This just shows why the 'I got X miles for X tiny amount of pounds found down the back of the sofa' result for fuel consumption is not worth the internetz it's printed on. GLWTS. |

It only did that on half a tank or less so I'll report back on that soon:-) £57 for a full tank and I got back with just under 3/4. Mind you it dissappears so fast as soon as it's past half a tank. No doubt the fuel gauge is a total liar but it's a nice thought that It got me home on seemingly very little. ________________________________________ Beef Beyond Belief |

Used this stuff although it was bigger sheets. most of the roof, boot area and floor plan areas are now coveted and it made a surprisingly good difference. Took away a lot of that boomy resonating noise. ________________________________________ Beef Beyond Belief |

Photobucket is back phew.. I'll upload new pics tomorrow, for now just a snap of the cage. I might have the bonnet and wheels sprayed gloss black and pop a 205 PTS sticker on the front like I had in my spare bonnet on my old s1.

Few snaps from last night still not washed but it looked kinda mean just sitting there. I think it may need a new battery or alternator because it takes a few seconds for light to come on, dials to light up and rev counter to start working when I start the car. Other than that it behaves and drives faultlessly, smooth and quiet engine on idle, oil is clean, compression is spot on and even and power deliver is very linear and smooth with a nice 'on cam' kick past 5k. Also fitted an OMP upper strut brace and removed it a day later! It made the car oversteer a bit too much for my liking, and sudden at that. The lower is still on and firm the turn in enough for my liking. I'd still have the upper on it there was full interior or more weight in the back. Come payday the wheels and roof will be sprayed gloss black.    ________________________________________ Beef Beyond Belief |

today I gave the old whip a quick clean and removed the white circles on the door. Won't be doing any events in it, just the odd track day. Also put an old aux belt to good use to make up some 'light weight' door door handles! I'm after some lighter wheels so anyone with S2 steels or C5 steels get in touch:-)     ________________________________________ Beef Beyond Belief |

The car did the weirdest thing earlier.. Went for a very chilled ten mind drive to a local nature reserve where I jog. I returned 45mins later, key on first click and played some music while I catch my breath. No other cars around so I left the music playing while I sat on a bench and chilled. Now the battery decharges quickly if I was to play music or leave headlights on for instance. I figured I best not risk a flat battery so I fired her up. .... Strong smell of petrol and only ran on three cylinders.. It was smoking out the exhaust, blue smoke. Now I've recently done a compression test and it was perfectly even across all 4 doesn't use oil or water, never overheats and is always warmed up and the engine is cared for, oil comes our as clean as it went in. So I was sure head gasket was fine. I turned it off. Swore at it and started it again, back on 4cylinders but still smoking. I drove it up the road, smoke got less and less, totally clearing after a mile or two. Got it home, let it cool down then checked coolant, oil, and leaks or anything unusual and reset ecu. Took it for a proper drive, left it and no smoke on startup few mind later. Also no smoke if I coast it Down a steep hill in gear. I'm thinking something like one lazy injector due to near flat battery and lazy alternator ? Oil got in there somewhere and make it smoke? Weird s**t, really had me worried for a second. This is by far the smoothest, best looked after and eager non cammed 16v engine I've had. Rather it didn't mess about after having had no issues since fitting it last year. ________________________________________ Beef Beyond Belief |
