4RE Leather

If I could remember where I put the bit of paper with the hole measurement I would go and buy one.

I would but some bugger keeps pinching my oil !!

I agree Dan this is exactly what I have to do. I am not bothered about changing filters, It's the hassle of having to get them all the time. I am not sure of the size so I have to get it off to measure it. I may go for the piper cross one next what ever I do

Hi Darren. The stage 1 only has 1 filter. The stage 2 has 2 as I checked with GTM. I don't mind cleaning them. its just the positioning that could be better. I can't get to it myself without help or the use of a ramp. Thanks for the input I am much more in the loop now I actually hardly ever give it large ones. However Sunday was a Cannonball GT run out. Its more "Smokey & The Bandit" than Sunday morning pottering.

It gets cleaned out and then an air line used to make sure. When its thoroughly dry and the filter is orange again, only then is it re-oiled. As soon as its on you start it up and you can here the difference. And certainly when you drive you feel it

This guy has actually put the bhp rating in his description. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Golf-Mk4-2-3-V5-150-170bhp-Pipercross-Viper-Induction-Kit-/321473379796?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4ad94e7dd4

Ok I managed to get a reply from the guy on ebay. My question to him was, "Can you tell me what car you had it on and what was the bhp" He replied. " Dear onlysilverbits, Hi, Initially the kit was in a stock Renault Sport Clio 197 and then was transferred into a stock Renault Sport Megane 250. I now have a Citroen C4 for the family to be so will not be modding this... . Thanks for the interest - just wondering why that would change your decision? I also have 1/2 a can of Piper Cross air filter dirt retention additive that can be included. I then told him that they were bhp rated and that's why he paid £120 for his and the Ferrari ones (which look identical but must be bigger and constructed different inside are £550. This was confirmed to me just a few moments ago when a mate who tunes Ferrari's for a living rang me over another matterI have been looking for a 2nd hand one rated 500 bhp and above for about 18 months. But they are like hens teeth to locate.

I am going to reroute the pipework as it can be shortened. Darren B gave me a carbon funnel thingy that goes into the front bumper. so on the other side a connecot from the other end of the filter. I am guessing the inside of that can be changed as it looks really grubby. Thanks for the input folks. Wonder if the others who had the same GTM s/c fitted have problems.

Good man I am very serious its my wallet that isn't The only problem is the rating. A friend of mine fits them to Ferrari v12's to help them breath better. Hence its nearly £500. I need to ask him what car it came off. Thanks

I can't as its all enclosed. I will try and find some of the build. Its about where the left side washer bottle should be (looking at the car) As this was removed during the build. Encased under here. I can assure you that the person who fitted the inner wheel arch back on with a cable tie after supplying and fitting the body kit has been informed! Especially as it came off whilst on A3 nearly causing an accident. Jumping 350 was my pasenger at the tiem You have to take the left front inner wheel arch out and it still hurts trying to get your hand in. Even with the try off you still need to take the bottom piece of intake that the air filter is fitted to to get back in it. I am thinking now that the only option is a induction kit like this one. http://www.ebay.co.u...=item5d30bd18f5

It is a k&N I forgot to mention. It would not matter what I put in there the problem would remain. Its low down and when it rains the water comes through the open grill in the bumper which don't help.

As I said on a previous thread. When they go the seals make the brake fluid start to darken. Look for a black residue at the top of your filler bottle

Cone filter that came with the kit. you spray oil on it after its cleaned. Its done it again after 500 miles. Strange thing is It is protected from road & wheel shiiiiitttt by the steel undertray. There is so much suction there it picks up every little bit of crud. it needs relocating or a different system.

In and out of the phone jack socket lol

I think your headphone socket needs replacing Will. Not expensive to buy but very fiddly. Or the switch embedded in the socket that diverts sound from phone to ear piece may be jammed or dirty. 1st of all dip the jack plug of your earphones in some alcohol the same stuff you use for cleaning screens and components. Then rapidly push in and out 8-10 times and try that. If this does not cure it then a replacement socket is about £12 - £25 dependant on where you go. The cheap £5 ones on fleabay do not last long. Hope this helps

Let me know when you find a set as mine are the same. It's so dam annoying! Ta

Skyline version (4 seats)

You are a couple of hoses short and 400 lol

I have that set up and never had slipping belt.

Warm soapy water and elbow grease. There is no leather at all it just man mad fibre. Don't waste time buying stuff.

have you told him your the Night watchman

This is surely another candid camera question isn't it ?
