Nice. I found a full set of R888's for £470. Think that's my xmas present to myself sorted. I can see the argument for RSR's but I really think it'd be good to get mine on 888's around cadwell again in the new year to see what it's like with grippy rubber lol

I think you're mistaking people not liking the plate itself with not liking the stupid 90's font, border and subaru logo on it ;)

There might be a set of jenveys with 120mm trumpets, carbon backbox and pipercross filter up for sale in the next few months. I'm still craving boost lol Just need to work out if it's worth the money ;)

I think you meant "My two dream cars" - unless you've not actually touched a real woman Take the plates off the P1 - it makes the best scooby ever made look like a chav car like all the other scoobies

If you want to be double sure - take the fuel rail shield off and swap the plugs on 3 and 4 around - if it suddenly starts fuelling on different cylinders then it could be an ecu/wiring fault. But it's more likely to be dodgy injectors I suspect

Yup - my "proper" ones have 120mm trumpets on and had a good 10-15mm of space between them and the bonnet. I cut the bonnet skin out anyway as the more space the better IMO

I completely missed this game until a mate told me about it yesterday It looks a lot like mechwarrior meets tribes (for the older pc gamers amongst us) - and they were 2 of my favourite games of all time - so I'm pretty excited!!

Man tyres!! How much did they end up setting you back mate?

Yeah it is a Jenvey kit but it's a direct-to-head kit rather than the individual SF bodies with a manifold. I'm not really sure if it makes much difference to performance but if you want the metal fuel rail and etc... you could buy direct from jenvey...

The Ktec and the Jenvey standard kit uses 90mm trumpets. You could ring K-Tec and see if they can supply it with 120's instead but I suspect they buy the kit from Jenvey so wouldn't want to split it. Direct from Jenvey they'd probably spec it however you want but it won't be cheap brand new.

That BMW sounds insane, it's a shame it killed him :(

Nah mine was a 2nd hand bodged together kit so no idea what they used to sell with them direct from Jenvey. Maybe the Jenvey sausage filter which is pretty horrid too True true, it's just weird how they sell them very short as standard. They do the same thing with the 106/saxo kit too

Yeah mine came with some s**t like that - it had actually fallen apart and chunks of it were missing (presumably eaten by the old engine LOL)

Yeah they are the longest you can fit in the space so compromise the performance the least out of the options. LOL filter of death - I thought you got that with both the SF and the DTH kit?

They work better. I know total induction length matters - which is why I said the length of the manifold, bodies and trumpets ideally would be close to the original length. The smaller trumpets I was referring to was the AT's which are stupidly short The mickey mouse Ktec kit is still...

Nah they're used on Honda's too and they seize even worse than the french ones Honda's piss me off too because they use weird bolt sizes, 7 and 9mm instead of 8 and 10mm's - drives me nuts working on them

Really? So the overall length was found to "work well with standard cams"? It had nothing to do with hitting the bonnet if you went longer? Weird as hell that cos my 120's work just as well with standard cams ;)

VW/Audi's don't either - as the wheel studs stop the disc from falling off while working on the brakes.

They're utterly useless. Snap on nearly all cars. Just had to drill a full set out on a DC2 integra and that has studs as standard. God knows why they use them

As Chip says The length of the trumpets sold with the Clio kits (usually 90mm but some sell 60mm!) are dictated by the clearance under the bonnet rather than what's optimal for the engine. Ideally you'd want a total inlet length (trumpet, body and manifold) close to the length of the...

Good god - 307 hdi. You'll be lucky to make it through winter without the wiring melting and the flywheel shattering lol

I store mine in a garage every winter, in fact it only moves 5 or 6 times a year Leave handbrake off as they seize pretty easy, I'd also at least roll it back and forth every month to rotate the tyres and make sure the brakes haven't seized. I like to start mine up each month too and just...

Why does someone in a silver road car nearly drive into him at the start? lol That's exactly what my car sounded like when I first fitted the bodies. The guy who had them on his 182 before me had had a "pop and bang" map put on the omex - every time you lifted off above 4k it put an...

Hahaha I love watching him on track purely because it's 100% maximum attack. I spent the year previous with a few BTCC teams and there are a few drivers that could be so much quicker if they had that attitude. It makes a brilliant spectator sport

How much bloody money? Yeah it might have an £8k gearbox in it, but you could build the rest of the car for under £5k these days and the cup racers I've seen have been bent and straightened 20 times

Neither of those.. you need the 28mm 1.8

It's not a problem - the foam filter is coated with oil and the water just runs off You just need to clean the filter and re-oil as part of your yearly service

NO!! The 70D is better for what you're doing. The 18-135mm is completely different to the old hat 18-55's. Stick to your plan it's a setup you really really won't regret

The sigma 30mm 1.4 that I had was such a piece of s**t. It missed focus so often it was unuseable and when I sold it I lost a ton of money on it. Good for video but for photos it drove me nuts. Needed a ton of af correction dialled in to stop it under-focusing. I hate sigma lenses :( Bought a...

To be honest if you buy an entire engine for £150 from a guy on ebay who states he has no idea the condition of it. You pay cash and don't even bother turning it over or pulling the spark plugs out to check the pistons then you can't be helped. £150 is about 1/3rd what a running engine would...
