Default A few decent pics of the Type 20

After the blast this morning, it was looking a little sorry for itself. Thought I'd give it a quick wash, which turned into a full 5 hours with the machine polisher

It scrubs up quite well



















And a couple of Rich's

Well, I got it over Strines and back in one piece

Tbh, found it a little twitchy over Strines, but then I'd not played with the AST's, think they were set fairly hard. As far as car's go, its flipping awesome. Not played with the DCCD yet, going to get a feel for the car before I start playing with that

Will pop down one night this week with it, and give you back the stuff you left in it

Oh, whats the switch do on the dash, next to the I/C water spray? Does'nt seem to operate anything, but a little red light comes on when I flick it

OMG!! He's pressed it.. I told the guy.. NEVER... EVER press that switch. So Si presses it. No wonder the Global economy has crashed.... press it again mate... Normal service will be resumed shortly... Phew. Global catastrophe diverted!



One's to turn the Intercooler spray to auto.... the other one is the manual spray... press the manual one when stationary, end engine off and you should hear a faint screen spray type noise and possibly a whiff of steam from the scoop.

If you take a look under the bonnet, you'll see a small hoze and nozel set up... when the bonnets down... that sprays the IC...



ps.. regarding things left in.... if there's any knickers....
1. They aren't mine
2. They're not my colour
3. They'll be too small... allegedly.
4. I don't know any girl called Samantha... OK?

Just back them right off.... and start again... I found 6 Front and 4 back suited me... But starting at 1:1 will give you months of experimenting....

As for the DCCD. You wont notice anything until pushing on. I felt it balanced the car loverlly when a few notches up to the start of the Amber zone... In the rain, and on the motorway I always put it on as the common theme is it will help balance the car under some heavy braking...

Just play with it... remember to turn the damn thing to Auto when around town as a locked diff when going slow into a corner will feel and sound like you're driving in treacle or ripping the suspension off.... I know from experience...

Backed them off all the way to soft yesterday afternoon, then put 6 on the front, 5 on the rears - will see how it goes. Seemed okay last night, but did'nt really push it, as the tank was nearly empty from the run out

Will have another play at the weekend. With regards to the DCCD, I presume you can alter this on the move?

Managed to figure out what the other switch does too, I presume its the rear fog light with it been an import?!

158....... you want trying that much then....

Si,

You could set it up at cadwel.

And i find if the dccd is set to the 2nd from rear or green i get better mpg.


On track its set all the way back to the green/rear


And to drag it needs to be in lock and roll off at the end before turning.

But you will find the best way to find out is play with it.. the dccd that is

Dave
