  1. i got a mini titan and a trex se just started flying inverted this past weekend, what a rush .. its good fun till you hit the deck, but thats part of it, dont think you can fly without crashing its not going to happen
  2. i can see the 1.6 internals fitting in the 1.4 block as the bore is the same size .. as said, get a complete motor, its not worth messing around
  3. in short its an on/off system , a solenoid opens allowing oil pressure to change the cam timing , not much of a vvt
  4. cant say ive heard that before, you learn summing new everyday eh

    1.6 16v Turbo?

    lost interest i guess, mid life crisis , oh and helicopters are way more fun lets see , bmw got 1500 hp out of a 1500cc block 25 years ago by strapping on a turbo, sure it didnt last long , but you telling me thats with todays technology you cant get a fraction of that power ? a mate of mine in SA has/had a 600hp 2l 16v turbo in a scirocco with no nitrous thats spins mickey thompson slicks the whole quarter mile 10 sec quarters of a front wheel drive ... sure he has put in the time and money to get it, but thats the fun part isnt it ? Turbocharging for big power isnt hard, making it last is quote for the day hehhehe i need another beer
  6. must be if you need two boilers underfloor heating ? i see the mixing valve ?
  7. ive got thru mot without side repeaters before airbag is mot failure though, well mine was untill i slid a little bt of black insulation tape between the light and the dial face

    watching at an angle ? why would you watch a tv or movie 'at an angle' ? when you go to the cinema you dont watch a plasma or a LCD or whatever, you watch a projector and to me the ultimate is sitting halfway up the cinema with a box of salted popcorn and a coke , coca cola , not this diet shiit and personally the best way to recreate that same feel is with a projector for movies , for everyday tv a lcd flatscreen, plasma will do imo
  10. very easily fitted, there are clips all the way round the bumper that holds it on, you need to pull the bumper forwards (towards yourself) and at the same time you need to press the clip in to release it

    I have a projectiondesign projector and for movies you just cant beat it, if you got the space go for it
  12. the mesh and lower bumper are melted together at intervals, you can take it apart , but i dont think its worth the hassle (you gonna need to solder it back together) IMO
  13. "Attempt a Donkey Punch and it's likely that your asshole will wind up constricting spasmodically — around your cellmate's cock." where the hell do you hear of such things ?
  14. omg i have just found a use for youtube damn , some songs i havnt heard in years , snap http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1sZLSO9va0...ted&search= when last you heard that ? LOL loved the 90's , am i showing my age ?
  15. daft punk, love this tune ... http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=FMpsnDxNbqQ and prodigy - fire starter http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28ow4TLMTqM
  16. different answers on this one, i have heard that you need a new module (which i bought) but someone on here has said they had it recoded ? either way you will need to take it to vw to have it 're-armed'
  17. what you done to make the car so much faster that you need bigger brakes ?
  18. a quick rundown .. loosen passenger wheel , jack up gearbox side of the car and take wheel off, loosen the lower spindle ball joint an free the spindle from the lower control arm. Loosen both inner CV joints (will need a 12 sided key to do this) Place a trolley jack under the box and take up the slack, remove top gearbox mount and slowly lower the box (iirc you also need to remove the back gearbox mount at this point) then remove all bolts holding the box onto the engine about 5 or 6, slide box away from engine making sure you keep them aligned. remove pressure plate let the clutch fall out thats how i would do it .. you still keep your wheel alignment by not taking the strut loose as many people do
  19. you will still need a center speaker if you go to 7.1 , but unless you a real movie addict i wouldnt bother as you need to add two more speakers and its gotta be set up properly for the right effect (moving the sofa to almost the middle of the room) also , have you seen the difference of HD on a 40" screen compared to normal tv ? i walked into Oakwoods and asked the sales person to show me what all the hype was, i said im sorry but i dont notice the difference, to which he agreed ROFL on anything smaller than 40" i would think twice about the cost of HD , but hey im getting old and its probably just my eyes HD on my projector is a different story though just my 2p
  20. just matz got the template off my old mats to make the new matz, lol i bought a set of him a few years ago and they are top quality mats, better than the originals ? i would say yea
