    didnt think they would even let the GT on at first after reading it, but after speaking to a few regulars they said i would be fine, so will book this in a few weeks i think, only 1 session though, ive already got a long list of things to replace from the 15 mis yesterday!

    so far, new brake fluid (DOT5.1), New pads, (think disks are ok), new rear shocks as i popped the oil seal on one of them, didnt notice until i hit the bumpy streets of Cardiff, definately need rear subframe bushes or something, gonna need to do a search to see what exactly i can do, and some general TLC.
    Needs a service though, as my oil is now dark brown/black, rather than gold/light brown.

    i did get the oil to around 130 Degrees Celcius though

    found some more pics of me and the idiot in the ibiza, and some pics of the scooby hitting a wall!!!! take a look!!!!

    http://newportedition.myfreeforum.or...about4008.html

    and tha rapid G reg gold that apparently has 250bhp, although it was no quicker than my GT in a straight line, but slaughtered me in the corners, only reason i let him past.

    ive just registered an account so i can give them (well, 'tony100' a peace of my mind, the bloody idiot!!)
