Wont rev past 4K
Am i right in thinking that the maf is on the way out? It used to hiccup when it spooled but now it does it all the time. I had put the maf in the airing cupboard overnight and it seemed to fix it. Now it does it all the time. Worst of all when its cold, i assume thats because the hotter it gets the more it dries the maf out. Thanks guys Mark

Does anyone have an astra, the one before the brand new one
Cheers man, ive done that part up top to 71mm circular. I hope it fits. I saw the lugs on another badge, i think they would snap off making it the way i have. Im just gonna glue it on. Whats the rear like? I know its bigger, but does it have a concaved surface, and does it bend over the ridge down the boot? Thanks guys

Its mainly the rear of the badge i need to get right, if it concaved atall, i think that one is 120 diameter, could be wrong though

Ah thanks alot man, ive actually got a dimension so hopefully they will match up at 71mm accross and 6mm high overall. If he could get the rear one also would be really helpful. If my measurement is wrong this will be a waste :D No fixings, im just gonna glue it on.

clutch squeals and squeals??
No its not the pedal, it feels like its the plate itself, if you do a fast take off it barely squeaks, if you do it carefully it wont squeak, but most of the time it does. It doesnt judder in first gear.
-
clutch squeals and squeals??
It doesnt smell or smoke, I think theres a little bit of slack, like just in the movement of the pedal, I dont think it slips, it certainly pulls well enough so i dont think it does. I didnt put it in but the guy i bought it off said it had a paddle clutch and fidanza flywheel fitted, i would have thought if that was true they would have done it properly.

clutch squeals and squeals??
What does this mean guys, I got the impression that because its got a high performance clutch its been fettled with and someone didnt grease the bearing when putting it back together, but ive searched on google and its saying its a disaster in the making?

OH Well, can't go out tonight!
Take the maf off tonight with the filter and put them in the airing cupboard ready for tomorrow, its only a 5 min job, should be fine by tomorrow (if its the same problem i had obviously)
-
OH Well, can't go out tonight!
Id say maf, its similar to what i was getting, once id been driving for about half hour anything that had got wet (maf or filter) was nice and dry and it was running perfectly again.

What rear spolier is this?
Really for any car, i thought the boot might be a slightly different shape due to the rear window, but thats good to know

plastic under wing parts
Are the front plastic under arch pannels near the intercoolers essential. One of mine was missing already so i took the other out to match. I thought it would be better for the air flow round there, but could be wrong. Are they designed atall to increase air flow to the coolers? Cheers Mark
