And here is arond 3.4MB video of accelerations compiled, one 10-100kph, one 25-80kph mid revs and few other, all done pedal floored. Under 2000rpm acceleration is not so good ;)
Around 3000rpm intake makes nice sound :D

Holy thread-jack Batman!

Squeeky?!

Smoke is hard to capture on film in the quantities we can create on-road without causing trouble. Plus I don't like the idea of reducing my very nice tyres to lumps of molten rubber stuck to my wheelarches :P Besides, I'm taking no stick from anyone who didn't turn up :mrgreen:

cheers

1stRaven, I really liked all the lights on your previous car, especially the ones behind the grille. I couldn't remember where I'd seen a similar sort of picture, or if it was my imagination! The pic above is more like the angle of yours. The improved visibility is amazing with that grille, cheers Chris!

LOL, It is actually the picture angle oddly, as they are infact set too low, I've just not had time to adjust them yet, plus I have plans! I could never compete with those Xmas lights that were in MK! :lol: Not even if I put all of the lights on, on all of my cars!

1stRaven, that's a shame, as the hidden lights looked very neat indeed.

It is but i kept the lights and fitted them to my new one. Driving at night is a lot more safer with them plus if you flash anyone on the motorway, they get out of my way now!

A lesson in English there from Farmer Ryan :D

I've been considering fitting off-board high beams for the 'get out of my way' factor, but then the area which needs more improvement is dipped. I've got a devious plan there, but it involves some serious expense, so I'll have to think about it long and hard.
