162lbft on a standard engine am i reading that correct? lol

seems to be a bit issue with the internet these days, instead of a decent in depth convo it turns into childish name calling lol!

hit the nail on the head

i just had to search for about 20 minutes to find this, i had it saved from when we had the exact same argument in about 2005 on here haha!

ive only briefly read though this but i cant understand how some people think the manifold is at fault when it works on some cars and not on others.... now unless the engineering tollerances are huge and one manifold is completely different to another (id bet £1000 on that not being the case!)...

my old workhorse Thinkpad T43 runs Windows 7 ultimate just as well as it ran its previous Windows XP pro, i do like how simple XP is to use, only because i spent years working with it daily and ive honestly never had a proper in depth play with win 7, i just turn it on, open IE9 and go on the...

a lot of the fun in a track car is the preping and mantinace though rather than renting. personally id go for a ph1 as your getting a lighter car, they are cheap to buy, already have 15" wheels for cheap track rubber, , cable throttle gives a better driving experiance and they have a better mid...

after years of stiff suspension running loads of different manufacturers of coils/springs/dampers i dont think any of them are as stiff as the cup suspension lol. on a smooth road its fine but throwing it down a backroad at serious pace you get thrown about far to much in car which takes your...
