  4. ive got koni TA's and Eibach 35mm lowered and uprated springs. Excellent setup!! -would like a bit lower but konis are only rated to 35mm drop. they give excellent sharp handling whilst retaining ride quality!! 8)
  5. http://www.bpamoco.co.uk/ultimate/uk/petrol/default.asp - have a look at this. turns out that its not so ultimate afterall
  6. Darren mate, ive got a big list of things for you to do soon after i come back from Oz - and the toothed belt conversion is high up on that list!! 8)
  7. so beetlebug - looks like its on its way to you very shortly, if not already!! 8) although, depending on price, might just stick to optimax :D
  8. beetlebug - no worries dude! thought u might know something i didnt thats all 8) got my mate to ask a few questions, here is the reply he got... Dear Mr Flower, 1. Why isn't it 100RON like the BP Ultimate in Greece? It's due to differences in the markets. In developing BP Ultimate for the UK we have sought to produce a fuel which provides significant benefits for a relatively small additional price. If we sold 100 octane BP Ultimate in the UK it would have to be significantly more expensive, and would make it less accessible to the UK motorist. 2. How is the 97-98RON achieved? Is it normal 95RON with additives blended in to achieve this, or is it refined to achieve 97-98RON from the word go? The increased octane of BP Ultimate is achieved by more thorough refining. It's a brand new fuel developed over the past 18 months. 3. What is the MON rating? The Motor octane number is 86. 4. What parts of the country has it been released in to date and those garages that have, is it advertised as Ultimate or still normal 97RON? BP Ultimate is available in most of London & South East, parts of Central England and in parts of Scotland / North East / North West at the moment, by the end of the week it should be in all regions. In these sites it is called BP Ultimate. Regards, Freddie Boniface Customer Care Advisor BP Oil UK Ltd 0800 402402
  9. why only scooby owners? there are loads of performance cars that will benefit from 100 ron fuel.(if in fact it is 100 ron!!) Its actually in pumps on the south coast and in a few in london at the moment. so if you fill up with super down on the coast, chances are you are filling up with ultimate :D although, its not as you might expect :cry: here is a reply a mate had when he enquired about ultimate @ BP Dear Alex, Thank you for your email received 07/10/03 regarding BP Ultimate. BP Ultimate Unleaded and Diesel are performance fuels that are designed for all types of vehicles, not just performance cars. They were released 07/10/03 in about 100 stores in London and the surrounding area and will continue to spread to other sites across the country daily. BP Ultimate Unleaded has an octane rating of 97-98 RON, causing less pollution along with having twice the cleaning power of ordinary fuels. In tests BP Ultimate Unleaded acceleration increase was roughly equivalent to having the next larger engine size e.g. Its like upgrading from a 1.8 to a 2.0. It removes performance robbing deposits from your engine that other fuels can leave behind. Thank you again for your email, if you have any further queries please don't hesitate to call the BP Careline on 0800 402 402. Yours sincerely, Freddie Boniface Customer Care Advisor BP Oil UK Ltd 0800 402402 hope this helps!! i do think its crap that we dont get what the rest of europe gets tho!! :mad:
  10. that sounds 'kin awesome 8)
  11. double standards there spoier dont u think? u know what i mean
  12. ive got eibachs and koni TA - very good ride. i would like it lowered a bit more, but the konis are only rated for this drop. It is lower than standard and looks ok. a lot of how good it will look, i think depends on your choice of wheels. (im running 16" as well and im happy) The set up was recommended by AMD so cant be bad 8)
  13. not a problem dude 8) i'll make the phone call!! :lol:
  14. Got my car back from GWerks a couple of weeks ago. Went in for a service and some porting. Got back a spanking shiny charger that kept me smilling all the way home!! Top service from Darren - theres some motor specialists out there that should take a leaf out of the GWerks handbook. He even steam cleaned it for me!! Great ride back to the big smoke - so far ive got 250miles on the charger - only another 250 to go before i can open her up a bit. However, MOT time last week - need new windscreen and calipers! Im going to Oz start of november and cant afford to get repairs done. Im now really frustrated that ive got my car back and Darrens got it running sweet, and i cant fookin drive it!!! gotta look at it till December now. ITS ONLY OCTOBER!! gutted!! Another satisfied GWerks customer. I’ll deffo be returning! 8)

  18. think you'll find there are some on your side of the pond mate! check out http://www.passionford.com theres a few cozzie owners from your neck of the woods on there :D
  19. Hello mate, i havent got a pic 2 show you at the moment, but i can tell you that im running my Corrado on those exact wheels and it looks crisp. if your C is lowered 35 - 40mm on those babys it will look good. although a nice set of split rims never fails to please on a C 8) ..so whatever you do, it sounds like it will look good! :D
