If one does it they'll all want one Matt H, Edd.... even me

Email him Yes, its straightforward. There'll be a guide somewhere on how to.

Moved to Supra chat as this is not technical.

Have a good one

Now I like ST's but that's funny..... but not funny at the same time

Oi!!!!! Ok, fair point. But in one soon

One that contains flourocarbon rubber would be best. High pressure fuel hose of some type I'd expect would work.

Dare I say there are a few old dogs on here..... and probably a few with rotten guts too. Have you considered a poll??

I run my tyres on my focus at 50 psi hot with the TPMS showing tyre pressures and temperatures. Wear is very low and is even due to less tyre heat than when lower inflated. The more a tyre flexes the more it heats up and the more it wears. Its actually a myth (from crossply days) that a tyre will 'crown' in the middle at high pressures. It actually stays flat due to the radial belts holding it in shape..... like its supposed to! Run the tyres at the max sidewall pressure (either 44 or 50 psi) checked when hot. Ride will be a bit rougher, and handling will be slightly worse, but rolling resistance will be much lower. Puncture susceptibility is slightly increased, but in most cases if you drive over a sharp object its unlikely that the tyre will conform around it, so you would probably have got a puncture anyway. If you really want to lower the rolling resistance to next to nothing then fit the new Michelin Energy Saver tyres and inflate to the max sidewall pressure (51psi IIRC). You'll see a difference! The official line from tyre companies is that they do not have data to support or condemn this practice as they don't test tyres at the max sidewall in real world conditions...... but the max sidewall pressure is there as the pressure to use at the tyre's max safe load (weight) at the rated speed, so if its at this pressure with a lower load then it can only be safer For more info on hyperinflating tyres then see http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthread.php/hyperinflating-tires-2582.html

Well done JT. So it can be done then

The sexy underwear may not fit you H

You're a growing boy Eat more lol

Thats about the same as my daily amount. I thought you were talking about in one meal! ...... which for me was a whole packet of spaghetti and 1lb of mince bolognese, in 12 minutes Yum.

The figures for the leakdown test (which should really be done hot) would be useful to determine if this is indeed the rings not sealing properly. The difference in compression from 170 to 150 is 13%. The most I would say is acceptable before an engine (in a standard road car) needs a rebuild is 20%. Ideally it needs to be 5% and no more then 10% in a performance motor. Engine out and partial rebuild with new rings and re-seating the valves would be a good idea if you could do it yourself as it would be relatively cheap and a lot of the annoying jobs could be done suvh as valve stem seals, valve clearances, cam belt etc. The thing is that it is still a big job and to have a garage do it will still cost £££££. Wait to see what the result of the oil in cylinder compression test is, plus post up the leakdown results. There *may* be something gained from those results.

Link to NWS thread..... the main one with pics http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=191573 Erin can only see this one BTW guys

Well, now its been moved to NWS the Op can't post here anymore, so there's no point asking her questions guys I'll copy the first post into the New members section so she knows whats happening lol

Mates??? I had flashbacks of Niz then Welcome aboard, nice car! /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_grin.gif

Measure the discs for thickness against the minimum spec, and inspect for ridges and cracks. If ok get some 80 grit wet & dry paper and roughen up the disc's surfaces. Then fit CW fast road pads.

Well, they say size IS important!!!

Bill Prawn was always good for a Friday laugh. Always enjoyed all his posts

He'll be on in a minute bragging about the length of his barrel Unless it was s snub nose magnum!!!

She's had a kid called Dylan now and is married

Ignored

That's certainly some skills that guy has got! I never got past cycling proficiency grade 3

Give Bonehead my regards then...... and tell him yess my hair is all mine and not a wig like he said last time lol Not that you'll be seeing him tho
