i know alot of people say not to go down the fuel cut defender and fpr, why not though? just thinking of how to do mine, if got the same mods as you Kyran and im wanting to up my boost to a bar, but was warned away from going down that route...
-
nice, i take it that was a private road. lol. good times mate, what have you done to it?just wondering what mine wud be rufly with what ive done. i havnt bothered to measure mine yet as the front tyres are absolute shit.
-

u dont need reasuring, tell him hes a pansy for getting an auto aswell. i had to sell my fto asap because autos r awful. so boring.
-
youd have him to about 80 i reckon, standard the glanza is 6.8 to 60, someone wil correct me if im wrong so thats miles better than his 8.0 sec, also his weighs aboutt wice as much and its an auto. put some money on it because youd hamer him, p.s if the auto is similar to my old fto auto, the auto box drains about 20bhp.

will get some taken this aft. gona take the bar off soon, strip it down and spray it as the paint has started flaking off, got out in it to pick up the g.f's sis last night, was wet but it went round the roundabout awsum, well impressed, it doesnt roll at all. did find that my rear left shock has split though when i was fitting the arb, new one of them to order now,
-
not a bad result me thinks, think i may spray the plastic black, same with the plastic int back, juts the same black as the cd player surround and dial surrounds. the suns bin out for a while and ive managed to stay away from the beer for now so might get to see what the arb is like after all....
-
fitted the rear arb today in lovely sunshine, right untill the last bolt and it pissed it down so not had chance to see how much better it corners. very annoying, ive also got a massive hangover so im gona have to have a few beers to get over it so wont be taking it out for a spin anytime today, :'( just in the middle of re-covering my door cards to match the gt seats ive put in, just black material, will bang some photos up when finshed.
-
wats the purpose ov doing it?
-
was looking for some brackets for my rear arb, went outa his way to search at his dads, found me some and he doesnt even want a penny for them. massive thank you Rob, il get you some beers in at a show sometime,
-
futbus.com, 23 quid a dics to groove them.they can also supply the disc themself or you can send them to them. i must be bored.lol.
-
just had a quick look on ebay, you can get UN-grooved rears that are vented, cant find any vented and grooved ones, you could send them away and get them grooved, cant remember who does that but to be honest if you can find that out im pretty sure they could supply you a set of the rears allready grooved.
-
i had red's on my colt and fto, there pretty good, to be honest tho everyones raving about mintex mate so might be an idea to go for them all round, as far as discs go, not sure were youll find em.
-
i did mine on monda and noticed a slight diference, but mine wasnt too bad in the first place. look on the left of the inlet manifold, youll see a plastic thing bolted to the side with a plug going into it, thats your icv, take the plug out, theres 2 10mm bolts holding the icv in, take them off, pull it out of the inlet mani, then theres a pipe conected to the botom, take that off and its out, in the middle of the icv theres 4 little metal hooks pining the two halfs together, prize them away, i used a knife, then take it apart and youll see a little 'thing' in the middle, its about the size
-
prety sure the ep82 was quicker than a ep91. someone will tell you for definate but im not sure wether that was down to it being lighter etc or if it had more power.
-
i think theres sum le-way tho, ive gt a 45 et and 7" wide and mine dont catch the inner arch, no wer near, shud b fine with em mate.
-
just the tmic mate, i gta extra .5 bar when i fitted my rx7 tmic. there good for around 180-190 bhp. so depends what power youre going for.
-
just picked up my rear arb, found the fitting guide after an age of searching.lol. just wondered what you guys have set yours on for the road? i know the middle hole is ment to be for fats road use but do any of you run the hole thats ment for track? and if so whats it like? if it makes any diference im running standard shocks and whiteline springs. (didnt want coilies as yorkshire roads are no good with coilies) cheers guys.
-
