Sold it two years ago to a work colleague and I started a new job and he left and without giving me (not that he had any right to do) the heads up part ex'd it for a skoda!!!!!!
To be fair it was an Octavia Vrs, he got £3500 part ex price?
Tbh if had told me I would have bought it back at that...
Ok, my stand and home cinema kit has arrived but still waiting on my TV:dapprove:
The sony DAV-DZ260 has 850 watts (RMS) but would it be possible to use my floor standing Eltax speakers (200 watt) as the surround speakers as they are currently either side of my sofa wired to my NAD amp...

Nearly 5 years of ownership it will bring a tear to my eye but another little one is imminent so needs must!!!
Might have some bits going spare...(all from my 172 cup 53 plate)

After having some more work done on my car i have yet to have it power tested. I know the age old debate of dubious rolling road figures but would just like to know.
Below are my RR readings standard and after a piperx viper, magnex cat back with a superchip...
Off to AWT later to get my new brakes fitted and my annual service.
Hopefully she will stop better with some Brembo max discs and Pagid blues' (got ktec drilled discs and greenstuff on at the mo) and once she has had her usual tipple of Motul 300v 5w 40 im sure she will reward me with another...
Narrowed my choice down to :
Goodyear GSD3 or
Yoko Parada.
Had all sorts on my cup from the oe contisports to A539's (DOH !) and last few sets on the front have been toyo T1R's.
So currently T1R's all round but front are due a change and back have been on 18 months ish but one has a slow...
My friends car has had a problem since he bought it from the dealer a year or so ago. One minute tickover is fine then it stutters and nearly stalls as revs die, then its fine again.(only does this now and again)
The BMW/Mini garage keep checking it but no faults are coming up on diagnostics...
Any one know how much as mine seems to have cracked ?
It looks like you can just unclip the power terminals and replace like for like but im guessing it wont be that cheap !
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers
Is it possible to get your oil temp to come up on the on board computer ?
Some one must be able to reprogramme it ?
Renaultsport experts says not though !
skidly asks Hi Allen, Is it possible to fit an oil temp sensor and link it to the dash mounted computer ? I know you can fit aftermarket...
As you lower it fully !
Sounds like the glass is going to break and it judders slightly.
Has it come out of position or is the motor knackered ?
Any one have any ideas as to the problem ?
Really annoying chattering / squeaking noise coming predominantly from the front left of my cup. Only noticeable when driving slowly with windows down. Sounds like my shocks squeaking (H&Rs fitted about 9 mths ago) but when i push down on each corner - no noise. Even does it when driving on a...
New cams with new cam belt kit, and remapped ?
Some places want £1500 ish for the lot (all parts etc)
Sounds a bit pricey doesnt it.
Any one know where i could get it done cheaper ?
Bearing in mind you can get the cam belt kit £120 ish and cams for £500/600.
So they are charging nearly £700/800...

Sorry for being nieve but after all ready doing a dozen or so laps and checking my pressures i dropped them to 30 all round (the were 33 front 30 rear - cold) Is that right or should they be 30 psi when cold. They...
and gonna revert back to standard airbox and paper filter !
From all i have read and been told there really isnt much difference.
My viper has a CAF going down to behind the lowest front grill and IMO i dont really notice any difference.
Thought about a ITG panel instead but at £44 ish sounds a...
Havent put any proper pics up yet so here is a sunset shot !
Yes i know you can see the stealth so may have to push it higher but only 1cm gap between back box and heat shield.
Doesnt look too bad though !
I heard v good things about AWT but would there be much of a difference between their work and say GDI ?
Dont wont to upset any one but its the next mod im looking to do and i have used GDI in the past !
In my somewhat limited mechanical opinion if the inlet and phlenum are made good to a high...
Sorry for being thick i did try a search but no luck on what tool you need to adjust the rear ride ht. Looks like a big allen key may fit the internal screw ? Any help would be welcomed !
