 Elite Veteran Posts: 788    Location: Sussex | I finally got round to buying a new car, after selling the r100 back at the start of June. Picked it up on Tuesday, needs some niggly problems sorting but hopefully I have got a bargain: 1995 Eunos Roadster 1.8 (S-Special Type 2). Apparently one of 97 made in this colour       | ||

"MG Metro 1300" Location: Warwickshire, UK | What I dont get is why on Jap cars with Jap performance parts does the airfilter generally go towards the back of the engine bay?  Edited by JamieS 17/7/2008 8:30 AM | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 788 Location: Sussex | JamieS - 17/7/2008 2:29 PM What I dont get is why on Jap cars with Jap performance parts does the airfilter generally go towards the back of the engine bay? because to have it near the front would just be sensible? I have already replaced that filter with a stock airbox for now, it was too far gone to be any use | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 788 Location: Sussex | I plan on turbo'ing it, but not yet. It is booked in for 4 wheel alignment on saturday to check that the chassis isn't bent or similar. It feels a bit weird to be driving a sports car which is slower than a metro  | ||

Veteran Posts: 378 Location: Gillingham, Kent | supercharging is more common on these engine than the turbo. and imagine listening to it whine as you drive with the roof open!!!  | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 788 Location: Sussex | Of course I knew it would be slower (for now ) but knowing that I used to have a metro which was quicker than this, is a funny feeling. To get back to metro vvc power/weight levels, this car needs to jump from 130bhp to just under 200bhp turbo vs supercharger is a massive ongoing debate on all the mx5 forums, the whine must be nice - for about 10 minutes! I could imagine it getting really annoying? Edited by Andyzim 17/7/2008 11:31 AM | ||
