insane clown

yeh don't use low octane fuel, you'll get det and not do any good, i got mapped for v power, and 100 miles not going over 3000 rpm i'd do £20, average about 19mpg, car for me is no good for work ..so bought a deisel van which can return anything up to 70mpg (1.5 td combo ) i was low on deisel thursday so i wiped the frying pan out and diluted it with some blue bottle pi55 and it got me to work not really

apexi info some of you may have found similar.. just incase though it's well worth a look,.. oh yes..it takes a while to read completely mark

had to use total earlier coz i left it too late and that was 115.9 !!...only put a tenner in..just enough to get me to shell in morning.. and why is tesco now the same price as shell?!!... gonna get car re-mapp for terps substitute i think.

you got some good advice there me old friend, ..oh welcome to the club matey! i'm going to honest.... this is the most reliable car i've had barring my vw tdi passat, the money i've spent has been on brainstorms and catching the BUG.. beware as for insurance..a lot of us use keith michaels, ask for gary moulson..(moley-wrx i think he is on here) he's numbers here somewhere, i pay £360 fnc at 34 on a modded uk wagon. and fuel. well, i mainly use b roads and just lately quite slowly, i range from 170 - 220 to a tank.. hence why i'm getting a diesel for work now, i service me self, easiest car i've done a service on tbh, plugs are a pain though mark

i'd say defo yeso to re-map very soon... still use it yes no probs just i wouldn't drive it tall untill re-map.. but your going the right route though mate, should get some good figures, remember your mines ecu will be quite aggressive, it's a jap one so it's mapped for 100ron, use booster if you can with v power, i recon you'll get some bangs and pops with it too i had a zerosports ecu and was similar to yours... i had all the work done then got an apexi power fc..... £460..then re-map.£250.. 311bhp uk wagon.

i can't get any joy with upgrading from shell club card to the v power one, they say do it on tinet....buggered if i can find the bit where you click on how long did it take you to get your first reward then david?...how much you spend a week? .. and btw..it's 111.9p here now (clacton-essex) mark (on the verge of getting a diesel)

can't quite see properly but have another look if you will..... abs is a alloy looking rectangular unit only about 4-5 inches long with micro bore pipes coming out of it... and can be a pain in the ar5e... tempremental things

previous driver may of had a dvd monitor screen or similar, which would turn off while driving ?..ain't got a clue how they wire up so.....

OZ superleggeras 17"

i had 22mm adjustable arb's and alloy links front and rear, all whiteline. my geo settings were close to prodrive anyway.... need to get checked again though

funny you say 'lane way'!!!.... 3/4 of my journey to work is down twisty turny B road, love it untill you catch a 30mph'er

hello matey, welcome to the club, glad your enjoying scoobyship yes..wave at every scooby you see.... even the oap's in 1.8 gl's 200 miles to a tank is a good average i think, i only got 176 last week time to get a diesel for work

hi matey, nice classic there, having fun in the snow i see.....we used to get snow...the goverment blame de-catted cars for global warming.......sh!t happens....

hi mate, i had lowered springs previous which were -30mm then changed my whole set up for prodrive and eibach combo, i felt the same as you mate!!!... that little extra higher doesn't look quite right... better for speed humps though. have a look on my profile ..i'm sure i've got old piccies with lower set up and a recent one (with the front mount fitted) with eibach springs fitted. i think they are only 20mm lower than standard, they might settle a bit too. mark

my my96 uk wagon states super unleaded, but jap octane rating is different to ours so min of 95 ron was ok... untill added mods now no less the v power or tesco....but mine plays up with tesco 99 !!!???... nothing major...most of the time anyway

i see you have met before then kaz welcome to the club, any piccies of your motor mark

LOL...i only meant to say hello you ok matey? .

alright mate?... looks like your getting love sick looking at those, you take pride in the motors, really nice classic there TT don't look right with the plate on is the gb270 arriving then?... keep us posted.. mark

yeh don't get down hearted mate, it's very possible you can have a supprise, i can't give you any clues coz i'm 34 and have full no claims, but i pay £360 for a modded uk wagon, would of been £294 if it weren't for the mods declared...only tpft by the way .... i use gary moulson @keith michaels, cheapest i found well worth ringing him matey, i'll put the number up if no-one else beats me to it, as for running cost,.... 200 miles to a tank on average for me, 23 mpg if i don't boot it. 19 at most if i do. regular visits to shell garage they can be very reliable motors, treat with respect to achieve this though, i use mine every day for work and i've never had a break down since i got her back in aug 04, got 155000 on it now and now pushing 311bhp...(replacement engine 10,000 ago ..started fresh being as i was modding) it's all the silly a***s out there that fook it up for the bona fida drivers, you get enough attention just driving at 30mph.... all you get doing over the limit showing off are more boy racer tags which are not needed. so there you go.... get a quote, sum it all up... behave and enjoy. >>> try these numbers,,ask for Gary moulson @ keith michaels.....02082880275 02086427868 08450138231 one of those is the direct number but they'll put you right,...he's very busy too

i will shoot them

gary @ keith michaels does me too,

hey you!!!... we ain't THAT close used him since i've had the scoob, 2004.... as for those 'prices'

he didn't own it but it was in his garage more than it was on my drive, it did bang pop and spit flames....not so much now though ... i'm only in clacton on a thursday now so seeing me would be rare. andy did have a green wagon at his last year, got most of the bits on mine now

king hell!!!....bet he don't do many

hi mate, yes really nice motor... wheels are lovely, wanted those before i got superleggeras. good to have an unmolested car .... nice one... do what you have to do but properly.... mark
