  1. +1 if your drifting or something possibly but if its running fine leave it. If you put a radiator which is too good it you might not get the car up to proper temp and waste fuel.
  2. shouldnt of taken it to nissan, you still think its worth the stamp? You should be using 5-30 or 5-40
  3. I personally perfer the old wheel you hard IMO they look much better but the rays are forged and are light so I know which ones i'd pick.

    a guy i knoe has a s5 with a 3l v6 diesel remaped to about 300bhp and god knows what torque and it kinda slides but then it doesnt drift its weird. agree though completly photoshopped.
  5. +1 the snow foamer is completly different. I4detailing for the snow foam gun

    i know the its usally a 60/40 bias but could a quattro drift though?
  7. Good guys but website prices aren't right. They say it was due to the exchange rate but I don't know.
  8. Me and jamZee have been left out
  9. People generally see a 6-11bhp increase throughout the rev range with all 3 pulleys lightened. Your making a heavy part on the car lighter and stronger. As the crank pulley spins the belt which drives the idler and alternator pulleys it's causing a parasitic drag on the engine. It's not making the engine technically lose power but it's stealing it before it gets to the wheels. Reducing weight on something which spins makes a big difference. So the car with gain power all through the rev range, be more responsive and efficient.
  10. Apparently a couple of hours diy Will take your weight saving up a notch buddy DBlock - will be in touch once the numbers are in I know that's what I was thinking, not only that but potential gains up front. You wouldn't need to map these puppies in either!! Oh man I must resist, I need to do some calculations. I think they are about a good 2.5kg lighter than stock which is a good gain. Like you said no remaping need and its making the car more effecient. also has the metal sleeve on main crank pulley for a positive seal which means you wont get a leaking main seal which you get on the cheaper kits. This kit is also fully balanced so even though I have heard it doesnt make a difference it wont affect how the engine runs or knock its balance.
  11. thats a pretty good car for the money £900 underbudget too.
  12. is it not the same engine?
  13. Cheers Tarmac, Just to let people know as Ive looked into these there are usually about £250-£300 posted from the US so a big saving here.
  14. it doesnt fall to bits as quickly True ive heard that the pumps are weak as they are made of plastic but unsure on that.
  15. Id be happy paying about £200 or even if I could jump in with the postage if you was ordering off someone who does the better pulleys. Will let you know tonight. Im sure Alex can supply the belts.
  16. What makes a kranzle better than a karcher or the likes? bar the power.
  17. Ive heard nilfisk is the best but I have a karcher purely for the amount of attachments that are readily available.
  18. If you could please mate, if its not too much hassle just to find out roughly how much AMS or KJRs would be? Im just going to fit them myself did it on my brothers car so cant see it being that much different
  19. Tarmac what make are these? Some people say there is any issue but it is usually caused by incorrect fitting.
  20. Stoooopid question. wouldnt be if you actually had any
  21. I've been looking into pulley sets, at the moment the only reasonably priced ones seem to be the underdriven ones. If the price was right I wouldnt mind underdriven
  22. how much sound proofing you need?
  23. Yes, get it uprev'ed. Makes if more effiecient and is the only remap solution going. Tell the RST, A/M or Jez to map it for economy rather than performance.
