I cant stop laughing at this thread either :lol: 10k limit credit cards are meant to help you dig your grave. Stay eN/A, thats the way to go.....turbo will always be there for you in the future if you got the money saved up then.

ok i decided what to do! ... i asked mum and i thought she might of been abit more generous but no she said "gtfo"

looks like i just gotta ignore some rich kids ...

not being able to turbo my fto has given me more determination on modifying her! ... talk about determination? i took off my front bar with a monkey wrench ... yup took me nearly 2hours again. *wished i had a rachet*

well I think your first mod would be to get your self some tools and then look at what you can do to your car.

I have a $20 set if anyone wants it. The rachet does't work properly anyone, but it still works.

Charlie, if you want it then I'l give it to you when I pick up the UAS kit.

Yeah I only could afford snapon as a apprentice, cause i could put it on tick.

There are lots of quality brands now days and a lot with life time warranty's which was the attraction to snap on back in the day.
