does anyone know how much a C10 1969 onwards skyline would be worth(like the red one in post #1565)? and how you'd go about importing one?

yes, the shorter is on the left, so that twists less. So the left wheel puts power down fractionally before the right, causing torque steer to the right.

HA! found here These wheels are going on that old starlet above. Never seen such a good little tyre stretching blog. It's a big old stretch lol!

frankly, You have no idea at all what you are talking about. This is a 4 stroke engine.

reckon he means spark plug. :S

1*2s have nearly enough power for torque steer to become a problem. On a lumpy road surface in 2nd you will certinally have to hang on a bit. Better designed cars have equal length driveshafts, Not the clio :roll: As you've identified, you need the same tyres on each axle and get the tracking done.

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project as far as i know that seal is not an issue at all. Probably more to prevent rattle than anything.

valver shocks on willy track provide about 3 deg of negative camber. Serious fun times. big spending on tyres.

who voted yes? fess up

partly true. There is a specific length of trumpet for every engine that will provide maximum torque. 106 gti boys have been known to buy LHD wiper setups and cut through the bulkhead to get the correct length trumpets on.

scrubs up well. Like that car. Very nice

ultraVNC works for me.

on the custom manifold above, have you plugged the holes for the injectors? Nice job btw, did you have it RR'd?

^knows it^

no he's not. He's charging us (students) interest on money he stole from us to the tune of about £50 a month. Anyways, about the bodies. I would REALLY like to see someone use bike bodies. I have heard of 2 or 3 companies that do custom manifolds for setups exactly like this at reasonable...

yes it might be something to do with the exhaust. We'll never know unless you run it with the bonnet open and find out where the noise is coming from. If it's blowing from the exhaust, you'll be able to feel it blowing as soon as you get your hand near it. is a video a possibility?

=MAX(A1:A10) =MIN(A1:A10) simple as that mate

lovely stuff. And what a rev limit! What made you go for the corsa in particular? just working with what you had or anything special?

man is an all time great

ever checked the torque they make?? bike engines in cars are not all that unless the car is really (and i mean really) light. would need to be stipped to fcuk tbh this thread has got a lil out of hand now..... He was wondering if a clio F4R would slot in on original mounting points and people...

what engine is it? Surely if you run it with the bonnet open it will take anyone seconds to locate the source if the noise is that loud.

but without fully sensing the extra air (TPS is still at minimum). So would probably be lean

unless the whole running of the car is much louder (all the time not just on pops and bangs) then it's not going to be a hole/gap in the exhaust. Also a hole in the exhaust will get much louder if you apply any throttle. If the inlet manifold is cracked, you might be able to hear it hissing. it...

this is not a project. wrong section. good luck with your cage. Measure your car?

does it have the newer gearbox with the longer 6th gear?

The themostat is purely a mechanical device, no electronics there. It just opens and sends fluid to the rad if the engine needs cooling. Your fan issues. Firstly, try unplugging the rad coolant temp sensor. see if it turns the fan off. If it does, theres your problem, replace that. more likely...

fair enough. Are you really going to use that intercooler (and it is an intercooler not a charge cooler) Pretty sure you could pick up something better dead cheap.

so you've done what then? put a 1.4 bottom end on the 1.4 16v head? I think your going to need to do it properly. Go to a proper rolling road and get a proper map. What year is the car?

mega expensive pants down job if you give it to a garage.

are you totally insane. Those cars are so ugly it's un real, leave the engine in the clio. Remember. You can't polish a turd
