  1. well if it flashes twice, normally when ur 1/2 way thru the markings then the cam is armed and loaded with film, if its one flash dont worry aout it - thats for the ones in UK , in NL they flash once all the time. it has been known for the cameras to be incorrectly set, and yes they normally are set a bit above the speed limit otherwise they would be out of film in 5 mins!. i find some glass etching compound does wonders for my speedo.:saint:
  2. has she got a pulse? if so its a deal! :o
  3. mmmm dont know about that one ill have to contemplate this deeply scientific conundrum, in a relaxed state of natural re-juvination. ( ill sleep on it):D

  7. ok, i think i have this correct, there are 2 places to register, 1 for the forums- allows you to post etc, which you have obviously done:D The other place is for the news page etc, you need to go to the main page and on the left hand side there are a few options one is "your account" if you click there is a register button. Steve - i know u have been changing the site recently, is what i have said correct or is it only 1 register now cheers robbie. [Edited on 13-3-2002 by fluff34567]
  8. hi guitareth, welcome to the club! i know exactly what you mean about the alarm, it is a bit of a pain in the arse,im speaking to my dealer tomo so will find out if its possible. As for cleaning the alloys, i just use dish wash liquid and hot water, but i do that about 2 times a week so its really easy to keep clean, i have found that a lot of dirt comes from rust from the rotors( front especially) just after washing only. I have tried wonder wheels but wasnt impressed. well thats my 0.02P worth. robbie.
  9. cheap car anyone? one careful owner, needs very slight attention. http://www.khitaicars.com/khi_files/cars/624.htm
  10. well i would suggest that your first port of call is the german company that had that pic in thier price list savage car performance and design. robbie
  11. the previous kumho tires i have had the displeasure of using were absolute and utter crap, so maybe they have got thier act together???
  12. Nitrous oxide incorrectly also called NOS( nitrous oxide systems) after the lagest nitrous kit company. it was originally used in world war 2 by the piston powered fighter aircraft to give moments of extra power but due to the development of the gas turbine engine by Sir Frank Wittle it became obsolete, until that is it was used in races to enhance the power of cars. Nitrous oxide has this power boosting effect because it has a higher percentage of oxygen content than atmosphere. Nitrous has 36% oxygen by weight and the atmosphere has 20%. Additionally, nitrous oxide is 50% more dense than air at the same pressure. Thus, a cubic foot of nitrous oxide contains approx 2.5 times as much oxygen as a cubic foot of air. so more oxygen a bit more fuel = a lot more power. sorry for the long post! :P:D robbie
  13. ok i have had a look at the fan assy and there isnt really much you can do, the fan runs in bushings no oil wick there. it is also difficult to remove the impeller with out damaging it to some extent, to remove the fan itself there r 3 screws below the glovebox so it takes 2 mins to drop the fan, the plenum chamber is behind the glovebox but there is no need to remove that. i dont want to remove the impeller as i want it to keep working! sorry guys. any other people with this fan noise problem! robbie.
  14. dont know about the performance increase but i can tell you that the TRD filter is the same as the normal one but has a red dye and it will cost you about £85!!!! I belive that trust do one, i have had a look at their site but couldnt find it on there. robbie [Edited on 8-3-2002 by fluff34567]
