maybe s/h rad then prob lots cheaper but better than ur high miler mine came out at 146k and was pretty fuked
cambelt shud be on its second change at 130k
browny water is rust u dont want rusty sh*te blockin ur cooling system up
i drove it round for a few days with the 17s on usually i have 16" speedline chronos on
it wasnt a nice drive didnt exactly handle well, u could get almost full lock if you went ded slow an didnt hit a big bump
wasnt as quick either but looked absolutely mint
heres another...
id buy a new rad think mine cost me about 100 quid from euro car parts and was lots better than the old one which mus hav been blocked
i also fitted a low temp fan switch an thermostat (from bb tuning) and did a flush
to get the plug out of ur rad ull prob have to take the rad off the car...

2 diff greys, one ph1 other ph2 think 1 was xerus grey or summat
3 reds one carmen red (mine) other darker flat red and naples
silver , monaco blue, 449 blue ,
pearlescant black few diff colour laquers

the olive bit goes on the downpipe jus sits over the lip, it probably makes a better seal than the flange and gasket thats on normally
wen i bought mine off mat it had the silenced magnex i found it much better with a straight thru pipe tho freed it up a lot on the top end
adi

i noticed that you gain an increase lower down in the revs but its definately better at high revs with the ind kit
ind kit better in cold wether too so im gonna stick with mine cos when ur givin it some when are u low down in the rev range
adi
u sure u didnt put diesel init lol
think id take the fuel hose off where it fits onto the fuel filter and stick a 12v supply straight onto the fuel pump to pump it out
adi
if u can get eye contact for a bit i.e on the same side of the road on a duel carridgeway or summat ur likely to get a nod or summat but in them scenarios its race on if rd clear hehe
u never get time to catch there eye really if there travelin in the opposite direction
adi
thats bullsh*t lol no way a car that heavy with 350 horses 100 of them from nos is runnin them times down the strip
its gonna need well over 500 for that i reckon
adi
if you drive i hard id say it probably wont last till you get the throttle bodies done id change it its defiantely worth doing with that milage
also think about getting an lsd bout 500 quid
adi
itll still cost you around 200 quid for fitting and mapping because they have ur car for a day for mapping
theyll jus load a blank map into it and start afresh
its needs the blank map before u fit it too
adi
yeh thats cos id borrowed a set of dials but from a ph 1 with orange needles from the breakers and thort id see if the needles come off easily and broke the one on the level gauge on my set
turned out it still didnt work with new dials so changed sensor but still needed a new set of dials to...
i hit a monkey, it was tryin to rip me fukin mirror off while his mate was stealing me rear number plate
dont think i hurt it altho was tryin quite hard there fast little fukers
adi
nope it doesnt when i bought mine off mat it had a silenced magnex on it
i fitted a straight thru hillpowerde-cat cos i wanted more noise an flames and it did make a diff to performance at the top of the rev range, a silenced de-cat is more restrictive
adi
i seen an advert in the trader once for a "stage 2" williams and apparantly it was 250bhp or summat like that
yeh course it is mate, stupid thing is sum1 will prob buy it an think its actually got 250bhp
adi
