today

New PB for my car on 2 counts today. New PB 0-60 of 6.11 seconds, on a 2nd gear launch (still practising but it seemed to hook up well) and a new PB 1/4 mile of 14.408. I didn't win the diesel class though, not with Tspark's Ibiza and a red mk2 golf PD150 conversion doing mid 13s...

as i was driving along today just bellow the lkegal limit ... i liffted off from full throttle to break for a junction and the car kept accelarating for a little moment, maybe a second or so but it gave me a fright .. iv noticed this a few times now, always going from full throttle onto the...

Went up to Knockhill today for the racing, mainly to see the Scottish sports & saloon cars with the Gallacher Focus Cosworth's etc. It was scorching hot and there were lots of incidents, alot of cars were suffering in the heat with tyres going off etc. Pics here...

Hey folks! My Forge FMIC arrived on Thursday, so today I decided to tackle fitting it! I will mention here a special thank you sparkie1984 as he offered a lot of help in previous weeks, and settled me fitting it by mentioning I didn't need to jack the car up at any point! (I don't have a flat...

What...a...day, I've had! Granted, I'm still alive but compared to a normal day this was pretty bad! Last night on the way home I noticed a wooshing noise in time with the turbo, but much louder than normal. Thought little of it, got home. Then, this morning, got in and started on my way to...

well i decided to polish it up whilst we have sun

Hope it wasn't anyone on here, it would have been better if it never happened at all but I saw a very bent MK2 Leon today. M62 east bound just before Hartshead moor services, was at a standstill for about 40 minutes, finally got moving a saw what had been causing the hold up. Silver Mk2 Leon...

... went really well especially the rear which was unbelievably easy. However, the car has lowered abit, but not 40mm. The handling is ALOT firmer which is nice :funk: But does it take a while for the springs to bed in properly to the correct lowering? Shocks and springs fitted btw. Cheers

really needed to do these so just went ahead and did it..EVENTUALLY :D Before Before After After :funk:

And let me say by far the finest car I have ever owned, I was going for this but could only afford the 1.4i sport or a 1.8i Corsa SRI and I think I made the right choice. It just seems so well built and its a pleasure to drive something I've not had for a long time! the doors don't feel and...

Hi Folks, I've had a problem with my car this morn. My engine management light came on today on way to work, then it went off, when it had gone off i lost all power (felt like i had no turbo and wouldn't rev above 2300rpm ?limp mode?) then light came back on after 30 secs and felt like i had...
