kek), I want it done legit. I also had errors on my ABS, which I have fixed on the dash, but would like the logs cleared out. Also, it will be stickered up tomorrow, ready for Le Mans! Woo!

AdamR28 Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 Fair play dude! The local place here lets that one fly (the on and off thing, and they are really anal), especially with the airbags removed (which I think you had done?).

From what I gather they're only 6 speed from 03 onwards also, 5 speed before that. Ideally I'm after a 6 speed but if a nice earlier one comes up I won't complain. I just think I may miss having a turbo, and the ability to give it a remap (and notice a difference). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
