quest for 500bhp
Hi Mikey, To reach the magic 500 at the wheels its gonna cost LOL First a rebuild with forged internals to handle the boost Bigger turbos ie 16g kit or some of the bigger garrett gt range turbos on a sus manifold Bigger brakes Better suspension Bigger injectors and fuel pump Twin induction set up with twin mafs or remove the mafs Big side mounts or FMIC Aftermarket engine managements Bigger rad and oil cooler Guages to monitor oil/water temps etc Remove all the crap you dont need ie aiv's etc All the above adds up to a hefty sum especially if your getting someone to do it for you, if you were then theres not many places that would/could do it, i know markzx was very happy with phil as C&S woods and ive never heard anything bad said about his work Mike

430HP only :-(
you may need the uprated springs in the wastegates, also have you got the boost controller plumbed in right and switched over to external wastegates?

will these wheels fit??
i keep saying that to the wife but she never believes me i'm always right :rofl:
-
will these wheels fit??
you may need some spacers as you should have between 35 and 38 so they may not clear the calipers or if they do they may look a little lost in the arches ;)

Which Diesel Car???
yeh drove a 54 reg sri, was ok but its ucking fugly :tongue: not driven a diesel though, must admit i did like my 2.6 sri vectra but then again i neve had to pay for my fuel so i used to get 20 mpg :dance: much to my bosses annoyance
-
Which Diesel Car???
i suppose its a difficult one to find a car thats big enough but small enough to throw around on the road and fast enough to excite but also still return 40+ to the gallon oh and cheap enough LMAO am i fighting a losing battle? or do i go into debt for a car? didnt really want to as its nice getting the allowance and PPM from work
-
Which Diesel Car???
problem is i has vectras for many years with my last company and said i would never have another LOL
-
Which Diesel Car???
Right i opted out of my company car scheme in July and bought a very nice Laguna Initiale 1.9 DCi Now its no 300zx but it gets me from A to B in comfort but what i am finding is its a great motorway car but i also do alot of my work in the Lakes and surrounding areas and its no sports car LOL ive fitted a chip which have improved things but theres still something missing from the driving experience :( So i'm thinking of changing the car to something else?? Needs to be a fairly decent size as i have a child and dog that needs to go in the boot, needs to be around the 5-6k mark and needs to be good on fuel which is another thing i have been a bit unhappy with!! dont get me wrong it does 40 to the gallon but thats if i drive carefully where as my golf GT TDi did 40+ and i used to rag the *****x off it :cool: Any ideas? Mike

Halo 3 and the Xbox 360...
yes i did it on normal then on legendary so its done now LOL its a good game shame theres not many big things to kill and its not longer, again after finishing it its still not as good as resistance FOM

Halo 3 and the Xbox 360...
i think there all getting like that, i bought heavenly sword and finished it in a few hours. to be honest when i bought the elite i got gears of war and just finished it in a few days, it was good but not as good as i thought. i have had a little go at halo 3 and it does look good, looks very clean, the usualy easy playable of halo which i like, graphics are good etc very similar looking to the first 2 but have not really been into the game as yet. must admit after playing both gears of war and halo 3 nothing has changed my mind that the ps3 is a much better system, resistance fall of men is massive and the online side of it is superb, ive finished it but continue to pay on it online so its great value for money. Just started playing warhawk which is good so far, all i would say is i'm ok at games but no where near as good as some of the people so you dont get the chance to get good at the game by playing it on your own as its a pure online game so your trying to work out how to play it and some nip kills you while laughing their 1ts off at you :p Think i will have a go on warhawk now :cool:

Be warned
What pi55es me off is the disabled people who park in the child spots!! and they do, wonder if they will get fined?? I agree about being a bit off parking in the disabled spots but there are far to many of them. I get more annoyed by the disabled people who think the badge enables them to park in the most stupid places, theres a one way road near me with a car park off it and for some reason they always want to park on the opposite side of the car park entrance, bloody dozens of them and its a pretty tight turn to get into the carpark as it is without the road being cut down by half.

Halo 3 and the Xbox 360...

-
Halo 3 and the Xbox 360...

-
Whats my car worth?
in an ideal world £15k but in todays market as others said you would be lucky to get £10k to be honest it was one of the reasons i never put all mine together as it was worth twice as much in new parts than it was all put together :( way of the world now, theres newly built R33 gtr's on the market with 600+ bhp for sale for under £15k!!
-
Halo 3 and the Xbox 360...
aye my xbox 360 loan went t1ts up so i had to go out and buy one LOL so i'm running the elite on HD and 7.1 sound and i must admit its pretty good :) been playing gears of war and its pretty good, i have to be honest its not as good as the ps3, sound, graphics and just the game play are much better, and warhawk is amazing but hey you cant get halo 3 on the ps3 so lifes a bitch ;) i wont be queing up to get it at midnight so will pop down to blockbusters tomorrow to pick one up :) will let you know whats its like tomorrow LOL Mike

Engine out
it can be done either way but if you have a big enough crane then i prefer to leave the box fitted as we find it easier and much quicker :)

bye bye mourinho
roman has been payrolling the russian national team anyway so he pretty much employs Guss anyway so whats this space :) as i said its a shame, he was such a character and love him or hate him he is good for the english game, i really hope the players vote by leaving the club which wouldnt suprise me
-
bye bye mourinho
he was a knob but he is also one of the best managers in the world so its a shame to see him out of this country!! just because roman owns a club does not mean he knows how to run one which is where the problems come from. looks like the russian national coach will be there soon ;) i give it 2 weeks before jose is at either real madrid or barcalona
