hey man. sorry if im going off topic but just read a lot of your page and just wondering where you got that honda stubby aerial on like the 1st page. i know it was a long time ago. do you still get reception with it or is it just for show? thanks in advance.

No problems mate. Its this one (but I got is cheaper) LINK

Some of the lads are getting THESE which are a bit shorter still.

Reception is fine except when the signal is going, but then its like that anyway I guess.

De-dadging is a really easy yet effective mod. Just use a bit of hot water to soften the foam/glue on the badges. Then using an old credit card to help, peel the letters off one at a time. Then using a pencil rubber/eraser rub the rest of the glue residue off the body. Wash and wax and all will be good!

Another new boost gauge fitting

Well the last DIN plate was crap so bought a new one, cut the hole in it and fitted it this evening. This new one fits soooooo much better in the DIN gap. What do you think folks?

Looking good m8. You headin to edition next week? What does this n249 do and altering it what is the achievement?

No, not going to edition but would of been good to!
The N249 is a back-up recirc valve system on the 20VT engine in case the standard Bosch valve fails. As I have uprated my valve to the Forge 007p recirc valve I am going to bypass the N249 and this is a way of speeding up the vacuum to the Forge DV and speed up its operation (with less lag).
