Great job, but so much easier with proper tools and not this Tesco value stuff - we'll get to Halfrauds with my trade card and get you a decent socket set

 

Funny you say that, I was at work and had to use some of the Tesco special "Ronson" tools.....I kid you not, the pliers plastic handle slipped off and a screw driver snapped in half from the handle!!

 

- only you

 

Mate if you did not have bad luck you would have no luck....

 

Looks good and great job Ricky,this anti surge is really looking like nice piece of kit


Jura

 

Another bodge if you ask me

 

I reckon when Ed China retires from Wheeler Dealers, they'll be a job waiting for you there Rick

 

These don't stop surge. Been there before myself and personally the last thing I want on track is my engine sucking up fresh air when I've got my boot in at 7k rpm.

Ricky,
Good seeing you get your hands dirty! I've actually forgot what that's like.

what ya getting crossthread ?

 

I was pissed while on ebay last night & seemed to have purchased another set of wheels 18" Rota Force in Bronze (though 2 are different colours!)

 

Let me guess, 5x100 PCD too

 

Edited on next page: Now going with Mazda 11B paint code

lolol

2 are brand new in Bronze, the other 2 were display items, - 1 in black & 1 gunmetal. So will get the two sprayed in bronze Mazda 23F Paint code, which after much www digging seems to be the closest match to the highly secretive paint codes of wheel manufacturers.


Mazda Light Sandalwood metallic (Galaxy gold metallic) 23F

 

Sorry Jon- I deleted my post as it turns out Ricky cross threaded his picture posting and then corrected it!

I reckon a Pritt stick and some glitter would do the job anyway!

 

I reckon Ricky would end up with more glitter on the pritt stick than the wheel

 

 

Mikee I could at the same time ***** stick your chopper which I recently believe fell apart!

 

 

Alternatively I could Glitter up your lycra running outfit John

 

Mantaz when did you fit those??

 

I've already glittered up the mankini

 

We don't really want to know where you want to stick Mikee's chopper

 

My busted chopper is a very sore point...

 

It'll be even sorer if Ricky starts sticking it....

 

Sadly it means I can't play with it at the moment.

 

 

I like those wheels alot

Colour change would speak with Mags about the going with Hyper Black,Mags powder coated our ST TDCi wheels to the Hyper Black and we are really happy



Jura

 

Nice pic Jura

I had my std STI wheels done in Hyper Black from Maggy & they looked awesome. But this time as two wheels are already in Bronze I will just have to get the other 2 done.
