What like this ?

Mmm Carbon Fibre

Nice! Been thinking about doing something with the splitter, might have to liberate that idea

I'v been thinking about get a liquid guage for a while now and I'v been pointed in the direction of this

It has all the same features as the liquid guage but it has a bigger screen, can be removed and used in different cars and you can link it to the PC.

Only thing I'm not keen on is that it sits on a windscreen mount

sounds good but I still like the liquid gauge mounted in the air vent

I'm leaning back towards the LG, I might build it into the "A" piller pod

I always wanted to build one into my ashtray - it's right by the OBD port and you can close it to keep it away from prying eyes - also your passenger can play with it You can buy the gauge just as the screen on it's own and build some sort of fibreglass come carbon fibre ashtray unit. That was my dream but I ended up getting the Neuspeed ARB instead and then eventually selling the car - i think you should do it instead it would look the titties

 

[D.K]

I could make a carbon pod to sit in the center airvent

yeah but you would lose your airvent - also you wouldnt get that cool feeling when you prod the ashtray and see a carbon surrounded liquid gauge slide out...

Im still dribbling over the carbon splitter... so tempted to start having a go with this stuff

 

[D.K]

Start on something easy first

Hi Darren,

As I'm in the market for a new cat-back system, I wonder if you have any sound clips of your Milltek now that it's sooted up well?

Thanks

 

[D.K]

We did do one last week but I asked for it not to be posted, I'll see if it's still availible.

 

[t0m]

I don't think it's raw enough for Jay's needs tbh..? It's more sporty than pop-bang race/track style.

Although mine hasn't sooted up yet, so can't make a full judgement of course.

DK's is definitely louder than mine though.

I'v recnetly been suffering with a knocking noise coming from the drivers seat, I removed the seat last weekend but could'nt see anything obvious so greased up the runners a refitted it, but it did'nt cure the problem, one thing I did notice was the there was a lot of play in the rear castors which have been ordered, hopefully it'll fix the problem, otherwise it's going to need a new seat base or a new set of front seats

Heres a few old picture's that have been edited.

Blimey D.K, you getting a bit heavy for your seat?

Pics look ace mate. See you've got the hang of your camera and photoshop now

Think I eat too many mince pie's over Christams
The photography is going pretty well mate

The new castors arrived for the seat yesterday so hopefully I'll get time to fit them at the weekend and see if they cure the knocking.
