Any Idea Where This Fits ????

if you keep ontop of it - i bet its not tooo bad to keep clean to be honest

mine has 17 yrs of grime to get off

Ahhh I feel your pain 17 years for me too :evillaugh  just couldn\'t believe how much muck there was, twas sooo thick my hands would sink into it. :Giggle



Anyway sorry Stu, I believe we where on about your rack! :rollin

[grinder]

rack....fmic.....

im sure we discuss anything on my thread

but yeah the rack - still not sure about the saxo pump - they are about £45 off ebay if you can find one .. just not sure about that route or not

i need to start on the FMIC and work from there.. soo many toys .. so little time

Well I dont know what the steering feels like on a stock FC cause I have never driven one! :spank  but as a means to make less clutter and weight I would like to do the convirsion.

As for the bends in the IC pipes I read somewhere that you loose 25% of the flow for every bend (thats not to say after 4 bends you loose all flow!)  

If the pressure sensor is after all the IC bends then wont the turbo be made to compensate for the pressure drop?

Just thinking outloud so dont laugh! :chat

errrr no idea matey

its all to do with efficiency, the easy it is for the turbo to make the boost the better.

I am thinking of starting a poll to see whether on not the club should ban grinder from the forum until he finally gets around to fitting up some of his cool parts?? what do people reckon? He has the best part of a kick ar$e fc in his atic and this type of thread just goes to show he should be sending more time freezing his nads off fitting the fmic instead of gloating??
   no seriously, I really am thinking that this would be for his own good. I even read in another thread that he was thinking about getting a subaru!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Fit or Ban?   there is a nice ring to it if you ask me

[grinder]

now now matey

i hate seeing the car off the road to be honest ( which is why nothing gets fitted ! ) - its the meet on monday night - so i might see what i can do in the next 4 week block from that

i would really like to get the exhaust and suspension fitted - the FMIC - it just seems a rather large task if you ask me

if i had more space then i would be happy to work more on the car - its just annoying that i can only work on one side of it - then have to turn it around - doesnt make life easy at all

the scooby - humm bit of a sore point that - her indoors would prefer me to have that than the 3 cars i already have - now thats scary

Maybe we should do one of those makeover shows,  when Stu is away one weekend we can all go overthere and completely kit out his car.....

Stu,  come out in my car for a drive and you will see that its all worth while!

i think your right there Kev

to be honest i dont think the FMIC will make much of a difference to the car - its still on the stock turbo - i was just fitting it to keep the temps down !

id rather get the handling sorted first - no point going fast if it wont go where you want it to

i think the plan is

1 - suspension fitted and rear strut brace
2 - exhaust fitted
3 - wheels and tyres

not sure in what order but i think these need doing before the FMIC goes on

not sure what else i have lying around for it to be honest .. oh yeah the SAFCII needs wiring in aswell ... thats another job

[travellinbob]

FIT OR BAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!!!!!!!  You could have one hell of a car Stu. I do appreciate your difficulty with a lack of space etc.

[grinder]

im working on the fitting

things should move forward in the next few weeks - just trying to get my ducks in a row and then see what i can come up with

its really not the weather for working on cars ... i need to borrow a large garage from some one
