LOL post your time Rhys - I did mine in a howling gale with a FULL tank of fuel - my times could have been quicker - one run was up hill LOL but I dont fancy being flamed so I used it in the averages:D So lets see them then...
Thats speedo times for the 0-100 remember - the 0-105 would be a more true 0-100 - thats why I timed both! ;)
My true 0-100 for that night is probably around 17.33 secs but I dont have a GPS of my actuall 100 mark on the speedo so cant say for sure!
& yes the car is std (cat back exhaust is...
Yeah I know - I want the disclaimer as my sig to save me typing it:)
My other Video times were:
30-70 6.18 secs
35-75 6.54 secs
0-100 16.25 secs
0-105 17.78 secs
The 0-100s were runined a bit by one of the 3 runs hitting a large hill and sturggling from 90-100 - it took 18.61 secs...
Dunno m8 - try the previous owner or just colour match it. The proper Williams code means nothing to paint people in this country - its an Italian code I think.
Well did some vids last night but cant post the as my PC dies when I try and use them. I have timed the videos and did a few AP22 runs too on the way home with Rhyss settings for a comparason. I reckon my speedo is 5mph out maybe 4.
Video:
0-60 6.02 secs (speedo time)
0-65 7.05 secs...
Was a close one tonight on the way home!! I choose the wrong lane (turned out to be the wright lane) to get on to the Dual Carrageway and got stuck behind some slow old Granny - there was some Bloke beside on the inside lane in a Red BMW (revving)he tooks of across the round-a-bout and onto the...
Well on std settings im getting 0-60 in 8.5 secs:oops: but on video im am very similar to KDF_s run though most of his 0-100.I need a digital recording so I can post it up here!!
Also tested my car against my sisters RS1800 (0-60 8.3, 0-100 23secs) and was a lot faster to 60 and 100mph- so my...
Not bad but where are the 0-100s?;)
Hoes does you AP22 correspond with you speedo Rhys? does it change to 60mph on the AP22 as you pass over real 60mph on you speedo - or does it take a few seconds to catch up? On std settings I have to do 70mph on my speedo (about 65/66 real) to register 60...
It was about 80 deg. I will try all again tommorrow just to check.
I had noticed that it had used a fair bit of oil in the first month I owned it ,but its only now that i am keeping an eye on it - I will just have to wait to see how much.
Well here are my findings
0W-40 Castrol RS
Oil Full
Idles at 900rpm - Oil Pressure about :11/2 bar
Revs at 3500rpm - Oil Pressure about :3 Bar
Have to say lifted the bonnets and listened to it close up and it just more depressed - reminds me of my Sisters old J reg 1.3 fiesta:(
Never checked the oil pressure ben! I have noticed that the Oil Pressure hits the top when I drive for the first 5 minutes then seems to be OK i think. Never noticed that until a week ago but asumed that was normal!! I will keep an eye on it tommorrow!
As for Tick over Ill come back on that...
flykai - I travelled 400 miles (800 round) for my last car and 600 (1200 round) miles for the one before that! ;)
Im in Inverness - rather than buy a dodgy car close to me I usally travel the country! some wasted journeys tho - that you still feel compelled to buy the car because of the...
Interested as Im going to get mine done when the new Dastek UK retail premises opens up in Scotland in July
Where about is that going to be Flying Scotsman?
After being out for a run last night I thought id hit some glass - while checking the tyres I noticed the engine sounding "tappety"! You know like those old Ford CVHs!! Is this normal for a 2 ltr Renault engine with 28k?
