I rest my cases lol Ive got 225 of those horse things at the wheels ... But I much prefer those 235 torques lol

Hee hee bhp is bragging rghts ...torque is true test of real POWER

If there was no mot on the vehicle at the time of the accident Then unless it was pre booked into an mot station it should not have been on the road And all mot stations have to keep records of mot bookings for vosa inspections . on your insurance certificate you will find a discaimer that states that you are only insured if the vehicle is legal .. If it aint got mot it aint legal to drive .. Its immaterial really cos the way i read it ...the mot ran out after the accident ... If it didnt have mot i would be very wary of involving your insurance company

As long as you had mot at the time of the accident you were covered on insurance side .. If you now want to claim for a whiplash injury go through your insurance If you just want to claim for the damage that was actually caused then thats what the company are offering Its entirely up to you what you do ,my personal opinion on whiplash injury claims is probably best not mentioned as its only my opinion , I had the most minor and i mean minor of bumps in my van at no more than 3 miles an hour The guy got out of his van rubbing his feckin neck ...examined his vehicle not even a scratch on the plastic bumper !! As soon as he asked if it was a company vehicle ...and i told him yes ...but i own the business ..he stopped rubbing his neck Nuff said

My supercharger is on its way I have a picture of a box ....but i dont suppose that counts lol Only5-7 working days till the import charges hit me like a bag of bricks !!!!

Another update Went to see Lyndon ,we went out in my constantly backfiring Madame and came back with a sweetly purring beast Turns out it was a throttle position sensor ,a few keystrokes on his trusty laptop,and she was cured of her bad manners On Sunday she is being tightened up with new drop links front and back ,and front and rear engine mounts,so she should stop feckin rattling ( typical bloody female )

The guy who I use lives in Cannock Being honest don't know wether he could do anything with a standard ecu as I have a full standalone link g4 that he is a recognised expert at mapping .

Another update Tcb have done comparisons and say the st205 engine mounts will definitely fit So £150 later they are comin 2 Moro and get em fitted Sunday . So hopefully come Sunday afternoon she will be running perfectly / have 12 months m.o.t. / and be as tight as a drum Now someone wake me up as I was having a lovely dream

Quick update Got in touch with Lyndon who originally mapped it and he doesn't sound too concerned Which makes me a happy bunny He reckons maybe a downed speed sensor Coil pack Or engine position sensor But he can find out definitely as soon as he connects to the ecu So I will be off to Cannock on Friday . After m.o.t on both car and van 2 Moro ( fingers and toes crossed ) Just gonna ring tcb as me and neighbour were having a look at the side engine mount that I thought was shot ,when he noticed that it's actually the front engine mount that's got movement in it So I will get a front and rear engine mount to hopefully tighten her back up ( this could also be the reason I've gone through 3 offside cv boots in 2 years !! ) Just waiting on tcb ringing back as they are checking if the st205 engine mounts will fit as they will be a much better option due to the power she is running.

Firstly you are correct no one will find you a 4inch sub woofer as I doubt they exist So what you want is a set of component speakers in the front And speakers in th rear. Can I suggest that you Take off th door card measure across the speaker recess to see what the measurements are on the mounting points. Make a template and take it to halfords to see what speakers fit Once you get out of the " must replace with same " mindset and get your " that will work with a bit of fettling " head on Your on a winner What I would suggest is a set of front components with passive crossover and tweeter like alpine 17c . And a set of 2 or 3 way components in the rear . Just with these relatively cheap speakers you will be blown away by the difference in sound quality from standard .

Sorry chan £150 for a pair of decent 6x 9s is ridiculously expensive . Quality gear is not as expensive as some people would lead you to believe. You are on the right track with your alpine wishlist -- renowned as some of the best gear on the Market And for what you want from your system not exactly bank breaking. My show winning sound system is all alpine ,as is Mick baileys:)

Cheers Bryan

Fingers are firmly crossed

So today was the day for my Santa pod debut with the new look lightweight bitch After removal of 140lb of boot build and the removal of 7.5 lb per corner with the lightweight wheels . I was most hopeful of beating my best time of 15.1 seconds and getting well into the low to mid 14s Obviously things havnt gone to plan First run I managed to feck up by not revving enough 15.31 Second run over revving and bouncing up the track in 1st 15.52 Third run I was really impressed with Got off the line beautifully hit the gears perfectly Got my timing slip .... 15.31 WTF !! So this is where the trouble begins Closer examination reveals on run 3 At 1/8th of a mile I was 2 mph up on previous At 1000 m I was 3 mph up Yet at 1/4 mile 0.5 mph up. Which is where the problems began At the end of run 2 I thought I heard backfiring at the end At the end of run 3 I definitely heard it backfiring it's tits off And the joy of travelling 115 miles back home when every time you ease your foot off the accelerator the bitch backfires like uncle bucks caddilac ( ask your dad ) So obviously it's over fuelling like a bitch Hopefully it's all down to me letting the battery die over winter and she is in urgent need of a remap to the link . Don't really want to think of any more ( bloody expensive ) options at the moment.

Lovely jubbly
