Hi Guys.... its been a while - is everyone well? I was wondering today after spotting a very tidy storm on the M65 if anyone has seen or heard of my old VR6? :?: I would love to know how its getting on...

Thanks mate :oops:

A diesel wont even do that either ;)

Mmmmmmmm I've timed my car with a G Tech pro and got 0-60mph in 6.08 secs.... thats running 12psi@220bhp... How on earth can you get 6.5 secs with just 138bhp?

Should have bought the sport trim mate.... my mate just bought one and its superb. Apparently the SE is under damped so would change the dampers first. Some KONI ones should do.

Poorboys for me .... converted from Meguiars

If you are seriously interested I could tell you everything thats right and everything thats wrong with my car, pending on whether I decide to sell up and move on etc.. Work out what you want to do mate - then we'll take it from there.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm G60 :twisted:

If you dont want it - I'll have it ;)

A Corrado with no service history wont sell easy at all - would say £2k tops.... its obviously a dog.

Aye...100s of Citrix Terminal servers....oh the joys.... Still, I get to run 2000, XP and 2003 Server from the same box I suppose. 2003 Server Standard sucks....it's dog slow. I wonder if any of the other 6 flavours of 2003 are any better? 2003 sucks.. BIG TIME. Doing a migration from NOVELL / 2k to 2003 server and its a major pain in the butt...

- thats my missus :-P :lol: :lol:

Unless the car is single point injected :wink:

its amazing stuff - great in engine bays too!! Yup - even on my missus leather trousers :lol: 8)

Autogylm Vinyl Care.... Works on anything

I reckonise your car mate........ where abouts in Shropshire are you based?

Where is Kev's car? - that gets my vote.

But your sticking to the basics - you are ignoring the fact that manufacturers design the chip for the engine on a mass produced basis. They also as mentioned have to factor mpg / emissions / etc to keep the general public happy and in some cases run a slighty detuned chip to ensure 100% reliability (eg diesels)... I have also known some manufactuers deliberately detune some engines to prevent them from showing up their flag ship models... In most cases if not all - a chip designed for a specific engine by an aftermarket manufactuer with no other mods WILL gain 'some' power as although you are right in that the flow characteristics will not change but the ability of the aftermarket chip tuners is to maximise all values to develop more power.... even given the general scenerio that you wont gain much power from doing this without mods.

You dont want to be poking wire down the oil galleries mate - its an alum head!!! :shock: I used to be a vauxhall nut myself so know a few things about them... If the transfer box is leaking then I'd suggest getting rid of it - looking at a couple of grand to have that sorted....

Why take it back to a garage that wont have a clue? Find a new garage dude.... On the valver the Fuel Reg. plays up and causes what you describe... engine wont rev up well either... But its a basic engine once you get past the KE Jetronic system... shouldnt be hard to solve.

Sorry to see that mate but if its any consolation Elephant are very good for paying out promptly... a good friend of mine has just had to do that through them. Very good.

had those before - utter shite

Will be interesting to see what the F1's will be like in snow :roll:

Honestly mate you really dont want the Uniroyals - utter shite!!!

Mine's not standard mate! :lol: I was talking to Kev ;)
