@jordan27 - did they ever say they'd be ready? Sure someone said they had stopped making them or something.

@mcmicra - a few people have seen this before dude, many have tried to get them too. 2 new sets of corsa b coilies for front and 6n's for back would be cheaper anyway.

WDIDT? Swapped my stereos over so I've got aux input now. Fixed the boot/petrol popper (works a charm). Got a super cheap brand new rim and tyre(spare from freshly scrapped facelift), continental sport contact, stuck it on the rear left on my GF's car. The stiff sidewall makes the car stick to road around roundabouts.

Annoying my old old car, now my GF's car handles 10 times better than mine. I'll never again buy budget tyres with softass sidewalls.
I'll just keep them for winter and gets some 15's next year I guess.

Nope, dad told me yesterday that they said two days! No "out of stock" or anything before we bought them and they took the money and then said 5 weeks.
5 weeks went by and then they said another 6.
 
WDID?

Picked up jap boot :D :D

Ill get a few photos of it tomorrow + other goodies :L, not fitting it until Saturday as weather is meh so we can get into a garage then :)

Order stud and bolt kit as well for fitting frankspeed mani tomorrow.

Then off to get it dyno'd to see how much the PLR and frankspeed and almera box have gained, don't think iv ever seen a dyno print out of a car with these 3 mods most have dyno after a turbo or something :L so be interesting to see just how much you gain :) :L

Drove mine to Silverlake salvage in Southampton. Not for Micra bits though, needed a window regulator for our Stilo.

While in there I spotted a set of 6.5 x 14 BBS Ex E30? the guys wanted 80-100 for them with the balloon tyres they were wearing. I'm not going back there anytime soon but if you are local and fancy them here's yer heads up.
 
Drove it around surprisingly calmly considering i have until midnight tomorrow when the insurance switches to the new car left to have fun in it...
Problem is theres nobody round here going out at the mo, and im not yobbish enough to do solo handbrake turns in a carpark!

Just no!!

To which bit. :D

Don't shoot puppies :(


LEEEEEAVVVEEE ITTTTT YEAHH!!!

So far so good. :) Think i need my own race track...i'm open to donations if anyone has one going spare. You'd be free to play too. lol.

and suppose I'm kinda like a mix between Jackie Chans character in Thunderbolt (without the kung fu) and Macgyver lol

Having watched a lot of Jackie Chan films (I think it was the police story films that started it all - though i'm pretty sure i've still not see them all.)...i've gotta admit i've never heard of Thunderbolt. :eek:
 
Thanks MicroPRO,

I have tried with the other but not work. The locked one is 98 and the other is 2000. Does make any difference?

I will have ago tomorrow again.

Regards

I think I started off with police story too and then the english dubbed project A then operation condor.
thunderbolt wasn't very well known here. I only caught it on telly 1/4 way through and recorded on tape.
