Re: [Mk2] [NA] I’m an idiot.

Hi Brian.

The cars currently at the garage just down the road, they suspect it's the voltage regulator too, the alternator is a bit anyway so I'm going to get a new fitted too. I'll let you know how it goes.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Re: My new Rev 5.

He was a retired chap who had a lot of cars on the drive, including a Gen 7 Celica with only 19K on the clock!! Because he was such a decent fella i didn't want to push him into anything. But, alas it worked out for me!!

Re: Rev 1 N/A De-cat.

Thanks for that, Am I right in thinking that the de-cat pipe is the same as the down pipe? (please excuse my ignorance.)

Rev 1 N/A De-cat.

Hi chaps, My car is a 91 UK car. What is the law on de-catting it? If it has one?

Also I'm looking to replace the whole exhaust sytem but I don't want to spend silly money nor do I want it to be too loud.....any thoughts / suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers
Steve.

Re: temp issues......help!!

I fiddled with the heater control to bring hot air into the cabin, this got the gauge to drop then when I slid the control down to cold the gauge rose a little but then slowly dropped as I progressed home.

Steve.
