Looks like mine needs a bit of love with the sandpaper - probably been cooked by burnt oil

No - it's my oil cap it won't go over ..... it sort of goes over it but doesn't quite go flush, not like the water bottle - the strut caps are a lovely fit though!

 

[probee]

Ahhh I see

I was worried the strut caps would foul on the adjusters on the KW's

 

[UncleFester]

I wasn't - i don't have them

 

[Skorchio]

LOL I think nick knows all about bad drivers on roundabouts

Its peoples lane dicaplin that makes me so angry.

 

[probee]

Nick do you ever read your posts before you hit the go button

 

[Skorchio]

No

[probee]

Thanks

Very nice LCR!!

Agree with turbo's comment. Now i have a question if you dont mind. What is it that you will be gaining from the water/methanol injection is this to save on fuel. Not very clever when it comes to mechanics.

Hi mark... There are quite a few benefits, like reducing knock so you can advance the timing/run more boost (this time of year I run max settings anyway so no gain there).. It also lowers your EGT and adds approx 5 octane (@ 50/50)....

Let's not forget how cool it looks

 

[probee]

here are the the before and afters of the meth... although i have lost torque it is a much wider, flatter band and you can really feel that theres more up top now.

im still thinking about running a stronger mix and chatting to DanGB @ AMD on sunday has made me think i should just do it.

before

after

 

[jonjay]

Well @ 7rpm you got 20lb/ft more... so peak figure is down but you got more torque for longers sweet

 

[probee]

yeah... swings and roundabouts mate...

the runs at the weekend were over 1 second sooner than they were before..... is it quicker to the redline now?

im quite impressed with the new curve

Another amazing LCR, as said in Skorchio's thread one of my favourite LCR's. its good to follow these threads and increase my knowledge (which is very little). can't wait till i get to see it. yours and nicks LCR's are like sex on wheels for me lol

 

[probee]

hehe... im sure youde rather be looking at other things of beauty.

 

[Nimzy]

My Ultimate goal in life, hot chick in an LCR, cant get better then that, sorry let me re-phrase that hot chick in either yours or nicks LCR hehe.

You almost done with your car now or you still got yet more plans for it??

 

[probee]

youre female.... right???

im was only thinking the other day if i was now finished. i think i might be. i do need to tidy some areas a little but its almost there.
