same. i think my rear beam is slightly out so would be good to take a look at whats going on properly and make a decision on what to do next

It is yeah 👍🏻

Just under half a tank when weighed in, I should of filled it up straight after to figure out how much was in there but have only just thought about it. On fuel usage, I've been kicking its head in, driving silly fast and its pretty decent. Last calculation put it at 29.7mpg.

Defo, will drop you a message and see how you are sorted. Oh and return your tools :ROFLMAO: 🤦‍♂️

circa 400bhp which works out about right power to weight wise if mines 270/280bhp per tonne as the Soarer is a 1500kg car

1000kg on the nose! With just under half a tank of fuel. There will be some inaccuracies in it I'm sure but happy with that. Really need to get it on some proper car scales, cough cough @Ads29 cough cough 😉

ok so im going to slap it on a weigh bridge thing later on, what do we think it will come in at? from standard it really only has the back seats out, an air bag and some lighter wheels but now has a heavier engine up front...

not in Gloucester itself but I am heading up to caffeine and machine on Friday eve if anyone fancies it https://helmtickets.com/events/7099/caffeinemachine-friday-sundowners?iframe=1&d=1&op=1&slot=18134

cheers man, yeah its growing on me. I'm not going to lie I wasn't really gelling with it at first.

PMT pikey mod tuning. Being less of a pikey isn't an option

Might get a red and black version to be a tart. Perfect cheap filtration 😁

We have had the first failure on the twingo. Some of you may have seen some silly antics on Instagram yesterday (@ adeyspec if you don't already follow), no biggy for the car but was nice to get out and beat on it a little, @jezer101 took it for a spin too, wheel spin anyway 😀. Normal when...

m8 stud, m8 nut with 13mm head (y)

always gets me when people get thread size and head size mixed up

:LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :love: posting to bump the awesomesauce thread so others can see.

spin the crank over 1 more turn

Oily Rag, been there a few times, decent space and a coffee shop. Nice and central for people. Im game for that (y)

Gloucester services could be a good shout actually, decent space, easy access for most 👍🏻

So there's a fair few members in Gloucestershire, who's in for a small meet up? Any ideas on where? also when, maybe a late afternoon or evening?

Sounds good to me, ill pop up another thread and see if we can sort a time and place (y)

be nice to get out in it, family life means most of my driving about is just on the commute. We should have a little quiet local meet up some where soon. Coffee meet up somewhere would be good

Got in today for some suspension tweaks and tyres. Settled with -1.6 camber and a touch of toe out inline with the standard rs133 cup figures. Should be ok on the road with the odd track day if it ever goes on one. Its now on some Michelin pilot sport 3s, load better but its futile trying to...

bolt in a diesel box, plenty of longer ratios to choose from or if 5th is the only gear you have an issue with you can swap just that with the gearbox in place easy enough (y)

just checked mine, o ring under the sender to the tank. it looks like it goes on to start with by hand then goes tight for me. iv tapped it around will see if it still leaks on the next fill up

I could be assembling it wrong though. Does it go black locking ring > o ring > sender or locking ring > sender > o ring ?

there is a tool to do it with but I'm convinced there's a way to line it up before starting to wind it on, just not found it yet. I tend to lube it up a little, then place the ring on whilst holding the sender down. Turn it the wrong way until it drops back onto the thread and then do it up.

I always have a problem with these, mine is leaking if I brim the tank on the Twingo. About once in the last 4 times I've done it has it properly sealed. Proper t**t of a job, hopefully someone pipes up here on the "correct" way to align and fit them.

After going mad to get this done I've not driven it since the start of the month.... 🤦‍♂️ kind of gone off the boil for it after cruising around in the Dope so much. I've booked in for 2 tyres and alignment next Monday through a mate for max discount. Just need to to double check the ride...

go to a reputable place, EFI Parts would be my recommendation, but yeah good map will give more all over its not just about peak numbers. 170 to 180bhp if your timing is correct. Get group N timing before getting mapped would be my choice.
