Jordan99940 Posted August 15, 2010 Author Share Posted August 15, 2010 Its the same size as a Nissan Navara mate Never had any problems with it, people did get annoyed sometimes as some junctions that are big enough for 2 cars were not when I was there lol. Anyway, Don't own it anymore Dude, traded her in for the BMW. i've not always like the 1 series BMW but over the last year i really do like them now its amazing how many BMW's have popped up over this site lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee_2f2f Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 People are "growing up" I guess, moving out of the small cars into the bigger. Anyway, get yourself some nice shiny new plates (get the plastic screw covers too, to tidy the front up more No1show plates sell them for £3 I think.

Jordan99940 Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 (edited) well recently my cambelt has been making a horrible rattling noise so i best get that changed within the next week or so becuase when i took the cover off boy was it loose i have no idea when it was changed and at 70 thousand miles i doubt it has been so cant take the risk this is when i will look to get my camshafts in at the same time. also guys looking at one of two manifolds i found on Ebay can any body tell me what one would be better or if there are any better ones for the same price bracket circa £200http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ASHLEY-PERFORMANCE-M...SM#ht_752wt_911 http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/25228.jpg http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...T#ht_2705wt_911 http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/25229.jpg obviously the difference for those who cannot be bothered to read the links is one is a decat and the other isnt yet the one that is not the decat say its a much better option than the cat (is that only on practicality Basis or is there away the sports cat would be better (if it is even a sports cat)) cheers lee for being a regular thread reader it makes me think my time isnt wasted on here lol Edited August 17, 2010 by Jordan99940 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan99940 Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 after having a discussion on here with more ore less stu i have gone against getting a manifold and Decat because being mild steel it didnt really offer that much. so as some people may have seen i did go on ebay this morning and buy these http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/25247.jpg they are Kawasaki Throttle bodies and they have been mounted up on a zetec inlet manifold with all the management and wiring for the bargain price of £250 well i hope its a bargain price any way... Also i got my car back from my friends dad with the slight improvement of this. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/25250.jpg http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/25251.jpg any comments welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
