how much have you lowered it by m8, was going to drop mine by 40mm, just hope it doesnt make the ride too harsh

 

New Carbon Spoiler, but what a total ar$e to fit!!!!!
Big Cheers to my mates

 

Have Carbon wrap'd both sides, one has been mint, this side has bubbled up TWICE now
Any ideas why it would do it???? no crap on the thing, was cleaned well b4 the wrap was applied.....

Any ideas chaps?

 

No idea at all but have some spare Carbon wrap if you want some

Tony

 

I'll take it off your hands Tony
Been wanting to wrap a few items on the interior mate

 

thanks tony but ive got an A3 sheet in my shop, so will redo it nxt week - Again
happy days!!!!

 

Big Thanks to Andy (lagamorph)

came over to mine to compare power levels of our cars, found out for sure mine is running like a dog! roll on Thirsday (new map - jgm!!!!!) Just got to syke myself up for the m25

 

Boost spikes ?? Common fault with bigeyes with mods and mods.

Tony

 

hum, just underpowered m8, andys bug hit 25 more than mine on one streatch can tell its def 60+ bhp more than mine!!!

 

Yes sounds a bit like 2002 STi boost spike. But JGM will soon sort it out. Mate had same thing put std airbox back on went like a rocket.

Normally peeps put an induction kit and dump vavle on without remap. This causes the boost to go over max permited boost in ECU. So th ECU cuts the boost back even lower. Hence less power. Early days used to fit restrictors in boost solenoid pipes to slow operation.

The standard induction box is good up to 420bhp.

may worth investing in a 3port valve. speak to JGM has more knowledge than me.

 

Cant have std box m8, got fmic..
Got a 3 port valve (Turbosmart with guage ), taking it with me just in case

 

New Wheels

Almost There

 

MM,that looks fantastic!

 

thanks m8

still got a few bits 2 do yet, 400mm lower springs on nxt week, better sound system soon, some guages would b nice oh and going to re wrap that friggin side repeater for the third time 2morrow keeps bubbling up, other side is perfect... wierd.

 

As the repeater is a recurring problem,why dont you just remove both repeaters and replace with a 3M carbon fibre insert?
I bought some a while ago and they looked really good

 

I am going to give it one more go 2morrow, and if it does it again will admit defeat!!
where did u get your inserts from m8, and did they cost u much?

 

Stand by,I'll have a look!

 

nice one ta

£36.74.I did originally buy some proper c-f inserts that you had to stick in place with some pva black sticky stuff-absolute nightmare and looked gash.
Was a bit unsure of the 3M stickers as they were, well stickers!
Pleasantly suprised,looked good and filled the space nicely

 

nice one m8

will go this route if it goes pear shape again 2morrow...

Thanks again chap

 

Car looks stunning Dave

 

Thanks m8, took a while to get there, off to london 2morrow to get simon (JGM) to work his wonder on it then im broke, so next big mod wont be till next year

Cheers again m8, appreciate all comments

 

No problem mate Andy did mention that he'd popped over to see you and the difference in your cars was massive

 

i know m8, the diff was nuts, his was soooo much faster than mine

roll on 2morrow just not looking forward to the m25 in rush hour

his car is a credit to him btw.... very very nice..

 

yeah can't say I blame you wanting to avoid the m25 and I couldn't agree more with his car being a credit too him it's one of my favorites on the whole forum (although I'm probably slightly biased as he's my best mate )

 

Hi all, just a quick message to everyone.....

I have been talking with Rob and given the response we have already had regarding our first meet we have both decided we need another one or two guys to help run the new club, if anybody fancies getting involved please pm us and we can have a chat..
like we have said before, our main aim is to have fun and enjoy ourselves...

Thanks all and we look forward to any and all replies.

 

Update re. Club...

We now have a third Chairman

So if you fancy having some fun running a club give us a shout, but be quick as we are only looking for another one person....

 

Help please.....
