http://www.dubland.co.uk 8) Think the site is down yet again because of the amount of peeps downloading the pics. I've gone way over bandwidth this month. My limit is 1GB a month and I was on 1.95GB's when the providers took it off line. Going to change providers soon as its starting to annoy me! -

PhatVr6, By ARB you mean after market rear boxes?? If so they are powerflow boxes, which I know is not the best make but it was the difference taking the car 1/2 hr down the road and 4hrs.. Its a 2.5" bore, was going to be 3" but too much ££ Ben -
Think I'm going to ask a few glass places in the local area to see if they would be able to make a mould and then produce some clear versions. Only probs is I need some late spec lights now. Anyone got a spare set?? Ben
-
Hi guys, Just thought I'd post a few pics of my new exhaust which I'm well chuffed about!! :)
-
What lights are Bill's then?????? I bet they're not custom jobs, question is - where do they come from and what spec are they... I'll put my sherlock homes hat on and find out :!:
-
Right, I'll get on the case. I've got a mate working in the US so I'll see how much they are, manybe we could get a few of us then it might be cheaper. I'll keep everyone updated! Ben

Can we UK peeps get hold of these do you think? They are wicked, not bothered about them being LHD as I would only use them for shows etc. Would a UK dealer be able to order them? Could just get the clear lenses and suround?? What do you guys rekon? Ben

guy called supercoupe on this forum might be doing it. PM him.

I love that UPS corrado! Wanted mine to look like that but I have done something a bit different instead. Wouldn't mind the 500bhp motor bolted to my 4wd though! Another good contender for the best modified C. Sukh, I'm sure yours is good enough for a position in this thread??? -

Nice, not sure about the practicality of everyday use though. Although I can picture it in Tescos car park.. Anymore... -
Nitrous Group Buy Save 20% Off Retail Price
biggerbigben replied to JasonSanders's topic in General Car Chat
Would like it for cooling purposes but can't justify the money at the mo -
Amy, Have you got an early bonnet? I bought a VR6 bonnet so hopefully it will miss the top of the engine ok. But the sump does lie low. Ben
-
I know what I was going to ask, whats the clearence like for the 20v sump - it looks a bit low for my liking. Ben
-
Alex, Get the kenlows from ads in a Landrover mag - alot cheaper than somewhere like Demon Tweaks etc.. Ben
-
Nice job. I've tried fitting VR6 fans but they are way toooo big. Going to get either one or two Kenlow fans, a bit expensive but you can get them 20-30mm in depth! Nice pipe work...

Here is a pic of the rad side. Sorry its the only one I have with me :( Its still not sitting right, it needs to be pulled back on the passengers side another couple od cm's so the headlight clears. I have had to make up some small brakets for the radiator to sit on as I've pulled it back a bit towards the engine so the intercooler doesen't hit the headlights. This means I'm going to have to buy a really thin fan for the rad, but I can't complain as the intercooler cost me £145 brand new and Pace wanted over double that for a similar size cooler. Ben
-
Thats a good figure!! Quite quick then. Its all about money at the moment for me. Therefore changing to leads will have to wait. Yeah saw your intercooler, a bit small for the power. I bought a Merc Sprinter van intercooler, they are massive and should be ok for anything upto 350-400bhp, only problem is they have plastic ends but I'm hoping to have some alloy ends made up at a later date. Although I'd like to get a custom one made. With standard internals I'm looking for about 340-350bhp @ wheels and 380bhp (ish) at the flywheel. Hopefully getting it mapped over easter time. Combined with the 4wd it should be a quick motor. How long have you had yours on the road? Any problems??
-
DTA I've heard are a good management to go for. I only went with Haltech because Jabbasport are just up the road from where I live in Norfolk. Have you got standard power? I am going a bit ott with a IHI turbo and matching cast manifold.
