i know it will be worth it!
i came in the house to nite after using the lamp out side where it was dark and cold and i was well hacked off, as its nerly dark when i finsih work, on 12hr days atm to fund this lot being 18 and and things aint cheap!, im always nackerd but need to work on...
these are ally very high top speeds and very illegal but my mates 1600 vts can do 140mph on the clock and as most of these are on the clock figs i thought they have been higher with larger bhp figures, and only slightly heavier car
yeh, it just gets you down, some nights when i get plenty done well i just think yea this is gonna be wicked then other nights i could happily kick it!
i bought my car about 2months ago, i still havent driven it any where!
and decided i wanted a colour change and a few little nigels sorting with it, such a car parking dings etc,
so i repaired all of these my self, qute handy with fibre glass and filler, all is fine, then i just thought f**k...
id go the 5gt route, not reliable but go for a full rebuild and uprated parts and tuning parts and look in the region of 200bph+
that should be fast, imagine the weight the 16v looses when that phat engine moves out!
right here where i was going wrong yesterday
i was tightening the bolt agaisnt the socket, not the nut, and jack was happening, i then got anoyed and f**ked it off!
cheers mate, good guide to makes a begginer like me feel capable lol not!
do you have trouble fitting the breathers? can i f**k get it to stay on, there that tight that the breathers go inside the kn when forcing them :(
and if there not on the car stalls
right
the bastid k&n has 2 breathers thing is there very hard to get on so hard that i cant get them on with out pushing to pipes on the kn back inside the kn as soon as these fall off it wont start or if air gets in, as soon as i reconect them it starts, need to sum how fix them
but yeh...
yeh over lowering really kills the car, but thing with me is im obseesed i cant settle till it cant go lower :)
hehe
172, can you do head work, or do you send the head away?
its easy enough to remove aint mate
are you the 172 owner that lives in the north east
right, iv got the haynes on engine sec
and with my probs its telling me to go to chapter1 5b and 5c
thing is these secs dont exist
chapter1b 5 does, but and c no where but there not the pages im after if us get me :(
im after a full repsary in flame red from my cheery red 16v, iv done mpost of the work my self such as strip the car etc, i just want it apinting and obv a few things checking there pefect 1st
painting car and colour coding bits such as rub strips and bumper bits on a 16v
please pm me a quote
right
so i put the bolt, socket and nut wind it in
then when its tight put the nut against the socket tight, then go clockwise with the nut? ahh, i wasnt doing it right, iv given up now
the car wont start so theres no point in lowering it
