Drag racing and killing auto boxes has been taking up too much of my time mate ;)
It'll happen soon though :)

Hmmm a 6 hour detour might be tricky to get away with! She'd want to come to the ring anyway and would probably pay for it all :biggrin:
Sadly we don't have "Le Tesco" (supermarket is masculine mate- sorry, I'm being pedantic now lol) here and even worse theres no M&S!!
Still, French food and wine is pretty good ;) and I can even get "proper" UK beer like Abbot, Spitfire, Speckled Hen etc locally
you don't need an excuse, even better lol
Supermarket is male, they certainly got that wrong didn't they lolQuote:

Looking for a lodger?
the bootlid got attacked by the angle grinder this morning, only 1.3kg gone but still think i can get some more off it yet. Very annoyed i pimpel'd the skin trying to pry the reinforcement from the bonding, but sh*t happens

Erm...just noticed you've removed the wiper assembly, what do you do when it rains??.
I can't believe you've removed almost a quarter of a tonne from that car, shows just how much every single component adds to the overall weight of a car. Excellent work mate. :)
By the way, I recognise this filter, is that the one which now resides under the bonnet of my car? :)

thanks mate, everything seems to be weighing only 1kg at the minute so the target of 250kg is taking its time to achieve
you know what, when i was posting your stuff off this afternoon i thought i recognised your address. Yes that will be your filter, altho i never actually used it, i was trial fitting it to see if i could get it to line up with the headlight scoop i was making at the time. How is the filter, did it make a difference?Quote:

A very big difference; much easier breathing, better pick up and a smoother, throatier sound. Good all round really mate. :) Only thing I did was cut the length of the casing down by about an inch as it was a bit too large to fit in without re-siting the battery. I had to fold the pipework a bit from the intake (as I put the filter where the airbox was) but it hasn't affected the improvement to any noticeable degree.
i'd of ditched the battery lol, glad your happy with it
lights.............. http://www.clker.com/cliparts/e/3/0/....svg.thumb.png are they heavy? lol
ps stumbled on this while looking for the lightbulb pic, ouch link
Sorry to everyone to go off on a tangent....
Pedro- Spotweld removal drill bit does this. Ignore the rust as my car has sat like that for nearly two years....
