  11. thanks mate so far im thinking they look better how they r currently although the vibrant red/orange and pinky/purple colours looks pretty cool
  12. hi could you try some different wheel colours if possible black electric blue gunmetal and anything else you are willing to try out
  13. Well its been a while since i have added to my build really, currently im trying to stock pile parts to get it ready for hybrid turbo, tuning developments fuel pump racetech braided oil feed ct9 wanted : fmic with hdi pipe routing or hdi fmic Recently had a go at cleaing my engine bay up as it was gettin little dirty: Before: After: And few recent pics:
  14. been from a drive and shes sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!! so no worrys thanks for your replys
  15. lol yer im definately a panicker haha ok ill give that a go i havent tested it today so you never know it might be ok
  16. i have been googling it and they says its bad like the plugs could rust to the head, and isnt a misfire bad for the engine like oculdnt this cause det?
  17. yeah i no but some places u just cant get to without removing tons of stuff so i used pressure wash done a good job and the pics are off i phone but has made a real difference especially after my rad coolant incident
  18. is this bad to drive like this and will it not just clear up on its own? i dont see how water could be in the plug well as the magnecore leaqds have a real good fit, but im sure i attacked the dizzy with the pressure washer will that just dry out on its own? what do i need to do people?
  19. just googled this and seems quite shit what ive done lol, so i need to remove the plugs and get the water out somehow? now i think i may have sprayed the pressure near the dizzy cap and rotary arm i have not changed this on my car yet and if it s soaking wet i think i may as well chnage it is it hard to do?
  20. yeahi htink is water in the plugs so what do i do remove the ht leads and wipe a cloth in there or what lol haha? im useless with cars
  21. Cleaned my engine bay up to day i covered all electrical with plastic bags and tape, i degunked the engine bay and engine and used a pressure washer to clean it off. it started and drove fine untill i got home and was misfiring and wouldn go on to boost without juddering and spluttering. now i think it may be water in the plug holes will this dry out on its own or do i need to check n e thing ? what do you think i could check and what do you recommend i do ? on a positive looks real nice in the engine bay
