actually i figured i would change the pic on the advert from the one 30 mins after i picked it up to one after its been cleaned up

from this



to this, gotta love meguires lol

 

*bling*

 

Found this bugger in me garage this morning, its a whopper

 

lmao

will be laggy as hell

ive got 125miles on the rebuild now

being very,very carefull with it, tonight on the way back i actually let it go to 3krpm for a second or 2 before coming back down to about 2200 ish
dont think the throttle has been anywhere near the first 1/4 of its travel TBH

ive noticed the turbo sounds diffrent>? at low spool speeds
not sure if its the ported headers and the oversized uppipe thingy bob?

it sounds a bit like a new mini, before it makes its normal spooling noises lol

 

shiite, been found out.................thought i'd get away with the 1275 cooper lump!!!

don't ***** around too much you need to give it a little work................
alyn

 

"Smallest turbo I've seen"

 

But the spool up is so quick

 

ill be honest i have REALLY pussied about

although i have started haveing my "normal revs" at about 2500 to 3000 for changing up

i have not used any kind of fast acceleration or anything, scared incase i get the urge and put the dawse device back on
will promise to stop being a pansey

 

no worries, better get on with it.................Sticky ***** brings all the wrong images..........................!!!

 

dont for get the "snail trails"

 

Early Monday morning bounce

Mornin' Y'all

 

Mornin

 

morning

its going to be a sccccchhhhhhhhhooooorrrcher today

200 miles on the rebuild

need to travel down to Reading for the last ever time on the 27th of this month, do you rekon it would be best to get as many miles under its belt before then, or use the 660 mile round trip as part of the run in process?

not sure if sitting at 70mph most of the way there is a good thing or not?

 

Don't remind me, on nights at the mo and trying to sleep in this heat is nightmare

Last trip to Reading, your lass moving up here?
Personally I would use the journey as part of the run in, just do the usual and vary your speed along the motorway.......................................... .................................................. .................................................. ..............................................neve r exceeding the national speed limit of course
and keep the AA card in the wallet

 

yea shes finally coming back home

quite like the "free" life i have at the moment to be honest, plus her new place in sandyford/newcastle has NO PARKING OUTSIDE, and theres no ****en way im leaving the car 2/3 streets away outside sum randoms house , Alyn removed the dawse so its not running much boost, cant afford a AA special at the present time.

need to start saving for a mini moto

 

went out this afternoon, was getting stressed at stupid things, went out for a bit of a drive

pulled away from a roundabout
changed gear at approx 3k, exhaust gave a tiny little "pop"

it was like a newborn baby saying "daddy" for the first time
took it to 4k for the first ever time today, was low load and pretty brief

starting to get confidence that its not going to shat itself out if i go anywhere near the revs, i am crap at running in never done it before so i dont really know what im doing, and i hate not being able to do sumthing

 

Good evening from sunny North Shields

Unfortunately it's that MOT time of year for my '94 WRX.

Anybody recommend any garages in the Newcastle area that they have used?

Many thanks,

David

 

Mini moto's are mint

alyn

 

just seen a blue 99/00 turbo with the wierdest front end on a classic I have ever seen, parked outside the bus depot on Norham road. anyone's on here?

 

i saw it this morning

thought it was horrible myself, from the side it looked like a normalish blue scoob, and then i got to the front

not an impressive bodykit IMO

then again i like the factory style stuff really

 

re: minomotos

i fancy buying a cheap ebay ****ter and putting the lawmower engine in for a laugh
it revs its clappers off after me and dan "tuned" the carb

the piston is slapping a bit tho
do you fancy another rebuild alyn

how much to put a 2.5 short block in my lawnmower

 

I think he is a little bit busy at the mo Micky

Stevebt's car is giving him headaches lmao

 

car mapped know steve???
andy done the biz.............................

 

Yup car is mapped, pulls a lot better, feels loads quicker but since it was mapped everywhere i go i get stuck in traffic or behind a copper so i haven't really had a chance to test it.

I did set it away once at 11 o'clock on monday night, came off a roundabout in 2nd booted it, back end was all over the place lol it would never do that in the dry before

 

Morning all. Bit cooler today thank ***.

 

Happy Lunchtime everyone

Martin
