Spill

Hmm - if it were that easy. I put a Sunday aside a few weeks ago to just dremmel out a hole, but as far as I could see from looking side on when opening/closing the bonnet the movement of the strut requires a whole channel cut in it. Spill - what did you have to cut? Can you take a picture and post it up? Sorry about the quality only had my camera phone, I'll take some better ones tonight. How to Push rod inside the damper leaving approx. 75mm showing Remove the covers lay the damper along the the cover with the ball joint located in the centre of the hole, the damper part should then be just off the cover (I'll take measurements) Draw around the damper and rod this will then give just enough clearance for the bonnet to close. FINAL STEP COVER THE DAMPER WITH BLACK HEAT SHRINK PLEASE Oh then refit

There's not enough clearance when the stuts fold down, as stephen mentioned the only way is to cut the panels I used a dremel, works a treat.

I wish, won't be done until after 25th Feb, ain't got the time. But by then I should have tested the solution, I'll let you know

Can't say whether it was hydrolocked or not, but there was lot of water in the cylinders and at least a pint came out of the exhaust thingy outlet (the mesh bit where the exhaust joins the CATs) I think the reason it was saved was I was going so slowly and dropped the clutch when I realised what was going to happen. It definitely wasn't the MAF sensor that tripped the engine but the sensor did put up the engine check light (garage claimed it was dirty ) Grit wise I changed the oil three times over the course of a week, filter twice, and there was a fair bit of sand in there, cream froth and on the first change there was about a cup full of water. I think i was just VERY lucky, personally I wouldn't recommend anyone using that type of filter in this country, it's not worth the hassle and TBH I thought it was crap, stock is far better but a lot louder at 5000rpm Oh with the Invida.

I think I have a cure

here I meant Spill btw not you stephen Wrong title but never mind, glad to see that the change over to your new site hasn't changed you in anyway V I'd been the guinea pig on the hydrolock thingy but this time I do at least want to try and get SS box to work before I spend any more dosh, but got to say I'm tempted.

glad to see you got the connection sorted, Where do you get the software from to program the Split Second box? oh please cover those tein struts green just doesn’t suit, Heat shrink before anyone asks

Do you keep your clothes in the garage and your car in the house Invidia - don't know much about this - but true dual is good is this the VERY LOUD invidia (which I think is G200?) Edit -> G200 from your post doh LOL it was just somewhere to dump the thing, have tried going to the tip in a zed nah it's the quite one the N1's

Talking with a tuner in Brum yesterday, he said that American maps and in particular vortech are prone to fuel problems as the standard map is set for 100ron petrol, I couldn't comment on what he said as TBH I don't yet understand (I will though) so if anyone can confirm or not, I'd be interested to find out if this guy knows what he's talking about because I may try him to tune it.

I've got my replacement car now so installation will start after a trackday on 24th February and a dyno run on 25th.

Exhaust I've got a true dual invida G200 which I hope will be up to it, and a couple of kinetix cats on top of the wardrobe (in the garage)

so with gauges we can see whats happening to the car in realtime, I know this is a dumb question but why do we need to know?

Yes please

PM sent

Cheers guys much appreciated so Larger oil pan One step colder plugs Gauges - Zeitronix is that the one with the LCD display? Auto sport harness and possibly clutch flywheel 275 tyres??????

Hi All Just need some help on FI, I've decided to DIY the Vortech but at the moment not totally sure what else I'll need either to install or once it's running, BTW I know absolutely nothing about this subject. 1 - Connecting the brains, should I use a separate harness I think someone, Steve perhaps used an autosport thing ? 2 - Gauges are they required and what do they do? not many questions but there's got to be more answers and things that I've missed

I may have a set of HPS pads for sale Price no more than £130 for the set Basically I've ordered HP - Plus but I've had delivered Fronts HPS Rears HP Plus Now I can either send back the HPS's and have HP + in there place or I can order another set of mixed pads and sell the HPS, it's your call pm me if anyones interested

If ther eusing a connector that could be the problem, they don't work the same everytime it's something to do with the usb port converting to serial data, i'm that technical but i do have limited knowledge. We program object detection radars through a serial port and can only do it through a direct serial port connection on a laptop if we use either the usb or pcimca(whatever it is) we get corupt data every now and again and the systems fail, as a way of eliminating this try using a pc with serial port, it's just one possibilty.

Is the connection to the serial port direct? or does it go through a usb or pcima connector?

yep and I'm still me

Just wanted to say hello and Happy New Year to you all, now I've found you. and ....... I agree and disagree, the original vision Tim Burners-Lee had for the internet was to provide a free source of readily available information for eveyone to share, but running websites cost money and the more popular they become the more they cost. all the best Pete
