Hi guys and gals, I haven't posted for a while so i thought I'd reintroduce myself. The Rover coupe has gone :cry:. An oil ring went on one of the pistons, i think, and i couldn't find any anywhere, so the only other option was forged pistons, but i didn't want to go down that road. So ive now...

I drove my works van around donnington at the world suberbikes the other weekend.

The coupe turbo came with a torsen lsd as standard.

Put on my seat belt. :bigsmile:

I had the same problem, turned out to be the oil pressuse switch. costs about £10-£15 for a new one. Let me know if you want the part number.

Very nice. I haven't seen a Pulsar for years!

No Honda should never have called the del sol a crx.

I've just found some photos of my crx, so i thought i'd share. And with new 17" alloys

Or the engine found in a 220 turbo :lol: As for the dash trim, i'm going to swap mine with a mk3 rover 200

I pass a white cusco impreza every morning. But that that looks mint badger! Just as good.

Best quote ever!

Motorway and night driving are part of the pass plus. So should pass plus be compulsory?

I've had to change the way i travel to work because of the bloody things. Do they actually work? They only slow people with modified cars. I've got to crawl over the or risk ripping my car to bits, where as my mate with a TT is the anoying git who flys over them or over takes on them at any...

Hi sprout, I work in peterlee, i'll keep an eye out for you.

Thanks Jamie. The next mod i plan is to swap the dash for a mk3 200 or a ZRs. But that'll be after xmas now.

Its got a forge dump valve(sounds sweet), and a 4 layer head gasket. I plan to leads and plugs sorted at its next service. As for ice i'm going to look at it next year, any tips would be appreciated.

Its not that expensive to run, i get about 30 mpg, as for gaskets about 4000 miles. Its just passed its test with no problems so im over the moon with it.

Yeah, last time it went i had it skimmed and its been fine since. (fingers crossed)

You'll only get 3 or 4 quotes from the comparison sites. I'd try Adrian Flux, Norwich Union, Admiral and Privilege (if you've got 4 years no claims).

Superchargers work better due to the linear power delivery, rarther than the sudden power you get from a turbo, i'd think. But that civic is mad!

The first thing i noticed about Paris was that 9 out of 10 cars had some sort of damage. I'm not saying the french are bad drivers but...;)

The driver side windscreen wiper came off my first car on the A1 just before it started to snow at about 9 oclock at night. I couldn't see a thing.

Head gasket, no. Exhaust manifold gastet yes, seems to go every 6 month

NSK for me. I saw one for sale last week for £17.999, if only i had a spare 18k.

Its a 94, the paintwork is very good for its age. Its does have a few small marks but nothing major, Its quicker than my friends clio 172, it's certainly no slouch. As for mods Full Stainless Exhaust K&N De-cat Boost @ 12psi 40mm lower and bigger brakes. I'm open to suggestions for future...

Here's my Rover 220 coupe

I had one a few years ago. Loved it, I'm going to look of a one for my girlfriend.

Give Adrian Flux a ring, they saved me almost £130 on the cheapest quote from the comparison sites.

I might be wrong but i dont think they did a 2ltr crx.

35 to 42 i think

The easiest way to do that would be putting 2 playstations in and linking them via ethernet (so long as they are ps2s or ps3s).

The reason you need to wire them to the handbrake is to earth it when the handbrake is applied, so you cant watch dvd's when the car is moving. The easiest way round this is to earth it constantly.

I perfer leather. They look much nicer and i dont find them hot in summer

I had a 91 CRX vtec about 2 years ago, I still regret getting rid of it.

A Fiat punto 1.1, the head gasket went after 3 weeks.

Thanks for the warm welcome and all the advice guys.

Hi all. My names Andrew but my mates call me Drew. I've just bought a Rover 220 coupe turbo. Hope you guys can help with any future advice. Current known mods are: Full Stainless Exhaust K&N Boost @ 12psi 40mm lower and bigger brakes.
