As title these was going on my vr but after having a think im going to sell these to hopefully fund a 3.68 final drive These are harder to come by in these sizes Heres the specs 16" 8j all round They have been diamond cut but and look great from a step back but they do have light curbing on them and tjere are marks in the laquer that i can photo for anyone that is interested Two tyres are for the bin One is a very good dunlop tyre with lots of tread and i cant remember the other but i can find all this out there just in my dads shed at the moment The adaptors are all 15 mm and all have the shallow headed bolts you need to fit them Heres some pics of them on the car I can take as many additional photos as needed if anyone wants any more Thes would look great on the car and could easily be run through summer and then refurbed in winter , would even make a good easy to clean winter wheel Price is 370 bit im open to offers and i am a bit of a wheel whore so could be swayed to swap them even though i would like them sold to do the gear box Cheers Any questions my number is 07980690184 or pm me on here

I think ill give it a go i just thought id read that it was bad for some part of the exhaust something to do with one part being hotter than the rest but i suppose the manifolds get wrapped and thats usualy the only part of the exhaust tjat gets wrapped in it

Last time i de catted the vr the pipe tended to sound quite tinny wen you planted your foot down , it wasnt blowing or anything like that , i was wondering if this time around before i put the decat in i could heat wrap it to deaded some of the tinny noise , only thing is im sure somewer i read that its not good for either the rest of the system or the de cat pipe , i cant remember wich one or if im even right and i didnt just read something different about exhausts , it wont effect the suitcase bix because there isnt one , the system will consist if standard downpipes and straight theough to a magnex back box Cheers

Looking good mate take plenty of pics at the ring

Sounds like it has a few problems with wiring , although it does still look a clean car and has had alot of work done , maybe he couldnt solve the problem and threw in the towel , im sure some one will snap it up and make good of it , surely it wouldnt be to hard for some one in the know to swap it over to standalone management to solve the problems , if that what it had

I didnt think it was three grand buy it now that would be way to cheap , does look like a good example , its hard to gauge how much more cash to throw at a car when you can buy one thats all been done , i just wanted to know peoples opinions

Seems a good car with lots done and the engine fitted right with all the standard management Im sure it went off ebay and then came off again , wats your thought on this car i was tempted but not sure if its hiding something , not saying it is if its someones on here it lolks a very nice car 221224395701 thats the ebay number

Yea the pic inposted is with a 195 40 16 , mine are 8j all round so theres a little bit of stretch , im not sure weather to run a 195 45 16 , both will work , and im running 15 mm adaptors with those , my arches could do to be rolled to stop some scrubbing but the car is low at the min

Cheers mate , there actually 16's mate and there 8 j all round the car is running low at the min tho and i think because they are a big flat face they look a bit bigger

Hey mate sorry i never got back to youbiv been really busy , coilovers wer a doddle to fit mate a good socket set and some ring spanners was all i used really , i fid the backs first and just laid everything out on the floor do i could see how it all went back on Get stuck in mate its easy , i got it four wheel aligned aswell mate thats a must after fitting them Good look man let me know how it goes

Sorry to hear this mate , if id of heard a noise and seen that id of been out confronting them and probable battering the **** out of them Sorry your car got done mate mine did about about teo years ago and its still got the key marks to prove it Good thing is i know who fid it and im just biding my time to get him back

Cool tjats good then its my birthday on the 21st so think im gonna do that as a birthday day out lol , ill ring you about it bud , it might be better to travell down together just incase of any unwanted problems , i wasnt going to camp but i rekon it will be a good laugh

Cheers caps ill have the lambda off at weekend then and take a look and see if there is any wires that are knackerd and ill give the plugs a good clean aswell and if that fails ill get a new lambda As fir the maf hows best to test it , can i just get the car plugged in to obd on the diagnostics and pull the plug with the engine running or is it more technical than that , im dont think any of the two parts have been changed and the car has done 110,000 miles now Cheers for the part numbers aswell thats great stuff

Cheers david much apreciated , i dont suppose anyone has the right part number , iv just had a look on ebay and theres quite a few makes of them and not sure wich is best Does anyone know where abouts the sensor is situated it looks just like the lambda sensor to me ! Or is it ? ---------- Post added at 3:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 3:34 PM ---------- Cheers david much apreciated , i dont suppose anyone has the right part number , iv just had a look on ebay and theres quite a few makes of them and not sure wich is best Does anyone know where abouts the sensor is situated it looks just like the lambda sensor to me !

Can someo e point me in the right direction of the oxygen sensor , iv had my vr up on a mates snap on ethos system and it threw up a fault code , 00525 oxygen sensor no signal intermitttent , is it worth just replacing the sensor and what kind of effects does this have on the car i havent noticed any problems apart from a bit a sluggishness when first fired up Cheers in advance
