Where do I start?
I fitted a blitz sus a few weeks ago, apart from that it is standard. Has a quality aftermarket exhaust and that's it thus far.

A bit expensive
Are they worth the money at that price?

Where do I start?
As some of you will know I have thus far concentrated on getting my Slicktop looking good, smoothed, resprayed etc. I have also had a complete overhaul on the handling side of things. MeisterR coilovers, adjustable arms all round, hicas lockout(DW) and polybushed rear. Now it's time to start on the engine!! I have just covered 3000miles so was going to book her in for an oil change and basic health check. I am after some considered and knowledgable advice/suggestions on how best to approach improving performance. I am a complete mechanical numpty so will be getting all the work done by specialists. I still have to arrange the fitting of my manual conversion so I am on limited funds but if you guys could give me your advice it would be greatly appreciated. Obviously I would purchase a suitable clutch for any likely mods to be fitted when converting to manual. Thanks for any input in advance. Daffy :cool3:

so gutted today
You should never feel ashamed about going for counselling buddy. You have realised you need help and have been emotionally intelligent enough to seek some help. Do what you need to do to help you through an obviously upsetting time for you. As said, and as you've probably realised spending quality time with your friends and rediscovering your old self will all help the healing process. It's far too easy to just say keep your chin up/man up etc. By seeking help and trying to sort yourself out you are doing exactly that, i.e. manning up. Now phone your mates and go and sink a few cheeky halves. Daffy.

nice little earner if you got one
Just went to buy it and all of a sudden there is no "buy it now"!! Someone on here doing a bit of upselling? Would of enjoyed the read and put it with the rest of my cars bumpf. We'll see how the auction pans out.

nice little earner if you got one
Would you guys say it's worth the 20quid to get the one on eBay?
-
New front end
They're the ones :thumbup1: They look mint mate. And yes you can get blue anodised wheel nuts, ebay is your friend :tongue_smilie:

Do I need to send you my details Chris? Pretty sure you should have them.

FAO: Any Mechanics
That wasn't the impression it gave mate. You were obviously asking as to avoid any future problem occurring. It would of been easy to plead ignorance by not asking the question. Fair play to you.

Removing headlights?
Thinking the same grey as the bumper bar/roof bars might tie it all in together like you say. Especially with my current wheels, really liked the look of Jeffs though. Decisions.....

Hi All
Point me in this direction Pabs. A meet in Maidenhead you say? That's my neck of the woods old chap.

valentines pressie
Everyone loves you Mikey :tooth: Apart from all those you've tried to get a :ban: !! Which after the last few weeks probably means you're right and it is only your car that loves you :smartass::lol:

FAO: Any Mechanics
Do the right thing mate, if there is a chance of it doing permanent harm and you do it knowingly just before you sell it that's pretty poor behaviour dude. Get the cheapest 'proper' oil you can. Then sit back and wait for the positive Karma.

improving brakes on a budget
Keep the opinions coming guys. My pads have only covered 3000miles but I had to get some interim ones due to a wrong order. Looking to replace mine again now, any recommendations? Preferably personal opinions of ones you've tried, some of the pads are well expensive!! Is this extra cost justified? Not trying to hi jack this thread, just keep it moving nicely.
