    Joke..

    aaah that made me laugh
  3. internet consultant services, ics for short. webtech internet support services
  4. I bought some pitiful veilsnide spats which were so poor, that I sent them to another member to decide if he liked them, and when he said no thanks they're shit, I just said bin 'em or keep 'em or try to find some mug to buy them. Not worth bothering with postage over, but it is disappointing all the same.
  5. That's a wierd resolution. What sort of display are you outputting to? There are some tools which allow you to set custom resolution, but I'm not sure if there are restrictions on just how custom you can go.
  6. uh oh. Like John said, you you should keep a close eye on your crank pulley from now on as it may well break apart and go flying through your bonnet or radiator
  7. Only kidding, nice car
  8. Ooh what have I missed
  9. ah shit.. completely forgot. I fitted a ball and spring type boost controller ages ago Sorry..
  10. I only hit >13.5psi at high speed remember.
  11. You'd have to give me a clue how and where to check that John. I have no idea about all the actuators and VSVs et cetera.
  12. hmm. no. Just decatted and free flowing exhaust. The car basically has 3" piping near enough straight through from the turbo back to the tailpipe.
  13. I'm not suggesting anybody go ahead and do the job without first getting a continuity-tester (cheap multimeter) on there first though and checking it's the correct resistor. My car is a UK spec and so the ECU may be different to the Jap ones.
  14. Yep. I did mention that is *was* the correct resistor, considering my booboo.
  15. is it... Tango coloured?
  16. I think you misunderstood on the resistor/FCD thing. The idea is that since the MAP pin comes straight to that resistor from the connector block, you would wire the FCD in there, meaning you don't have to cut up the main ECU loom. The resistor wouldn't be removed, it would be put back in-circuit along with the MAP in/out of the FCD. If the ECU had've had wires coming from the connecting block onto the PCB then I'd have cut one of those instead of considering removing the resistor. I sort of agree on the moisture point, but considering that now, I would just replenish the foam stuff around the edges. It's basically this stuff: http://www.uk2sucks.net/foam.jpg
  17. ehehee lol spot on mate Jap bumper too
  18. CrAzY yeah it is. I used to discuss r/c helicopters and we would constantly be amazed at people paying over retail for gyros and things.
  19. Chris, Stuart (Cree) had something like this set up years ago with his house phone.. switching the washing machine on and stuff I think. Was many years ago when I was a little nipper and my uncle was telling me. Maybe he'll have an idea..
  20. Crikey. I just listed this starting at £1, Buy-it-Now £100, and it's sold in like 4 minutes. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8761243937&ssPageName=ADME:L:EOISSA:UK:31 I wonder if the buyer has made a mistake. It ain't worth much I don't think! Maybe I should have checked completed auctions first ?
  21. Boost alarm on the SPA boost gauge Had it set for 15psi. I lifted off after ~1.5 sec of the alarm light.
  22. but.. but.. but I'm UK Spec. I thought they generally didn't boost spike much at all? I think the only reason I'm getting this much boost is 'cause I have a full 3" decat instead of the more common 2.5".
  23. I'll set my boost alarm for 18 psi. I don't think it'll ever go off. In all my time of having the gauge fitted, I've never gone beyond 17.9. (it's a SPA digital gauge which remembers peak boost & temp).
