Hope you know your north from your south  :lol

I use a Phillips one in that same series for the UK, excellent, has done sterling service since 2006.

Replaced the FJs Wiring loom with a brand new one as all the wet weather that we have had has killed the original.


Re: What did you do with whatever else you've got? - Frosties - 08-03-14

Worked on the cage - 2 new wishbones (total bastard job), 1 new shock, changed ATF (smooth now), new thermostat, fitted 2 new front brake lines and bled through.  Oh the joy........ :rolleyes


Fazer getting TLC tomorrow..........

Nope, Ovlov V70 2.4T chipped to 260Bhp, poly bushed, uprated shocks/brakes. Upsets a few people when they get burnt  :lol :lol

It shifts quite well for a brick & handles pretty good for a barge now its been played with. Trouble is, I only use it weekends and mainly for towing the Pikey Wagon so need an estate for kids stuff etc :rolleyes .  You can still burn the chavs though, hits 60 in about 6.5, tops at 150mph, stops on a sixpence, corners well and looks totally standard which is the fun bit :lol . Neeeeeeeeed morrrrrrrrrre poweeeeeerrrrrrrrrr!!! Big Grin

Picked the cage up from  Vauxhall on Avon street , not as expensive as I thought it was going to be , but still £ 451 .


:lol [size=0.7em] wish my vauxhall was that cheap sometimes.[/size]

2001 diesel astra estate, had it 6 years, used 3 alternators before the garage spotted the leaky water pump above it. Who designed that?
Hopefully it will get better now. :rolleyes

Fixed the indicator switch on the Blackbird, which meant completely disassembling the switch to clean 16 years of shit out of it.

Also washed the car (3rd time in 2 years) and bodge-fixed my pressure washer.

Went for a quick blat to glasson dock on the thundercat. It reminded me how much I really need to set the suspension up properly! :o:o

And how painful 13,000rpm sounds!

your going a bit sooner than me......company would be good though......looking at the french road network today iam finding it hard to plan a route without using motorways....italy easy.......or is it me ?


Re: What did you do with whatever else you've got? - Mattsplat - 11-03-14

You said you were getting a satnav, put your route in the machine then tell it to avoid motorways.
