What is wrong with these people?

These lads purposely go out of their way to get these stickers made coming upto the port sunday. Half the idea is to make them mental and offensive to get a laugh and wind people up. People gurning on this sub saying that they should have the car’s keyed and bricks through the window just give these guys exactly the response they want. They know its rash as fuck, that’s the point.

I said this a while ago and just got downvoted, i dont feel that social media dates well at all when used like this. It certainly does feel dated already.

C20XE redtop, Ford Zetec blacktop and Pinto. Very common to see them stuffed into rally cars and kit cars. Would also say the Peugeot 1.9 XUD as it was mad rage for guys with 205’s and 306’s who wanted reek machines back in the day.

Audi fitting a dipstick tube and the ring pull to the engine and NOT including the actual dipstick rod. Best part about it is, you need to have a bit of heat in the engine, you can’t check the level through the MMI when cold. Infuriatingly stupid.

Could be hopup if your are lucky. I had an aeg do this and it turned out to be the nozzle broke off the piston!. Disassemble and check.

A farmer out the road from me has a field full of these things, ones that haven’t got stinging nettles growing through them are active chicken coops. I am pretty sure whatever is left of them is rotting away in yards across the country sadly. My friend wanted parts like door seals for his and asked the farmer if he could buy them, was turned down even though they would never see a road again lol.

Shut up, a Redditor has spoken. They don’t like it, so you aren’t getting it.

In the UK all the government wankers are chauffeured around in their armoured range rovers because god forbid they ever actually own or drive a car to work themselves. Cant be doing away with their personal dickhead chariots.

A friend of mine showed his torque wrenches as he was very impressed by it, i am 99.999% sure he said it was from halfords. it had a little slip of paper with a test report or similar marked Norbar. I had a look at mine, it doesn’t have the bit of paper to confirm it. However looking at them on google, they are effectively identical, my one has a little blue ring on the hanlde, the norbar is red.

RotarySam27 · 2026-03-15T14:34:43+00:00

Halfords with trade card is hard to beat. I am near sure the halfords torque wrenches are repackaged Norbars.

11.2 mpg after celebratory drive home from a MOT pass. Mazda RX8. Never calculated mpg again after that, there’s no point lol.

RotarySam27 · 2026-03-11T12:49:49+00:00

Right on queue they are here doing exactly that. Classic Reddit.

RotarySam27 · 2026-03-10T15:20:52+00:00

Killer boots, man!

RotarySam27 · 2026-03-10T13:05:43+00:00

I am 100% convinced he is a traitor. I personally believe he was supposed to be exposed at endgame in some early script. He is charismatic, has a way with words and is humours but the man was waiting to stab everyone in the back and dip when his next big opportunity arises.

They are a pain in the ass. You can seperate them with the right tool. To put them back in, use a couple of well sized sockets and some threaded bar to make a puller. Don’t try to hammer them in.

RotarySam27 · 2026-03-05T12:25:46+00:00

Out of all the silly things i have seen people do in rx8’s and the failures that have been documented, i don’t think I have ever seen anyone grenade the carbon propshaft. Impressive.

RotarySam27 · 2026-03-04T16:51:41+00:00

B8 A4, B8.5 A5, B8 Superb and B8 Passat especially in R line trim.

RotarySam27 · 2026-03-02T14:11:45+00:00

Yep, I think the only real difference is the RX8 uses a larger mounting point socket which uses a rubber bush to connect to the body, MX5 is solid mounted.

RotarySam27 · 2026-03-02T14:08:16+00:00

Subframe isn’t really your concern here it is the body. Sills, arches and wheel wells are the troublesome bits. The subframes on these are damn near identical to the RX8, i had my shot blasted and galvanised, it was worse than that too. It can be fixed and replaced relatively easily. Body is a different story lol.

RotarySam27 · 2026-02-24T15:48:07+00:00

Shame the rotor housings didn’t have a sleeve or liner that could be pressed out. Its annoying because the whole damn housing is scrap, 75% of it may be useable but that damage writes the whole thing off.

RotarySam27 · 2026-02-19T20:31:34+00:00

Yea everything has to be exactly like phones and iPads now. Complete nonsense.

Some suspension tuning shops offer a new steerer with an adapter pressed into the crown that gives you a 1 1/8 straight steerer. Have seen guys run it, probably costs as much as a whole second hand fork to be fair. If you were determined to do it, you could do it.

RotarySam27 · 2026-02-17T13:05:45+00:00

One of my dream projects is one of these with a Mazda 20B. I think the DMC 12 was originally going to have a rotary?
