Andy

-
would this one fit http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Slim-Line-Interco ... dZViewItem its abit smaller
-
very nice and what a bargain im just trying to find my mates for ya!
-
jesus beavis look at the price of this one http://www.classiccarsforsale.co.uk/cla ... carno=1620 is his in good nick? as my mate was always saying he couldnt get a 2.5 as too expensive! edit: just rang my mate they do come in an auto!
-
thats very very strange i was sure that the 2.5 16v came in manual i never knew they came in auto the auto box will slow him down alot also for a 2.5 16v cosworth merc that is incredibly cheap as they are rarer than the 2.3 16
-

thats mental jay just been looking through it for about 1/2 hour really like it actually but id never heard of that car! his colour choices are quality imo too! -
bill yeah spoke to aide and his massive one is only 31" long and he had to cut away quite a bit of his bumper so that makes this one like 33" long and he was saying he had to cut alot away so i think i need to find a smaller IC in diameter as I want to keep the G quite standard looking ill probs wait now to be honest and just get darren to do it coz i know the one he will supply will fit and be put in properly! it was just he said i can have it for cheap otherwise he gonna sell it on! I might send darren an email bill have you got a FMIC what size is it and is it custom or from a mercedes sprinter or something? Cheers Andy

black g60 does that mean it will be good or not?

hi mate my best mate had one the 2.3 cosworth 16v then the brought out the 2.5 which they ran in the DTM series in german i believe the evo 2 or something! theyre defo rarer than our g60's! i beat it im my G60 but i did love his it was was a c-reg and he had a full through exhaust and custom manifold on it he saw 140 out of it so theyre defo not slow felt lovely on motorway at 90 he got his from essex was a bargain at £1550! but needed some welding and had some really dodgy 3 spokes! ill try get a pic of it for you! has your mate got the the cosworth half leather interior? I never really liked his dog leg gearbox but he said he liked it once he got used to it! and he always said a common problem was the mileometer stopping! his stopped working on 118,000 miles also the dash cracks are quite a reguarly thing but he replaced his when he changed his speedo! he said it was expensive for him to run he now has a supra 3litre single turbo on a G-plate and he said that his merc drank more but imo the merc looked better he brought some 5 spoke amg's for it and got them coloured black they looked rude! if your mate wants to know anything i can give you his email number!

hi all been offered a 150bhp gt tdi mk4 golf FMIC from a mate the dimensions are height- 42cm length- 88cm(from edge of outlet to edge of inlet) width- 3cm the core (without the intakes) measures 42cm high 62cm long and 3cm wide the intake holes are 7.5cm in diameter can anyone tell me if this will fit the g60 and does anyone know if it will be a good buy or not as I havent got a clue about FMIC's and dont certain intercoolers run certain boost or is that only applicable on turbo's! Any advice would be great Thanks Andy
-
i couldnt tell from your post earlier but from further reading i may be wrong you are losing out as you have a standard charger what you need to do if it is standard and i havent mis read is get it down to g-werks and get it ported to either stage 4 or full blend which is the full works this will really show a massive improvement with the 65mm pulley! as the flow through the charger is increased immensly! Cheers Andy
