  2. Said I'd start a thread to document bits I'm doing to the aerodeck. Anyways picked up my titan silver 2001/y reg mc1 aerodeck has the 1.6 single cam vtec d16w4. Always wanted an aerodeck seen one when I was about 12-13 and I was in love. As they were never sold in Ireland they are fairly rare over here I've seen less than 10 in my lifetime. Anyways here's some pics and spec D16w4 bog standard except whale p***s and decat 8j bbs rs reps Suspension was running tein superstreets from an eg but when back to the oem setup as was to low and just unfunctional K sport rear camber arms Limo tints and front visor 8000k hid kit. Full vti half leathers Ek9 steering wheel Team heko wind deflectors Full sound system new speakers and door tweeters Just picked up a full vtis lip kit and mid Spoiler Wich should have fitted soon

  3. 5 doors in vti trim are fairly non existent over here, there are countless 5 doors in 1.4 variant but nobody mods them. My first m was a 1.4 in pirates black with only 30k miles in absolute mint condition

  4. I wonder if anyone has experienced a problem with the front brake pads intermittently heating up badly. About a month ago I was on a day out when I heard a sound as though I had a flat tyre. I pulled over and found the front off-side brake pads smoking and as hot as hell. (Couldn't put my hand anywhere near the calliper or disk.) Okay, I thought, the pads must be finished although I hadn't heard any metal to metal sounds. I let everything cool down and drove slowly home but surprise, surprise, no noise and the brakes worked fine. I took the wheel off and checked the pads but there was plenty of meat and more to the point, the brakes were cool. I surmised that I had maybe picked up a bit of grit or rust. Problem solved. NOT SO. After about 800 miles of driving, last week it happened again. Then again today. This time I checked the bearing to see if it was the hub heating up and not the brakes although I'm sure it would have fallen off by now. I couldn't find any movement and once again, when I took the car for a drive everything was perfect. I'm stumped. I would appreciate any ideas from anyone with a greater knowledge than me. (Which includes everyone in the world apart from my wife and 3 daughters. On second thoughts, include my wife.) Thanks everyone John

  5. As far as I know, Yes. I ran SK2 previous and lost power without porting it due to odd cast marks, now I port, polish and portmatch everything intake side and I've never had an issue

  6. I think this OEM intake full port and polish would be as good as s2 or blox. But the main reason is I want to keep the IABs, so the engine would be good on low/mid range. Is this a good idea?
