Well i guess he is going down the same road as me ryan.. not wanting 16v's like everyone else and making the best of the other TU engines...
Cant blame him tbh! Sounds good mate.. |
|
Oh i see what you mean, ye he doesn't need those pistons for headwork and a cam..
and yeah on a high revving engine you may aswell do the rods too so its proper strong.. |
|
yeaah i dont want a vts. I just want to build summit faster and better. I know everyone thinks that people should get vts engines it saves so much hassle and that, but to be honest if i were to do a engine conversion a vts is one of the last things i would put under the bonnet. So anyway what sort of gains we talking about 5bhp? more? please dont say less lol.
|
|
even peter86 on the rallye reg isnt on pistons and his makes close to 150bhp on tbs. i know its a 1600 but still only 8v |
|
there will be other mods by the way but all it will be is things like exhaust, manifold, head work, cam, remap, induction kit etc. I just dont want to have forced induction. An other mods i could have other than forced induction or a new engine?
|
|
How do cars like bics for example pass then?
Like the s1600 rally cars, along with any rally car, have to be MOT'd as they have road sections in rally's.. |
|
ok guys cheers. I think sum1 was on about throttle bodys earlyer? Can sum1 explain theres to me??
|
|
Yeah, i mean the sort of cams on the s1600's etc dont really come into play properly until like 5k or so i would imagine..
At the rallies i go to, there are nova's and other cars that when they pull off the line are stuttering like feck until they hit about 4 or 5k rpm then they take off.. |

|
lol, i have noticed you couldnt care less..
I like to keep my sax clean, but as for little scratches etc, they dont bother me..Its got a few little ones and small chips, i couldnt spend money to get them sprayed at a bodyshop or anything though!! ![]() Proper track stylee. |
|
i would paint the inside white, but think of the added weight!
my cage isnt fully painted. i missed areas... all adds to the shed image |
|
style whore..... soon you will be ordering an orbital buffer and wanking over meguires products when theyre on spethal offer at halfrauds
|
| i do laugh at alot of the track converts though.. can tell that half of them will cry when they get a stone chip from gravel. |
|
he will have the information... i still will stand by the fact there is a maximum duration and lift for cams to run before the emissions will cause an mot failure.
|

|
no i'm not actually, lol..
as soon as i got my car the slagging commenced. |
|
exactly you did it because you wanted to from day one.
not because your a sheep! i shall come to a track day with a bucket of mud!! that should keep me a clean track all day! they will have to go and wash, dry, wash, shampoo, wash, dry then wax and polish the car again, leaving me to have fun |
|
LOL.. Feck that imo.. Hammerite, sctratches etc etc.. Thats the proper slag way! |
|
im in a ranting mood i could continue but i should not.
imo a track slag is someone who does not have any form of style mod, the car is about all out performance. so not having lightweight glass because you dont like the look is not the work of a track slag. ta. |
|
I agree with that.. * Cough (although i have black VTR wheels) Cough*
|
|
they are wheels... theyre not 17s.. youve not just fitted steels coz everyone else is... etc...
its just annoying that everyone thinks theyre a track slag.... lol... i might fit some bumper nuts to my car now just to see how many of them copy me |
|
true, i got rid of my 16's as i wanted a lighter and smaller wheels for track use, performance minded you see.
Yeah i know what you mean..you cant just take your back seats out and be a track slag, some work has to go into the car aswell imo.. LOl, would be a laugh.. |
|
I feel for you mate, i really do!!
did the op go well though, for what they were actually doing apart from screwing you balls up, lol.. |
|
Ouch..
Is it abit like when you strain/sprain your groin but worse, if so i know what you mean.. I fucked my groin up a couple of times playing football and rugby at school.. proper painful.. |
|
lol it doesnt even come close a strained groin does.
http://www.physioroom.com/injuries/g...ernia_full.php im on 3 different types of pain killers |

|
i didnt think it would but i know the type of things that cause it to hurt etc.. everyday things!
![]() interesting little read that was.. What painkillers? My dad had to take pethadene(sp) when he had kidney stones.. They are fekin strong apparently. |
|
lol, fair enough!!
Yeah, used to keep getting reminded throughout the day when i fucked my groin that there was a problem.. felt like doing this.. |
|
i dont care, i find it funny, its why ive told people. gotta make people laugh at the end of the day and not be to serious about it, chances are most people will have some form of op at some point in their life, i just hope they dont have one as painful as this! when the anesthetic went in i had my eyes and gob open still lol!!
|
|
i loved it.. hurt when the doc put the needle in my hand though to inject it..
but yeah i was under for 2 hours anf felt like 5 mins... |
|
needles are fine, theyre just a cunt when youve got it attached for over a day.. you catch it on everything lol..
ive been awake since 6am, only had 3 hours sleep. i think the anesthetic seems to be working differently, as everyone said i should be drowsy |

|
unlcuky. mine was set up fine, straight under, came out jumped up, re sedated lol! got upstairs then spent all day stuffing my face
