Well Elder i can assure you i am very nice.In fact im too nice thats why i get shit on all the time.But nice guys finish last.

Steve i started off the meets with my car in bits.We all respect that because you see the progress every time you meet.
So did Ash_p.
In fact i had all my wiring exposed under the bonnet for the first few meets and then half the interior in bits whilst i was installing the aquamist and traction control.
Trick is to buy yourself some window tints.then no fccuker can see the mess.

Anyone who fancies a beer after the meet then let me know as theres a real nice pub just down the road from Pizza hut.
Also a bit nearer to the time let me know who is going and i will book a table for the snap

i'll try tints then! How do i hide the key marks? i'll not wash it lol.
look forward to it, i'm new to fiats in general so would be a great chance to pick the brains of you experienced guys.
see you there!

erm...well my brains are only small.So im sure someone will have a internet phone.Then we will be able to answer any questions.
I had a key scratch down my car and a friend of mine sprayes it.He is one of those chips away guys but he isnt crap.
Cost me 100 quid for the rear 1/4 the drivers door and the rear bumper.
Took him 3 hours.And i didnt mind spending the money to get it right.God knows there was no expense spared on that.
Is yours a 20vt or a piddly 16vt

its a 20vt. i was regretting it as we put the engine in, but i'm very happy with it now. it turns heads i'll say that!! although i did think about a 16vt with the 4x4 running gear from a lancia delta... maybe next time ha ha

yeah i thought about that too.but old fashioned technology unfortunately made my mind up for me.I have rebuilt loads of 16vt lumps and there shyte.Shims and lots of pipes.
Much easier to work on the 20vt imo.Or much nicer anyway.

If I've got my hands on a Coupe by then, I'd likely be up for this

elder i might be able to make this, could alway go together. maybe try and get a convy going if we can get local fccukers to come, there's a few of us

well it would seem rude if I didn't pop in on the way past. BOO is having a karting meet in Manchester so I will be passing in the afternoon. Will bring the tissues for you Johnny

i can have a 1 on 1 with your car, i will win this time last few times with john at the wheel and 300bhp i didn't stand much chance

You would beat Tommy_k with a panda mate.

yeah bring it along to wind me up Tommy.

And fccuk off back to boo.you bravo boys arent welcome on here

Bring it on lol

Whenever your ready mate.And you best bring yourself a real car to the showdown

Haha, would be nice to see your old car john again.

I will bring a real car.. just gotta make sure i don't break it the night before!!!

how gutted was I!!!.. I even cried that night

Well it never let me down.
And remember if you bend it dude then dont fall asleep as i will hunt you down wherever you hide.

i bet you would do aswell john, you put alot of time and effort into that car, and i was great fun to be in.

oi... stop making out im gonna crash it all the time you 2!!


It scares me still... so I only dare boot it on very straight roads!!


I need to change it a little tho... to make it more "me"... anyone got any hamerite??

Lol, i think i am the only one on fccuk that knows why you want hamerite and seen what you have done with it.

Takes abit of getting used too after a diesel as it keeps pulling until you change, and you going at corners alot faster too.

Will be good to see you at the meet tommy.

Ash

Hold on.. in your very 1st post in this thread you said you broke the can on the 42!!!! lol


Plus i was saying to ash_p to bring it on... and the golf is a real car.. just a real slow car!! lol

I broke it because i used a bloody French turbo hose off of a 406 hdi and it split.
SO luckily JamiePM got me out the sh17 for the track day and built me some nice metal ones.
Take a look underneath mate.There must be 8 jubilee clips on that pipe now.Theres no way its coming off again.

Oh i've seen all them... even went and checked them all!!


I thought it must have been fairly important to have a WHOLE box of jubilee attached to them :-)


Is there a intinery yet to whats going on?? including times. I did't attened last year for obvious reasons so I dunno wot this even is.


Many thanks, Tommy K

I didn't notice you was saying bring it on tommy, i think i might take you up on that , i am going on the rollers in 2 weeks so hopefully will be running full boost and 270/280 bhp. This seems like it will be a fun day

realistically youll be running about 260 bhp mate and i would be willing to bet a small wager on that.

As for time hows about 12 oclock......

lol... I wont be racing or such like with anyone!!


Going from a 150bhp JTD down to a 105bhp Mk5 golf.. the bravo scares the $#!t outta me!!!


will let you know if i can deffinatly make it, have quite alot on with work at the mo

I don't race on the public road, just a little comparison as before it was very fast It will feel quicker then the golf as there very heavy

I don't race on public roads either... but there's nothing stopping u booting it upto the speed limit.


The golf is useless!! 105bhp in a very heavy car... kates 1.4tdi 3cylinder is quicker!!!!

has she got a polo, as there rapid little engines. :0 yeh get to the speed limit as fast as you can without driving dangerously
