Is it a phase 3 bonnet?
Sorry for the thread hi-jack Steve...
RE: Project get back 20bhp - karl1989 - 25-02-2014
Sure it is. Look at my forsale thread. Comments there
ZR 160 - lolsteve - 25-02-2014
Haha no worries Alee
Plans:
-Currently looking into a gearstick UJ modification at the moment as the gearstick is quite sloppy so doesnt help for sporty shifts.
-Ordered galletto to get the map file off
-Does anyone in the area have a torque wrench that goes to 10nm? Saves me buying one to use once for the cam ladder
Question
When pulling away sometimes it feels like it's wheel spinning but it's not, any ideas?
RE: Project get back 20bhp - Midnightclub - 25-02-2014
Clutch slipping?
RE: Project get back 20bhp - lolsteve - 26-02-2014
That's what my first thought but the revs arn't going up and the speed isnt, its more like the shaking feeling of wheel spinning without the wheels spinning
RE: Project get back 20bhp - Piggy - 26-02-2014
Engine mounts knackered?
10nm is like little finger tight...be surprised if there is a torque wrench which is accurate to such a small amount
RE: Project get back 20bhp - RetroPug - 26-02-2014
You can buy mini torque wrenches that operate solely within that range and are no good for large torques.
RE: Project get back 20bhp or buy a GTI 6 - lolsteve - 26-02-2014
This is one that operates at that level, it just seems like alot for a one use thing but I dont want to go 'she'll be rit' when dealing with camshafts

I'll give the engine mounts a shake later, would powerflex tighten it up without making the car unlivable? Don't quite understand the stiffer engine mount business

Love it...!
If you want me to borrow a torque wrench I can, but will have to let me know an exact time to get it as will need to be back at work...
RE: Project get back 20bhp or buy a GTI 6 - 7057sam - 26-02-2014
Definitely get a 6 not being biased or anything

I'd only need it to put stuff back together so a day or two at most. Now just a case of getting it apart :/ (26-02-2014, 06:42 PM)7057sam Wrote: Definitely get a 6 not being biased or anythingNo chance, I hear those 6's and XUD's have terrible headgasket problems

True story!
RE: Project get back 20bhp or buy a GTI 6 - Stephen - 26-02-2014
The injector bolts of my mercedes are supposed to be tightened to 7nm. I didn't know that when I did it. Or have a torque wrench so I just tightened them up loads which probably isn't ideal but oh well
RE: Project get back 20bhp or buy a GTI 6 - 7057sam - 26-02-2014
Haha yeah ive been through 2 engine done 0 miles
I've found a guy who break axsara vts' s engine's are much lower mileage but yeah they a ticky time bomb
I've seriously though about a civic type r ep3 getting cheap now under 2k easy. 197bhp with lsd with a few mods be as quick as a low boost
RE: Project get back 20bhp or buy a GTI 6 - lolsteve - 27-02-2014
I could probably get away without a torque wrench but for piece of mind I'd like to have one so I don't overtighten or have cams fly off at 7k
Spent some time at the scrappy today hunting for a part to help solve the sloppy gearstick problem. 1 hour, several cuts and £10 later and we have ourselves a steering rack UJ to replace the gearbox UJ
