  1. Exhaust gasket set arrived from cobra today 😊
  2. I did unfortunately. Like I said, I can't really argue with them either because they could just tack on another £270 odd on, and it just comes direct out of my pay....They're very sly in it. Barley kerb rashed a alloy, says if it's within 25% it's ok. I thought get in its well under that, but then t goes on further to say if the metal starts to come off it's no good, so basically you can't kerb any alloys at all...
  3. Aye I know right...cheers bud. Ordered it from a scoobyworld so fingers crossed.
  4. I might have a voltmeter about somewhere. Will have to locate it. Think it could be a bad wire. Noticed some electrical tape around it. Probably has to do with when they connected the rear fog light in...wonder if it's messed with the wiring.
  5. Ordered another Walbro fuel pump...
  6. Right, so my driver side rear tail light is out. Pulled the bulb which looked fine, but I replaced it anyways. Still not working? Any ideas? Checked the fuse as well and that looked ok.
  7. I tried arguing wth them. He just said he's been nice to me already and could of charged a hell of a lot more (he reckons they could of had £600 easily). Massive **** take like I said, they're expecting showroom condition cars that have 10k+ miles on them...here's one of the "scratches." Absolutely foaming.
  8. Just as well, the cheeky fuckers charged me £227 for tiny scratches! They want the thing back in showroom condition and it's a used car! 👊🏻💥
  9. Ah ha! 3 miles left on it when they finished looking over if haha
  10. So returned the Qashqai today, which means the Scooby is back to being my daily driver 😊 Ended up taking it back to the Port of Tyne with virtually nothing left in the tank haha! Take that you !Removed!! 😂
  11. As title states, is there a way to disconnect the passenger airbag? Still haven't put my rear seats back in yet and need to get the bairn to the childminders when I go to work. Was thinking of just putting him in the front, but would need to disable the airbag? Any easy way to do t other than ripping the dash or and disconnecting? (Pull a fuse?)
  12. From what I've read, injectors (to compensate for the extra fuel output) and pump are the only things needing changed. Someone made something ridiculous like 356whp and over 400lbs of torque on basic mods (pump, injectors, exhaust with decat basically). It was just an idea, and it's a flex fuel pump so it can take either ethanol or pump fuel. You could have 2 tunes done, one on pump fuel one on ethanol and only use ethanol at a track, which would keep your costs down. Worth an extra £30? Probably. However, if I can get this pump for £60, then is it worth the extra £70? No probably not. Would just upgrade if I ever decided to go down that route.
  13. Right who's game? and who's paying for me? 😂 5 days, 8 countries driving some of the best roads throughout Europe. https://www.thegentlemansjolly.com/grandtour2017
  14. Glad you're ok bud. Hoovered the car out and finally got around to cleaning the dog fur off haha.
  15. Apparently Morrison's sold it, but not anymore? It's never taken off here apparently. It's everywhere in Sweden I've heard. Think I might of got a cracking deal on a Walbro unit from a legit place. £60 new.
  16. Oh there's also the Aeromotive 340lph as well, but it's about £130.
  17. Right, so looking at new pumps, again, and tempted to see about getting something that can support E85...or am I wasting my time with the lack of it in the UK (is it even sold here?). Been reading up on it and saw some ridiculous numbers on the stock turbo 😬 Basically got it narrowed down to the following (have to say the AEM is tempting to try) non E85 compaitables...AEM and Walbro both do a E85 compatible version with the AEM coming in at £112. Walbro 255lph (£75): http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/fuel-pumps/walbro-gss342-high-pressure-fuel-pump AEM 320lph (£88): http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/fuel-pumps/aem-electronics-320lph-high-flow-in-tank-fuel-pump RCM 340lph (£114): http://rogerclarkmotorsport.co.uk/store/product/24-rcm-uprated-fuel-pump-1992-2008 Help? Thoughts? Suggestions?
  18. Yep that's the one I'm interested in seeing. No turbo for the BRZ STI though?
  19. Yeah I like a bit of the PS4 as well 😂
  20. Yeah that's my plan after I tune it...
  21. Alpine or Pioneer can't go wrong. Alpine if you've got ££££ if you're buying new. Traded for that mechless, no DAB but I doubt I'll miss it if I'm honest. Have to have a awful looking antenna mounted on your glass somewhere to get decent reception.
  22. Yeah it's in the fuel tank. You're thinking of the fuel pressure regulator? It's easy to do, just a bit of a pain to get it out as the hole is small. Just be careful not to bend the float arm. If you need help I can probably help. Takes a screwdriver, 8mm and some pliers. Maybe a hour or so max? Just make sure you disconnect the battery before doing it as well 😊
  23. Haha some good ones! Knew @Rps would be good for some haha
  24. Just checked it there on comparethemarket.com Admiral, no box £840 for the year. I'm in the North seats, NE post code...
  25. I got a quote for £750 I think for the year (could be £900 can't remember) with Admiral with one or two mods, but nothing ridiculous. My wife is older than me, and has the no claims (15+ years). She's got a company car so I used her no claims to put me as main driver on my 06 STi. Also put her Mam down (who will never drive the car) on policy as it lowered the premium even more. Not too bad considering I've never driven a "performance car" in the UK and have 1 accident (my fault) back in 2013 (I think?). Plus I have 2 claims (£1000 each, 2017) in from my stepdaughter getting her car through my work vandalised which is annoying...
