V Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Best mod for me was bigger brakes with decent lines and pads, then HID's, then BPU in that order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim_1979 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 A bit off topic... I'm gonna get some spats/skirts and a spoiler, then go for bigger brakes etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim_1979 Posted August 5, 2008 Author Share Posted August 5, 2008 lol. Well I've been BPU with the stock brakes for a while now so I'm used to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodilx6 Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 how is the the clips can make a difference? I have 6 ready to install, but just bought them as the old ones just look like they could brake off. I thought it would just be a matter of ignition or no ignition... What am I missing?

merckx Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 A poor connection would give you an intermittent fault, I think the quality of the connection is related to how noticeable a misfire would be. If you unplug the connector itself and if the plastic bits including the white plastic piece break as the result of them becoming brittle this would mean that the two small female spade connectors won't be held in place correctly and when you plug it back into the coil pack you may get a bad connection. It's best to close gap in the female connector when you have access to them so you'll obtain a better connection with the male spades on the coil pack.

Jim_1979 Posted August 5, 2008 Author Share Posted August 5, 2008 Alot of my old clips just fell apart when taking them off. So no good. I also closed the gap in the metal connector part and made it as tight as possible. Job's a good'un. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
