WanabeGangster Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Dude, this car's gonna be crazy. Best of luck and hope it all goes well. So this means your 0-54mph will be slightly better than last time?!? The increased acceleration might even rip off the stainless steel door handles i sold ya!

After these bodies go on yours i might give it a go. Once i get a fecking gearbox anyway! Gettin my flywheel done at the same time. Might just put some cams, head work, exhaust & filter in and see where it goes. You got till e38 next year and i'll take you on! You might end up racing the convertible mind you, not that its 82bhp is gonna worry you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigz™ Posted January 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 Running will be great enough for me style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />So long as the imobilisor can be removed from the ECU I think it may be running for spring.Think I may have found a buyer for the Renault, so that should pay for the mapping time needed.Worst part to come though, gotta try and remember how to put it together again!

Tigz™ Posted January 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 1.0Just going to play with that one.Theres only one plug thats diffrent.Dont know what its for yet, but I think it wll easier to md my 1.0 look, than it would be to rewire the 1400 loom after the numpty who sold the egine cut it off instead of un plugging it at the bulk head!
