  1. Look here! http://www.martrim.co.uk/catalogue/glues-and-adhesives.htm
  2. Some discussion now going on:blushing:
  3. Cos I dont have a phone number for ya!!! And TBH I havent quite got used to you being back. LOL!!:oops: Email me yer number for future. TBH Nick wanted to have a look at the bumper anyway before the car goes off to Advanced Motorsport on Tuesday. Ta for the offer.:yes:
  4. well Nick came to help on the final bit of fitting as promised. The twinz rear bumper is now fitted. 1. It looks great.:cool3: 2. It is very well made.:cool3: 3. Out of the box it fits better than any of the usual fibreglass stuff I have seen on this forum or from any UK trader. 4. I need one. So does Nick!:cool3:
  5. Just so.......... And after all those years just look how many of us are still around. And then add in all the really good new members. that adds up to this being a really good club... back then... and now I didnt say it was perfect mind and we dont all agree about everything But still a bloody good club!!:cool2:
  6. Yep.:thumbup1: Im working for the rest of the week in sunny Matlock:euro:
  7. TBH Allan I dont ask Bob how much stuff is. My job is to advise and assist. Bob buys it... I just fit it!:sailor: I know its listed on Z1 website. thanks for the offer mate I know you would come if you were nearer. TBH its a pretty good fit but I cant quite be at both sides at the same time. Bantambunny will pop up before it goes ....( if he wants my continued co operation with his project. LOL)
  8. Last day of assembly today. My initial phase of the project is complete(apart from the TwinZ bumper-fit). Car is now back down on the deck complete with new wheels n tyres. Just got to load it on the trailer and deliver it to Dan at Advanced Motorsport nr Silverstone. Probably Tues next week. Looking back thru my work sheets I see I have spent 15 days on this car and the red one. It has been a major piece of work and at times a difficult logistical exercise to ensure everything on both cars has been removed and refitted to the correct car. Just one little slip ....I refitted a SWB handbrake cable to the SWB subframe after it was put on the red LWB shell. Realized as I was doing it.... thank goodness! It has been good to work with Bob on his project and I have been invited to do some more work in the finishing off stages later. I have a vision for the finished car and it will be good to be there to completion. Final pics... Enjoy.
  9. No you need to help me fit it.:thumbup1: i can allow you to stroke it tho:ninja:
  10. Well still no help with fitting.... so I cheated cos i know one or two of you want to see the pics......... Enjoy:smartass:
  11. Five years later I reckon he wont have any pics:tt2:
  12. given that the average manual g box will be approaching 20years old and a TT box will have had around 280 bhp shoved thru it for all of that time its not realistic to give any guarantees or warranties. You might get an import box from a later car with only 50000 miles on it or you might get a box from an early UK breaker with over 100000 miles on it. ALL of them are going to be worn to some degree. Fact. The only way to be half sure is to remove the bellhousing for a visual inspection of teeth and synchro cones etc.
  13. cheers Daffy. I cant quite get the bumper fitted on my own and I dont want to risk breaking anything.:scared: If I do get some help then I will post up a pic in daylight of it fitted. It is Wicked. IMO
  14. Had a visit from Bob today... checking up on wot Im doing:ohmy: Brought me some toys to play with.:cool3:
  15. Lots of them arent worth keeping. So Just get rid. This will soon turn in to a "for sale" thread and get locked or deleted anyway.....like they always do.:lol:
  16. I cut two grooves in the side of the ring on opposite sides with a 1mm cutting disc. That then gave somewhere for a cold chisel to bite on. A few careful blows with a Birmingham screwdriver on alternate sides and out it came.
  17. Hmmm. Both Bobgenie and me need a sidelight in 99 spec indic unit as we are both having ducts instead of them big heavy foglights. i really dont like any of this Led stuff but I might have to go down this road. Decisions????
  18. Will these pass an MOT ok Graham???
  19. simple way to find out...... Switch on side lights... walk to front of car. Check what is lit up. i wasnt sure when the changeover came. Side lights were not in the fogs on 95 cars
  20. Put some of them Pirana things in. Or just empty it and fry em all up in batter:oops:
  21. You have fitted a QH part to your ZED:ohmy::gun_bandana:
  22. What you need to do depends on the year and model of car you have. Early J spec cars have the side light in the fog unit Later ones have them in with the indicator unit. I dont know about UK cars cos I never owned one.
  23. Mine is the same.Doesnt reflect the amount of stuff I have sold. I must admit to not bothering to use it very much and Im not bothered when people dont leave me any.
  24. Brilliant dry weather and warm enough to get the engine bay cleaned up and a quick repaint. This weekend should see the stuff back in the engine bay and the Tein Coilover suspension fitted.
  25. I have a Gates Micro V KO40365 here if anyone wants one. Unused:cool3: Cos I dont do aircon:whistling:
