  4. I'll jack it up later and have a look but there's never any oil or anything on my drive where my cars been, had a bit of a look on google and that and another thing i read it could be the PCV valve?
  5. I know it's a 17 year old engine with 125k on the clock but it's burning oil more than i'd expect, was half way at the start of the weekend and I just checked it a minuite ago and it was on empty on the dipstick. Just filled it back up again gonna see how long it lasts this time. Just worried as a mate of mine told me it could be bottom end related so yeah... Don't know if it's just where the engine is old etc. or something needs fixing Been using Castrol 10w 40 as i was recommended and was serviced last month. Any help would be much appreciated guys
  6. Mate of mine left a 'Limited Edition' Corsa in the dust in his N/A and the kid genuinely went and got his dad to buy him a 1.6 1 series beamer and my mate still beat that, haven't seen him since :') Another reason why i wanna get a GT or a V, don't even have to try to beat things :L
  7. So i know the N/A Starlets aren't the most powerful things on the road but they can hold their own, what has happened to me the last couple of days is cocky 17 year olds that i remember from school in their parent bought 15 plate fiesta's and Corsa's trying to race me and have me off the lights etc. and every time i've left them in the dust and wipe the smile off their face and i find it way too funny at the moment. Just thought i'd share that with you all.

  13. Been looking around at a lot of different waxes, at the moment i've been trying a few to see what gives me the best results just want to see what you guys think is the best wax, so far i've used Auto Glym Aqua Wax Meguiars Ultimate Quik Wax Meguairs Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere Simonz Original Carnauba Wax Juicy Details Podium Wax Turtle Wax Smudge Wax Turtle Wax Liquid Wax So yeah, at the moment i think the Juicy Details wax is the best but want to know if anyone knows of anymore wax they think is good
  14. Cheers guys, only assuming the 4EFTE and the 4EFE nuts would be the same but what about a PCV valve as mine seems a bit loose and i think that's where all my oil is going :L

  20. I Will put a video up to show what is happening So i was driving along today as normal and my engine started to bog out so I pulled over, turned it off tried to start it again and i think it's really badly misfiring so i call my breakdown and they say it might be the fuel/fuel pump so i got towed to a garage and they said that it wasn't anything to do with the fuel pump and it was the spark plugs causing the problem so they changed them i drove it out of the garage and back home no problem but i went to drive it earlier and it starts happening again? I took the dizzy off and gave it a good
  21. Sounds a bit daft but can someone post a pic of where the bolts are?
  22. I've had GT seats for a while and i've never noticed it until now (Now that it's failed it's MOT ) don't know if anyone else has had this problem and knows how to get it moving again? Or would it just be worth it to stick the standard seat back in for the MOT? Any help would be appreciated
  23. Think i might find someone to do it for me then, by the sounds of it i'll cock it up somehow and blow my engine up :') Any of you guys know anyone in the Bristol area that could do it?
