    Serious Lift-off Oversteer!

    if only it were that simple mate.......... very few, in fact no decent drivers will adheire to those rules, as they are BSM level rapid progress driving. if you were to do all your brakin and changing gears in a straight line, you would be on the brakes so early. and what about a long...

    Am I the only one

    well, as far as it goes, it is a rare breed, and many women are more into teh cute and cuddle looks of a car...if its midly or very powerful its coencidece....but im sure GR will clip me behind the ear for saying that. but women interested purely in performance are rare, lou who has a fezzy...

    simple oil question

    a 5w40 has (if its a multi vis and not a synthetic) ALOT of polymers to control viscosity thinning as temps increase........and lots of polymers is a bad thing..... and like i said, a 15w-50 MOb 1 has the same pouring characeteristics as most 5w-30s. anyhow......a 0w40 in aus should be fine...

    172 Throttle Bodies & Manifold

    by kit do you mean somthing like the alpha gold but with a F4 manifold added...... as you can get it pretty much already. But cost will have to be around the 1800-2000 quid range as thats what the alpha system goes for. If you can beat that, im sure some people will go for it.......

    EcoTek Valves

    YES........... they basically have no padding in the bottom......well, my seats dont....apart from a thin foam layer. the back is bolt upright, so i can imagine a motorway will geat seriously annoying. But if your tough, you can live with it......but i wont bother on my rd car......too...

    simple oil question

    best thing as nick says is to get what the manual recommends as its made to run with it. If not, and you want to get all techy, then the best suiting oil depends on the temp range your gonna be runnin the car in. its best to use a multi grade oil that has teh smallest span of viscosity that...

    Serious Lift-off Oversteer!

    must of been quite grippy (tyres or road) for it to snap.....otherwise it would of not been as violent. If it was slippy, the front would of let go first as the front loads up........ But hell, check that the wheel you hit on the kerb isnt bent, and there is no suspension damage as it...

    Warped disks

    waped discs will almost certainly be a vibration/judder from the pedal......if its ABS then the car will jerk whilst the wheels lock and unlock.

    H&R Coilovers

    but wont of had as much development work gone into it. Most replacement performnce dampers will be nothing but a replica strut with a spring rate and compression/rebound damping increase of 30%......no development at all!

    Scenic RX4 F4R Engine

    if you did swap the head over, it would need more than a light remap...... It would make sense to fit the 172 ancliliaries such as exahust, inlet manifold, injection system and pssibly the ecu....but you might as well swap over the engine....ti would be eaiser, then you could swap the loom in...

    Why no turbo’s

    well, with these jap cars. std they are ltd to 280bhp.....so out the box, even though they are more likely to come with 320hbp or so, the 911 carrera will be the same with 360bhp. the turbo is no match. and the secret to jap big power is purely big turbos, nothing else. as std, the...

    Cornering problem

    if it was the engine mount it would be englined to knock on every touch of teh brake or accelerator. But take the batt out and check anyways. and jack up teh car and wobble the wheel up and down, bacl and forth to see any play in teh suspension points and pickups.
