Well eBay user test-equip might be one to avoid. Ordered part on 1st July. No banana yet. Item still in transit so realistically RM have probably lost it at this point. Raised a dispute. No reply for over 1.5 days and then uploaded proof of postage and said “can you check with your local depot. Hope it will arrive soon”. Well fuck no I can’t check because it’s impossible to get hold of anyone, it’s not my problem until it’s signed for and quite frankly hope is not what I paid for. Grr.

This is the infernal ROM.

No prize, just a quiz, what is it?

The units on the display give away the basic functionality.

Edit: Oh, and if that's not in need of repair and actually has a sample in it, it's fairly hot. (125 mCi)

Still 10x the car as my Mk1 Capri, tho. :P

The little Cologne V4; what were they, a 1500...? 1300...? Ghahhh.  :palm:   Can you believe I scratch-built headers for that fuxxoring little automotive backbirth? I thought it'd be just like my Cologne-V6 Spitfire project, only more room to work. Well that part was true... every time I'd swing a wrench, my elbow would go through some newly discovered rust spot.  |O

   I had a SAAB 95 estate with the little  Ford V4. Fun car.

Awww, heavens Robert... and you admit to it...? I'm proud of you. ;) But seriously... all y'alls pick on the old Citroens as butt-ugly when there's that to compare it to...  :wtf:

The exhaust note just crackled and popped, while the shorty canister mufflers had a delicious burble at idle that turned into a nice throaty rumble under load that never popped or blatted. I was quite pleased with myself on that job.

I do like a smooth exhaust note, and hate the buzz and crackle.
But, nothing beats the sound of a supercharger. :D




I do still miss that car.. (fkn boosted 4-cyl rice burners!)

I've had a lot of fun in huffed and squirted rice-rockets... but every last one of 'em sounded like a pissed off bumblebee. ;)

Until you hit the fast-gas... then they sound like a pissed-off bumblebee on crack. :-DD

Few years ago I got a selection of HP LED displays from that seller, back when prices were much lower.

The Tek ROM is probably in the same place as this HP accessory kit, that never arrived (different seller & b-INPOST used).
