  1. Heh my almost 2 year old daughter told the wife yesterday, "No listen!". They get attitude from a young age!
  2. I see you've upgraded your car a bit MattyP. Gotta give you some smiles ay?
  3. Most motors aren't "charged" when they are cruising so I don't think it would matter. Obviously some form of intake cam timing is necessary to make it happen later. Maybe the cam timing is already set like that? I have no idea but I'll have a look eventually.
  4. I 've been away for a bit but I guess that explains your no drinking for 6 months? Congrats guys and sucked in as well. High five for looking after your baby before it's born. Lol my missus is getting crankier as the baby takes up more room. It looks like it will be a big one again. I had a 3 stage touch lamp years ago and I loved it. Easy than a switch when your half asleep and better to have a low level of light when you're awake every 2 hours.
  5. Gunna chuck these in when the brakes rock up. Should make it a bit betterer.
  6. I'm sold. Number 4 baby aka number 2 daughter is due in 11 weeks. If anyone needs me I'll be out buying touch lamps this weekend. I'm thoroughly done with the sleep quality for the past 5 years.
  7. For the more crazy modders amongst us it's true. If you break it then you build it better or turn it down but eff that. Oh and to keep it on topic I'll add the point that having a properly working recirc or bov will keep your turbo spinning faster between shifts in a manual. As your car changes, everything from tyre pressure to pcm benefits from tuning. Arduino bov controller ftw.
  8. Ahh motivation, such a fickle thing. Fook motivation, just do what you want. Literally get up and do what you want. You want your car fixed? Go outside, grab your tools and start the process. Rain wont kill you and neither will lying on a cold driveway. You want all kindz of gains? Get in the gym and start with baby weights until you become a musculine elephant. I always say "Do what you want, not what you feel". This applies if you feel good or bad about any particular decision. I stopped smoking back in 2010 with this in mind. If you can't achieve your goals then change what you are doing. We don't need easy, we just need possible. Inb4 "just do it" meme is posted
  9. Pretty sure I have some new hose in the shed. Using 25 year old hose to replace the original hose probably wasn't the best idea.
  10. Stock intake tract, apart from k&n filter with gtx wheel and 0.7 gt3582r (1) front housing. Hardly a choo choo to be heard. Choo choo galore with the smaller wheel and housing.
  11. I pulled over for a wee wee about 5 minutes before the gauge went up. When I stopped I noticed the smoke, popped the bonnet and got coolant in the face at the same time that I noticed the glowing turbo. I babied it home from there. No heat knocks/rattles or power loss so I think it's all good. If the turbo is broke you can tell my wife that I'm using my 50mm external gate on my next setup. I don't want to tell her cos she'll be mad.
  12. Keef yeah the kids are asleep and the missus is half awake. I'll fix the it tomorrow if it's not raining. Just started pissing down again.
  13. Sorry Keef and Stubbie it was my fault and probably still is. I blame my wife for going to bed too early. Also I stabbed the crap out of myself with a rusty nail before and just got a tetanus shot. On the plus side my car is intact.
  14. All clean. Hopefully I didn't feck it up this time.
  15. Ok well I'm going to go outside and wash under my bonnet a bit. No need for pics as it's pitch black right now. At least it isn't pissing down right now.
  16. I didn't see your post until after I posted my thing...I think
  17. As the kids say when in tassie, " dad says the farken farkas farked
  18. It was smoking like a bitch. It's dark and raining now but I'll go hose it off. The turbine housing was glowing red so it can cool down a bit. That was a nissan hose from a rb30. That will teach me to be a cheap bastard.
  19. Yep I'm dumb. What link should I use? Da uda wun?
  20. Oh really? I was going to do that anyway lol.
  21. It broke the little coolant hose above the air con compressor. Coolant everywhere and hit 3/4 on the gauge by the time I got home. link me the pic structions please?
