This is not good news :( I'm beginning to think that car is cursed ....

New Viper front bumper help!
Very neat, but will it be legal -i.e. pass an MOT ? Can you see the indicators when the headlights are on ?

Are lightened Flywheels worth it?
It will reduce the 'smoothness' of the engine a little, but pickup will be better. Ask PaulC - he loves his.

Wedding car needed
Met brown would probably have been a convertible import.

NZR: Good news for the badlands of Essex !
Broadband by wireless has finally reached us :D http://www.w20.net No more shitty phone lines, expensive ISDN or shatellite delay (Hurrah!) And, it's a symetric service, and the contention ratio is the same for domestic as BT use for business - so it's potentially a better service.

JWT chip, Reg F/C what does it mean?
The chip doesn't do much for the power (although the engine does seem to run a little smoother), but it allows you to raise the boost to about 14psi quite safely - which is where the extra power comes from !

trans temp!
That was a 'logical' rather than a 'physical' suggestion - but you knew what I meant. ;)

She is back :)
Who did the work Mike ? I need my front painted and I'm looking for recomendations. (That aren't in the frozen northen climes)

trans temp!
I would have thought that fitting it on the 'in' side of the oil cooler would be appropriate.

This section
I agree - would probably be best of moved to the public area. Any objections ?

Gearbox Oil cooler
For an import auto I'd rate this as pretty high - certainly before tuning mods.

Bleeding the water system

Bleeding the water system

Sounds like it may be a bad earth to me. Enough juice for the lights, but too much drain on a poor connection leads to arcing and means not enough current for the starter motor.
