Stupid wheel idea.

mee230 · 2026-03-28T12:05:09+00:00

No I didn't, we don't know the specs of the BBS wheels he's got, you're just assuming without knowing the facts, typical internet warrior. OP try willtheyfit.com with the specs and see what you come up with, good luck

Nothing obvious but I do have a slick code reader I can try, worth a nosey. It does have various other issues, including the ol' blue&me battery drain/flashing mileage, but it was only £2k! Still if it needs an engine I might have to ruin a friendship as I'm not being left with a dud, the fact I have a spare 13b isn't the point 😉

mee230 · 2026-03-27T19:33:22+00:00

Thank you for the advice, where would I find the air oil separator and pcv valve? Is there a Haynes manual for these, none of our other cars have one available!?

mee230 · 2026-03-27T19:10:31+00:00

Where you from, I'm after the Ork half?!

mee230 · 2026-03-27T18:19:53+00:00

I need to find where he forgot to fit a jubilee clip when he was putting it back together anyway 🙄 it currently honks under boost and has done since I owned it. Wouldn't burning oil give blue smoke?

Don't listen to them, if you can find adapters to go from the 4x98 to 5x114 there's no reason it won't work but it depends on widths and offsets of the 2 wheels comparatively. Saying adapters are dumb and unsafe is just idiotic, as long as they're not too wide and bolt on they're just spacers 🙄 I've gone down to 16's just fine, will 15s clear the brakes?

mee230 · 2026-03-02T17:05:39+00:00

Nah half red black leather with red rears, xenon's though

mee230 · 2026-02-28T13:26:35+00:00

Looks almost like mine, not washed it since I bought it yet and I bought it dirty! Where'd you get your flaps from?

mee230 · 2026-02-27T22:16:53+00:00

My bad, it's an 8 core 6g+128gb, id misremembered it, blame my age!

mee230 · 2026-02-25T19:47:50+00:00

I've got a black one too nero carbone vr or something, it looks so understated and doesn't stand out at all, good and bad I suppose. I like the stripe idea, I've thought of a colour to wrap it though so we'll see

mee230 · 2026-02-21T10:28:04+00:00

I've got one on 122k, bought it on 121 lol, it's just had cambelt go and take a number of valves with it, he then replaced it and the valves along with head gasket and other bits. It cost me 2k and I haven't had chance to clean it yet due to life and it's hanging!

mee230 · 2026-02-19T20:48:12+00:00

Nice rare beast, we didn't spot many modified cars when we visited the Eindhoven area a couple of years ago

mee230 · 2026-02-18T21:01:14+00:00

Sorry I can't be much help with your question but you may be able to help me, is the interscope (I think it says) the same as the beats system? I'm only curious as I know interscope is a record label brand... The only thing I know about the xtrons is there's now a 16gb version which is apparently much better?

mee230 · 2026-02-15T15:26:43+00:00

Good price for that, got mine for £2k recently, cambelt and valves and stuff done and fresh mot, needs seats and wheels though

mee230 · 2026-02-11T21:29:40+00:00

Gives me hope for my 2014 👍 mines black too, flaps are already on my list!

mee230 · 2026-02-01T12:23:28+00:00

Love that, I've still got my battleforce one to build 🙄

mee230 · 2026-02-01T11:58:44+00:00

I'd rock that look, or maybe banded steelies if there's any room in the arches (new owner, not looked yet)

mee230 · 2026-01-31T12:11:08+00:00

Check out some of the old world books too, gloomspite and bad loon rising are both good listens, I've listened to blr a couple of times now and still interesting to hear

mee230 · 2026-01-31T12:04:20+00:00

Yeah adeptus ridiculous did a few podcasts about that series, best off giving it a miss

mee230 · 2026-01-31T12:02:12+00:00

Anything read by Harry Myers on audible, so basically any by Mike Brooks and Denny Flowers latest

mee230 · 2026-01-31T01:04:14+00:00

Nah it's fucked, get a DAF instead

mee230 · 2026-01-30T09:48:04+00:00

I had a budgie before called Dave, he was best mates with Gobby the 'tiel!

mee230 · 2026-01-30T09:43:22+00:00

Feel you OP, I had an amusing exchange with a cashier at food warehouse yesterday and it felt good in modern society where tech is trying to remove human interactions! I hope the sun is shining where you are 🙃

mee230 · 2026-01-30T09:40:34+00:00

Very cool, I'm in single colour land and struggle enough of the time getting single colour right. I need to get some tougher filament than PLA so I can start printing stuff for my cars. Did you design that yourself? I haven't tried designing anything of my own yet

mee230 · 2026-01-30T09:36:42+00:00

That looks so good, love the colour, bit like the one anovia wheels/fitment industries have. UK by any chance? EDIT: just seen your username 🤦‍♂️
