  1. 16x9 and 16x8 BBS replicas with excellent Falken tyres

     

    I have a set of 16" BBS style wheels in 5x100 fitment (also 5x112 I think)

    The rears are 9" wide and the fronts are 8" wide.

    Tyres are matching Falken tyres all round with very little wear having only covered around 1000 miles. The rears have a little scrubbing to the outer edge from the arch, but nothing to be really worried about. The wheels themselves are in good condition. A few kerb marks on the fronts, and some lacquer damage like most of these replicas suffer from, but they still look fantastic once fitted

     

    Rear tyres are 215/40/16 and the fronts are 205/45/16.

     

    Overall these look awesome when fitted, but have decided to change for the winter months and bad roads.

     

    I'm based in south east Kent, but will happily courier.

     

    Any questions, fire away.

     

    I will get pics up as soon as I can take some. Unless I can use photobucket?

    Mobile friendly version: 16x9 and 16x8 BBS replicas with excellent Falken tyres


  2. Whilst playing around today, and couple of observations.

    When I disconnect the isv, no change in engine speed or tone so cleaned that out with no change.

    I disconnected the hose from the rubber intake boot that runs to the isv and the engine obviously stalled. The strange thing is, if I plugged both ends of that breather pipe running from the inlet boot to the isv (with my fingers crudely) the idle speed was perfect.

    Any ideas what this would indicate?


  3. Very sound advice guys, thanks. However, there is no obd port fitted .The car is an early 92 VR6. There are two wires/connectors under the gearstick surround.

    I appreciate it is not wise to adjust the throttle stop without checking it, but is there a visual way to see if it has been adjusted in the past incorrectly?


  4. I can't find any air leaks, checked breather hoses etc.

    I disconnected the isv and the idle stayed exactely the same, high at around 1300 rpm. Am I right in saying the engine should splitter and die when the isv is disconnected?


  5. If your going to change the temp to ECU sender , which I think could be your problem , you may as well change all four of them . They should come with new 'o' rings and circlips .

     

    Wove fitted a new genuine blue sensor which I thought was the temp to ecu one?


  6. I have changed the blue temp sensor for a new genuine part .Any other sensors I should look at?

     

    I have checked for air leaks and can't seen to find any .I've even bought another airbox as the old one has been seriously butchered about .Sounds great though.


  7. I've been told there is a screw to adjust the idle speed of my 92 Corrado VR6. I can't find it anywhere. I understand its on the throttle body.

     

    Need to sort my idle issue out as its permanently idling at 1300 rpm.

     

    Thanks


  8. When I turn the ignition on on my 92 vr6, the relay numbered 67 (I assume fuel pump relay) constantly clicks

     

    I am right in saying it shouldn't do this, and that it should be changed?

     

    Could this be the cause of some hesitation I have at times when at low speed?


  9. Despite my username, I now have a VR6

     

    Couple of issues, firstly, I have noticed a breather pipe coming from the back of the inlet manifold by the throttle body. It has ben blanked off with a bolt. What is it for, and where should it go? When I removed the bolt, the engine revs drops and the splutters then dies

    Secondly, and quite possibly related, when you start the car from cold, like most vr's, the revs are a little high. After driving for a few minutes, the idle stays high and idles at around 1200/1300 rpm. This does not change unless I switch the car off and start it up again, then it sometimes idles at the correct speed, or it will idle high again.

    Sometimes, when in traffic, the car is quite jerky to take off, almost as if the throttle has a huge delay and then off you go. It pulls cleanly when driving along. Both the above issues are worse when the car is hot.

     

    I was thinking about getting another genuine CTS and trying that. I canot find any air leaks anywhere

     

    Thanks in advance
