Just drove past this in Almondbury lol! Looked great, dont know how you managed the speedbumps there though

Ali123 · 29th July 2012, 16:56

Haha it's a pain In the arse but well worth it! And I saw you driving past! What you doing tonight ? Me n a few mates are chilling at odeon car park tonight if you fancy coming along?!
There will be a mini there, two saxos' a Clio and my 106 if you're up for it?

Sandy869 · 29th July 2012, 17:05

Ahh gutted im busy tonight im afraid mate, shame really would of been good to bob along for a bit. Thanks for asking though anyhow. Where did you get your car lowered if you dont mind me asking? Seriously need mine doing. New parts youve bought sound good!

Ali123 · 29th July 2012, 17:09

Ah you let down! We'll be there for a few hours or so so you could pop down for 10 mins or whatever if you can? Would be good to meet you and boony on here can do you your torsion bar for 50 quid and I can't remember how much he does he front for though !
Also rickyp does the torsion bar and front end including springs for 120 if I remember correctly!

And cheers man

slight update but nothing much!

engine is in the process of being stripped but i stripped two sockets trying to get the long bolts which attach the head to the block, got 4 out and another 4 to go!

seriously cant wait till it starts to take shape

chris-hall-yo · 1st August 2012, 22:06

Impact sockets ftw! hahaha looks good mate. feeling a 16v turbo conversion myself hmmm

Ali123 · 1st August 2012, 23:43

Deffo! And haha do it mate! I was tempted with a cammed 16v ump, so much easier but I have to have boost!

sam_16v · 1st August 2012, 23:53

are you using the 6 point socket or a 12 point also when i had a Fucked head bolt i banged a 10mm 12 point socket on to get head bolt out

Ali123 · 1st August 2012, 23:56

Give them a good coating in wd40 for a good half hour then get an impact socket and a strong bar a couple of foot long and will come straight off!

Shall do mate

will need to borrow a bar too! One I have now is about half a foot long haha

Fuck long bars get yourself a short length of scaffold does the job fine. And also as a note had a customer in today for a wheel change because he got pulled and 3 points for each stretched tyre on the m62 roadworks I think it's just the odd copper but thought I would tell you with u asking.

Ali123 · 2nd August 2012, 00:52

So he got 12 points :0 fuuuck that

Yeah unmarked silver Audi pulled him on heartshead moor service station asked why his tyres were un road worthy and over inflated took pics and wrote him up.

I know that most places around here won't blow the tyres on without you signing a disclaimer first. I think it could be a west yorks crackdown and I'll ask my mate ( traffic cop ) when I see him on sat.

Ali123 · 2nd August 2012, 00:58

That's horrendous

and yes please do ask him and let me know mate!

Ali123 · 2nd August 2012, 01:05

Wait, the police man said to me to that as of yet they cant give me any points or fines until next week when this new " legislation " comes out?!?!?
This is so confusing

Cam · 2nd August 2012, 01:19

Boost and stretched tyres dont mix.

AaronSalter · 2nd August 2012, 02:06

Looks nice man wouldn't be able to have it that low where I live speed bumps on every road almost

Cheers mate!

josh11490 · 2nd August 2012, 03:02

Seems like coppers just take a disliking to certain people/ cars

From what happened between you and the fella who had 3 points for each tyre thats mentioned is 2 different things?
