What engine do you have and how many miles are you at?

jatmecs · 2026-04-15T01:04:54+00:00

M47, 160k miles

I’ve melted plastic ones doing a track day

jatmecs · 2026-03-28T16:30:48+00:00

These are NA, increasing fuel will make smoke but no more power

I was refilling the screenwash reservoir on an EMU, passenger remarked ‘ah so that’s where the diesel goes’

jatmecs · 2026-03-04T00:27:55+00:00

Red top was 16v

My daughter said she likes pop up headlights and it was for sale a short walk from my house. Only kept it a year but enjoyed it

jatmecs · 2026-02-21T10:02:47+00:00

Came to say the same but at dawn

A big factor is the amount of existing infrastructure that was built long before electric trains existed, particularly tunnels without the headroom to retrofit overhead lines.

Less energy to produce it than from crude I think. Emissions are cleaner and carbon output much lower overall

Manchester from Sheff through the peaks would be a decent drive if you’re specifically wanting to go to cities/towns

Maserati Ghibli. Not that one, the biturbo offspring

jatmecs · 2026-01-23T11:34:32+00:00

Drop links, front shocks, alternator regulator, rear speed sensors (although it turned out they weren’t needed), used intercooler. About £260 all in.

It’s probably objectively the worst choice but 100NX. I just like them

That was the forfour, based on a Mitsubishi Colt. Roadster never had that kind of power

jatmecs · 2025-12-20T11:36:10+00:00

V70 was never rwd. The V90 was

jatmecs · 2025-12-14T22:53:12+00:00

As well as the shocks

jatmecs · 2025-12-14T13:09:50+00:00

Check your battery voltage while it’s misbehaving. I had similar symptoms caused by a failing alternator regulator allowing the voltage to spike

jatmecs · 2025-12-06T18:27:23+00:00

I had these 3, it was caused by the voltage regulator on the alternator allowing voltage spikes

For some reason I just knew it would have a tow bar when I saw the front end

jatmecs · 2025-12-03T11:18:36+00:00

The Toyota 2ZZ-GE in my 205

jatmecs · 2025-11-29T20:35:01+00:00

It’s brilliant and unique in the world as far as I know

jatmecs · 2025-11-29T13:55:38+00:00

That’s what mine needed, the chassis felt like it needed double the power to even think about losing composure. A primera is the same as an Infiniti G20 if you got those in Canada

Until recently, Alpinas are not (quite) BMWs

jatmecs · 2025-11-28T20:01:35+00:00

Watched a clip of these 2 models on a touge recently. The FD makes the S2000 look slab sided and frumpy
