  1. ah nice one yeah

    i already have a rolla intake and i was thinking of sending it to headtune to gas flow and polish along with the throttle body after x-mas

    i was thinking of using sum aluminum piping to make up a cold air ducting where be the best place to position the cold air duct to in the front so as not to affect low end power. my front end is stock if this is any help

    thanx 4 d input lads

  2. hello im interested in purchasing a bmc cda airfilter at the moment as i could possible get a second hand one a bit cheaper.

    the problem id that i am confused by their sizing of their air filters

    please bear with me as i need some else's ideas on this

    i copied this off their web site which gives their sizing for the cda filters

    The CDA filtering system is a cylindrical shaped Carbon Airbox containing a washable, regeneratable filter. Replacing the original filter box with the CDA one, the fresh air flows directly to the filter and is taken in by the engine through a flow switch with minimum load loss (patented system). The CDA Kit also includes a flexible aluminium tube (60 cm long) to connect the system to a front air inlet.

    The CDA comes in 2 sizes:

    Type 1 (70-130) is for engines up to 1600 cc,

    Type 2 (85-150) for higher levels.

    Each type is also available in the different diameters needed to connect to the engine.

    their sizing of say the 70-130 air filter is as follows

    there is a 70mm outlet on the filter with it being 130mm in length

    and the 85-150 being an 85mm outlet and 150mm in length

    now what i want to know is what would be the effect on the 4efe if a 150mmlong filter is used with a 70mm outlet as this is the combination i could get

  3. hi mate

    i have a koni adjustable shocks on tein springs and it makes a massive difference to handling over stock

    my car was very indecisive about where it was going on the road before these mods.

    also if you can afford it then i believe that the whiteline anti lift kit also makes a noticable difference for little money. this i can't vouch for yet but thats my mod for after xmas after my service..

    also a adjustable panhard rod is advised if your lowering it because it will help with the back end, bringing it back in line.

  4. since this is in relation to rev's

    ive been told that you can adjust the idle revs (when it isn't running wit the automatic choke) by a adjusting a screw on the throttle body..... is this true???

    and could someone point me where to look for this screw because i can't find it

  5. hey posted this on tgtt aswell but grateful for all opinions

    2 & a half months ago i changed my springs (a change of lowering springs, shocks were already koni adj's) and had the car's alignment done,

    prior to changing my springs i had a slight vibration coming up tru the steering. at the time it wasn't very noticable.

    but recently within the last month the vibration has become increasingly noticable

    the vibration comes up tru the steering wheel when doing 50-60 mph on a reasonable smooth road but if im at 65- 70 on all roads then i can feel it.

    i was wondering if anyone has any opinions on what could be causing this

    here are my 3 ideas

    1 bad alignment job

    2 worn track rod ends

    3 worn lower arm joints

    any ideas appreciated
