  3. as far as i can tell v-power is being replaced by a new bio type fuel same octane(99) but greener i think like tesco99 but the forecourt tanks have to be cleaned first thats why some stations are dry and some are not
    been told something like that too. A have been told there is a new chemical in the fuel. bio fuel brings unwanted bactiria into the fuel system and can cause problems
  4. Hello again am after some advice. I have fitted a 6k ecu out of an sti 2 import onto my uk v2 classic. The car will no longer get past 112mph is there something i can fit to remove this??

    Thank you in advance

  5. I'm just about to do a service on my 52 reg STi type uk and thought I'd check what the general concensus is.

    The car has just turned 80k miles and has been using 5w/40 Shell Helix Ultra (Fully Synthetic) for all of its life so far.

    Just thought that with the engine getting on in miles would I need to change the oil grade, or should I even be looking to change to a better make/spec of oil for this and future services?

    Cheers,

    Phil

    been using fully synthetic 5w40 in ma classic for over 2 years now and av passed the 100k mark and engine as sweet as a nut still

  6. I am going to drop off my bumper to be repaired and resprayed...I MAY have to use the car once over the weekend so is it ok to drive without it? Not only from a legal view but a safety point and also can it do any damage - I have a TMIC so thats not an issue.
    its illegal mate car is not allwed 2 bear sharp edges and u need 2 think about ur indicators and numberplate. If the police see a car without a front bumper on the road they will be on u like a shot
  7. car has covered 100k. the turbo was areplacement unit 13 months ago by the previous owner.

    the garage that fitted it dont seem to have changed the oil feed pipe!!

    not to worry

    used 2 work for renault mate this is a common problem. U Can get away with not changing the oil pipes but a would recomend doing it. make sure u clean out all the cooler pipe work or the car will just try run away with its self. Have u thought about gettin ur turbo reconed. Am sure at the dealers this was about a 1400 quid job to us

  8. heats in right place mate am all 4 helpin out people that are less fortunate. A think folks time would be better spent tryin 2 help u make ur idea better u know a little constructive criticsum. its good 2 see there are still people out there tryin 2 help others good on u mate
