hi all,
today i welded my exhaust up, simple job to do, i removed the exhaust from the manifold, welded it up, put it back on the car, fired her up an now the throttle wont open. ive checked for lose cables, wires. cleaned the senses an made sure everything was connected. ive had my mates...
the abs light comes on some times but then after a couple of miles to goes off. it does this about 2-3 times a week.
i havent had a diagnostic test done yet
hi all

hello.
i have a 1.3 ka W reg. it has started to make a quite grinding noise. this only happens when its in neutral with the clutch out. when you put the clutch in it stops.
also when the engine gets to temp. an i come to change gear the engine revs its self after a couple of seconds it stops...
well. not much has happened due to the cost of insuring my daily run around. but with it being warmer an more hours in the day the prodject should pick up again i hope.:bigsmile:
hello. my mates 1.25 ztec is not running right. between 3500 revs an 4500 revs there is a flat spot. yesterday we disconnected the battery for about an hour while fitting a ice install. once fitted and connected back up. the problem arised.
we've cheacked the earth cables. made sure...
bodykits on corsas an saxos pointless. how ever on a skyline, 350z. nsx. subaru an others. look good. but they are there for a purpuse. bigger front grille aids in cooling. brake ducts to cool brakes an pervent brake fade. wide archs= bigger track width= better cornering speed, handlering an...
sprayed my boot lid last week end an fitted the bonnet catchs. an i got my pull cable,battery cut off switch an bonnet pins.

he was in the right to put that sign up. it gave information about the condition of the road. he could argue that when road workers put signs up like 'ramp' an 'men at work' that they create a distraction. but then again th police like to catch inocent people instead of crimmenals.
petrol prices are going up by 1p every week in the derbyshire area. there was a big fuss about it last year when the lorry drivers where going on strike but that seems to be brushed under the carpart. they must off bein threatened by the goverment with the anti terriostim law. at least i think...
my view is... to get rid of traction control, ABS an any other electrical goodies. there alound 2 pit stops. one for fuel and one for tires. a engine has to last at least a session if not longer. i used to enjoy watching it but i personally think its gone down hill in the last 6 years or so.
took the engine out this weekend aswell as the fuel tank and exhaust. i had to take the front end off as this is the easiest way when you still have the drive shafts connected to the gearbox.
boy racers drive around in corsas and saxos that have a 5'' back box and a max power air filter right next to the manifold. and think its the dogs bohonys. they also drink an drive an smoke pot.
enthusiasts are the ones who see the potentall in there car and mod it in a way that makes a good...
