must of been on its way out, is that not a knock link sensor beside the AFR gauge?

It even says "well it was on its way" looks like its his car so i cant see a problem with what hes doing. Think he needs to change the clocks tho.

Why on earth would you do that??? I know not many people like scoobys but that would have been someones pride and joy before he bought/stole it.

It's a knocklink that someone has modified to extend the LEDs. People extend them themselves to tidy things up instead of having the whole knocklink on display.

Why do people say 'whats the point?' Why not? he OWNS the car, its HIS to do with as HE pleases, if they engines fucked and he has a new one for it, chances are he will throw it away and forget about it, so might aswell see how long it lasts under the hammer..

I don't think it should be done by everyone but if you feel like it, I have no hard feelings.
