well they gave the cheapest quote, and they are normally helpful over the phone..... but anyway. Bottom line is, they owe me 2 months insurance. I spose I'll have to wait till monday to see what they say.

Ok, I've got a bit of a problem. I changed my flux policy over to the new daily a while ago. I failed to notice that they'd emailed me an updated limited mileage form for me to complete and send back. I eventually got round to sending it back on friday at 12 noon. I received an email to the...

I've now asked two people called "chris" on MSN what colour they are painting their car...... neither of them were you.......fail To prevent this happening again please hurry the fark up and tell.

rear scoops unecessary but otherwise very nice.

depending on how much oil you lost the big ends could've had it, but it sounds like you caught it soon enough. Defo new sump i'd say. Welding cast ally is a bit pikey eh?

Re: Mk1 F4R'd Track Car Project [2010 Winter Rebuild] prefer the subframe MK2 btw, better this time around.

Re: Mk1 F4R'd Track Car Project [2010 Winter Rebuild] does the engine use oil then? is it coming out the sump seal-line?

Ktec might do the same thing cheaper

doesent sound serious but DONT take out the spark plugs as you'll just get water in the bores that'll run down into your oil and won't be fun. remove the HT leads and have a look for water and dry it out as best you can.

flux are awesome. never ever beaten for me. I think they are cheaper for under 25s edit: oh.....and I left out the fact that I was a CS member when insuring my 172. Maybe we are prone to crashing 172s!

Speak to think automotive and get a remote filter head from them. Simples.

so it's a 1.2? You've given it a soak with a hose pipe? Pics vids required.

potential there.

be more descriptive.

very nice. what happens when a new divx codec comes out? Are they ever going to offer updates or would you have to buy another?

Supras are a wierd one for me. I've never known anything quite so tuneable or well engineered that just does not appeal to me at all. Liking that NSX

No, I reckon most people in your situation would fit a nasty 182 rep exhuast. Nice work though. Like the thought.

ssshhhh Just listen Fm5k1ntJNBU I'm not a fan of the car, but THAT is an engine making a noise.

boras are nice and your heading the right way with it, but the wheels make the baby jesus cry.

so why the name lippy? Are you h'actually spanish?

It was a deal done by GDI a while back

Some lumpy idle issues can be solved by replacing the lambda sensor. Really, the only explanation for more noise from the exhuast is a blowing exhaust. Best of luck

this is something Ktec had in 'development' iirc. Wonder if that's their ebay account

very nicely done.

172 Phase 1 phase 2? MAP sensor (on the side of the plenum) is not a bad suggestion. Fred says they are an identical part to the 1.2s so get yourself down the scrappys RS clios don't do EGR (the MK2s anyways). Sounds a little extreme to be a lambda sensor but could be worth a try. perhaps a...

Most of the cars that come up down on power on this forum are as a result of a bad cambelt change.

What's an NSX like to drive? They live up to all the hype? Is the V6 the pinacle of Vtecness?

OMG want that 190E So bad. You could keep 2 E30 M3s for that 190E

Re: Mk1 F4R'd Track Car Project [2010 Winter Rebuild] Wow, thats annoying! Well done for getting a fresh subframe though, it's definitely the right choice. The subframes are galvanised. You can get round it by giving them a bloody good surface grind before you start , but if you start hitting...

cylinders get slightly hotter as they go further from the cambelt due to the direction of coolant flow. I've read somewhere that aligning spark plug electrodes at the correct angle when you tighten them can give you some small but worthwhile efficiency gains.
