-
Nice car Jez. I prefer the Mystic Blue to be honest and they seem to be much rarer than the green ones. With regards to your suspension. which height level are the koni shocks set to at the rear?
-
i looked at a ferarri once.... :cry: :cry: thats about as near as i have got though :cry:
-
probably a load of old
-
i dont really understand how his is different.... but then again it is home time at the end of a long day. i need to see it to understand i guess.
-
why? that looks like a RHD to me?

-
didn't think you were at inters kev? do they just come off the mk2 easily then? i.e without causing damage etc??
-
which would no doubt cost double the cost if not more! id personally just stick with the plastic one if it works. bugger just realised im not at inters at all now!! got my dates mixed up and im at a wedding in wales!!! oh well, a fun drive in the C willl part make up for it i hope
-
i have a good idea kev o king of the small mod!! :lol: why dont you buy both and tell us all which one fits best :wink: i see what your getting at actually. im pretty interested in this as i cant seem to stop my leak at the mement. I'm hoping if the whole area is covered the rain wont get in there in the first place!!
-
and what benefit would that give then???
-
you need to take the whole shock off. its easy though.... just remove the plastic interior panels around the shock (4 nuts) then 2 nuts on each shock. then 1 bolt on the bottom of the shock attaching to the car and bang....the shock / spring unit pops off... no need to use spring compressors for the rear as they are only under light compression. just get a helper to hold down while you undo the 3rd nut and bobs your uncle
-
i can imagine how much that will be from VW!! :?
-
does anyone else know about that rain cover?? oichan page says golf2 (which i guess is golf mk 2???? i dont read japaneese im affraid) where as vortex said a2 (i presume audi a2??) has anyone else tried it?
-
the reason for all the silicon is because the area around the heater intake is the main culprit for wet floors!!! its probably had a leak and he tried to fix at some point. a full cover would be a great idea and would surely stop any leaks!!!
-
my GPS is spot on, corners, roundabouts, etc.... all where they should be and up to 60 mph the speedo is the same as the gps. just after 60 -70 you can see the difference get larger
-
ok my last post on speedo inaccuracy before i go too far off topic..... :roll: it wasnt just one time, its every time i use it and the difference is always 10%. i dont see how the speedo and the revs can be inaccurate and mine is doing 100mph on the speedo at 4000rpm....so it must be my satnav that is wrong??? unless my car is completely goosed and all the readings are wrong.
-
ha ha,,, could be.... i think it polls every 2 or 3 seconds. will have to wait till i get to try your car again kev, i'll hook the gps up in there and check the speed.
-
just been out for a blast. 100mph on the speedo is 4000rpm ish.... so that all ties in correctly....either yours or my gps are wrong then
-
well my speedo must be knackered somewhere then??!! anything above 70mph is exactly 10% out all the way up to 120 indicated out of interest, when your in 5th....is the speedo needle and the rev counter at the same angle all the way round?
-
IIRC from my honda owning days.... you can only get them via inport. they never released in this country as it would take sales away from the civic type R. not as pretty as the old shape either IMO.

Insuring 2 cars, any good deals??????
jedi-knight83 replied to Andy Brookes's topic in General Car Chat
reason its so expensive is because you can only use your NCB on 1 car.... the other will be a new policy without any NCB!! thats how it was explained to me when i wanted to keep my crx anyway you could try for a quote as a dealer?? insure any car type of thing? -
so kevhaywire, you getting a new throttle body from amd and a re-chip (that must be about £550) so yours will absolutlely fly right???? surely you'll need the schrek and TB fitted before the rechip is done?
