  2. Seller is not being anal. Buyer wanted me to accept payment by Paypal from a third party as he was skint and sent to a non verified address. Wake up and smell the coffee mate. What f***ing difference does it make where the money comes from, as long as its hits your account?? - the fact that I dont get paid till the end of the month means I can get someone else to pay for it on my behalf. As far as smelling the coffee goes - dont patronise me - many can vouch for me on here Whatever
  3. I most certainly would not want this on my FI build until I knew a lot more about it. I think that I will just stick with my HKS Fcon Vpro and HKS Valcon for the time being.

  5. So you knew he was on here under a false name? What exactly are you implying ?
  6. I still run with the Kinetix SSV Plenum but as most of you will know I had to reweld the seams to try and keep it together, with it being stainless I could not weld myself so it had to go to a local specialist. Abbey have also welded it twice. There is no advantage with NA but as it is made of toilet paper then it is troublesome on FI with high numbers. It was only the seams that gave way as per the picture. The early ones were only fused together but I believe the later ones are welded properly but I have yet to see one. The advantage of the SSV to me is that it leaves plenty room for the coolant header and also loadsa room for the TB which as you will see is now cable, so there is plenty room for the butterfly lever, also access to the plugs is much easier. I also have an idle control valve welded into the underside of the SSV plenum. As you will see from the graphs below the SSV plenum certainly does it job but it does not like high numbers as only the other week I had it off again for more welding. If it lets me down again then I will definately swop it out for the Cosworth plenum which I have sitting here waiting to be fitted, in fact I would have done it already but it would mean another 1000 mile round trip to Abbey for a remap and I would also have to turn the TB 180 degrees so that the linkage is on the rear + the idle control valve would have to welded into the cast/alumium Cosworth plenum. I would also have to find another location for the coolant header. Anyway some pictures for you. These numbers are from the hubs and not the fly. Plenum ruptured along the top seam. How it looks with the SSV Cover Present set up
  7. Guys, I can now confirm that it fits the coupe as well as the hard top/coupe. I have just offerred it up on a 2004 JDM coupe with no issues. Cheers, Alex.
  8. On a personal note I have had dealings with this guy in the past and I have personnally met him at my home and we have also exchanged views on his FI build. I personnally have no issues with him what so ever. Maybe I was lucky. As Stew has said the report function is your friend.
  9. Same question, I keep getting pop ups to install but I have kept delaying. You first Colin.
  10. why else would they purchase approx 30 zeds from Ireland? Because they were soooooooooo cheap
  11. These do split but are not dangerous, so nothing to worry about. Sign of the times with garages trying to drum up business. If you really want to replace them then I have a pair that have only done 9000 miles that you can have but like I said, really no need to replace them.
  12. Another great result Graeme.
  13. Clutch slave cyl. and fluid replacement usually cures this issue. Parts in stock depending on model and VIN number. Pm me if I can help further. Cheers, Alex.
  14. You think so? I did not had the car from new, so I do not know if the suspension is like new or not... How can I check it? If the car still handles well and is sitting level and it passes its MOT then you have nothing to worry about
  15. If you like your present set up then why replace it ? I would be inclined to wait until it requires replacement. You might even get another 50,000 miles from it

    Bungs?

    Swings and roundabouts mate, I doubt if you would notice much change but the more noisy it is the mind somehow tells you that it is going faster

    Bungs?

    Bungs are what you fit into your rear tail pipes. They are a two minute fit and reduce the decibels.
  18. Who told you that. I would post up a link but I am not that churlish as that would jeopardize your sale. Good luck with your sale
  19. Once you have your issue resolved then you may wish to fit spacers to the rear sensors. Plenty available so no rush. If required just pm for details.
  20. You will find it in the Guides section under ECU reset.
