Sorry for he typo, I meant to say mire instead pf mirth

This last October. at about 0530hrs, in an effort to save an old lady crossing the street, I happened to twitch the wheel, just a mite. My car did a 180 sideways with all 4 wheels on the ground, hit the sidewalk, flew up into the air, and while in the air, did a 360 front and back and a 450...

Hey Cassie, My first post after 3, mebbe 4 years. and i have the honor of sending it to you, even if i have taken the liberty to do so, without as much as a if I may. here's my "penny's worth".... Get your man a new shell, , beaten as it may be. Walk up to him, and go," If you loved your...

You have my vote on that!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D Now Isn;t that better?. ;) ;) ;) ;)

But I think to myself, isn't the point of this exercise, to see how much You get out of your car, driving as you would normally? Otherwise it would be easies to just take someone's word for it...... So I guess there could be 2 schools of thought here: 1. How much can be wrangled out of...

Glad to hear that, Raptor. Well Best of luck with the shipping there, and happy installing. Would love an update. :D :D :D

Well Thank you for your praise, you are too kind! And I should have known better, than to open my mouth and put my foot in it. Makes me wish I had joined you in the beginning, as I would then have learnt such a lot more, seeing as I learn every single day here. And OG, I hope you...

Ok, since the debate is still on here, I just would like to invite your attention to the fact that Here in India, we need to have 70% transparency in the front and rear windshields and 50% in the sides. So you can have a total of 30% tint front and back, and 50% on the sides. This includes...

As are women folk! They both demand to be treated right, even when we get flustered by some of the things they do to us................ ;) ;) ;)

Chevy El Camino! If you can lay your hands on one, you'd be a made man! Loads of mod capabilities with a car like ride. Think about it for a moment?..............

Here's my 2-bits worth: Please ensure that the thickness of the wood is slightly mored than the width of your disks, 'coz you otherwise need to pry them open after the bleed. And if you are ok with sacrificing some brake fluid, I would suggest that you install the caliper , and then do the...

Well turbonutter69, am not too savvy with FI, but with the carbs when this occurred, the fault generally could be attributed to: a. The vacuum hose b. Failing coil, point, condenser c. Blocked jets/ air intake( air intake, he has already attended to) Mebbe with the Knock-sensor, he could...

Most of the accidents I have seen involving Cell-phone users, I see the erring driver step out where he/she has that particular expression that they are doing US a favour by driving, while he/ she could have been in the office or at home, comfortably making that call. And yes the percentage...

Thats nice to hear Raptor, and so were you looking for any advice or suggestions, or simply announcing the kind of mod you had in mind for your Ka? ;) ;) ;)

Ok Gentlemen! i.e. Lutonmat and HDi Fun Lemme Invite your attention to the scan of my P.U.C. Certificate, as thats what its called here. Hope it is clear enough and the bilingual script does not confuse you. A thousand thanks to you, for clearing my doubts.

Tank wise I never stoop lower than 1/4 'coz m called out at all odd hours. Suspension wise I have a clearance of 130mm on my Zen, if that means anything here, but I have to maintain that due to the road conditions. My SX4 sits higher still, but I will get to it in time.

Race you there! ;) ;) ;) And if you reach there before me, Get a picture this time?........... :D :D :D

Ah yes, I see it clearly now.. I was wondering what she meant by Tight 16 Yr Old Hot Female. Now I see she must be a 16yr old miser, with the 'flu.....! ;) ;) ;) ;)

Well I don't know about you, but IMO, if a pedestrian walks into the front of my car, takes the liberty of climbing over my bonnet and trying to kiss my windshield, I would rather decapitate him than let him live to repeat his indiscretion!!................. And if you have hit a pedestrian...

Well I really would like this answered if someone can please. Not sure which computer or o/s I was using but I used to be able to copy paste images in the normal text areas of IE in most domains. But now I find with win 7 Ultimate, for some reason that eludes me, when I try to do this, I...

