  1. Guys, Not sure if any of you have already seen this, but I thought I pop the link here anyway!!! Absolutely mind blowing! http://www.intensepower.com/inmottritsup.html
  2. that would be great, it looks like due to a blown turbo, I will be getting some stage 3 hybrids, so any info regarding performance and any other findings would be of interest. Cheers
  3. Not sure about how to check whether the Rad Cap has gone or not, but I think you should also be getting smoke from the exhaust if your BHG was leaking!
  4. I have been told that this is normally due to one of two reasons, a problem with the Rad, normally a duff Rad Cap, or something a little more serious, a knackered head gasket or similar!
  5. I to, use the same setup as Martin, but the car was run like this when I bought it, so I can't comment on any performance increase.
  6. A tad concerned with all the sexual inuendos today Justin! Anyways. about this roll cage! Do you have any pics?
  7. I had a job tightening the nut for the bracket to! anyway, Don't quote me on this, but this is how I understand it.......... The bolt on the back of the BOV adjusts the boost pressure slightly!?!? Anyone else who can give a better explanation will also be helping me! (NOTE: I never adjusted mine to find out!)
  8. mkiv.com have pics on the installation. I did mine and it is very straight forward, although I did have to bend the mounting bracket slightly to fit it in! I can post the pics if you want!
  9. Guys, I want to change the bottom hose on my radiator, what is the easiest way for me to get to it? I am assuming I have two options, one would be to remove the undertray the other would be to remove the fan? Any help/advice appreciated.
  10. guys, am interested in what I would need to upgrade/fit inorder to have a couple of stage 3 hybrids. Spec as at present.......... Blitz Dual solenoid boost controller...1.2 - 1.3kg/cm2 Blitz Multi speed turbo timer Blitz induction kit Blitz exhaust gas temperature gauge Nur-spec exhaust Water Injection Would I need a FMIC for instance, you get the idea, so hit me with the stuff I need!
  11. The quality is amazing Jules, not sure what I was expecting, but its definately a lot better than I thought it would be! Can I assume that the device you use, is a colour bullet cam? which I am again assuming you would need to plug into a normal video camera?
  12. Jules, The cam you speak of, is it a small thing you can mount outside the vehicle easily? If so I would be very interested in seeing some footage and hearing your comments on its performance. Cheers Lee
  13. Mine is aso, considerably lower than stock!
  14. Thanks matt, will give it a go!
  15. Guys, I have a new radiator top hose I need to fit, as my old one has begun to perish at one end. The only trouble is, I cannot find the bleed tap. I don't need to drain the system fully, although it would be nice, to freshen it up. Can someone tell me where I need to look or at least the best way to drain it. Cheers Lee
  16. Reply from Spit 'n' Polish: We do not do split rims. Thank you for your enquiry, but I am afraid we cannot help on this occasion Yours Spit & Polish.
  17. LOL! Thanks for the suggestions guys! Will let you know how I get on. Lee
  18. So do you have a suggestion for the best way in my find a leak to my bov? cheers, Lee
  19. Is there any way for me to reproduce the pressure as if I was driving the car? I have noticed that when the car is out of gear and I rev it, the turbos do not seem to spin up in the same way as when I am in gear! Is that clear as mud enough?
  20. Branners, Thanks, will certainly check that! crossing my fingers its nothing more serious!
  21. My BOV is about 4 weeks old! Its an HKS SSQV! I did however notice a few spots of oil residue around the exit of the BOV, not sure what this means either! Thanks for your help Alex, more advice/help appreciated! (from anyone!)
  22. So that would explain the louder whooshing noise? If it is this, is it something I need to get fixed at a garage NOW or will it be ok until I can get to a garage? (if you know what I mean!)
  23. Guys, On the way home I noticed that all of a sudden I was only hitting about 0.8bar, I know that this morning It was around 1.1bar! I naturally checked the boost controller and it hadn't been changed! I am also hearing a loud 'whooosh' type noise as I ease off the throttle at high revs! NOTE: Its a different noise than that of my bov! and its only appeared today! I have checked pipes etc and all seems to be ok, when I blip the throttle cable I notice that the intake pipe which goes off into the drivers side wing 'clenches' not sure if this is normal! Please help, as I am a little worried about my baby!
  24. Guys, I want to remove the front bumper on my j-spec and wondered if it is straight forward and whether any of you guru's could let me know the best way to do it. The only thing I am slightly worried about is the auto-spoiler! Any help would be appreciated. cheers Lee
