  1. One thing i've never had an inclination to do and that is inspect a camels crotch... I've looked at a few camel toes in my time but never a camels crotch.... [] Bit of a tangent here What if the Camel had spotted a sexy female camel and was now moist with the anticipation of some camel action Good Luck Zed
  2. Damn decent guy Lets hope this one can stand up to the Blade engine screaming its nuts out
  3. Wee run back from Alford on Sunday is the thing that is tempting me, looking forward to trying this Cairn O Mount Road
  4. Watch ol Bandit run now Good result there boss
  5. Dont think they do an Apexi Filter for the Newage cars Yes a Newage car would defo need a remap when fitting a Induction kit
  6. I know what your final gearing is going to be and when mapping i will make a big huge dirty mess in the back seat for you Colin
  7. Now, there's a man who knows what he's talking about! Tony the Tiger taught me everything i know
  8. LOL Guilty as charged My first experience was seeing McRae through a Legacy into the bushes at Grizedale in the early 90's then seeing Bertie Fisher in the Manx the same year.
  9. If it is a std ECU then just be satisfied with a STI panel filter available from ASPerformance. The V3 STI is pretty agressively mapped from the factory, nippy booger is it not, so just keep her std and she will see you good for many a mile too come. When funds allow fit a Apexi Power Intake cone filter as this is the best for flow and filtration, decat down pipe, uprated fuel pump and plugs and fit a mappable ECU at the same time and get it mapped by god, www.andyforrestperformance.co.uk , the result will be reliable 320 hp and similer torque. Cost for this transformation is in the region of 1000 of your earth pounds. until your disposable funds reach this level service her with 10w/60 oil or 15w/50 if you are going to track/drag her every 3000 - 4500 miles and use a STI panel filter. AND FOR GOD SAKES DO NOT FIT A DUMP VALVE, the std one does the job more than well enough, if you really want the whooooooosh noise fit a soda stream to your pax seat and have the benefit of a refreshing drink whenever. Your engine and bank manager will thank you in the long term. Hope this helps Rats ar$e out of a drainpipe
  10. Mr Badger, I touch goats with my mobile number Bry, cheers mate i will keep that in mind if i need a look see
  11. Also try Japcar in Hythe http://www.japcar-uk.freeserve.co.uk/ Got an engine from there in the past and also one for another member on here and both are still going strong. Think it was about 850 delivered
  12. Yes block them off for the moment. It is possible for the Directional valve to be leaking I really need a look at a MY98 to remember how it feeds the air around that part of the engine, where are you from?. The Carbon Cannister is not crucial to the running of the engine and can be removed safely, the directional valve is there to stop you blowing positive boost down the hose and pressurising the fuel tank.
  13. 2 belts behind the rad are for the Alternator and Power Steering on one and the Aircon on the other. The Alternator/Power Steering is the larger of the 2. Unless of course your car does not have Aircon then the only belt you see is for the Alternator/Power Steering. The lock off for the adjustment is 90degrees from the adjusting bolt
  14. Far from crude sir On the right ines, -480hg is in the ball park for what is needed That means the pipework between where your finger was and the manifold is gas tight. So the problem lies between the MAF and the Directional valve/Carbon Cannister
  15. I will take the Winfield car
  16. The pipes Subaru use are very brittle. They may look fine but you really need to put them under vacuum conditions to check them properly. The drop of 300hg says to me that it is quite a large split somewhere
  17. Best day at the Hill in ages, weather was pants then it was great then it was pants then it was ok. Gobstopper was awesome both static and in motion The Autosprtif car was stunning and the old man still kens his way roon the Hill Zen car was way tooooooo quiet Dynamix, loved the showboating in the rain My Yellow wagon looked good on the stand and was used to great effect in both a cooking capacity and a spectating capacity Great turn out for the SIDC Can i get a wee shot of your trike mate, that looks like a great invention. Will it fit my bed for the purposes of getting to work in the morning and i told you i would get your mate out on the track i hope he enjoyed it Loved this RS2000 Loved this bike helmet Bloody knackered, have really sore legs and have dribble stains all down the front of my jacket from seeing Lord James of the McRae
  18. I will pass the regi on to the guys in my work. Hope you get it back soon, nice and safe
  19. Seen your other half there snapping away. All these accidents and the Accident Attractor was not there....................unusual Great pics Neil and Kenny
  20. Sounds like an air leak at idle The filter you are showing is a Carbon cannister, it traps fuel vapour Not sure about the UK98 as i have a JDM 96, mine has only 2 coming off the Carbon Cannister and i am not sure where the 3rd one goes but it sounds like a hose is split between the manifold and the Cannister. A split pipe coming off the manifold to show less of a depression reading on the Commander if it after the throttle body. At idle it should read in the region of -550hg so your -200 odd is showing air is getting into the manifold area through somewhere and more than likely it will be via a split pipe
