  1. did the wheels come with the tyres for your car or another one?
  2. I have the same, heard it when I drove with the music off so I could listen to the car ( I do this every now and again) It only happens some of the time and from what I have gathered its nothing major so I just live with it. Haha Abbas thats exactly how i noticed mine, just cant get enough of the engine sound. ;) engine does sound so sweet!. had this on astra took a magnex to take my mind off it. i noticed a sqeek when i 1st got mine as well but only just remembered reading this post!! has anyone noticed the engine sounds even better with the aircon switched on? kinda growlier- i only have oem tailpipes
  3. the difference is when the tyres are fitted. asymetrical tyres can run properly clockwise or anticlockwise. when you look at the tyres fitted to the right and left wheels they tread patterns will not be symetrical a rough look would be asymetrical= <(( left tyre <(( right tyre normal symetrical tyre= <)) left tyre ((> right tyre so re050's can only be mounted on the rim one way and will be marked inner and outer. re050A's will not be marked inner and outer so can be mounted either to run clockwise or anticlockwise. asymetrical tyres always look a bit odd to me as if theyve been fitted wrong but the advantage is they can then be mounted on any corner of a car. confusing but hope this helps
  4. hi, my 1999 IS200 is currently up for sale unfortunately. 88k treg so cheaper tax after the hike! a few gems of additions as well lurking in my garage as well as still on the car :shutit: . pm if interested would be happy to send some pics and more details.
  5. roys motor company in norwich has an LS400 up for £1000 at the moment if its any help. less than 100k too in white. looks a nice car from the pic i saw in the paper.
  6. s*x with a two holed pea shooter beetle? i really wonder what he'd make of a gaping slut like an IS!!
  7. looks like a yaris with the middle chopped out of the middle. the door looks a bit small to get a human thru too
  8. recommended choice of 3 10w-30 15w-40 20w-50 for extreme low temperatures 5w-30
  9. ta chaps. would never of thort of milton. cant understand why this has happened cos i always put screenwash and water in there. any ways. whats the best way of draining the milton? am thinking up threw the passenger wheel arch to detach a pipe?????
  10. seems everytime i squirt my windscreen with screenwash a pong enters the car. anybody got any ideas how to get rid!
  11. both look good imho. not sure about white wheels on white car but as you say its personal choice- if i had to choose would personally go for the innovit VI's
  12. i was gonna say dont fall off as well! seriously tho its just like riding a push bike- ya never forget!
  13. left one. similar shape to the one i have- very comfortable and doesnt look out of place.
  14. well yeah not inc vat either. will just have to carry on without the wine
  15. yep seems like like they havent evolved into a bank yet from building society. spose i'm lucky i havent been into halifax recently! "need to see an advisor" lol halifax speak for telling you what to do with your own money i reckon!
  16. yeah i went back n used the site currency converter £4350 roughly. they do have importers in the uk tho. wonder what the group buy price would be!!!
  17. seems to me if they busy they busy. if everybody turned up at 2pm wanting to transfer money by 2.30 then it would still be a matter of waiting your turn? dont matter what bank ya go to they always gonna have other customers. if ya made an appointment then yes i could understand not wanting to wait about. my bank is always heaving with Q's too! sod's law innit. another thing is the kiosks are always all open when theres no Q's but when there are Q's theres like 2 kiosks open then ya have to wait for the little arrow to flash n buzz then you can be prodded forward to a kiosk where ya get fleeced like a sheep- sheep shearing the sheep! still at least ya banks still got ya money unlike barings a few years back!!!
  18. just random surfin the net and came across a webpage kempower.be loadsa performance stuff on there inc tte supercharger kits for e5700. cheapest ive ever heard of them being! site is in english but wouldnt kno weather to trust it- anybody else heard of this place?
  19. came up as jaguar E type for me. straight 6 or v12 i wonder!!
  20. sounds similar to a prob had with mine. turned out to be 2 coil pax. also changed plugs at same time.
  21. if its a coil pack or spark plug the manifold temperature will be way down on that particular cylinder compared to the rest. i had 2 coils fail on my engine and this how it was diagnosed. similar symptoms with the trc and engine light. coils are not cheap to buy- be warned!!! :tsktsk:
  22. nice car! not the one i was thinking of earlier tho.
