coolio I'll let him know...

That's what I'm trying to find out

nope, not yet at least, but if you listen closely you can here it sobbing in the garage that it was meant to be bigger...

not a clue, it's only standard so is really only useful to someone who doesn't want to wait whilst there's is big bored?

Sorry for the delay...

Either way it's no use to me. I'll ask my brother if he wants to convert it - how much?

yup, V8 vogue se with all the posh bits...

lol @ dominitry

and I REALLY miss the fuel bills of the iS... wanna swap Nick? lol

A nice sensible car of course...

welcome...

Good to hear it's being taken care of, although perhaps I should change my signature

I seem to still have the standard throttle body in my garage... should I give it to my brother to have big bore'd (e36 M42 engine though if there's a difference in throttle body)? Or would it be of any use to an E30 owner for some reason?

Ãƒ”šÃ‚£120 for the bb wasn't it?

The only thing I didn't really like was the offset pedals...

although would D4 DYB work just as well legally spaced?

could prove a useful photo for people working out how to replace fuel tanks etc

it's still in the bottle... I'll take it with me and see what they say as the beemer is dot 3 standard I think?

Got a litre of this in the garage that I didn't use in one of my old cars. Beemer is going in for oil service and brake fluid change tomorrow, can I give them this to use?

you have to haggle with agreed valuation just as much as a normal insurance payout I've found, mine's agreed at 2k, which isn't bad for an iS I thought!

probably not, you're not going to be running them 100% all the time...

... are you?

tadaa...

back to the calculator ->

hmm... so the bbtb has got to add 2-4 to the rwhp... could be an over estimate I guess, 2 sounds reasonable. It's certainly quicker anyway but that might be more through the rev range rather than top end.

Will be interesting to see

www.tdi-plc.com With the bbtb, decat and panel filter I'd imagine I'm running 150bhp, give or take 5 ish? My engine has 170k on it though else I'd be considering tuning it further. :giggle: At the fly mate? When it ran 128 RWHP last year, bbtb wont have added that much? Anyway, you are all losers -...

have you got a supplier yet? If not, I can do it. Have contacts at toad to get at cost price...

front fogs look about as cool as neon washer jets...

well done

depends how lucky you are, but I certainly wouldn't be taking my car there again!!

22 with 3 years no claims and 3 points (SP50). Fully comp with agreed valuation, Ãƒ”šÃ‚£560

so essentially you could run the M42 lump at 12psi, assuming the internals would like it...

I've got two tens and can get the bass out of the boot... about to go down to one ten so I'll let you know how it changes!

nuts, that's one thing I miss from my e36

I'm too posh to hold the button

do the e36 switches give the one touch function?

does it still have the plug on the end?

I can supply you the adapter if it does, or a universal iso plug that you can crimp/solder on. Solder preferably but most find crimping easier

Aftermarket mini tuners take the standard supercharger to 245bhp... that's with engine work though, 220 without. 170bhp sounds about right for a simple iS installation, obviously more money thrown at it = more power. (200bhp on mini is Ãƒ”šÃ‚£550, 220 is Ãƒ”šÃ‚£2k!) Throwing my original budget of 2 ...

pioneer or vibe out of that lot, certainly not sony or the unbranded one...

don't have a ski hatch? make one!

check the fuel pipes going from the fuel filter to the fuel rail, usual culprits and nice and cheap as a bonus!

When you replace these crank the motor over with fuse 11 removed first. This turns the fuel pump off so means there is slightly less fuel in the pipes.

My flatmate has just got some high end alpine 5.25" components in, sounds good. Does anyone sell just the mids? I've got tweets and xovers from a set of focals but the mids have died...

I don't understand the crack with the ST170's... I've beaten two now in my is. perhaps not convincingly by car lengths, but consistently pulling away. Won't comment on the distance left in the corners because that brings driver skill into the equation too much, he was taking some crap lines! Althoug...
