Re: Bomber's Savage Supercharged Snorting Slut of a Ph1 I think i do too Public shaming i say ;)

ktec filter is made by pipercross. Pipercross filter is dyno proven to be less restrictive than the ITG (which is normally blocked solid with the thick nasty retention oil they use)

for what it's worth, I agree with Ali, and say the bottom pulley has spun. Probably didn't torque it with the correct procedure

I'd expect you to need a set of valves, headgasket set, cambelt kit, water pump, coolant, oil, filters, plugs, and a few other small items. £700 roughly including labour if it's a K7J engine, and there's no piston damage. There WILL be bent valves, what they're suggesting to you is trying a new...

dont tell me you're quibbling at £300? I wouldn't touch it for that, barely covers the parts

sounds like an air lock, or a loose wire on the temp sensor to me

stats open at 89deg seeing a number of genuine thermostats having the rubber seal around the wax stat section break up, or just pop out of place. Mostly on mk1s so far though.

engine rebuild. If they big end bearings have gone to the extent of causing a seizure, they your crank will be damaged, and you'll have lots of nice metal swarf in the oil gallaries. I doubt it's that though TBH

sod unravelling it, they corrode internally, rub through on corners, short out inside loom casings.......buy a new loom from Renault, it's not that expensive and a well known fault

bolts are M5 (any fasterer supplier in the country would have told you that ;) ) throttles open to 88degrees and not the full 90 by design. It's on the jenvey website if you want to take a look. They're not going past center, they're stopping just short. I have a set infront of me now, exactly...

calipers work on more than just the piston movement. Are the sliders moving freely? does the handbrake work?

Anything can be done. Things can be made, adapted and bodgeneered to fit. However, if you have to ask how, then I'd suggest you wont be able to do it yourself

bearing is around £20 on it's own. Clutch kits come with a new one included. The time to do it is the majority of the cost though

about £450 ish. Not checked clutch prices in a little while

sounds like the release bearing. Big job, 7 hour book time roughly, no point in not changing the clutch while you're there

with those pipercross boxes, it's more important getting the distance right. Trialed one in a very tight space and because the box was too close to the bell-mouths it was a big restriction, but a sausage filter swapped on was a lot better. I think it was 18bhp difference we saw. With decent...

30mm is a fair clearance. You can even see improvements in places by having a baffle plate closer to the trumpet mouth. the rules are not hard and fast though, it has to be experimented with to find what's best. I would stick with what you have in honesty

proper clips are fitted with pliers like these http://www.google.co.uk/products/catalog?q=cv+boot+pliers&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&cid=11895315098151289408&ei=uuRPTdm_HJjgygXY6oz-Aw&sa=title&ved=0CAcQ8wIwADgA#p Cable ties are 10000000% not suitable, the boots are plastic and not soft rubber, so...

thats really lovely!

yes, buy you're wrong. Your SR will sound w**k, my CA sounded badass ;) This meg sounds brilliant IRL. FACT
