  1. Took my car for a late afternoon spin today,if you were a copper following me you'd have pulled me for suspicion of drink driving ,got to avoid so many BIG holes in the roads now its a joke.Defo have those pics to hand,any chance you can measure the depth of the hole (without getting yourself hedgehogged) http://www.potholes.co.uk/claims/how_to_claim
  2. Hate seeing threads like this,one is too many but seems theres been a few recently.Scum. And yes AMS may be able to do you even a straight bonnet swap very reasonably
  3. You will always aspire to be in our gang Dubs
  4. ...but not the car's fault LOL. My car has had a lot of previous owners in its 26 years...one of them could have been Gary Glitter for all i know.As long as theres not a Vietnamese schoolboy stuffed in the spare wheel well,then who cares the car has been made my own. (I keep my schoolboys in the ashtray) Anyhoo,welcome to the club fella.Hope to see the car about
  5. might take a while to sort itself out,like when we spoke its a case of making everything electrical and intake wise is dry and ok.Could do the TE1 short and see what that code was,itll still be stored in there.Short of that disconnect the battery again for a while and give it a good long while to sort itself out and get a few more miles on her
  6. A local herbert may be the way forward LOL
  7. Can get a Clifford concept G5 fitted for around £350..Toad sounds a good bet though,Also they always state 'dependent on vehicle'.Slightly concerned about what may be involved with my car,mainly the fact the car only has key entry and central locking only locks both doors if you lock it with the passenger lock.Never had it working properly.Also the fact that the wiring on the car is now kind of bespoke Bek-ness,gen6 JDM loom with some custom wiring to enable the gen4 bits that the JDM car didnt incorporate.So them looking at a gen4 wiring diagram aint going to be helpful.
  8. The car does sit for a while from time to time as its not a daily,thats another thing to take into consideration
  9. Car is on a private driveway overnight .blocked in by other cars but i'll be looking into the different options cost wise
  10. Yeah i will look into the local suppliers/fitters,just wondered what you guys thought.I had a Scorpion on my GT4 that was a massive pain in the ass
  11. Looking at getting a Thatcham 1 or 2 certified alarm for the ol' gen4 ....suggestions and idea of costs would be helpful ,many thanks.Has to be of that spec for insurance purposes,obviously needed to be fitted professionally
  12. cheers guys,thanks for the replies.Shaun,you have PM Hi Jeff,the thought had crossed my mind til i looked up the other day and saw how much they go for..
  13. Shhhhh once i get the caps you'll be the first person i'll come to
  14. Having sold on my OZ's,the centre caps had to go with them.Had them fitted on the Nakajima alloys that are on my car,these; Was always really a temporary fix,for aesthetic purposes as the Nakajima's didnt come with any originally.Never seen any caps for them,let alone another set of wheels like them for that matter.Anyhoo, now they dont have any centre caps again.Had a look on the bay at a couple,the diameter of the centre hole of the wheel itself is 58mm.Most seem to have 52 mm inner clip though when you read the small print. Which is obviously too small.Any recommendations?Dont have to be colour dependant particularly as I will obviously customise them later ;)Just need a good tight fit.
  15. Yeah battery indoors,maybe bicarb or something in footwells in a dish for the damp,handbrake off,bung it on axle stands if poss
  16. Thats a posh sump plug mate!
  17. Ha yeah it was discussed down at Bek's yesterday.All's well that ends well,you got it now
  18. Me too,though courtesy of Opie,not the Blue Oyster Bar like yours
  19. Hear hear.makes me seethe,i tell you.
  20. Got my new steering arms and gaiters from www.tcbparts.co.uk for my '87 st162 today,ordered at 445pm on Tuesday night.Super quick delivery,top quality parts and a good chat to boot. I've included the roll of packaging in the shot to show how well protected the arms were in delivery.Cheers guys
  21. A massive behemoth of a trolley jack Is it wrong to be excited about a piece of garage equipment?Naah. The damn thing weighs over 40kg,it belongs in a workshop really.. :rolleyes: but I wanted it LOL And its super low entry.. cool.Even if I cant pick it up without my spinal column exploding...
  22. I accept cash and cheques mate
  23. Me too,a little present for the gen4.Cracking buy as well,Shaungtr is one of the club members that its a pleasure to know.
  24. Problem with a smart repair on a bumper,its hard to blend in a small area.and yours is one of the harder colours they have to deal with,believe it or not.
  25. Most Chipsaway smart repairs are around 120 quid
