What model/year is it?
-
What circuit do you want to measure the current in? Are you looking for the current drawn by the whole car, or just the stereo for instance?
-
I'd say the CBR600 rider looked pretty competent. The fact is, the Atom is blisteringly quick on a track that twisty and it can be pushed harder on the iffy surface. Still, a good CBR600RR can be bought for £3500; it'll be a while before Atom prices are quite that low :)

The Judge's G60, total rebuild...finished (almost) NEW PICS
bcstudent replied to BigTartanJudge's topic in Members Gallery
Slave cylinder...that's what I meant. Damn it! :) -
22.5mpg around town sounds about right, but a 25.2mpg average out of town isn't great. I'm not sure what to suggest to be honest.

If the clutch pedal is on the floor then it's a good bet that the clutch master-cylinder has failed. They're only about £30-£40 I believe. -
I'm a Dave *waves*

There's no seal as far as I know, just a dust cover that offers no protection against water.

It's probably not far out if you've only got 6000rpm to play with.

My 8v GTI used to sound like that when the cambelt tensioner bearing failed.

Suggestions for a new car please - decision made see pg3
bcstudent replied to Phil K's topic in General Car Chat
I just checked my mum's Cupra and it's also got red rear calipers. I can't say it's something I've ever noticed before. -

I think the Cupra had silver calipers and the Cupra R had red calipers. Tasty motor. -
I've never heard the name before, but :(

Not a lot with that amount of work required. I hate to say it, but you may get more money back by breaking it. To sell whole is probably only going to raise £400-500.

whens the best time of year to sell your car?
bcstudent replied to g60greeny's topic in General Car Chat
I'd say the summer; the warmth makes people docile. -
The standard wheel should be the Sebring.
-
This one? Works fine for me. It's the one with the poppy-bangy anti-lag for those that remember it.

Note to Volkswagen - how to build an appealing small car
bcstudent replied to Andy665's topic in General Car Chat
Better than a Fox, sure...but it still looks like a Nissan Micra/Ford Ka. I wouldn't say I find it particularly appealing. -
Good luck with that dude. I got a job yesterday that I've been waiting to come up for six years. I feel your pain regarding the waiting.
-
The fan itself is the same. You'll need to swap your resistor assembly over though.
-
All I can say is...WTF?!
-
That sucks. I feel your pain dude.
-
That'll be a wheel bearing on the off-side then. It doesn't necessarily need to exhibit play to cause a rumble.
-
It's because the 16v will reach 60mph in second gear but, I believe, the G60 ratios are shorter and you need two gear changes to get there. Correct me if I'm wrong. Incidentally, 1.8 16v and VR6 fuel usage is not as dissimilar as you may expect...
-
Probably not, but there is an optional lead you can buy that allows you to place a charging socket anywhere you like on the car.
