    Cutting Out

    Even though i had turned off traction before i did it u say it would still kick in
  10. I have a tt new shape soop with standard pipe i want to change it to the style i see everyone with where it comes out slightly at an angle with about a five inch end. I hear everyone going on about decat pipes but i want to make sure what to do. Can i completly decat the exhaust an get a new system fitted or are there other bits i need to get because iv had it decated i know all about MOT rules that dont matter cause i will swap back for the day an where is a good place to go for this to be done i live in brentwood in essex so around this area. How much am i looking at for this to be done. thanks

    Cutting Out

    I went on a little loon out tonight an found some thing strange i went to do a dounut an turned off traction an put it on full lock an put foot down it span up an went almost full circle but then it cut power it was still running but no throttle after a few seconds it was fine i did this a few times an it was the same (most anoying when showiing off) its still restricted to 112mph an is a GZ tt on a k reg new shape can anyone tell me what it is so i can spend loads of money on tyres.
  12. I have a similar set mine are fox rs5 with chrome deep dish but my chrome isnt real its a sort of thin sleave made of metal that goes over alloy make sure its not the same or u will have trouble getting someone to do it i cant find any one i think u should ring blitz an ask if they know what u can do they sometimes have a company that repair there wheels
  13. Right i had the same problem no heat only one pipe was hot what i did was disconnect both pipes an i no i said dont do it but i did i put a hose pipe in the end that was hot an but a little bit of water through not loads or ul blow the matrix with the force. The reason u but it through the hot side is u have to back flush it or u will force the blockage tighter the colour will be red an brown which is the rust an dirt from the engine. Watch where the water goes cause the coils an plugs are near an u could cause ur self a misfire. As the water starts to flow it should after a while get faster u can turn up the preasure a bit to flush more then do from the other side an it should be all good As u can tell im a mechanic so ur in good hands let me no how it goes an watch the pipes they could be fragile after i did this today my heaters work great
  14. Hi im a tyre fitter an u really need to get these sunny budget tyres off your car they will handle badly an be noisey if you love your car u will stop drivin it until u get desent ones or one day it will catch u out an can say good buy to it. its a supercar not a budget car
  15. As for the heater matrix there are two pipes running through the fire wall these are the in an out for the matrix see if u can disconnect them an run water through it dont use hose pipe it can make it worse. The matrix can block up from silt an rusty water so flushin it through will help but make sure u bleed the water system after so there are no air locks.

    red button

    Right the red button with the jap words on it is so that u can take it out of park when the keys are removed it says all about this on the guys supra guide on the home page of the site its about 20 pages but its great information on everything that i wanted to know.
  17. Hi im a mechanic an just read your statement u really should have wider tyres on the back the mitchelin book at work states that 265's should idealy be on the back just thought id let u know which should give it better grip an looks better in the arches.
