i've used a 2.2k resistor in place of resistor 10 on the back of the speedo. Dead easy, took about ten mins to remove the speedo, about another 20 mins to remove and refit the new resistor. Use a small piece of black tape over the 'k' on the km/ph then fit the cover together. Before you fit it all together make sure you make a hole with a drill/soldering iron over the right hand variable resistor (as you're facing the front), insert a small screwdriver in throughthe top and take it for a test drive, i followed my dad and he increased his speed by 10mph then flashed his brake lights and i adjusted accordingly. Dead easy :) If you need any more help just have a search for converting speedo :)

On a serious note, don't get too serious too fast, let her make the moves if you can. I was quite lucky, went on a date this week, she bought me the first round in because she was late, kissed me rather than the other way round and then texted to ask whether i was free this weekend (sorry eileen hadn't told you till i was 100% sure hehe) If she's asked you round then sounds like you've got a good chance bud, good luck! :D

Happy birthday fella :duffer:

I'll give it a go. Too late to test it now but i'll post the result tomorrow.

pmsl :rofl:

I am so going to be putting one of those in a shorty for project number two. I will NOT have any money for the next 10 years lol :D

Looks good on 1960s american cars matey :D not on a zed or an escort for that matter :D hehe

No worries, found a post by NickC who's put a 22k ohm one in and its adjusted alright :)

What's left of the boot? :rofl: Like the colour though :)

20k ohms is it for 180mph? The guy in the shop only had 22k ohm, will that do? I know there's a certain amount of adjustability but will it be enough with 22k ohms in. If not i'll stick two ten k ohms in series but thought i'd ask before i peed about too much with it :) Mental note: 4500rpm in 2nd gear locked out is 55mph ;)

Superb :D

pmsl :rofl:

Pull the other one Kirbz :rofl:

I'm still concidering the triple pot rear lights on the gloss black as much as everyone hates them :D *waits for chairs to be thrown* I was advised by chunk he'd repossess the car if i did that lol :rofl:

lol, All the best bud. Hope everything goes smoothly *fingers crossed*

There's bound to be a second attack for them. If they're clever enough to bomb the tubes, etc they'll have a second line of attack which no-one will be expecting

It's got a funky roof mate and a 3.2 litre v6 when they release it. That'll be the fastest CC on the market :D lol

See i still say the purple one's look great: Just on a slight tangent of CCs i say the new VW Eos is awesome? The Golf CC Such a nice looking car in the flesh, i saw it last night in silver! Pictures don't do it justice and the roof mechanism is a masterpiece to behold :)

pmsl :rofl:

That's brill! :D What a great card! :D

Awesome looking zed fella, welcome! :D :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow:

My bros coming back from the states next week, we're a little worried for him to say the least especially as he has an internal flight from la to washington first :(

Happy birthday fella :D I do like the rainbow laquer very nice :D

I've always liked yours mate, its a top colour and i like what you've done with it :D It's up to you at the end of the day though fella, a sad loss to the club though both car and club member

Bugger, oh well fella. It was a pleasure reading the 4 posts i think you've made since i joined :rofl: Best of luck matey and feel free to drop in any time
