  1. Washed :tongueout:
     
  2. Flashed a Henk map stage one........WOW! Need to get oil temp gauge added ASAP
     
  3. Why the need for an oil temp gauge
     
  4. Just to monitor warm up temps closer :smile:
     
  5. Just the same as when it was on the standard map mate , just more boost
     
  6. Had one in my m3 and used it as a safety indicator for knowing when I could go wot safely :smile:
     
  7. Pressure is 10x better than temp. Temp is good if your a track user. Get a dual gauge that has both!
     
  8. Cheers :smile: any recommendations ?
     
  9. Spa but your looking at near 300
     
  10. Road trip.... zybuvygy.jpg

    290bhp 300lb torque. :cool:

    First time I'd meet Paul, really sound bloke and love the alien green 1/4 mile beast his building. Not as much as the GTR though, that's awesome.
     
  11. Impressive figures, what mods you got for that?
     
  12. Deep breath....itg induction kit, 3"decat, milltek cat back, FMIC, 630 injectors, forge recirc valve and I think that's it engine wise oh and the mapping to suit. Not bad for a car with 98k
     
  13. Sweet, would like to see want mine will pull after I fit the itg/3' Decat and 630's :smile:

    Really good figures that, did Paul keep it safe on the 300 or Could it have gone more?

    Had a new fuel sender unit fitted last night. Oh my god. The difference is night and day. So much more responsive, especially top end. And the rough idle has disappeared. Best £190 I spent on the car tbh.

    Paul as a rule deliberately limits torque to 300 for safety. I'm not sure if it needed winding back. The difference is staggering mate it really is brilliant.
     
  16. Stuck a new set of injectors in my R26, got rid of the exhaust chuff and smoothed out the idle a little
     
  17. 290 bhp. Can't wait to have my decat injectors and new map chucked on!
     
  18. Replaced my wobbly drivers side mirror.
     
  19. :cool:confused:tripped

  22. New bolts fitted

  23. Tracked it. ;-)
     
  24. This is the spare engine I'm forging. It looked to of slipped a tooth. Buying all my forged bits shortly. 83mm pistons, new bearings, rebuilt head and some powder coating.
     
  25. Fitted the newer style gear knob, so much better but what a price to pay!

    Fitted my new wheels, eventually these will have track day rubber on and the standard 18's will be for everyday use.

    Probably going to plastidip them and make some carbon centre caps....
     
  31. Spent the whole of yesterday cleaning it.

  35. Had braided brake lines fitted and the MOT done
     
  36. Would it not of been easier to pop the grills out ?
     
  37. Bought some supertech pistons..
     
  38. Did attempt to get them out but they seemed really fragile and didn't wanna break any of the clips that hold them in, didn't take long to get it taped up with them in though
     
  39. Quite a lot - wheels off wash, iron-x the wheels and arches etc, fitted some TPI Polarised wheel bolts, new wiper blades, front mudguards, cleaned the engine bay and the interior. A busy day yesterday...
     
  40. What's the easiest / safest way to clean engine bay ?
