Nah its not just metal! Thats my sh*te explaination - its a thin metal with some strange named plasticy material on it which is supposed to be heat resistant and soesnt conduct.
Right, i took a visit to my local auto spares shop and seen new induction kit thats just come over from america. Its a standard induction kit with a metal casing round it as a heat shield which just leaves one end open, if i was to close this end by connecting it to the original cold air feed...
Mate you hink thats bad! Ijust forked out £1200!!!! New Clutch, head gasget, head skimmed, full service, power streering sorted, water pump and power steering sorted. And a few other bits aswell!
Cheers for the help! Im in Bristol though and i cant really be bothered to send them away miles if i dont have to, but in this case i think i will! Have you got a number or website?
Nah mate the wheels are fine. I found a place to shot blast them which is in the same town i live in! But they dont know where i can get them powder coated! Do they have to be a specialist? The trouble is that I dont know where to start looking to find a place to do them!
No it aint mate. Its just a puddle in the one spark plug tunnel type things. Its where when filling if you miss a bit it all happens to poor into their! No other anywhere and no leaks!
Im gunna make him an offer but he wants some wheels to put on it after to keep it a rolling shell! Mind you the phs 2s are sat in my garage cus i have my 17s on at the mo!
Mmmm low black valver on white 15s.
The plan is to make them white but im still unsure as i have all the caps for my wheels and theyre in good nick....
They would look as good as turbines in white though wouldnt they?
Checked my spark plugs and the end one near the oil filler cap has a load of oil in it. I worked out that this must have been where the garage that serviced it must have spilt it there whilst topping it up. Is it gunna effect my spark? It seems to be runnin fine and must have been like it some...
I think i have the same sound in my valver. It sounds like it comes from the front shock area. The only other car ive heard it in is a peugeot 405 taxi! Its like a squeek type sound (Doesnt sound nasty) when you drive slowly over speed bumps and things yeah?
Im fairly new to the website and never had a car before the valver that actually pulled when i put my foot down. Anyway, I always see these pics where peps are on the quater mile or on track days and it looks great fun! Is there any in the south west at all and whats the deal with them e.g...
Right my car i think just has the standard alarm but what going on with it? Sometimes the indecators flash and horn beeps, other times it just flashes with no sound. Then other times again it makes a really high pitch squeel (Like a rape alarm really!) from a different siron which hets higher...
Red light is 3 points and a £60 pound fine! Trust me i got pulled for going through an amber (Which the police said was red!):@ light the other week. Let me off though when i argued it was amber:D
Well i just phoned the place that lowered it and he said i cant drop it anymore than what i have on the back without arch surgery!:( Im sure it can go lower no probs though, ill get a pick of the back arch.
He quoted me £50 though to drop it another 30mil with the arches sorted!:)
Mmm When i got my car lowered it was all even on a supposed 45mil drop but now like i say the front is much lower than the back! The front has defo dropped as the springs wore in but now the back looks to high! Whats the most i can drop it on the back with 17s no probs? I would say at the mo its...
Ill have to go make some enquiries then! Any rough ideas of a price to fit wishbones and driveshaft? Sayint that the kiddie with the r19 is a mechanic too!
