I dont understand good on fuel

It was doing about 15-20mpg when the cat was knackered, blowing like hell at the manifold (im guessing the lamba sensor got the wrong reading) but now it does a lot more and just generally runs a lot better... got some Moon discs today too from a  friend :D had them lined up but he dropped them off tonight

Well i had Mike drop by yesterday to sort out my rear arches, got to say he did an amazing job and considering he has never done something like this before i think they look sick.

Probably not to every ones taste but it's a lot different to the standard gash Ibiza arches and if you saw mine from the mole grips they look a million times better :D

It's really hard to get a picture of them, need to see it in person really.

Just means i now need to go a lot lower on the front :D picked up some mini g60 steels the other day, going to get them banded to 14x9 and 14x10 :)

Oh and as some of you may know about my dickhead neighbour... i had another confrontation with him yesterday and he has really lost the plot :rolleyes: left all his doors open at 11pm after the argument and started banging, so i had to pop round to a few other neighbours houses just to basicly get backup that it isn't me in case they complain and try set us up, then he started again at 1am when i was out... he also told me to "go back to jail where i came from and get back on the weed" :D and when my dad came out (who has been living here for 22 years) he asked who my dad was because he has never "clapped eyes on him"  :huh:

This was all after i packed up and finished for 9pm and was stood outside talking to a a couple of people...

Hopefully these show the shape a little better - running 14x8 at the moment with 20mm spacers up front and 35mm spacers on the back, getting some mini g60 steels banded to 14x9 and 14x10 with spacers on the back :)
