  1. If your on about a bung to weld in your exhaust, i got a nut from my local spares shop and welded that in and used a bolt to block it as i could not wait for delivery. Just as good as any bung if u ask me.
  2. Sorry to hear about your mate, but here in central birmingham this kind of thing has become normal. 2 weeks ago my newsagent got stabbed in his arm/hand and stomach and a few weeks before that witnessed 2 stabbings in the same day! Day or night does not make a difference here. Country is a right dump in parts and is catching on in other areas.
  3. My mate has a 0.7 bar spring for a xs power 50mm wastegate. I will ask him if he wants to get rid of it as it was a spare for his.
  4. Yep, as u need to keep the rolling raduis right as not to affect your speedo and abs etc. TBH u can use what ever combination FEELS right to u. Most will use 235/35 front and 265/30 rear but in know plenty that have a 245 fron and 265 rear tyre.
  5. Prices are mainly to do with india and china as they are growing really fast and are putting a strain on fuel supplies. Yes the gov't here needs to cut the tax on fuel as that is they only way to control prices at the pumps, but some how can not see it happening.

    Rat problem

    I was in my mates unit a few weeks back which is behind a chip shop and a rat came in to the unit while 5 grown men were standing talking and making a lot of noise. This b4stard thing stood there and looked at us and did not even flinch! the thing was only like 2 metres away but then i looked over my shoulder and 4 of my mates had climbed on to the ramp and various cars that were there. Then i noticed that i was standing on a stack of tyres! dont know how i got there but must have been a natural reaction. Anyway rat stood there and had a snoop around then casually walked back out the dirty disease bag.

    Rat problem

    LOL! In birmingham it is a massive problem and the rats are everywhere! There not even scared of humans here and wont run away from u but stay there looking at you like a showdown.....and yes i usually back down and run in the opposite direction! Problem is all the takeaways here have food and bits dumped around outside and the rats are there in broad daylight munching away like theres no tomorrow. Man some of them are massive , hence why we call them Ratwoilers around here as some of them are there bigger than cats. I hate them and would not get near one personally. Rat poisoin would be a good start and then call in a expert as they breed like mutha fcukers!
  8. Check the points/distributer cap as these are common problems on micra. Try cleaning them and see if it makes a difference.
  9. LOL! will be getting another one soon with less spec(weight) and hopefully pre 2001 to avoid f..ing tax. Planning on stripping it out roll cage etc and use it as a second car.
  10. I have a pair of dunlop sport tyres which i bought 2 weeks ago for £350 and have covered less than 50 miles on them. Car had a whack so taken my alloys of and these are for sale as they are no longer required. Tyres are in mint condition and look brand new. Looking for £220 for the pair plus postage or collection.
  11. Keron's a trustworthy guy so don't panic! Give him a call on his mobile & i'm sure he'll get things sorted.. Totally agree.
  12. I dont believe a word the gov't says anymore and firmly believe that it is all about money. Wars cost money and use a lot of fuel and the people have to work the backsides off so the gov'ts can keep wasting money and putting prices/taxes up. They come up with stories to fool people and justify there reasons for doing so. They know fuel is running out so are trying to make as much money from it before it runs out.
  13. I have both sides for sale. Drop me a pm mate and what side u require.
  14. PISTONHEADS HAVE ORGANISED DEMONSTRATION FOR THE 19TH JUNE I THINK. I will see if i can find a link for it and there were 260 odd people sighned up for it already.
  15. The t28 s14 turbo will fit onto the s13 manifold. Also water pipes will fit straight on and if i remember the onlt pipe which neds replacing is the oil return which u can get from apex. Power wise there is a big improvement as the t28 is a slightly bigger and much more reliable turbo and will run 1 bar easily. If he puts on a front mount intercooler as well then the will really liven it up.

    Supra diesel

    Sounds like a good idea mate, go for it! The 6 speed getrag should handle the torque, dont think the auto will. Try getting the right ratios on diff and you will have a nice motor and free fuel.
  17. Are u buying a m3? and do u have a vectra? the reason i ask is someone from a place called prestige something in manchester wanted to do a p/x with my m3 for a customer about a week ago.
  18. Thanks for your info guys. I will also give caroline a ring and take it from there.
  19. Had a guy drive into the back of my m3 yesterday while i was parked stationery at red lights. Straight forward claim but the guys insurance company obviously want to deal direct with me and dont want me to use a claims company due to escalated costs. What i need to know is if anyone can help is, If i deal directly i.e no middle man then does that put the ball in there court as there is no middle man putting pressure on them i.e for value/ repair costs? Will they offer less because there is no claims company involved? I told them that i did not want the car repaired and that i would sell it off the way it is. They have said that i can have cash in loo for the amount it will cost to reair and can do what i like once the engineer has assessed car. Can they decide not to offer this and force me to have car repaired? The damage is not much but i have told them i dont want a damage repaired m3 as it will lose value regardless of whether it is light or heavy damage. Any advice is well appreciated.
  20. Vote for Tories I agree, because someone else deserves a chance as it is obvious labour are here to rob tax payers and just hand out benefits it's a fecking joke! All mp are tw@ts and all are going to rob us but we need someone there who won't rob us as much as labour. If cameron says he will cap at 95p a litre then give him a chance as labour has had way too many already and all this crap know about 2p a litre reduction is i my opinion too little too late.
  21. I have one too and had it or nearly 2 years without any probs and by the way my girlfriend bought it as a pressie for me as well.
  22. I know mate it cost me nearly double that and only been used for 15 mins if that.
  23. Its the basic kit which is on the innovate site.
