I was in basildon today picking up my new exhaust [emoji14]

Bad times. You going to put it up for repairs or breaking it?

Just my pennies worth here. Could you whip the intercooler off to give yourself a better veiw of where it could possibly go?

Have you looked into specialist insurance companies? I was quoted £1300 from a comparison site and found a price for half of that from specialist.

The replicas will be cheaper to insure because they are none turbo. I'm not sure on the tax for that year but I believe it goes on the co2 emmissions.

Looks tasty! Clean tidy motor.

Nice. Stick some pics up!

Welcome to the club! What Scooby you got?

That's just showing off now [emoji38]

Nice impreza there. Looks really solid being lower.

Welcome to the club Lizzie! Fire up some pics of the blob eye. I got a sercret soft spot for blobs but don't tell my classic [emoji6]

The blue pipes look smart against the red inlet. I went for red vac lines. Only £1.97 from the bay of E. For that I'm willing to chance it and have a look. I'll need to match all my water pipes next.

Hmm didn't think that through. I might not go shouting about my red flaps. I'm gonna have a look at some red engine bays.

Almost forgot about that! Thank you stants. Looking on scoobyworld I don't know whether to go for the blue or red. I think blue is better under the bonnet but I want to go with red flaps. Don't think any other colour goes with silver.

I'll probably start with the turbo vac lines. So I'll grab 2M to be safe. I'll see how it looks and I'll have a good fiddle about to measure the rest. Despite having the cambelt and full service few weeks ago I'm still baffled by the sheer amount of pipes and wires all over the place. [emoji15]

Ideally all of it. I'm going to wave my "complete novice" card in the air. I have no idea what parts to do. Just want fresh pipework and a bit of colour.

About to order some fancy vacuum pipe. Can anyone tell me roughly how much I need in metres and what mm I need to complete it. Thanks in advance!

I'm keen on a Kent meet. I posted in the other thread asking for one. If this is 3 now wanting one I'll look about more eagerly. Where abouts are you bazza I'll look for a good central meet.

It's very rhythmic in the way it hesitates. It's Any gear under half throttle below turbo and during. Nothing at all at full throttle

I'll be ordering a new one soon but I'll be gentle. The light didn't come on again its just stored the code.

Morning ladies and gentlebeans. After following Gambits guide on checking and resetting the ecu on my classic I picked up a code 22. Done the reset and drove it for the week without a cel on. This morning while still cold on my pull away my cel flashed up and stayed on for 20 seconds before going out. Done the check and its code 22 again. I'll be replacing the knock sensor in due course but I'd like to know what effect it will have on the engine. I have noticed a very small hesitation in half throttle going up from 2000-5000rpm. Full throttle has no issue with hesitation or fuel cut. I was wondering if the hesitation was the car regarding the timing because of the knock.

Gonna sort my payment out on Friday. [emoji122]

You should try a days driving in London. Cyclist are insane. Jump red lights use the footpath when it suits them and I've seen and experienced them knocking wing mirrors only to ride off like nothing happened. Then you get the ones who think it's great to ride 3 wide or completely ignore their own special cycle lane. They also seem to like sneaking up on you at a set of lights stop in front and when the lights go green they take an age to get going again. Maybe I should just put this in the rant thread [emoji38]

Looks much better mate. [emoji5] does it feel any different?

Oh dear. How'd you break it?
