you sure were having fun in your photos............ need new tyres maybe? :P


Have to say, the tyre marks are nothing to do with me - they were already there. The VX isn't really built for donuts and drifting (plus i'm not 12yrs old :gayfight: )

very nice example mate....


Thanks Luke.
You were a big help in my choosing a car - need to get you a beer at somepoint chinky chinky

Just noticed your missing the engine cover thingy....from the boot lid....wet plugs....not good


Yeah, that's on the list. Had a look at Wolfstone's last weekend and will need to do it soon.

Looking good Graeme. Glad to see you've given it a clean since last weekend. :P


Well i couldn't take it to a photoshoot looking like that could I Ken? Thanks for your help with the TAT last weekend as well - much appreciated. Your coffee/beer at the next Beds meet is on me chinky chinky

I had no idea mate - you should have come over and introduced yourself!
Saw your VXR8 (and wondered if you'd run out of fuel when parked/abandoned on the holding pad :gayfight: ) and it looked lovely! You were obviously doing a feature with our 'illustrious' news and features editor then?
Feel free to PM me about it.

Graeme,

How do you find your boost gauge where it is? I'm considering where to mount three of my gauges but i'm a bit stumped.

I would do what cookies220 has done and put them in the dash. B)

Are you going with a Black V? Or maybe Carbon Fibre? Either would look :wub:

I have a black V - left it in Scotland with my parents when I picked the car up. Need to get them to bring it down or pick it up next time i'm back. Then of course need to wait until the clam is off to fit it... :angry2:

No need to remove clam, drill a couple of small holes in the sides of the V and use some thin tie wraps to attach it to the grill, practically invisible thumbsup

I think Ouchie is the expert in this, I seem to recall he's posted pics before.
Works a treat.
