seeing as yer one and the same person it'd be a right cool trick for him not to follow you

i don't suppose you would care to explain how posts 1 and 3 of this thread appear to be from the same person ?

oh and i'd quite like to see that escort with the jet engine fitted, i'm thinking of doing the same but am having trouble fabricating the engine mounting brackets as the parcel shelf is in the way

cheers

Hey, you got found out, live with it. I'd have thought a Falklands veteran had more bollocks than running away ....

Banter is fine, you were just trying to appear to be something you aren't, and thus takling the **** but were too stupid to continue the subterfuge.

I wonder if there are any pics of the Veyron and 90 together ???

And Kate ??? Does she TIUTA ???
 
hehem, "veyron"

if he can afford a veyron, he'd get land rover to make him a challenge ready tdci 90 and have it polished every day, go offroadin around his little bit of land then come back. bless, some peeps with dreams

ive got an SLR ;)

is that the same with the motorbike on youtube with the jet engine, thats just a silencer thats a variable nozzle and changes pitch with the revs












:hurt:
 
i've got a 4" lift on my 90 and its sound.it makes your steering a bit twitchy,but if you are only going up 2" it shouldn't be as bad.instead of buying a kit it is easier to make one out of steel box section,it is dead easy.first get some 2" square steel box and cut it so it just fits into the underside of the bottom spring cups,then drill the holes to suit.either buy longer bolts to go right through the cup,box and axle mount or buy extra bolts and bolt the box the the axle first and then bolt the spring cup to the box.do the same for the front but you will have to drill a extra hole in each front box section for the shoch to mount to.hope this has helped,jimbo.

Wash your mouth out with soap young man..

Box section spacers!!:eek: Are you ultimate bodge it man? :der: You could have supplied a few details like thickness of the box section and at the very least you could have used a spacer that the whole of the spring sat on. Instead of promoting a potentially life threatening badly designed suspension lift that if incorrectly fitted could kill you.
 
how is this a bodge when the box section is the same size as the origanal axle mount!and i use quarter box which is about twice as thick as the origanal mount!ibut i should think your a more money than sense poser with brand new bought crap hanging off your motor!i take pride in making alot of the mods on my truck and over engineering them compared to some of the crap thats for sale!

hahahahahahaha I've never bought a mod unless I couldn't make it myself, at the moment I have a 1987 TD90. it has series doors on it and the only mods? are a tubular bumper £50 off ebay and a swingaway wheel carrier £40 also off ebay. it is fitted with 225.85/16 road tyres on steel rims and I have a set of 235/75/16 macho MT's for greenlaning trips. Everything else is std. You gave no details as to the thickness of box section to be used. As I said in my previous post if your going to advise some one to do a mod like this, then at least have the sense to make sure you accurately describe the process and materials required. You also made no mention of the need to inform your insurance company, who I am sure will be most unhappy with the proposed mod.

And then we come to the most important question of all WTF do ya want a 4" lift for???? Unless you use the vehicle for extreme pay & play events. there isn't a greenlane in the country that requires a 4" lift.
 
teehee!!! I thought the whole conversation about the Veyron was a bit suspect, very staged, this explains it - but as he said, yeah, a bit sad for a 50 year old man...hmm...now come to think of it hewhomustnotbenamed haing 12 accounts...hmmmmmm....bit quiet over there, time to do some trolling so as to create a new fred and liven things up a bit???:D:D:D
 
its not my job to give the bloke the exact dimensions and spec of the lifting blocks,i was just telling him how i've done it!as for the 4" lift comment,i don't go green laning.but when off roading its quite handy to have plenty of lift to get over things without scraping all your under carriage.i also need lift to clear my 36" tyres(sorry didn't make the tyres my self as didn't have the right tools,sooooo very very sorry).i suppose if you were a caveman and you came across somebody with a fire,you'd say its a waiste of time why would anybody need fire,i like sitting in the dark eats raw cold meat!!! UFBC!!
