    Rs tuner ,launch control.

    I've got an old RST with the 98RON map and I don't have launch control, if I dump the clutch at 4k rpm it just lights up the tyres.

    Brembo HC discs and pads

    I've got them, they stop the car just as well as oem and G172 is a great trader with very quick delivery.

    Alternator cable snapped.

    My soul's died, this car's killed it. The connector doesn't fit so i'm going to have to modify it, I don't have a nut that fits the 8mm bolt, at least I think it's 8mm, and the thread's mangled so it'll probably cross thread as soon as I try doing the nut up. Also my battery charger no longer...

    FLOL!!!! I've often though, I can never sell this this car because everyone knows how f*cked it is.

    Alternator cable snapped.

    Cheers mate but i'm going to give it a go, I like the feeling of fixing my own car, however if you see me pulling up at yours you know I failed.

    Alternator cable snapped.

    I'm in Coventry mate. I might take the fuel rail guard of to give me more room, I don't want to start fiddling with more wires, it's just something else i'll probably screw up. lol Don't wory about posting a nut out, i'll get one from somewhere tomorrow when i'm out and about, cheers for the...

    Alternator cable snapped.

    I'm sure I can find a 13mm from somewhere, if not Homebase is just up the road. I know what'll happen, i'll get it all sorted, jump start the car, stick the multimeter on the battery, and discover it's still not charging and I need a new alternator. :(

    Alternator cable snapped.

    Well seeing as i'm not a mechanic or an electrician, I think i'm doing well to find out what I need and how to fix it.
  22. DaveDreads

    Alternator cable snapped.

    I've been given one that looks exactly like that, but it's got a 10mm hole instead of an 8mm hole, but he said it can handle 200 amps, so it should be fine.

    Alternator cable snapped.

    Ok, the sparky came round, had a look and now i've got the correct connector, I just need to find a 13mm nut now, then I can finally find out if it was the alternator connector, or if I actually need a new alternator.
  24. DaveDreads

    Alternator cable snapped.

    Cheers lads, I should be able to get it sorted now, despite my idiocy.
  25. DaveDreads

    Alternator cable snapped.

    Yep, i've been in loads of places looking at those today. :dapprove: Anyone know how much load it needs to be able to handle, as in how much juice goes from the alternator to the battery?
  26. DaveDreads

    Alternator cable snapped.

    I've just measured the hole, it's 8mm. So i've been running round all day asking for the wrong f*cking thing!!!!! :mad: It can wait until tomorrow now.

    Alternator cable snapped.

    F*ck knows, I hate the world!!! I've got an electrician coming over later, hopefully he'll sort it for me, I was only going by what people had told me.

    Alternator cable snapped.

    Right, no one anywhere sells 13mm heavy duty O ring connectors, I even rang an electrical wholesalers and they said they couldn't even order one. How the f*ck can it be so hard to get a connector that costs a quid?

    Sounds good to me. :approve:

    Alternator cable snapped.

    I don't know what the f*ck you're talking about lol. I was just going to jam it on and crush f*ck out of it, it honestly can't be that f*cking hard to mangle a connector onto a wire and make it work?
