    I did a bit of looking about this a we while ago, and there's a bit of a delay in getting the activation of the cut out (think that's what they were called). would be cool though coz you could have a smaller diameter for lower revs, and effectively a larger diameter for higher revs without the power loss at lower revs. I was thinking about having a bike exhaust coming in to increase the flow...

    I unpicked the staples, but I think that I just reassembled it without the staples... was going to try pushing them back through but don't think I could.

    the oem dc2 manifold / collector added a nice subtle growl when I got mine

    looks lush and nice results on the dyno love the new wheels as well - look top notch.

    agree with all above - ball joint was making funky noises on mine for ages before found out what it was. doesn't do it when it's jacked up because there's no weight on it.

    sorry to hear it bud.. but you've done yourself proud with what you've done to her
  14. dr_broon
    I'm sure I remember a thread where someone had this... I'm thinking that it was something like the dimmer switch was disconnected?
  15. dr_broon

    my eibach springs were scary with the oem shocks - much better when I got the koni shocks
  20. dr_broon

  21. dr_broon

  23. dr_broon
    nice find is that matey - Hope it's a good one when you go to see it looks good from the pics like

    all sounds so familiar... I've snapped a couple of those door handle clips, my hazard light switch fell to bits, and the only time I managed to get the screws out of the console was once I'd got a ratchet screw driver and was able to put all my weight on it to stop it jumping out the head

    in the fuse box in the engine bay (near the battery) there's a fuse with "ecu" and one with "ecu backup" on.... that's all you have to whip out (might need some little pliers though)
