what front bumper?

Hello, I've been looking for a new front bumper for my rev2. I bought my car with a veilside bumper on it that had been smoothed in....it had a crack in it when I bought it, and after making the mistake of parking in a multistorey car park in Liverpool, the crack is now bigger! #-o ](*,) I want a ch...

Re: Turbo XS H-RFL dump valve

Does it really matter what exhaust you have? As the actual nsound from a dump valve happens when you release the accelerator, the revs and hence the majority of the exhaust note lowers in sound too, therefore making it easier to be heard by others on the road. :?: So, really, regardless of what exha...

Re: removing aircon - what about the belt??

Nice one.

So, belt, pulley and compressor all come off with no ill effects?

I thought the drive belt went around the compressor pulley?? :-k

removing aircon - what about the belt??

Hi, I'm removing my aircon. I am not personally doing it, its in my local garage and I've been asked to ask here, just to make sure. When removing the compressor, what happens to the pulleys that the belt is connected to? This page helps (http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17185&highli...

Re: blueflame exhaust

I've got one too. Can be boomy at 3,000 revs M-way crusing, but then it is s/steel after all. Sounds good at full chat, and friends/relatives know to put the kettle on when I get near their house. The build quality I think is very good - not a spot of rust on the silencers/ tail section in over a y...

Re: Comedy spoiler now off! Yey!!! *pics*

Camera angle.


In the first pics, it looks quite high because it was on 205's.

The last 3 pics (ones with the original spoiler back on), I had put 215s on the front and 235s on the rear. :wink:

Re: [Mk2 NA] Blueflame vs Mongoose

Got a Blueflame on my tubby (I know its not an N/A!..but) and its lovely. Nice burble and opens up well when accelerating. Flames too. Good, solid build. Fitment: it does tend to hang a little lop-sided without a small amount of modifying, but not really noticable. I was pondering between these two ...

Looks fine standard but with those skirts I think a single more open one would look better.
I think Rogue sell them.

Single vent would look good with those skirts too.
