    2.3k engine still seems tight

    Its not the first time Ive heard that story and I wouldnt be surprised at all. Its an easy way to prevent warranty claims etc, by restricting the engines performance while on low mileage. At each service they take out another block on the ECU until by the time you get out of warranty the ECU...

    a small quiz for a sunday night...

    OK OK I was hoping youd admit defeat and let me have that one for free Joe. Can you give me the figures in metric, its the 21st century now mate, and I dont wanna lost accuracy having to convert imperial to metric for the techy calculations!

    Thanks to everyone at Donny South

    Yeah same message from me, big thanks to everyone who turned out for the club, you really did us proud, and we defintely did have the best stand with the most cars - you could tell by the amount of models that kept wandering over! A brilliant weekend and definitely thanks to John (and Clare)...

    Gearing question

    Well the more powerful engine means you will reach the end of each gear quicker, simple as that. But why transplant a 1.6 when you could go for something much bigger?

    How would a turbo actually benefit a valver.........

    Well BB Tuning are putting together 2 16v demo cars at the moment. One low pressure turbo and one high pressure with an engine rebuild. The low pressure one is gonna be up to 9psi boost I think, target 190bhp or thereabouts. The extra torque will be there whenever the car is on boost.

    2ltr 16v Conversion

    2.0 Megane bottom end will go straight onto the 1.8 head I think, with good results.

    White wheels

    Well mine are Hyper Black and they look the nuts. But white is a perennial favourite for the rally sl*g look. Just a pig to clean. Those wheels pictured are far too small though!

    gearbox rebuilder.

    Why bother? I had the same trouble, lost all the bearings into the gearbox. 19 found, one missing presumably chewed up. Just replaced the whole box with a Williams one for £500.

    Well if you changed the alternator now youre in the big boys league. Congratulations!

    Yeah I can see your dirty hand round the side there. There wasnt much to her round the waist though thats for sure. How many pics did we get of her Jas? Im waiting for the one of that young lady stroking my rocker cover mate. Was that Helen, the one who got my number? Hope she doesnt ring up...

    Big thanks to Olly, James and tony

    I missed all the action, hung around for a couple of minutes to say my goodbyes but then got stuck behind a trailer on the way out to the M11!

    Willy vs Z3 2.8

    hehe thats more like it slayer. Yeah youre spot on about one thing, Essex is definitely Top Gun country. Im Maverick and that makes you Goose. Actually on second thoughts maybe Ill be Iceman... 328s are common round my hunting grounds and theyre easy pickings. 330s are a good race. The Z3 3.0...

    Errr well Im not that big apart from around the middle, 510" tall. But after all the lovely ladies we say this weekend it made a refreshing change to see a quality model who wasnt 6 ft tall with her arse hanging out and bloody great high heels on! And believe me we saw plenty of them. Rob J...

    Williams & 16V differences

    well itd be a Willy every time for me if I hadnt already spent so much on my valver. To my mind theres no competition, 2.0 power is the way to go, ok the figures may not say much but the point is that you really have to wring out a 16v to get it flying, a Willy is more leisurely and when you...

    1.2’s and hills...

    Well mine was a Fiesta 1.0 Popular. Headrests, a glove box, a factory-fit stereo and a rear demister or wiper were, sadly, not even standard. You had to get the Popular Plus for the luxury of a demister. But I swear that was the toughest little car I ever had and did lovely jumps over hump back...
