I have had an ACT heavy duty organic in my SR for well over 7 years. No issues what so ever and didn't break the bank IIRC. I am running at around 280.
This was all down to a broken Maf in the end. No boost leak. Car pulls like a train now, must have been dodgy for a while....
Broken Maf it was =)
Well I have a second hand part on order so will report back. Anyone with experience with a broken Maf please let me know! =)
Would it cause the engine to run that bad though? I literally cannot raise the revs above idle without misfire....
Hi guys, while cleaning my MAF I managed to touch one of the wires. I did this as part of changing my alternator belt at the same time. I now have savage misfire at anything other than idle.
I...
Nope just when held at 2500 rpm in idle and theb let off the throttle. Bang bang bang lol.
Thanks hooky I will check!
This has only happened after changing alternator belt, before everything was fine with no misfire. Also idles just fine, this is only when on throttle.
Could a missing jubilee clip on recirc dump valve (top rubber hose, not hard pipe from pressure side) cause this? I will check everywhere else, but I am assuming wmic...
Hi, I have changed my alternator belt on my s14a and I now have running issues. The car idles ok, but when you increase the revs the engine seems to misfire. I have tried to drive it and very low on...
I refitted mine after fitting solid bushes, they weigh naff all and I would rather have extra bracing even if they are made redundant by the solid bushes.
I would say together they weigh less...
How low does the centre section sit? I had this issue and it turns out the rubber block holding the downpipe/cat bracket to gearbox was knackered.
The result was a low centre section leading to...
Hi guys I have searched for my problem but cannot see any with quite the same symptoms as mine.
I have recently done a rear end refurb with the subframe and fuel tank being removed. I have added...
Hi guys, I have nearly finished my refurb on the rear (subframe removal etc etc) and I have taken pictures of everything apart from the one thing that I needed a picture for!
The last job I have...
Where abouts are you rocker? Im near ipswich also, any chance i could have a nose at your set up?
TBH I think I will get the comfys.. 90% of my driving will be B roads with occational trackday. I think comfys will give the best of both worlds. I dont want to trawl ebay for a new spine after a...
At the moment im looking to get the 5/4s, just dont want them to be to soft.
sliding.. how are the roads round your area?
Keep em coming folks.. need your opinions!
Themostat - I had the 1.7 engine in a fiesta years ago and the symptoms you discribe point to the themostat.
The heater control valve is also a bugger - one winter mine decided to pack up.......
Hi guys,
I have done plenty of seaching on the above topic to no avail!
I am going to be ordering coilovers for my S14a, however i am unsure wether to go with the 5/4 comfys or 6/5 fast road....
Thanks for the help guys, I will have a thorough look at your thread Ady, hopefully give me something to aim for!
I have found one hole so far (underneath some good condition seam sealer front of...
Autoglass replaced my rear quarter near side last year, perhaps worth a call?
Apologies, seam sealer would be added after removing the factory stuff to check, got it all sitting with me so no problems there :thumbs:
OK so it all has to come off? no problem, just wasnt sure...
Hi guys, i have had a good search about on here, and spent a few hours reading through Petrols thread :wack: but cannot find what i am after.
I have the rear underside of my S14a stripped (no...
Its red, my previous one was black with cloth interior.. I have been addicted to these motors since i was 15 (25 now!) My neighbor used to own a black touring model with subtle mods, used to dribble...
