  1. Looks like the new job is keeping me busy...in Czech rep so wont make it
  2. I had the MK1 1.8 in my SR2 which pushed out 130bhp in standard form. ITB will give approx 15-20bhp over injection ?(Roadrunner have done a few of these). However supercharging gives a nice 240bhp and loads of torque The MK2 1.8 I think is up by 10 bhp ish on the MK1
  3. Use some clear silicone. Will stick down the plate and can be removed at a later date without too much mess. use masking tape on the nose cone so when you wipe off any excess you get a nice seal between plate and nose cone with no mess or do as I did for 4 years and drive around with it in your boot so if you ever got stopped "it just dropped of, honest Guv ". Never got a 2nd glance in 4yrs. Just fitted a temp one for MOt purposes
  4. Down in Newquay celebrating the wifes 50th so another no show from me
  5. Thought you had it dual mapped? Normal and mad modes? Not done something silly have we?
  6. Sounds really good Dave and should definitely turn a few heads...especially for those of us old enough to remember "The Prisoner" Piccies though would definitely prompt more responses I'm sure
  7. This is a subject that has been buzzing around forums for a while. This is an excerpt from the Cobra forum, he got an email from DVSA to clarify the situation (there was a lot of worried guys there with big old V8's): "What we are trying to prevent here, is engines being changed for older variants thereby increasing the vehicles emissions since the time the vehicle was type approved as this is illegal on vehicles first used from 1 September 2002 under the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986. In the case of a kit car, these are often approved with an older engine are and will therefore still tested to those ‘old engine’ standards as the engine has not been changed since its approval (SVA/IVA test). Therefore, if a 2003 kit car was IVA tested with a 1987 engine, it will be MOT tested to the emissions standard applied at IVA. Best regards Shaun Martin | Policy Specialist (Vehicle Testing and Roadworthiness) Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency | Berkeley House, Croydon Street, Bristol BS5 0DA " If there is nothing on your V5C front sheet under emissions then send complaint to DVLA asking them to send you a new one with this on Hope this helps clarify
  8. Bet my aerial is bigger than yours though
  9. See my post on small number plates;;;
  10. Ran my Sr2 for 3 years and 10K miles with no front number plate...it fell off and was in my boot bloody pot holes From my limited understanding, if you display an illegal number plate i.e. under size, you do it deliberately so if stopped then automatic 3 points If you claim its fallen off and have proof i.e. in boot then 99.99% of time slap on wrists and go get it sorted. However I never got a second look by cops on the road in 3 years.... Just make sure its present for MOT though
