Quote from Franky.S :just you wait for when he finished with it, will look better than a 5

I have no doubt, but I am a big fan of luxo barges. They help compensate for my tiny penis.

All of these super saloons make me want to trade in my truck and get something more spirited. You bastards. That M is so nice though, but no, if it ain't a 5 it ain't worth the time of day.

I think I found your car on YouTube before you changed the wheels.

I really need to sort it out again so it is nice and clean.

Quote from Derv94 :i thought i could take it at 30 but with the car being lowered around 110mm and being on ridiculously stiff springs it does kind of take it's toll on the wet handling characteristics, it's a 1.4 tdi remapped with a surprising amount of torque so it does like to spin it's wheels in the wet

Lol, school boy error. A supple car is a fast car. The suspension is why you crashed, when you rebuild it put back the original springs and dampers. I suspect you could easily take that roundabout at 30 then. It is a fun trade off, you want the lowest car with the least amount of roll, but the softest suspension you can get away with. Too soft and it'll wallow around like a yank tank. Stiff springs only work on a race track, the smoothest roads are still worse than the roughest race track.

Also, when it comes to diesels, unless you spend HUGE cash, all they are doing is turning up the fuel pump. It is a brute force way to increase power, it works but is very dirty.

That all said, since you're a VAG boy, low and slow is the way to go. Good luck with your rebuild, although I don't agree with that scene, I respect your right to do it and your car actually looked good.

Quote from Derv94 :the road was a NSL but i saw the roundabout and slowed to 30-35 and just went straight on, not trying to put the blame on anyone else as i was driving but there was a jvb factory just o the right of that picture so i'm guessing the road may of had diesel on.

It wouldn't surprise me, but obviously without seeing how you took the roundabout it'd be impossible to know, looking at it though, I'd easily say you could take it at 30. Although I know in standard spec my Escort Van would understeer like a bastard at relatively low speeds. I never crashed it though.

Star Wars box set 1-6.

Never watched it before and this was cheap, so it'd be rude not to. I'm watching them in order of release and to be honest, I'm not impressed, mostly I just want to beat the tar out of Luke, he ruins the movie and makes me vouch for The Empire.

I'm guessing you entered the roundabout, tried to turn and went straight on? How fast was you going when you entered it? Probably a good thing you didn't have your alloys on front either or I imagine they'd have buckled on impact.

Quote from Jakg :I fitted a new intercooler as my old one looked like it was leaking badly.

Having removed the old one I actually don't think there was anything wrong with it at all, and when I put it back together I didn't do one of the hoses up properly as I now appear to have a boost leak and my car is dog slow (50 MPH + 5th gear + full throttle = no acceleration at all). Ooops...

I also still haven't got round to getting my bumper painted (stupid full time work), so my car still looks like shit. If anyone knows a decent (cheap!) bodyshop in Suffolk, let me know...

The joys of modern diesels, off boost they are useless. I've been in a Focus derv with a blown turbo and it struggled to crack 20mph. After sticking on the new turbo it made so much difference. But at the same time I've driven a 2.4TD Hilux with a turbo that wouldn't spool and it drove like a 2.4D Hilux.

Managed to solve to problems for the price of one. I had noticed a lot of oil collecting on the engine (looked like a serious leak was developing), some hunting around I found it was coming from the inlet, taking off the pipe connecting the intercooler to the inlet I noticed under it there was clear signs of oil running down it. Turns out a jubilee clip hadn't been tightened correctly. Tightening it up and the oil leak stopped but more importantly a boost leak I hadn't noticed was resolved.

The difference now when I get on the boost though. Holy hell, how had I not noticed this sooner? I guess I just assumed with it being a huge truck it was naturally slow. But bloody hell, I like having more whack. Sure she is still slow, but no where near as slow as she was.

Quote from Derv94 :crashed the arosa on friday coming back from alton towers. a low stiff car on skinny tyres + standing water and diesel patches isn't good news. hit a kerb and cracked my sump and subframe, bent a wishbone and snapped an engine mount

Tish, youths today, don't seem to understand how to drive for the conditions, not the speed limit.

Quote from Jakg :There wasn't any fuel getting to the engine, but I only wanted to get it running to drive it round the side of the house, I don't actually need the car to work so I gave up.

It is easy to work out where the problem is with fuel though.

Remove injectors form engine, with fuel lines attached turn key, does fuel come out?
If Yes, engine is getting fuel, problem is somewhere else.
If No, when turning engine does fuel come out of pipe when disconnected from injector?
If Yes, injectors need replacing
If No, disconnect pipe from whatever it connects to (I'd imagine either pump or filter), turn engine, does fuel come out?

Rinse and repeat, moving towards the fuel tank until you find the offending item. You could probably pinpoint it in an hour.

Quote from Jakg :Oh and also, manned up and started stripping down the engine on the Rover to see if I could find out why it wasn't working (it doesn't start)...

You did check the basics before you stripped it down right? Fuel, air, spark?

That oil over the plug could've been because someone made a mess when pouring, you have a failed gasket (on the camcover obviously) or the head or camcover has a crack letting the oil through. I assume you've checked for all of this. Also, it'd be worth checking oil level as we've had a car in that was filled to the brim with oil, which obviously wouldn't start but still cranked okay (that turned out to be an ECU problem and someone who doesn't understand what the check engine light means).

Oh yes, it has been run on a diagnostic programme right? You won't find a problem such as the ECU flaring up without having it scanned first. It can save you a lot of time.

Quote from [RCG]Boosted :does that get directly into the engine bay?
are these road legal?
questions over questions

i thought about putting an extingiusher in my car, but the small ones barely put out a cigarette...

We run them in our company vans. Our customers equipment is generally quite expensive (last delivery was nudging the 60k in gear). We don't have external switches to set them off, for obvious reasons, but have a big red button on the dash should we get an engine fire. It douses the engine bay and cab, but the back is untouched. I am currently looking at installing a system in my truck. Hope I'll never need it, but nice to know it is there.

Those silly handheld jobbies are just window dressing, they will suppress the fire enough to get people out, but your vehicle (and contents) is still going to burn to the ground.

Quote from Dennis93 :nope.

tired of seeing MR2's being 'kit car'd' into Ferraris, and fake caterhams everywhere..

real cars is the deal BOOOY

Someone who fakes an MR2 to look like a Ferrari is a massive queer and should have their drivers licence revoked. But Westfields are quality cars and a lot of them will out pace a Caterham.

Quote from BAMBO :Dennis, I am disappoint! We had quite a talk regarding this matter. You gave me the good ol' "kit car is not a real car" talk remember

Kit cars are more real than anything else (assuming your built it). The love that goes into turning a box of bolts into a rear car. Manly adventures. If someone else made it, then it is just a car and you're the ghey.

Not with a failing wheel bearing. When that lets go it will send you off the road. Offer her 3k as you'll need a few squids to get the bearing fixed. TBH, I'd also tell her to put steelies back on and knock off another 300, because my money is on those silly multifits being the reason the bearings are letting go.
