It's not you fuckwit , I am not colour blind. The paint on it now is white purple, with glitter clear coat, not original, the receipts are for a custom colour.
Still don't know if chris has choose what colour to do it lol
Yupp v6 as standard. f**king sounds insaine when revved on choke :evil:
Rwd 4speed. Quicker than an rs to 60mph. No joke.
Chris's one is purple with a white roof mate
Didn't know it was up there when you took the mondy?
Engines not being stripped unfortunately. It's all original engine so the guy don't want it touching.
I'll ask him when he's back from his hols. Sure he won't mind. Aslong as his tools go back in the right draws haha
Tools and easy start in my boot ;), if it don't start I'll get any to fetch it. Btw the jag runs.... Sort of lol, it ran off on the ram last week , slipped timing chain... Ouch
Yeah, new recon engine, stage 2 clutch, new alternator.
Came to 1k. And Im fitting it with my mate who knows f**k all about engines FLOL.
Might have to have that DCI 100 of you next year, I have a few plans to make something crazy :D
LOL. I'm not talking. Crime . More like the little fucker has eaten my pocket again on a MASSIVE part. Not aloud to touch it apparently. Bonnet shut and locked from me haha
might aswell get a OE one then. will get the upper mounts done aswell. hopefully it will stop the emgine and box twisting ( swinging back badly )under load
Use to bad engine vibrations lol, Iv been driving around with a slowly destroying its self engine for a while.
Im thinking in terms of engine swing when accelerating, the fubard mount is just smashing my turbo against the firewall :(
Lower gearbox mount it's fubard on the DCI, question is , shall I poly bush it or just change for another auto parts one?
Im in the mind of ' it's a diesel, nothing special under the good that needs it tbh '
Would I benefit from a poly used mount?
Opinions please?
yeah, iv done everything ( almost ) on my engine. apart from an air filter, i just have a standard one with a new re-routed air feed for the box.
i thought the 182's is/was cheaper to insure ?:S tbh , you've got a cracking base to work with, bit of time and it'll be all shiney shiney again :)
yeah, 130 bhp and the injectors have ran out of injector cycles something or other. can change them to vag injectors but need the head machining, which is expensive lol.
plans are to get this running properly again and then go find a flame red ph2 172 :)
was mapped to deaths door, 128bhp. had to have renault reset the ecu to stock as i bought new injectors and it wouldnt run.
will get it mapped again eventually, got a manual boost controller atm to stop it going to much over standard boost figures.
Should just come out if they're shagged tbh.
Mine gave up and made the engine bounce rediculas.
Managed to take the bushes out of mine with a socket and hammer ( big side ) other side just fell out
Haha maybe they last a lot longer when not being tunned and ragged to within an inch of its life. Hybrid turbo set up aswell, it's full on overBoosting lol
