Warning Lights?
Any idea what may be causing these warning lights to come on. They weren't on this morning driving to work but came on on my way home. Ruined my night because I was off out after work but ended up having to come straight home because I was worried about turning it off and then not being able to get ...

Re: Have N/A converted or Import Turbo?
Yeah reckon the issue is in finding a decent turbo that's not been hacked to death. I purposely bought a UK car that was totally UK original, then had it converted. I could then ensure that all the parts that needed replacing in the engine were replaced (such as crank bearings), and get some upgrade...

Doesn't want to rev past 6000 RPM
Had a turbo conversion done on my car last year and not really ever pushed the car that hard. (I tend to change gear around 5000 RPM!!) I thought I would give the car a run out the other day and decided to try and push the revs up to 6500 - 7000 along a dual carriage way When the revs got to around ...

Re: Finally got some photos
I have 18s on my car and just done an 1800 mile round trip to lemans and back. No rough ride at all on 18s. I'd keep those wheels on mate. Nice car, wheels suit if perfectly. Yeah I have 18's too and no issues. Going to stick my standard REV 5 wheels on for the winter though so will have to see if ...

Re: Outdoor winter car cover?
Definitely worth spending decent money on a cover. I bought one for £40 and after a week my spoiler tore through it.
Got another one now which was about £100 which is loads better.

Re: Interesting eBay Ferrari
Very sad effort IMO.
I saw a girl driving a MR2 355 the other day. You just know it's not a 355 straight away - not sure why you'd want one.

Never heard this before.
I know boost is limited when the car is cold (standard setup).

Turbo HT Leads - Recommendations
My Rev 1 turbo is misfiring. We think it's probably HT leads. I am away at moment so was thinking about ordering some so I could have them when I get back at the weekend.
Current leads are red which suits my engine so red would be nice but not essential.
Any recommendations??
