Firstly I have nothing to sell, but was just thinking of a way to cure the rattle, again i think very little is to gained in bhp from a aftermarket pipe but if you can get a lifetime warrenty and no big pipe out the back then good, all I was thinking of was some sort of group buy, as it seems...
Now thats got your attention! Ive just beeen quoted £183 to have the centre section replaced, now to all accounts this will fail again, so who has a shafted centre section and would like a new after market job that does not have the big drain pipe under the rear bumper and is not any noiser than...
Tight bends means less airflow, as do long pipes, it s very hit and miss, keep trying your ideas till something works, but expect about 3-4 bhp max if you can get more, give up your day job!
I have just looked out the window at my motor, watching the sun light reflect of all the curves, the thing is the car is covered in at least 1mm of sand all over, and from inside you can hardly see out! its not been cleaned for 6 weeks, my old red car looked dirty the next day after washing, but...
Sounds like the gas has decanted, so it will need refilling, dont take it to a dealer, look in yellow pages for a mobile AC service, the dealers use these and then charge you an extra £50 on top.
I have some of your many spins taken from the pits, I will get them uploaded as soon as I get the camcorder out the car, when i remember where i parked it
On friday at Bedford, a number of us were drawn to a Cup with the number plate coverd in duct tape, before being taken onto the track. I was talking to someone about trackdays and was told to cover my number plate as insurance companies often check photos from track days to make sure no claims...
Indicated 160mph on the speedo.
It would not go any quicker than that. If it did Id be bouncing off the limiter.
The car was 3 up as well.
I was surprised at how quick it actually got there as well. Hitting VTEC in 6th is a strange feeling.
As I said this was all private roads as well.
It is the same straight, mind you a few cars got broken that day, so i think that people took things easy except me and the guy in the CTR, good fun, strange how those washer jets pop out for no reason, but stay in when you use a CTR in front as a brake
The last track day a Bedford i went to had a Chipped RS the guy said he was getting about 135Mph on the straight, until i pointed out that the 300Bhp STI from Autocar we got a go in would only hit 128Mph, he seemed rather quite after that.
I always fit mine to the rear middle head rest with a belt and a bit of plastic to stop it jumping, gives you a better aspect of the track and driver
Jas are you going on the 27th? we could have a multi camera car Cliosport parade lap!
I had the before and after run when the chip was fitted, 174 before 184.7 after i Would like to take it to BBs rollers as most people here have been on them as Im not sure it sould be a bit more then again a few BHP makes no difference
Now thats srange as my mate had a GPS with him the other day, and my results were very accurate, 100mph was 100mph on the GPS, I dont know a lot about GPS but it gives the same reading as the speedo, maybe there both out!
I tried a full tank Shell U/L on the rollers, then 3 weeks later under the same conditions Shell Optimax, the difference on the rollers, Sod all, no differnce in torque or Bhp. cant understand it but was plain to see.
