Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2003 E320 & 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI

I got a set of passable (6 to 32 combos) cheap from Lidl for less than 40 yoyos. Ideal candidates for remixing.

I only wanted a 22/24/27 for dicking around with airlines at work, but to buy separately...

Re: Eddie Honda's wheels of steel (and occasionally alloy)

Fucking hell, I remember you posting about taking that apart, didn't think it'd been ten years. It hasn't, it's MOAR! I think I first had my SiC poke of it around 2012, just after I moved here. I've got a shit load of parts to do the back axle, brakes and shocks somewhere... [ Looks at timestamp ] ...

Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2003 E320 & 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI

Boshed on the passenger side tie rod. Wasn't difficult at all. Got both sides to do on the Synergie when I can be arsed, so appreciate the tool review. You don't need one. Turn the rack to full lock and use stilsons or Molegrips to remove and refit. I use a bit of Wurth green threadlock. That makes...

It's not worth £1600 to me. Neither are they £160 any more.

I suppose it must be around a monkey (£500, not Hooli) these days.

Re: Eddie Honda's wheels of steel (and occasionally alloy)

The DPD man has been. Some tyres for the Pan Euro and Monsieur Auto finally appears. c1_20240329_08240917.jpeg Various front end bits for the Jizz. I don't need much beyond the drop links, but stuck shit loads extra on the order as free delivery takes about 10 days to rock up. It can sit on the shel...

Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2003 E320 & 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI

It's all generational. No it isn't, you cheeky git! I'm not that much older than you! There is a lot of 90s performance stuff I'd like That's never been my bag, the performance stuff that is, so I'm not affected by the '60s/'70s/'80s performance prices. Probably not interesting to many on here as s...

Re: United States of GRIZZ - Just how random do you want it?

How do they know people don’t cheat. They watch and guess, just like they do with self-service checkouts. Tesco, you have to be a clubcard holder. They add: What is a service check? From time to time, the Scan as you Shop system will prompt us to check a few products at random in a customer's troll...

Re: United States of GRIZZ - Just how random do you want it?

Scan as you shop is the process. Grab a handheld at the start and zap away as you go round. Never used one. How do they know people don’t cheat. (Based on the amount of times I see people eating stuff or drinking and shoving the wrappers into an aisle shelf. Yup…… I follow, watch and fucking hate t...
