  1. Lol, I've met the guy a few times... Got one of my friends to start doing squats while we were all stood at a bus stop about 8.30 at night (we were all about 14/15 at the time). Doesn't help that Camdyman the film came out about the same time, I honestly thought bees were going to come out of his mouth as he bummed us all.
  2. Mate I feel for you, don't come on here as often now and it seems the build is cursed with problems...
  3. I've fitted one on the rx7... Good flow and compatible with almost all fuels
  4. If its a greddy t88 mine only started seeing positive boost around 3800/4000 rpm... Remember a boost controller can only increase boost over the spring rate of your waste gate, not decrease it...
  5. I had a. Dry similar issue with mine, was dangerous to drive... I changed brake booster, no better, rebuilt the master cylinder, not really any significant improvement. I had Austec look into the problem and they couldn't find anything visibly wrong either. I ended up changing the brake pads and low and behold it worked fine. Visibly the brake pads where fine, bought some Chris wilson ones and it cured the problem. Maybe buy some cheap ones to rule this out.
  6. I wouldn't worry mine used to do it on hot days from air con
  7. What would be the cost to get a decent 3 screen setup with the hardware to run these PC race simulators? I'm not too familiar with PC set ups etc... I've got a g25 that I used with the ps3 but as it is not compatible with ps4 or xbox one ive spat my dummy out.
  8. So made a start fitting my apr carbon wing mirrors. Everything seemed quite easy. The oem wing mirrors rotate left and right at the base so you can access the fixing screws. Unfortunately one of mine was fduked so will have to find someone with a broken stud extractor to sor it. You have to take the door card off, then take the speaker out of the door to find where the wiring clip joins the loom... Got them on... Next problem was the great paintwork the first bodyshop I used did... Took the standard mirrors off to find they hadn't been removed when the kit was fitted and painted (had the doors blown in aswell). Look a mess... So until I can be bothered getting the car to the paint shop again I was speaking to someone at Japfest who said why not try and get a sticker or something to cover the bad paint. This gave me an idea... Bought a sheet of 2mm carbon (the real stuff not fake), then made a template of the area of bad paint. Cut it and sanded into a nice oval... Looks pretty good, and only cost £20 for an a4 sheet of carbon, rather than £££ for the doors to be done again... Bit of a wheeler dealer fix but pretty happy with how it turned out...
  9. Mine had an easy 550 bhp on standard block, head and intake with power fc and greddy intercooler, bigger injectors and gtr fuel pump... Only reason it wasn't higher was the fuel pump hit its limit...
  10. Mine was a good solid turbo, I loved the way it hit boost and just launched the car. Worth the money for the smile factor. I've got its smaller version T78 on the rx7. Glwts
  11. So just picked Betty the Bulldog up this morning. Cutest little dog I've ever seen lol. She is 8 weeks and 1 day... Currently snoring fast asleep on her new bed
  12. I think I'll make the trip down in the rex...
  13. it is Chris' (carbon bullet) on here...
  14. Like you keep saying mate everyone wouldn't think twice about driving 3 hours down south for a car show, so will be good to drive 3 hours the other way up the M6
  15. Ok I'll have this if it's still available... and Alex I'll take the room aswell, just pm me with details and what £££ you want How do the tickets work as there will be me and Add Faz coming down. I take it Alex's ticket only admits 1 person?
  16. Ok, I'll see what Gregg or add are doing on that date... If it goes beforehand then so be it As long as you guys don't mind having the rex parked with you...
  17. I'm being lazy but when and where is it?
  18. So have some top feeds to go in now... Anything I should do before I install, any tips etc? they have brand new o rings top and bottom, should they be lubricated before they are fitted, or just a case of push them into place and bolt the rails down? Cheers Add (They're obviously going into the rex but I'm after general fitting tips for top feed).
  19. Looks lovely Dean if I was you I'd sell the Varis bonnet to one of the Ridox kitted guys on here and get yourself the top secret bonnet to compliment your car.
  20. Just check with Jurgen it wasn't the place he sent mine to as they made a right mess of it and never actually fixed it...
  21. Not great news as its the only filter that will fit on my turbo on the rx7 with the limited space...
