  1. I knew someone that had one and his one caught fire about 4 times beacuse of engine heat oh and his electrics sometimes worked and sometimes didnt.
  2. I got my P60 yesterday and i know i am due a tax rebate (due to being out of work for 7 months) how do i go about getting this arranged with the tax office. The money will more than likely go on some parts for me soop. (getting it to full BPU) hehe
  3. Finaly a nice cool sunny day to clean me baby Did a Maquires Full 3 Stage treatment on her - Paint cleaner, Polish, Wax, full interior clean, nice !!.
  4. when it comes to replace my restrictor ring where is it? Sorry i am newish
  5. How Would i tell if it had a FCD. When i was repalcing a fuse the other day i noticed a small switch on a lead down where the fuse box was on the drivers side of the car. Now i dont know what this does would this be a switch for a FCD i know its a shot in the dark but hey. If i needed to find out if it had one where most likely would i look?
  6. Pm'd the guy with the restictor ring. So all i need now is a FCD a Set of Plugs and a pump :-) happy days
  7. oh i see, how much power do you reckon on a 1.1 bar and a 1.2 bar BPU setup then. Where can i get these parts cos i want to do this soon
  8. where do i get the 1.2 bar ring ? Sorry i am newish not to up on the abbriviations Whats a FCD Thanks for the Plugs and pump
  9. If i want to increase the boost do i still need to have the restrictor ring in and get a boost controller or do i need to remove it. Also when i increase to 1.2 bar will i need to get the ECU remapped
  10. Ok boost controller is good, what plugs do you reccomend, where can i get the fuel pump, i want to increase the boost to 1.2 bar is this safe for the j-spec tubbies they have done 100,000km now.
  11. Right ok, I have had a Double Decat Turbo Boosts around 0.9 bar I have a boost guage.
  12. No i didnt know that they have a bad reputation what have they done ? Does anyone else do that kit then ? is that £150-175 each or for the whole lot ?
  13. Shame you are not in the south of england, a place called micheldever tyers near winchester do laser alignment properly and if you want they can do any suspension setup or subframe setup you want...and they know what they are doing.
  14. I am looking to upgrade my tubs and am looking at this kit. http://www.suprastore.com/blitkt3twint.html I was thinking of selling my J-spec tubs and wondered how much i should sell the Turbos and the manifold for as i have no idea. The Car has done 100,000km and the turbos spool fine and still have all blades, and boosts quickly and freely. What do you reckon ?
  15. have gapped your sprak plugs correctly ? if the gap is to wide it wont fire properly, failing that fit the old parts see if it starts if it does, replace the parts bit by bit to find out what the issue is.
  16. Woo hooo, i got engaged last night, popped the question overlooking a lake after an italian meal, im well happy
  17. Bin and buy some new They are ruined
  18. I did try and dos a search but perhaps i put to much info in. Sorry
  19. What the advantage of having a big single over big twins?
  20. I have been without mine for 4 months !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Should ge tit sorted next month meanwhile i am driving a white pug 1.1 trio.
  21. I always say.... If you want to do something big....do it right No point in scrimping on cost getting a TT engine to get it run 700-800bhp it wont last long perhaps seconds and yes you will loose all the money you put into it. If you want an engine to run 700-800bhp put the money into it dont bother scrimping. If you cant do it cos you cant afford it then dont do it cos you will loose the money you spent when it goes pop and throws the con rods through the block. A Standard TT engine may reliably run 400-500bhp without many problems but not 700-800bhp.
  22. what is the bumper on the gray car ?
  23. lol my supe is in for repair at the mo as well i have a 1991 Pug 309 1.1 for a runabout and guess what its in white to with Green seat belts and a green go faster stripe !!! - but i am thinking of removing that cos of the power to weight ratio lol
