Ultimate solution for extra power...

Just found this...

Have decided that for £20 odd, the 5% power increase is a bargain! ](*,)

Re: Window button

Its not standard to have an auto-up feature, for some reason they only have auto-down.

However, the super electronics man Jimi has a mod you can do to make it have both if you wish... if only i can remember where the guide is...

Mixture screw

Have just tried adjusting my mixture screw and it just turns freely without stopping. I figured that this is not good, so i have got a replacement from the scrappy. Only problem is that the connectors are different between the Mk1a and Mk1b. Can i still use this screw on my mk1a, do i just need to c...

Re: New Modification

Legend! Jimi is the king of electrical mods. =D>

Is there a wink mod where one of the lights goes down, then back up at the touch of a button? Not sure myself, but my mate swears he's seen cars with it and it could be fun. 8)

0-120mph in 3 secs! In a Mk1? If only...

Just found out the reason for my lack of power under load... my gearbox has had it.

Doesn't stop me finding out how fast an MR2 can accelerate with almost zero load on it!

Not a tubby or charger in site that can beat that!! \:D/

Re: for those interested....

This is excellent news! I have a spare nitrous kit that is coming off of my VW daily driver (an experiment with a solid 2l 8v block that went very well) and look forward to using it on my mk1 when it is running properly. :twisted: Cant wait. Mong.. do you use a progressive controller with WOT switch...

Re: Help - what should my oil pressure reading be??

My mates previous two mk1's, and my current one hold steady at around the half way mark, and then rise to a bit above, sometimes up to the 3/4 mark when under load (givin' it some beans!).

So it sounds pretty normal to me.

Re: strange

That'll be the HAZ fuse in the fuse box in your engine bay. Just get a new one.

I did the same thing, so don't worry about it!

Another window problem...

PLease help me. [-o< My passenger window has stopped going up. It has been struggling since i bought the car, but just as the april showers started, it got stuck half way down. The switches on the drivers side and passenger side will both lower the window further, but neither will raise it up again....
