i'd buy an rx7 myself.........sorry guys but i love those cars :oops:
-
great news :D does that mean you'll be down the next no-rice meet in it?
-
yep, work people especially, get ripped constantly at work and it is the stuff behind your back that hurts the most:( just do my best to ignore it
-
i have one and it's great. the road angels to not 'detect' active cameras, they use gps to warn you of accident black spots.......and cameras be they active or not. as far as i know because of this they are not part of the group of detectors that are being made illegal.

power figures are all pub talk really, but i've been told that stealth have good rollers and it was just given as a guide for the bloke, not meant as a 'you will get this power if you do this'
-
well, as a guide my car is has the stage 4 jabba charger, chip and 68mm pulley. i also have a stainless exhaust with decat and at the rollers on tuesday at stealth i was producing 189bhp and 187lb/ft or tourque. well worth the money if you ask me
-
oh yes :D, far better than it was and better than i had expected it would be. i love cars when they work well
-
will have to get that dizzy i need ordered asap then, pretty much the first bit of good news i have had since getting this car. can't get the grin off my face :D:D
-
thanks neil, but you always have to take r/r figures with a pinch of salt, just pleased it went from 163 to 189bhp, it's that increase that's important with a rr, not the actual figures. but i am well chuffed, will have to look through the history closer to see if anything else has been done
-
aaaarrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhh, stuff like this makes me so angry, damn i hate people!!!!!!!!! if it were me in that situation, after the feelings of murder had passed through my system i'd be in touch with a mobile valeter to clean it if i didn't have the time during the day, might cost a bit but better than it being left in the sun. hope it gets sorted and the fleas of a million camels infest the genitles of the bottom feeding scum that did this
-
jabba stage 4 charger, 68mm pulley and chip. jetex panel filter and scorpion stainless exhaust with decat is all i know of (only had the car for 3 months) and hopefully with the new dizzy and 6 degrees timing it'll pop out a little more
-
Took my car to Stealth Racing today to get it all checked over to see why it wasn't running right. after a little test drive and a go on the rollers it seemed that the timing was out, well i say out i mean off the scale!! it is now nicely sat at 4degrees (6 will come when i have a new dizzy) and went from 162.6bhp to 189.4bhp and 152.2lb/ft to 186.6lb/ft and i am now a very happy man. thank you again stealth, very nice people :D
-
mine was a popular plus, corking little car and like jim said, if i had done what i did in that in a more powerful car i'm not sure i'd be here today. saying that, when i got a powerful car it taught me how to drive
-
puts my 1.1 fiesta to shame, i'm with u gradeafailure, kids don't know what it's like to drive a crap car anymore :lol:
-
red valver on the M40 today on my way to no-rice, passed you and waved, and the you passed me as i was joining the M25, nice looking car dude
-
at least it's not just me, but wipers for the glasses might be needed if this carries on, just hope they are better than the C's wipers, i couldn't afford a lupo upgrade for my glasses too :lol: and yes, it bloody well stings when they get you in the face i'm sure one will cut soon
-
I've had my C for a little under 3 months now and in that time i have had 6 flying insects hitting me when i have the window open, and tonight one had the cheek to kill it's self on my half open window and deposit it's insides on my glasses :shock: ! In the 7 years i've been driving no bug has ever hit my when i'm driving, just splatted itself on the front of the car. one to add to the design faults if it's not just me :D
-
sorry dude, 19th of july. need to get my car sorted sharpish

The All New Lupo Aero Wiper Conversion Thread!!
MattWilde replied to Supercharged's topic in Exterior
Does anyone know if the seat arosa wiper arms are the same but cheaper? or will they know it's for a corrado and bump the price up accordingly :) -
My car is booked in for the 19th for some fault finding, hope they can get it to run right. european cars are new to me so it would be good to talk to a fellow owner
-
i haven't been here long but i have to say this is one of the nicest forums i have been/am a member of (sorry, but the mazda rotary club just pips you to the nicest:D) keep it up guys and gals
-
i can't fault goodyear eagle f1 gsd3 tyres, had no trouble getting 215/40/16's for my old car although i know 16's are tough to find

hello

bummer, sooooooo anyone with G60 clocks for sale? :D
-
Hi people, Need to change my clock in my car to eliminate that from my running probs but wondered if I could use the 1.8 16V clocks in a G60, will the MFA still show me the boost readings and will everything work ok, or do I have to do a specific search for G60 clocks?
