    yeah it seems to be a very worth while job to do! :)

    Thought the paint looked dead in the picture, if anything those lights would have made it look a bit better.
    Didn't want to say anything until you saw it though and made your own mind up though.

    The car sounds great, hopefully you can move yours quick enough. :)

    How's your issue coming along these days? We've not had an update in recent times, although I did drive through a bit of Tipp yesterday and I thought I could hear you rattling about somewhere. :P

    LOL :D I'm nowhere closer to getting it sorted. I need to have the money for the turbo and labour ready to go as my own turbo has to be sent back to BMW within 2 weeks. Due to this, I can't just get the rebuilt turbo and wait until I have the money for the labour.

    Just got the new tyres, tax at the end of the month then starting to save for this job.

    Nice :D Where was this?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    I was in a taxi listening to Cannibal Corpse and talking about metal through the ages before. I think it was an S Class, I was quite drunk.

    Magic moments, as used in old quality street chocolates ad was the strangest taxi cd for me.

    Rammstein taxi is in limerick city.

    Oh and I can confirm Jamesy did in fact contribute 20e to charity as a result of the "Guess what car RJ bought" thread.
    Well done Sir :)

    Just coming home from town 10 minuates ago. Heavy rain dark bad country road just wide enough for 2 cars to pass. A car comes towards me with parking lights and foglights on no dipped lights. People are mad with them lights they would have next to no visibility. Can people not just buy some bulbs and replace or get halfords etc to change them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,238 ✭✭✭Ardennes1944


    I very much doubt his dipped bulbs were blown. It was probably a felter trying to look mad with his side and fog lights on


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    Wouldn't surprise me, the amount of people that don't give a **** about their lights is mental.

    On the subject of lights, the rubber seal to protect my dipped light was sort of melted when I went to replace it, looked like it hasn't been changed in years.

    I know but it was pitch black on country back roads no street lighting or any lighting. Floods everywhere. Foglights and parking lights wouldn't give anywhere near enough light on these roads. I know people go around cities with these lights on but you have street lighting. Their lights must of been blown.

    Ah phew I thought I was going mad! Thought about the time I lent bulbs to a chap with one but then sold the car with them so there's someone driving around with my yellow lights laughing they got a free set from an idiot that forgot to take them back....

    Sorry, rambling. They do perish with age, I'd be inclined to get a new one from Nissan :)

    Ah I see. Nice one, man. Must enquire about this.
    Those and wiper blades are on the cards for next week, it's about time!

    Also, dyno day being organised over in the Modified section, makes best sense to get everyone involved. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,298 ✭✭✭Supergurrier


    o0 Dyno day


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,985 ✭✭✭✭dgt


    Dyno day eh? :D

    I'd probably be banned from everywhere with the amount of smoke the car is producing, thanks sticky wastegate :(

    If I get the new turbo in time though I'll have a rip at it :)
