It's been a long time since this thread was around and since there are so many newbies in the Stagea Section I thought it was about time to resurrect it so you can add to the list and reveal all about the mystery surrounding your sign in names.

For an explanantion on what the thread is about, go the original post on page 1.

*kicks things off*

Mine is actually my nickname given to me by my (then) 5 year old daughter. She used to be called "little chicken" as well as all the other usual baby names, but one day I was changing a nappy and called her "Stinky Chicken" and it just sort of stuck. Years later she decided that I should be called Stinky Rooster.

So, to all those that asked, it is NOT because I have extra fragrant genitailia......

As a keen jetskier and having destroyed many jetski's in my day I was looking for a new name for online gaming and just happened to be looking out into the backyard at a recently destroyed Seadoo XP Limited(Bit tipsy at the time if I am recalling the story right).

Anyway didn't mind it, people remember it and now I'm used to it.

this is an aoursome thread glad to see we can keep it alive.

Now my nuser name. i wanted somthing thast unique and i use petrolfix all across the net.

it came about cos me and my step brother (at the time, god rest his soul) had dreams of opeaning a performance shop we where coming up with names to call it, piston-perrfection was the one we decided on at the time but our second coice was petrolfix.

Petrolfix itself came about as a we both where driven by cars. all ways watching motor sport, ralling cars reading magazines, unless it had a motor i'm not interested. I have been a petrolhead all my life and as i get older the addiction gets worse. The same way a drug addict needs a fix I need a fix for my thurst for petrol powerd machines

(just like my signiture reads)

Helloooo Springfield

My name is Mister E

It comes from the Band the Eels the lead singer calls himself MR. E and I like the band so I blantantly stole His name.

I also like how when you say it quickly its like Mystery....at least it does in my mind. I'm not going to sit here at my desk at work and say mystery over and over again.

I dont think i should mention how i got mine or what it means but i got it a few years ago :)

I am apparently wild and cat is um..................... :rofl: well use your imaginations and it will come to you :D

Use that nick in everything i do and am even going to get the plates for the stag with that :P

That is the best reply in this thread thus far. :D

Xmetal is something i've been using now since 1997, It was an object of my desires to start with but I grew to use it on everything I do, it's even my business name now for my photography. :) (events, weddings, automotive) *shameless plug* :P

My nickname is actually my nickname my mates gave me since year 12. The Big is because i'm tall. The Dirty part of my nickname is from playing video games (was always the one with sneaky move or shot on someone) and Jase is my name. The nickname has stuck for a long time

There you have it

Well, the day I was born, the moon was in its 3rd phase, and Jupiter was aligned with Mercury. It was exactly 17 weeks since the last Solar eclipse, and a white dove had been seen overhead for the three days prior to that of my birth....

I was always known for being blatantly obvious. Still am. AlthougI go as Mickeyb on most other sites.

Man, am I boring...

    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
    • I only recently purchased the vehicle, it came with the flex setup but the current tune is e85 only, which is why im wanting to get the tune redone to enable a mixture.  First i need to get the exhaust redone tho. I was thinking of getting a varex muffler but it sems they dont fit well in the 33 (hang low because of the valve mechanism which sticks out on top) and generally dont sound good. So that leaves me with redoing the entire exhaust (more resonators and mufflers) so its not a menace when i come and go from home, and then have the aes dump valve somewhere along the line to really open it up. I was thinking of having it before the cat but after seeing how insanely loud it will be (on a vl turbo) im thinking of putting it more towards the rear of the car, after one of the resonators. 
    • At this point I'm just 'hoping' it's the turbo seals. I did speak to someone who said it's normal for these turbos to have a bit of axial play? Not gonna lie I've never checked a turbo for axial play before but you could hear it tapping a bit as I moved it back and forth. Surely that's too much? My theory is (could be completely wrong), bad axial play, worn bearings, bad seals, oil into dump/compressor side, burns in exhaust = blue smoke. On a timing belt related note, my crank pulley was missing that front plate that sits in front of the timing belt. It's that metal round plate. It did have the rear one, and the woodruff keys are in the crank which was nice. Can anyone confirm if the NEO det engine has a front plate, im sure it would to protect the front of the timing belt or something. Water pumps...the pump I got was an NPW (yes grill me if I should've got a genuine one lol). It has a smooth mating surface, kit came with a pretty pathetic looking paper gasket. Do I need to use any RTV or just trust the gasket will work because its a smooth mating surface? Cheers legends have a good Easter break!
    • Cheers man, I thought the same.   Bit of an update on it all. It was definitely blue smoke, not grey after all. It didn't really smell oily but it was blue after all. Also puffing just the smallest amount on idle with no throttle.   I ended up pulling the intake and exhaust off and there was around 3mm of axial play on the turbo shaft. So I figured we'll that's buggered and sent it off to get hi-flowed at hypergear. Haven't got it back yet.   I haven't compression tested it yet. Had a look in the cylinder and cylinder 1 spark plug, looked a bit sooty but not oily. Then I've just started doing my timing belt because it's age is unknown.