When you talk about replacing wipers, this is what I suggest, if I may: On the bridges of sea going vessels, to repel the rain water from the "windshield" there is an innovative gadget. There are 3 to 4 circular pieces of glass over the existing windshield. Here is an image which is not...

Great looking car there BFF. For the rims........I would go in for the black ones though, if you ask me. I am especially partial towards a black and red combination. The white powder-coating would not match and mebbe stick out like a sore thumb on a car that spells elegance and...

Glad to have you on board Silvester. The pundits here(excluding present author of course) are pretty much the best around. If , collectively or individually, they can't fix it, it can't be fixed, period. Great to see you have a project that has been initiated already. Anytime you get...

This looks the same as the original in my '62 Ambassador, with the 40mph being replaced by the main beam indicator. And I just asked me dad and though he too can not state with certainty, he is of the same opinion as he feels it looks very familiar.

My Brother-In-Law Has Suzuki Katana 650cc with the plates reading: ........................................UP 45S 0069............. Where the first 2 alphabets are the state, the next digits are the city, the next alphabet is "S" for 2-wheelers or "C" for 4-wheelers. the last 4 digits are...

The reverse horn!!!!! We have this little irritating gadget which plays all sorts of tunes, including "Bollywood" songs and curse words every time the car is thrown into reverse. At 0300 hrs. someone back from a night out, reversing into his driveway, blatantly forgets that others are...

Yeah tell me about it!.. Till yesterday I was conceited! Today I am perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D

Great! So now tell me................ Are you gonna come to the airport to drive my car home, or do you expect me to drive by meself in a strange land?..........;) :D :D :D :D :D But I will certainly be posting a scan of the certificate, so you can tell me what all the readings are...

Smart move, if you think you've got a keeper. While here, the debate progresses....;) ;) ;)

25/m was the HC reading. Heck if I had me printer going now, I would scan the cert and ask you to decipher it, 'coz I seem to know nothing about this, especially when you pose these question...... :D It would be a learning experience for me, for sure.

Forgive me father 'coz I have erred! My bad! What with the local dialects here its difficult to know for certain. Now could this expert have meant 1.4 mm? And I have a petrol station not 300 yards from me, that gives me 96 octane. Would you regard this as high octane? And what are...

My reading for CO was 0.1100 So I guess I would pass Mot in UK?.....................

Fill it up with reeds, blow on it, and hope to hear, "She'll be coming down a mountain;) when she comes!" :D :D :D :D

Well We have seen a lot of these shows anyways, and though yes you can pick up a few pointers from them, you really watch it with an entertainment aspect in mind. Since, i.e. in "The Ultimate Car Build Off" where they show how to convert a jet-ski in to hovercraft, or how pull up some "treasure"...

First off. The catalytic converters in Diesel engines have a different configuration than those in petrol engines. Next, if you have your engine in perfect/good condition you don't need the cat, as the emission levels would be below the allowed limits anyways. The reason they are present is...

My Zen is going through major face-lift and internal Mods. It is a I.0 ltr 16valve SOHC, with a compression ratio of 9.4:1 The bore is 72 mm and the stroke is 61 mm I was wondering if there would be any gain at all if I took off a couple of mm from the head, and thus increased the...

Could one be led to believe that you suffer from gephyrophobia? ;) ;) ;) ;) Just airing my ignorance. :D

Have a positive attitude here, brethren. Check out the latest prices of these wonderful machines of transportation. Mebbe they are for free. So get yourself one. See what discounts you get for insurance and mebbe a full tank thrown in, and then use the 12 quid to get some good wax...

I cannot sleep till i fix the problem I have noticed in the car. And JC your brother needs to look into the replacement of the rectifier/ regulator rather than the whole alternator, if the difference is drastic. That is if your specific model has one of these that are a separate unit by...

Tyre pressure. Alignment. Of-course safe parking maximum distance from the curb. Avoiding Industrial Areas or Cargo complex, since the vehicles there do drop debris that are potentially damaging to tyres. Also hard braking at intersections, since, to improve road grip, the bitumen...
