  1. Reading that ARISTO site, it's definitely a fuel RICHENER/LEANER but it's the ULTRASONIC COIL bit that gets me ?? [not a new form of Female Contraceptive, IS it ???]
  2. [from Geneb's piccies . . . .] looks like NKD is the 'make' ?? tried searching for ECS-SGT-5C but no-go ! 'Super Gas Turbo' just gives those 3 hits (so far) ! Haven't tried 'Global-Save Green' yet, gonna try that now !! (can you tell i've got an N/A ??? . . . i don't believe in something-for-nothing either . . . . . . . . BUT ! ! ! )
  3. and AGAIN ! ! ! http://www.mx6.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1683277
  4. http://preludeuk.forumup.com/about749-.html&highlight= There's more than ONE out there anyhows ! ! ! or, ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
  5. Hi ya Rob We were at Pod yesterday as well, the silver soop. Steve has got a video of one of your good runs (10.9) If you would like a copy of if, PM me your email and I will send it to you ok ? ? ? I had some good runs yesterday as well, I bettered my last run time by 3 tenths of a sec, not much I know by your time but its under 16 secs now - 15.9 What did you think of that white SH*T!!!??? I stopped running after they covered the start line with it, my last run I went into the red - 7,000!!!! Sorry I have just realised I am still signed in as Steve .... sorry Cheers Carole (SteveW's Carole)
  6. We've just decided to go Pod (again) tmrw. Going with Carole's Son and his Revvy-Boyz So we'll be the "Old'uns-in-the-Fat-old-AUTOMATIC" !! Just lettin' know in case any body else goin' . . . . . . [weather looks FAIR, cloudy but dry ? slightly cooler than today ??] FatS
  7. errrr, just noticed the '97 bit Check the shape of those 'shadow' pics that you've still got the 'Jap' pads ? Not sure if the later Soop N/A could have UK brakes (or even a third type ??? think there's only 'big' and 'small' though ??)
  8. Oh, BTW, i'm running UK spec/size on our N/A, the fronts are 'Blueprint' Discs and Pads, (and have already stood up to Carole's Santa Pod antics ! ! ! ! ! ) the rears are 'Toyota' Discs and Pads.
  9. I CAN vouch for the Blueprint pads AND discs as i KNOW that they are AS SUPPLIED BY TOYOTA ! ! ! [We bought Blueprint for a customer/friends Soop, then i bought Toyota ones for MINE . . . . bit peeved when i opened the TOYOTA BOXES and found exactly same discs and pads ! ! !] As for any others Mintex/Lockheed/Lucas/Girling etc etc they are all good makes ON NORMAL ROAD CARS, but i can't say how they fair on a Soop, even the N/A is quite vicious on pads and discs.
  10. I'm just scanning a page from the BluePrint Catalog . . . 'ang on a tick mate ! !
  11. Can give you the Mintex and Lockheed numbers but don't know that they'd be much cheaper than £30 ?? [most suppliers can cross these numbers . . i just haven't done it lately . . DOH ! ]
  12. THINK it's simply a Bellows to slow the return of the Main Throttle 'butterfly' (plate) so as to NOT get a VERY SUDDEN reduction in revs (not too good on manuals, not so bad on an auto ?!?!?). ? ? ? ?
  13. We've only ever tried the Hallies one, but can't see why any other make shouldn't work ?? BUT, still let ya know what it's called in morn' (too lazy/old to go out there now )
  14. We normally spray both the front and rear rubbers with (Halfrauds) Rubber Lubricant - i'll get exact name in morn' . . it's in garage ! It worked STRAIGHT AWAY ! The rain used to dribble down the front joins where they meet the window MOSTLY. Soon as we sprayed it, it 99% cured it !! It must expand the rubber slightly or something and give a better 'mating' or sumtin' ?? Carole says "are you getting a wet ar*e then ?"
  15. VERY rough, and no 19's i'm afraid . . . .
  16. What ? YES, i'm STOOPID or YES, i look like a DICK ????
  17. STOOOOOPID question, but, i don't wanna look a DICK ! ! Is a Jap screen DEFINITELY same as UK ??? (not worried about tint/colour etc, just SIZE . . oooh errr) FatS.
  18. "P", Megane 1.4 8v, 105,000m, £300, 43mpg ave., trouble much above 85mph, BUT at least i can SIT in it comfortably ! ! [6ft 3]
  19. BLIMEY mate, have you ever put your feet down on the carpet while driving ??? Doesn't LOOK like it Our Soop needs a clean-up . . . if you're passing ?? Seriously clean car though.
  20. you cheeky pair of FUDGEPACKERS ! ! ! ! !
  21. We're gonna go Poddin' tomorrow. Taking the Soop and MAYBE running it ! I KNOW it's gonna be slippy, just for fun really. [weather s'pose to be dry, ~7C, but will still be poor traction obviously . . being Pod !! ] Anyone else thinking of going ??
  22. WE get a continuous clicking on OUR computer, but it comes from the MOUSE every time Carole gets her hands on it ! ! ! "SINGLE click WOMAN !" "It's allREADY trying to load WOMAN" etc etc etc [sorry to butt in mate;) ]
  23. Stafngrímr Dogchaser BIT concerned about the SECOND name ?!?!?!?
