I need to buy a battery, my car alarms on startup nearly every time!!

 

Get down too Halfrauds with your trade card

 

Yeah, I need to find it first!! Saying that, I'm off to Plymouth this weekend, I may take my certificates down and get another. How much will I be looking at?

 

iirc the Calcium one with the 4 year guarantee are about £60, I was up your way last week flying to Cyprus, you could have lent mine while I was away

 

Thats a kind offer! I need one as I'm always buying bits and pieces from there and it makes the price more palatable. I'll get the calcium one then

 

a 1999 uk turbo 2000 with a blown 3rd gear
so need a gearbox .................. anyone?

 

Syvecs and ACT extreme organic clutch kit for me.
One day I may stop buying for the car.

 

Hi Myles,

I bought a calcium battery from Halfords last year, it was the 500 amp (I think?) on start up and I paid around £100. Not sure what discount you get?

It's been fine since I've had it, and as Jon said comes with a 4yr warranty

 

Yesterday I bought some anthracite Prodrive OZ alloys off a P1. They are a bit beat up but I got them for a good price. Need to get them refurbed and then swap my tyres over off the wrx wheels.

 

Full price is about £85 but I've used my trade card to get a few of these and they come in below £60

 

ive brough all my bits for fully forged engine being done now and just brough a new rc car that was 1000 missis is going to kill me lol so spent abit this week tbo
