I think it's time I dropped in, as it's been a while... :lol: I'll keep it very short and sweet: I bought it back years later and I still have it to this day. I haven't done very much with it unfortunately, but that'll change someday I found a video of it afterwards from the outside, as I don't thin...

Cheers! But like all good things, they have to come to an end sometime :cry: Time I closed the book on my fantastic daily driver Since the engine was done I covered 4k miles in it in I think 6 weeks.... There was one week I had over 600 miles put up in 2 days, I was looking to blitz well into the 10...

Time I poked my head in again.... :wink: Lets wind the clock back to March.... I needed my car back and fast. Onwards and upwards! https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-cDG7O3X-Kak/UuBZnCjfWlI/AAAAAAAABr8/sDSK7EwCpQY/s912/Image1124.jpg https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-VraCFFjgMEE/UuBZnp1LN4I/AAAAAAAA...

I feel like I've been ripped off, have this rwd car and no snow for it!

Sorry only saw this now! New plugs definitely improved starting, still takes about 3 or 4 cranks though. I serviced the car myself the other night as it happens, squeezed the primer a good few times and she fired up first time so there could definitely be a little air in the fuel lines but it's not...

Howya Matt ;) Gates/Contitech is what I'd go for myself. Kits cost £70 from the local motor factors. I use first line stats and pumps, no problem with them. There were 2 types, I had the cheaper £15 version thankfully :cheesy: Whats up with the pulley? Is it damaged? I use a puller to remove mine, o...

Time for mr Fiat head to come in.... Feckin Stilos anyway :roll: Reset the ECU: unplug the battery and leave overnight. Plug again in the morning. Start, let idle for 5 mins, drive off. Turning but non starter: check the crank sensor, make sure the key is disarming the immobiliser. What lights are o...

Time I poked my head in here again :cheesy: As of the 5th of Jan, I'll have this car a year :cheesy: Since the K14-2 swap, this car is an EPIC daily driver. Very few can outpace it, as a young fella in a WRX found out one night at the lights :cheesy: :cheesy: :cheesy: Not much has changed, although ...

It's just more developing for me.... Looking to try and fit a Sofim 2.8 air cleaner infront of the box! :shock: For now, I've assembled a pipe from a Volvo and 2 Ivecos :P https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-5dwRcCEOc5M/Uf1UVurBi3I/AAAAAAAABEo/mIALEUD5TD8/s1024/Image871.jpg https://lh5.googleusercont...

Looking good dude, the effort you put in is mega, are you going to plumb in a intercooler cos you'll need it with th boost temp's that bad boy could run :twisted: Cheers! They come with an intercooler as standard, was looking to fit one from an Iveco but it's huge :shock: Something else might crop ...

And the saga continues.... :wink: First, Irish laundered diesel problem in a nutshell. Off with the sender https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-UaSHkiTfH0w/UdyRlX9RdII/AAAAAAAAA58/zV-OlkrKrnw/s1024/Image798.jpg Traditional ring too big for hole :evil: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-wJO0CGnnLQ4/Udy...

I learned how to work picasa somewhat better! :cheesy: Fuel filters don't last long here due to the washed diesel epidemic https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-nI9RqyMxmY8/UcOE0jehArI/AAAAAAAAAwo/NAh7W-g_UYs/s1024/Image751.jpg 5k Miles :shock: https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-JefOf8G64TQ/UcOE251KiuI...

With a few issues to address with the TB25, not much more I can do for the mo.... Plenty of driving about though. With 20psi of boost and a Transit spring in for a gov the power is there when I need it.... It'll do for now :cheesy: https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-P-otBMU53cY/UcyvIlgX-zI/AAAAAAAAA...

Nope - Rapier just had black cloth. Rapier is positioned between LX and GLX - both of which have manual cloth seats. It's still nicer than the LX spec I had when I had a saloon. If you wanted half-leather, you'd need to look out for a D9-model SRi or SE. All the others had either full cloth or full...

Welcome! Rapier is a D9 spec, half leather, alloys, climate control etc. Worth going for one over the base model
