    @brembo & bobcat

    Only about a 2-3 hour clean, well impressed with the Meguiars hybrid ceramic wax spray ??

    I even turned down things she was recommending like the stick on lips etc…. Im not really a stick bits on car guy, might do some carbon replacement bits ?? but its full time saving for a vomit commit now! the next time she will recall giving me the thumbs up, is when it’s sat on the drive ?

    I did get this delivered to the unit today, under the radar…. £90 ish quid for both bars i just had to ?

    Sunday out in the wet! I know dry miles are best, but seeing the dash light up out of each corner is fun….????

    After the pic it poured down…?

    Nice one GM and the sunroof tilted up to enjoy draught-free pops and bangs innit !



    No nothing.

    No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

    No tackiness.

    Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

    Innit?

    @ bobcat she cannot wait…

    @ Paul Rees yeah where you cut across the dam wall, we scared the shit out of someone towing a caravan across the wall. It has to be flat out across there to get the best pop, bang and echo…?? high concrete walls are awesome..

    @ bda yeah sunroof is wicked for that, just wish there was a bigger defector when full open. Cant wait for the 9th of next month, the new full scorpion should be here.

    @bobcat i got a wash too, still got recirc valve to do but think its inside unit job…..?


    @brembo
    its full Ram Air from turbo. But as it was sat on my work bench, kept thing Alu is a wicked conductor of heat. Pipe being back of engine with all the air flow pushing hot air to that direction, though id give it a go and protect it a bit…..? So wrapped it with the gold space ship type heat defector tape, job done but looked like a dodgy gold tooth, so wrapped it in the black exhaust insulation. Not posh but practical?

    Doing it yourself is the only way, i have over the years fuked some stuff up but that’s how you learn! ?

    you also get the sense of achievement and cuts! ?

    Thats my dislike with guys like shmeeeeeeeeee, I’m sure he’s a nice guy but…… He’s a car guy…?? NOPE he’s a guy who buys cars and gets modifications done, specialist jobs OK but basic shite come on….. bet he doesn’t have his neighbours watch him wash any of his cars in the rain! ??

    Scorpion turbo back next but im going to borrow a ramp, im too fat even with my ramps…!

    @bobcat Yeah we pulled in to take a pic as we done 30 all the way up holding back a new GT-R ? didn’t want to hit the open common road and someone steal my moment…. Mental sound to it tho ?

    We took the gopro’s used a full tank of 99, and done an ice cream van crawl… ? tried to record the sound of the car but got bad windy audio ?
