If you are interested about displaying your car send me (mailto:[email protected]) or David Chapman (mailto:[email protected] ) an email to confirm you want to be on the stand. Cheers Ant

There you go here's a picture of mine!!! There's no spoiler on the front as it was too low for the roads round here, when it's on you cant even get your foot under the spoiler!!!

I have mine running at -80mm and that is about as low as I can pretty much go on 17's maybe you can do it when running on 15's as I had some gap before I put the 17's on but now I have none!

Its your Supercharger whistling it's one of the caracteristics of the G lader the smaller the pulley you go the louder the whistling gets!! :D Sounds pretty cool I think!!

When the O2 sensor is shot the cars fuelling shuts down to a safety mode which nigel has outlined itcould cause the fuelling to go through the roof as when mine had shutdown it was very hesitant it was running about 14% co when in natural state should be a max of 3%. By the sounds of it Kx3isme yucould have a problem with the sensor, most garages will have a lambda sensor checker which will be able to tell you weather its shot or not!! I would get it checked before you replace it as they aren't cheap at around the £80 mark.

didn't notice the under 150bhp :shock: whoops!!! :D How about the mk1 and mk2 fiat uno turbo's then they were under 150 in standard form not my cup of tea but still fairly quick!!!

The best car that came out of the dagenham dustbin factory of the late 80's has got to be the 3 door sierra cossie my mate used to own one 556bhp and that thing went like sh@t off a hot shovel it scared me to death with him behind the wheel!!!

eeer where's my bloody engine gone!!!!!! :D

Adrian flux quoted me £1500 tpft for me with alll my mods I got it down to £720 with HIC over half the price. He obviously didn't like me or something :D

Hans thats the VDO gauge panel which you are talking about but as of last october it was discontinued at main dealers and there aren't any left at any dealerships in the uk now so the only other alternative is make your own now!!! :D

PD-Motorport taking your dub to the next level!!!

I'll have a couple but they would have to be sticky on the back not the front as I have tinted windows and need to stick em on the exterior my pd one doesn't shine through enough through the tinted windows DOH!!!

£610 I hope that is fully comp jim I only pay £700 for the G60 which is grp18 give HIC a ring they'll sort ya out!!

Get an AA inspection they will pick up any faults with the car and be able to tell you everything thats either wrong with it or is going to go wrong with it in the near future well worth the 100 odd quid it costs to do the inspection you never know you could be supprised! I would approach cautiously though as the price is a bit low!!

I think someones nicked your bumper and lights mate :shock:

Lanny your new charger looks sweet in black!!

PTFE it's a grease!!! or should I say you can buy a ptfe based grease that would do the job!!

it's the lead that sits in the middle of the distributer cap and goes to the coil that sits on the bulkhead. As for taking it off you pull it off like you would with the rest of the ht leads

The occasional spray of a ptfe based spray grease is probably a better idea not sure about silicone based sprays though :shock:

No dubster thats only a suggestion for lowG to prime his new r1 charger as it wouldn't have any oil in it when he installs it back into his car!! once its been primed it will stay primed!

The whole idea of running the second intake dubster is to get as much cold air running through the charger as possible the colder the charge the more dense the air is which equates to more bhp :D As for priming the charger with oil I would take the coil lead off then crank the engine for a couple of seconds to get the oil circulating and then reconnect the lead and warm her up as normal at idle. I ll take a few pics tomorrow in the dayligh for you of my pipework as it is at the moment no second intake yet as I haven't dropped the rad yet.

Yep when I boost upto 13psi it is easily as loud as a turbo dump valve it certainly makes people turn round to look at where it's coming from :D If your going to run the second air intake your going to have to drop the rad a couple of inches so you can run the second filter straight behind the grille out of the way of the heat again!!!

There is the no rice meet in guildford every second wednesday for veedub owners there is usually a good turnout weather permitting of course that is a short trip down the A3 for you!!!

Could be the piston rings that have got worn as this could be were the oil is passing, piston failure in the G60 is very rare!!! How many miles has it done????
