Rather than simply down to the tyre pressures and tyre composition as this wont affect centering. I think its more due to changes in steering geometry such as SAI offset and scrub radius and affecting wheel rates.

They are good for std and slightly machined from the bare casting, but by no means anywhere neat their full potential. This engine will start to run out of puff around the 300-320bhp mark. Steve, you cant have any pullies, unless you plan on loosing the VVT actuator. For info on price...

quality workmanship at its best. ;)

Its good, compact and well made, no point in replacing it. You can go better, but not without a fair amount of R&D time.

should of gotten a curcular saw peice for holes, thats a small hole compared to the 3-4" holes you could of made! now go get one and make some bigger holes!

if the accesories belt goes nothing major will happen in terms of death to an engine. Just switch off and wait for the AA lol.

I thought it was finished eons ago.............now its just being built?

Timing belt, a belt doesnt make a noise, its either your tensioner, power steeting pump, alt or waterpump bearings.

more likely to be the dampers, take them off and bounce the car.

no you remove the pad carrier, not the whole caliper. its held on by 2 bolts on the back of the caliper......

flowed head is the cheapest and best mod to do without resorting to massive cash outlays......

If you needed to get it fitted by an approved dealer its no wonder you think its great. Its crap, end of.

have u missed that huge lull at 4k?

SARCASM!!!!! He said estimate so i threw out a figure, hows 94bhp!??~ And as for 30bhp gain....erm, if you can show me a near 170 brake valver with all that bolt on fluff the ill eat one of my toenails.

the 1.8 and its design make it naturall peaky, you cant do anything to gain lower torque apart form leave the cam as it is and increase breathing efficiency via headowork, its honestly the only thing you can do at the moment, unless you want to use N20. Turbo, if you want it to come on...

there is no mixture adjustability, you have to get down to Ren so they can have a peek on their XR25 to see if any sensors are playing up.

ta!

a couple of people have this problem and the easiest solution is to alter the hanger posisitons to lift the exhaust elbow higher. Just get a hammer and steel rod (extention bar is fine) locate it on the top hanger above the bend, hit it so it moves it up, put the rubber back on and itll be...

you dont need too much camber on the MK2s.....

oil loss is always high on our engines. The under piston bore sprays means alot fo oil is burnt up in teh breather system as it moves about as vapour. 10w40...........oil is reccomended but isnt biblical, i use 15w50 as they run so hot that a higher vis oil is needed, and you should choose...

just tighten them up.................... but if you really wanna know, 9daN.m

use some marker pen or tipex to mark the edges of your subframe just to make sure it all goes back straight. JUST IN CASE.

they arent no.

THats caue peak torque occurs at peak VE and after that your fighting a loosing battle until you alter cam profile.

probably just the starter. I cooked mine several times and it wouldnt work till the nxt morn. Sometimes it acts up and i jiggle the connections, it doesnt like the heat.

you got a 2ltr engine and its comming on cam at 4500!? what cam have you got? If its wild, why not just downgrade to a cam with equal lift and less duration and a wider LCA? But if you havent had your head ported, get one........itll perk it up all over the rev range. Incidentally, i...

When you take it off a little fuel will spurt out under pressure, but nothing major, but taking the filer out will leak fuel all over the shop as its full to the brim. Just take car and youll be fine.....eyes covered.

imagine a stone chip on that! a 1000 quid crack on your bonnet.

4bhp

By unplugging the ABS system via the fuse or wheel sensors youll NOT have EBD control. Brake bias is controlled via EBD software through the ABS computer, removing abs will revert the car to 50/50 split braking.
