Old ones all porous and manky, plus the drops on the driveway are a bit of a dead giveaway
Many thanks,

Re: Dale on the BBC
News isnt interesting unless its sensationalist eh. The bellend from the AA needs his head read. 90%+ of modified cars are cosmetic anyway, especially with younger drivers. Putting a set of 17's and a stainless exhaust on a car isnt going to make it go quicker at all, on a smaller engined motor its ...

Hey everyone, not been on here much in the last year as my car's lack of working properly has seriously depressed me to the point of hating the thing. Finally got the drive to get her running properly again instead of just getting me to work and back so I have a quick Q. Having done a big search on ...

[Mk2] [Turbo] Rev3 - Are all rear brake pads the same size on mk2?
Just wondering if the rev3 has the same brake pads on the rear as the intial Mk2 from 1989 onwards.
Just got a set delivered here, Mintex MDB 1325 and wanted to make sure before I get the rear brakes all stripped off that they are the right ones.
Thanks folks and merry chrimbo

Its got a Unichip which means the stock ECU runs in conjunction with it, the chip running as an overlay/piggyback.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Lack of ignition advance (well sluggish, no power till boost)
Thakns for the replies people.
It goes "better" after an ECU reset but its still a burst couch.
Im not sure how to check the ignition timing and it hasnt been altered since I had the car mapped.
Cheers!

Hello folks, Had a niggling problem for a while, basically the car drives flat. No get up and go, it boosts ok and once its up past 4000rpm it goes well (though not as quick as before). No dash lights, no stored codes using the paperclip trick etc. Just wondering if anyones got any ideas. Since it f...
