It's Sunday - time for confession Father

[Barrykearley]

Only done 200 miles in her this week @davebarny..... I've already had one wiper blade fly off - bought some new taps today - so will bolt the next wiper on !!

got the screen blower working - but no heat - so probably need to flush the heater matrix through.

now the tps has been changed and throttle set to 100% it nails the boost gauge to 1bar.

working through that job list

Sounds great with that Progress.

I am second that about the quicksilver exhaust sounding great.

I have that too and later on, I added a free flowing 200 cell cat and the infamous alu..x exhaust manifold.

Now sounds really raspy, faster rewing and just sounds generally good. Well, good enough to scare a few fellow motorists in a tunnel that is    (3'rd with 6500 rpm).

Now where did that video or sound file you spoke about go?

Kind regards,

Jacques.

 

OOOhhhhhhh! I am now a victim of the y2000 syndrome - 2000 posts, of which most were absolutely not needed nor did any good

Great video Barry, its nice to be able to see things about your cars past, quite a well made video also,  Will have to turn the sound down next time as that 70s porn music drove me nuts

I wouldn't think he would have kept his license long driving like that - cool vid though for such a long time ago

[Barrykearley]

Nope his license didn't last long - have a look at the link about the car I put up !!

135 on the motorway 

[Barrykearley]

Just got home to a speeding ticket myself..... 

[swindon_alan]

What, while driving the S4? Is it cursed for being caught?

[Barrykearley]

Yep - 70 in a 50 - on way home with the chuffing thing

[eeyoreish]

It's definitely cursed, you should get rid of it ASAP. I could take it off your hands cheap... 

[Barrykearley]

Brooke you need to get to know the different car styles.....  If that was Barry as a young whippersnapper, it would  of been a ford model T 

[swindon_alan]

Nah Dan, knowing Barry it would have to be a Triumph...

Attending? Barry has done so many now that he is the lecturer...

[Chillidoggy]

I thought he sold the V8 because it was too fast, but it just serves to demonstrate that the 4-pots aren't exactly slouches, either.

That was not the reason and you know it.

That's the two top ball joints that came with the car fitted. I wonder if the clunking will stop now - the old ones weren't that clever - but could not feel much in the way of movement in them.

the antiroll bar bushes - they look a bit worn - and was highlighted on the last mot as advisory.  They do look very different from the ones on my red esprit ??
