    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    the crank sensor was disturbed when the box was rebuilt, it just needs the clearance adjusting. it worked perfectly until it was unbolted

    Waterpump Brands

    Genuine renault, or Motrio (renault budget brand), but if you get motrio, make sure it's got the metal impellar, as they do occasionally turn up with plastic ones. Motrio has the bonus of being cheaper, but you get the same renault warranty

    Google Nexus 5

    I thought that. I can't believe the difference in speed! I have one niggle, only 2 home screens......I want 5 without having to install a launcher like Nova. I've had the option of upto 7 homescreens since I had my HTC desire, and I've no wish to lose them.

    Just had a new clutch fitted £200 good price?

    I'd have said a bit over £300 if a Decent clutch was used. For that price I'd be a bit worried they've used a transmech which are poop

    Best injectors ipw162 vs Megane blues

    They're fine if you get new ones. Might not last 100k but should manage 60k easy. Pico are hardly exemplary, I've changed 5 182 injectors in the last month. Failures happen on anything.

    The infamous 197 flat spot

    it's a pig to get rid of. it's basically lean on acceleration, but not on static load (a bi-product of emissions regulations, IMO at least) The trouble with this is, if you add fuel at static points, the lambda sensor trims it out, and you end up with long term trim values outside spec, so the...

    Difference between itb trumpet sizes

    finding it quite funny that everyone is quoting optimal trumpet lengths, but ignoring the fact all these brands of ITBs are different so the total length is different. a jenvey SF kit is sold with 90s becuase they work well with standard cams, thats what the kit was designed to be used with. a...

    Where Best To Buy A Cat For 182

    standard 182 cat is basically 2 sport cats back to back in one housing. not a lot of point changing it if you have a good standard one available

    Limit of standard rods

    I won't go over 7650 on standard rods. With supercharging, you tend to rev a bit less than high comp N/A anyway. I'd want to use something decent like Catcams rods and rev around 7800 with the spec you're suggesting (although the cams are too mild for my liking and you'll be wasting the...

    Silicone coolant hose kits

    they're better than Forge which are crap, and leak all over the shop. I'd happily supply Venair, but i'll never sell forge hoses again. SFS are good, samco are ok, but you're paying for a name to a big degree

    Google Nexus 5

    Ordered at about 6.15 last night. Probably didn't need to upgrade form the 4 to be honest, but I want it. Anyone worrying about it being LG, don't, my 4 has been excellent, it really makes a difference not having manufacturer skins on Android, way way smoother and just better, I liked sense on...

    Bosch Super 4s

    I've seen loads of issues with denso plugs over the years, always fixed with a set of NGKs (and thats loads of different cars and engines). No better than super4s IMO

    Where do I buy 120mm trumpets from?

    can't stand the ecu software. Dave's a decent guy though. Told him straight that the software was aweful while stood in his dyno room, while he was mapping a williams I took there as it had an emerald fitted previously. same car we tested some of his adjustable trumpets on

    172 Cup Turbo

    but there should never be any contact between the bearing and the crank journal, always an oil film. if there's contact and it picks up enough to have spun un-tagged bearings, it's still going to score the crank so you're no better off.

    Jenvey 45's and 438 cams

    use the longest induction length you can. You'll push the power and torque band down the revs nicely. I never enjoyed taking mine past 6.5k really

    Redex - Pre MOT to help lower emissions?

    not if it's sucking air in and making the result look lean, it can look like a leak, thats the main failure on cars with big exhausts. wet rag up one pipe and you've got a real reading

    172 Cup Turbo

    absolutely agree. tags will be gone in a second, the engine will have lasted about 3 revolutions longer

    K4M Inlet Manifold is the Devil!

    leave the TB in place, remove the plenum first. You can then get to everything with relative ease and better access

    Redex - Pre MOT to help lower emissions?

    what exhaust. if it's aftermarket, it will make a big difference which tailpipe they put the probe in depending on the design
