  1. Pair of new Brembo brake discs, 312mm. 09.7880.10. Collection from South Oxfordshire (Wallingford) or Warwickshire (Southam) £40
  2. Afternoon all, The VR is sporadically starting which I've put down to the immobiliser however, I'm struggling to find my way to the black box behind the drivers side dash without blinding myself with the electrical loom insulating foam getting in my eyes. When I wiggle the cable going from the ignition coil to the box it will occasionally start but I would like to have a look and see what is going on properly. I've removed the plastic from around the steering column and the plastic dash under tray but the metal frame prevents me getting any deeper. Can someone please ad
  3. Bonjour all, For the past few weks now my 97 VR6 has been playing up. It turns over fine but sometimes it doesnt start. When it did eventually start it ran fine so i tried taking the crank sensor out and giving it a bit of a clean and put it back in with the hope it might fix the starting issue. Now i still have the same propblem but when it does start it doesn't idle until the car has warmed up and I have to keep the pedal down or else the revs just drop until it dies. It also sounds like it is misfiring at low revs but is fine over about 1.5k. Another thing i have noticed is that it
  4. Waiting for payday for new brake pads :-( get well soon buddy
  5. Cool: Buying new bits for the VR. Not cool: When the missus finds where I hide all my invoices for parts and tools.
  6. My crappy internet covered half of the button with the main menu. Perhaps I should get the app instead of using browser:-/
  7. I've managed to zoom on my house but how do I drop a pin to say where I am
  8. My water level isn't dropping though so don't think it's that.
  9. I "acquired" some big silica bags from work and left them on the dash. They only seemed to clear the bottom third of the window screen. My floor may is soaking though leading me to think I could have a hole under the carpet
  10. New power steering pump as my return hose outlet pipe split on a car park kerb
  11. I've heard people have had trouble doing the 312mm front brake conversion with 16" alloys, just wondered if anyone has tried it with 16" Borbet A wheels? Wanted a bit of advice if they'd fit before I shelled out for the disks and pads. Thanks in advance.
  12. I need to change the disks and pads anyway and have some goodridge hoses to go on when I do the work. I have found some drilled and grooved Brembo disks and pads for £90 so might try them
  13. Finally getting round to fitting bigger brakes on the car but unsure which disks and pads would make a good combo without costing the earth. I was looking at EBC ultimax disks and yellow stuff pads but heard the pads are crap. Any suggestions or input will be greatly appreciated.
  14. Why do people get a 6 branch manifold and what performance benefits can you expect from one roughly? Sorry for the noob question
  15. I had this problem on a old VR of mine and found whoever had put the fan plug back on had bent the electrical pins so might be worth a quick look if you haven't already.
  16. Filled my sump with silver solder and put and new sump plug in seeing as a crappy speed bump sheared my old one in half
