  1. Nice heads-up, cheers mate :)

    ST185 GT4s

    Parts are generally much cheaper dude - TCB are very good and there are plenty of non Mr T suppliers about now Rads can be iffy but things like cats can be easily deleted. Diff mount is a pain but not a major problem.

    Tighten up the actuator slightly, lose the releif valve and get a decent EBC CV joints is possible - no worry about figure 8s though :) Hob, what are the pink cards for then?? :) (how come they're pink?)
  4. I cleaned mine off with a wire and then a bras brush and thinners, slipped some paper in between the calipers and the pads to keep paint off the pads and then chucked some of Halfords caliper paint on with a brush. I did all 4 at the same time and simply worked my way around the car for two laps (two coats). Once done, chuck on some vinyl graphics and the job's a good un :)
  5. Which part measures 3.25" mate?? Basically speaking, if they don't measure the same (all ways) as the original discs then there's no chance they are gonna go on. You need to check the diameter, thickness and top hat depth (the sticky-up bit where the bolt holes are.
  6. Wahey!! :) Definately going - ballast is working so I'm free :)

    ST185 GT4s

    If it already has a steel head gasket then you have the biggest worry out of the way already:) Definately a good following for the marque - more exclusive than the Hyundai look-a-like 205 :)
  8. Missile, Where abouts are ya dude??
  9. Wot?? Like me??? Hopefully I'll be coming out to play (need to clear it with the ballast first though) - I'll confirm this evening Matt, if I can score a leave pass wanna meet up locally first?? Mac Ds at Bobbing??
  10. I'd be interested in this too :) I currently have a toad alarm (not a clue what the model is) but would really find a remote start facility (either linked to the alarm or seperate) very useful.

    185s are good fun, look very nice (with a few tweaks) but I would never describe them as being cheap to run!!! As with any turbo car, it's very difficult (well, it was for me!) to resist the temptation to mod the engine, better turbo, FMIC, more boost etc. etc. etc. If you do get one, then as stated, look for a RC/CS model as they have slightly better performance. Have a look on the website ( http://www.gt4oc.net ) to see if anyone's selling, what problems to look out for (especially the dreaded head-gasket!!) and what sort of prices to pay.

  13. Hey!! I quite like that dude - not normally a fan of that sort of thing but it looks pretty good :)

    any reggae fans?

    Love it Ragga, Dancehall, Lovers, Dub, the whole lot :)
  15. Hi Pete, Yup, got a very nice thank-you letter cheers. More than happy to help out ahain - it was good fun and nice to se the kids enjoying themselves
  16. If it were one of my comrades then yes - I would!
  17. /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_cool.gif Bump:)
  18. I entirely get what you're saying Penguine, but you also need to remember that in some situations it is very difficult to distinguish beteen 'innocent civilians' and 'non-uniformed combatants' - particularly when you are working against an enemy that hides within the local populace and uses them as cover (willing or otherwise). Not saying that I condone Israels reactions - just that I admire their balls for saying 'bugger public opinion etc.' and doing what they feel needs to be done.
  19. ................and white makes a better background for all the sponsors and tuners logos:) Think it was in last month's mag (dunno which one) :d
  20. Look behind the politics and see it from a grunts point of view - you're in the shit and instead of abandoning you (as most govts would) your comrades pull out all the stops to get you back! The Israelies DO know how to look after their troops. By comparison, look what we did for our pilots who got downes in Iraq - sweet F A !!
  21. If you chat nicely to him Heckler will actually come out and fit it for you on your drive!! (he did mine in the pub carpark where I work on a Saturday) - quality stuff too :)
