Removing fuel rail guard will make it easier, iirc 2 deep 13mm sockets.

Remove front grile ,then take slam panel off, 4 bolts on top 2 down infront of radiator(these 2 only need loosening) and the 2 top rad mounts, then it will lift out. Then drain rad, remove all hoses, remove bottom mounts, disconnect fan and away you go.

Cheers guys will get some jubilee clips. Bolts wise, when fitting the jenveys do you just use the original plenum bolts to attach the itb mani to the head? Or will I need new bolts for that also? Carbonraider - not sure where you are based but I know rstuning in Leeds can map gen90, that's...

Hi again guys, was gonna start a new thread but might aswell just post it here. I have 2 quick questions I could do with answering :) 1) Im going to try fit my small rad this weekend and was just wondering and kinda hoping that all the standard pipes etc will fit and connect straight to...

I would have to agree with chip. Sounds very much like o/s wheel bearing not much else it could be from the symptoms. I've had screwed bearings without play in them before. I had one so bad before it would statically charge the car and shock you when getting out and closing the door lol.

I run on 15" rota slipstreams, not the nicest looking wheels but at a tad over 5kg each well worth it! Could never drive a clio on 16s again would feel wrong. The acceleration and handling improvement they give you is night and day. Throw a arb in the mix and you will have a very nice handling...

Lightweight 15'' wheels are the best bang for your buck closely followed by white line anti roll bar imo, both transform the car(best 2 mods I've done hands down). If its power gains you want get cams, itb's or forced induction. I'd be very surprised if you noticed the difference after matching...

Does the mongoose have a centre silencer? If not the drone will more than likely be very prominent with a decat, will sound nice at high rpm tho :D Another thing to consider is do you use the car at unsocialble hours? I.e very early mornings or after 11 at night? Im forever getting complaints...

Ok maybe not a perfect match but hardly worth doing? Questionable if its even worth doing a non rs set imo, money would be better off spent elsewhere for the gains you will see.

Check first to see if you have the rs stamped lower inlet if so don't bother as they matched from the factory. Remove fuel rail guard(2 x 13 mm I think could be 10mm tho lol) and see if it has rs on it.

Your sports cat will become a decat and a fucked one at that lol.

Concours that.

Pokemon red on gameboy! Must of completed it like 5 times :o lol

Sounds like a fooked thermostat, pretty cheap and easy to change though. The 182 mani is better in the low range but you should have a little better 5k kick.

What the f**k was the guy in the picasso playing at? Think he realised he only got a little tap from the bm and wouldn't really be able to make much of a compensation claim so he decided to plough your wall? very unfortunate your car happened to be where 2 idiots met :( bm should of been going...

If your gonna do itbs might as well do it right! Lose the slam panel, no point spending all that money and not getting the full potential out of them.

Will it bump start? Or start with jump cables?

We need to do a north Yorkshire moores meet after this one, the roads are second to none imo. There is so much choice of epic roads and lots of cool stopping/photo points etc. I know every road off by heart could take us on a awesome drive main problem would be not been able to do them all lol...

Give all connections a wiggle. A trick I used to use on my 106gti that had a faulty crank sensor was to put car in gear then give it a few rocks back and forth used to start everyone after that. worth a try if nothing else. Can't imagine its the plugs but worth a check just whip them out 1 by 1...

Hi mate is the knock from front left? id put cash on it been bottom ball joint or trackrod end. As for limp mode, couldn't tell you mate get it plugged in for a diagnosis.

It actually says in the manual about that hook but I still just hold them tbh.

115k and about to be itb :D

Ha fair enough man I thought you could get the 2.2 in UK, my bad lol. I did enjoy the times I borrowed my mates on and off for 6 months while he was abroad but I owned a pulsar at the time so the bottom end just felt incredibly flat compared to boost lol. as for the secret compartment you may...

Good call on the ap2 mate the ap1s are flat as a fart off vtec I swear its like been in a 1 litre plus 9k rpm is pointless you find yourself off the tec to often coming out of bends/roundabouts unless you are forever dropping a cog which can get very old when you just wanna get home after...

Failing that send me a pm I got a radio/cd with code for sale

It would work out cheaper 2nd hand if you get a old style one but your right about the new style ones by the time you bought the map etc would be about the same. Another option would be to maybe see if a member local to you would be willing to lend you it to map your car providing you buy 2...

Hi mate, if you only want it for the ron98 map and diagnostics then the entry level spec is all you need. I believe you can only buy the new style one from fastchips though so i'd keep an eye in the market place for a 2nd hand old style one, then buy a license and map from henk.

You could get a portable heater on a extension cord and warm the engine bay? just an idea.

I'm looking to sell a very high spec gaming pc if your interested? Send me a pm if you are. Will play all the best games on top settings. Will need to speak to my brother to get exact spec as hes the pc man of the family. Only things i know its 8gb kingston hyper ram / i5 quadcore processor /...

Lol yeah it is actually! how you know?
