    Are you a good passenger

    I have to be the worst passenger ever. I sit and cry in the passenger seat like a little girl if anyone goes over 60 lol. Just been in too many bad accidents with people who thought they could drive. These days, I don't trust anyones driving. Different story sitting beside my dad though, would...

    Jealousy or respect

    Of course I get jealous. If it's something that really interests me, I'll always try and have a chat with the owner if possible. Sometimes you meet really decent people that just worked hard for what they have and you might even get taken for a spin.

    How have mechanics let you down

    I've been to a garage twice. First time to get a clutch in a Legacy. They didn't put the nuts on the end of the front driveshafts and didn't put the bolts in to hold the hub to the TCA. I noticed half a mile down the road after I nearly went through a hedge. Second time, left a Diasatra in to...

    Drill Bit Sharpening

    PD vs CR engines

    All completely in my own experience and opinion... Commonrail engines are a fantastic idea in theory. Max power v effiency, let the computer sort it all out. When it works, it's great, when it doesn't, it's just another bill at the end of the month. PD, when a cylinder needs fuel, it gets it...

    Ideas on a type of garage

    Google "Motor Gym Bangor" It's something similar to what you're talking about, you can have a look and see how they operate. I looked into doing something similar with a mate about 3 years ago but the public liability insurance was going to eat up all the profit and leave us on basically less...

    Which muffler can make the loudest turbo sound for ur car?

    A Cherry Bomb is probably as loud as you can get. I used to be a big fan of the Peco Big Bore 4. Can you still get them?

    What is your worst journey in a car?

    Worst journey? Used to have a '98 Legacy. Loved it to bits, hacked an Impreza WRX bumper and spoiler onto it and fitted a WRX engine. I thought it was the mutts nuts, there was nothing else like it at the time. Anyway, going to see The Misfits one night, one of my top 5 bands and the wheel fell...
