How w**k are valvers on petrol. I stick a tenner in, pop down the shops a couple of times and its ready for filling up again! lol. But its so tempting to plant the foot to the floor every single time I drive it!
Ben H is that your engine? did it have a new one fitted like last week? lol IT looks like new!!! mine looks sh*tty compared. Can they be steam cleaned as mine has had a bit of an oil leak by the looks of it.
Im scared of things going wrong though. She is pretty low mileage but cos its old its starting to get a bit tatty here and there. they are quite fragile too.
I think if i get a proper mint job on the paintwork ill be happy. Anyone local to sheffield who can do me some good paintwork?
I have...
Ive been thinking about maybe selling my 16v and maybe getting something else. The only thing putting me off is that I have spent loads on mine and am scared if i buy another I might have the same trouble again.
I was maybe thinking of a very late N plate 16v with really low mileage such...
Yeah does to me. Has been a couple of weeks since he got the cheque. Like I said i dont wanna accuse him of anything. Just wondered if anyone knows him and if they know if hes gone on holiday or something
I know mate. Just bit bothered cos I am doing a project at uni and need a ramair filter to build an airbox round. Specifically chose that cos of the shape of it like. Cant afford to go and buy one for like £70 when i have just spent £40 on that one. Skint as it is this year with stuff being done...
Just I bought a filter off him. Sent the cheque and he got it on the 25th of last month and I still aint got it. No replies from my e mails and PMs
Dont wanna accuse him of anything but Ive seen a Will16v on e bay sellin a K and N. He said he had one on his and was sellin me a brand new ramair...
Racing cars are usually clean. A rally aint a race though is it. On a bumpy track it wouldn;t make any difference. On a nice smooth road maybe. You might get an extra 1mph lol. I have read it somewhere that it makes a slight difference! Cant remember where though :confused:
I know what you mean. Its probably cos its looking good and you just know its goin faster hehe. You never see a dirty racing car though do you ;). there is def something do do with drag involved but the amount of speed gained could never be noticed lol.
Ever noticed that your car always seems...
yeah get some 16v seats. Or Ill sell you my car for £3800 hehe. Full grey leather. aw the poor cows that had to give their lives for my comfort :D Never mind eh. Good job Im not a veggie!
Load of sh*te id say. On a 16v its fine. If the car is taking in more air the lambda sensor should detect it and tell the ecu to increase the fuel to compensate. This is why it should increase power in theory.
This may be a problem on new cars. Also on older cars with carbs you cannot just put...
I dont really notice any difference to be honest but then again its only slightly higher octane isnt it. Not like some form of Rocket fuel! lol.
I think mine seemed to use it quicker though. But then again my car is sh*te on fuel like all the time!
i believed yu were there mate hehe. Was askin when you were gonna come back to do that cad for me Anders hehe. Was thinking, sh*t a bit dodgy hope you get back ok or ill have to learn how to use pro engineer properly! :confused: hehe.
Glad you got back ok anyway. You got some pics you can send...
Anybody know where hes gone? ordered a filter off him and not got it yet. Need it for a week on saturday :( For the rolling road day as I have no proper filter.
Not saying youve done owt dodgy, just need to know if im gettin it.
hehe, yeah it is me. I bought it ages ago and never fitted it. Just ordered it cosI wanted to see what it was. It might do something but I dont fancy trying.
