Mule

Am i missi...

Went to rover, new fob is 95squid.

My local stealers have an offer on and are selling fobs for Â£40.. drop me a line if you want one dude

Mule

Would spacers affect the handling? Is there any way I can check if the boost has been turned up, like if there was a boost controller installed before, what should I look for? Thanks Go for a ZR 160 (ZS 180) brake coversion.. you can use a plethora of different calipers (prelude, 620ti, zr 160 etc)...

I kept up with a skyline gtst the other day. I was following him round the twisties and then he just decided to boot it off but I kept right behind him and even had to keep backing off! The road opened out a bit so I pulled out and overtook him! As I did that it sounded like he dropped down a gear ...

All my local garages seem to be charging the same prices.

The one in Donny is 40% off mate, MASSIVE sign outside

Mule

I'll hazrd a guess that you're new to this forum malarky right...

Mule

i like the front-end on the bottom photo but the top photo is just waaaaaay too much IMHO

Mule

The rear lower one is available from Roversport and cost about Â£40... front upper ones are available from OMP (one of many compnies) for between Â£50-Â£80

i like biscuits Ditto - the new chocolate orange mcviti's are nice. Hmmmm...never been keen on orange tho.. Better yet- the caramel ones Nah. not keen on them, they stick to your teeth and "clag" to the top of your mouth... i like the Tesco version of Boasters.. now thats a quality biscuit.... sorr...

Flippin' eck, you sure?

My coupe does 4k at 70 in 5th.. bloody NASP gearbox

Mule

Went I went a RWYB it was Â£15 unlimited runs (omly I only got one run as some american P.O.S. blew up and they spent hours cleaning up the oil) Then when it finally came to my run the adrenaline was going and I really messed up 1st to 2nd and ran a 16.9

Very embarrassing!

Mule

If you want silicone hose mate then thats about the going rate..

A guy on here a while ago was making some pipes.. try PM'ing Chewy121

he might be able to help

Mule

Thats crazy but it doesnt look much like a ZS anymore

Mule

just a quick point, even if you can afford one then its worth asking yourself if you can handle it.. I know it sounds daft but if i'm honest I was too young to have such a fast car at 19 and even though i'm nearly 21 I still can't resist nailing it when I get behind the wheel just my 2p but I'd thin...

Mule

Thats pretty cool but if the cost of the batteries are anything like Milkfloat ones itll end up being very expensive! When I was working at the depot the battery "pack" retaining arm thing on the electric float broke and the batteries split open when they hit the road... long story short it cost cir...

Mule

I paid Â£1600 for TPFT on my coupe turbo at 19 with Tesco's..

Thats with 2yrs ncb 3points... I did that pass plus thing (ironically i was caught speeding on my pass plus hence 3 points) but I don't know whether thats counts after youve got ncb

they look the same,

But yeah, that will fit straight on yours.. same as my coupe in my sig

Mule

The chrome grilles are all the same, irrespective if they are of a Si SLi GSi GTi, I think what Mule was on about would be the plasic ones similar to this http://www.robcopson.btinternet.co.uk/gsifront2.jpg err, yeah thats what i was on about but that bumper (ok its not a coupe one) has a dip in it...

Mule

i thought that was the newer style?? either way, can you see at the bottom of the grille the is a dip in the bumper so it fits? well a GTi grille will fit all it screws to the headight brackets but as its designed for a flat bumper (no dip) there will be a big gap under it.. Plus when you remove the...

Mule

which bumper grille have you got on your coupe? they did two coupe bumpers that had different grilles... The newer chrome one which had a dip in the bumper and the older style one which had the rover badge on the bonnet and a flat bumper If youve got the newer style grille/bumper and you fit one fro...

Mule

cheers.. after a bit more fiddling I discovered that I had got the timing right (me, getting something right? makes a change ) and the misfiring problem was caused by a *dickie* distributor.. brakes now bled and car running better than before... mission accomplished Now just the carb to change for o...

Mule

the main thing is to mark the position of the camwheel up on cover or something when engine is at TDC compression stroke BEFORE u take belt off/anything else,then u know it will go back together with the right cam/valve timing.Maybe a bit late for this now,hope u havent moved cam/hope there is some...

Mule

george:- Just to spell it out for you, the original problem was that the head gasket was blown.. I bought a haynes manual to attempt the job myself which then caused more problems as the diagrams and descriptions were incorrect. Hence the tension in the belt problem (didnt show where the water pump ...

Mule

So the engine has a 16 year old cam belt on it? oops my bad. Good point.. no the cambelt was renewed about 10k ago.. but the water pump mounting is stuck fast Usually cam wheels have a lug-hole which locates onto a dowel on the end of the camshaft. Thanks for the info Im now off to try and fix my c...

Mule

OFFS. The cam pulley is connected to the cam which is part of the head, remove head from the car and the timing will obviously not be the same. How in fecks name does cutting the cover off improve anything?, if you've the tool to remove something properly then use it. That belt is probably made fro...
