Will do mate, i need to get some Gas for it, and new wire, as the one has been sat in it for years and is rusty, but it worked enough to test it like bird poo to check all works, think its about 10-12 years old the guy bought it, then used it once for 40mins, i paid £120 and collected it locally, the new version of it retails at around £260-285.

[steviegsi]

:thumb: just trying to get a real idea for prices and what sort of power I need for eventual nova mincing.

i hope he wakes up screaming every night... i remember the m3 racers back in the day & the original group A 2.3 ones could beat a 600hp cossie sierra over 500 miles by a considerable amount & keep up with them in qualifying too.. the dtm ones were even faster...what does he do with this car? as there are no decent tracks anywhere near cornwall

[Nova-nation]

would he be just up the road? ;)

Well down the road... lol

Did you pay what he asked me for them? Hope not.

[Connor]

i hope it was the light blue one with all the decent technical info, not the green one with all the printed spanner things...

Didnt realise there was a different, worth getting the blue version in your opinion, i have autodata but thats not great for general info.

[TonySR]

Me neither. Will have to order a blue one then.

Today I had my '2nd year PNG Sticker' arrive, also 2 headlight clips (white plastic things), a model opel calibra and porsche 911 convertible on there own base plates.

[mowgli]

the green one has way less info than the old light blue one.

[Jack]

I think there's about 4 different versions in total? I'm sure there was a thread a while ago about what appeared on what page and thats what got people looking lol

[pie]

aint there one with a yellow nova on to?

[mowgli]

basically, you need the one with the 1.6 gte info, it has the mk1 updates in it.

the green one does have more mk2 specific stuff in, but they chopped out the proper engine/gearbox detail, and put that thing in which tells you if you need 1 spanner or 5

[TonySR]

Sad I know, but boredom struck and theirs 11 Haynes manuals...

[Keif]

Yep, good starter DSLR. I have a Canon 550D with a couple of Lens'. Awesome bit of kit, far cleverer than me.

As Jack says learn about shutter speeds, aperture and exposure and you'll be well away.

Nine times out of ten it's an electric razor, but every once in a while...

From an Izuzu trooper at a guess, my mate had the same in his as OE fitment, netted headrests are to prevent objects on the back seat/in the boot, striking the drivers head on the most unforgiving off-road circumstances, so im told!

Ahhh, right i thought you meant theyre to replace ones that are smashed and funked, my bad lol
Nah the originals are just worn to the limit.
Royal Fail being ruff as fukk as ever have undoubtedly smashed them in transit,that said,they werent wrapped at all well and its little wonder it happened.
Cue an email from yours truly venting my frustrations at them!!!
Whats even more annoying is that in 5mins i would have had it working again!

[autoworksnovasport]

got some carbon brushes to repair my washing machine which are fu*ked (thats why you bought newones)

or

got some carbon brushes to repair my washing machine which are fu*ked (broken in transit)


:)

[Andy]

true,i wrote it in red mist lol they had literally just arrived in pieces lol
You dont realise how much you rely on washing machines till they balls up

[Spudly]

Only problem with emailing them now, is that noone will be there to read it till tuesday most likely now, so that means even more waiting to find out if theyre going to reissue some and wrap them properly!

[Andy]

exactly so its going to be next weekend before some more arrive hence my ranty sh1tty attitude lol
Have obviously me,our lass and 2 kids clothes that wash,and then my work clothes and cloths and scrims.So you can imagine why im angry lol

Does it work? How much you want for it? I think I may have been screwed around my some dodgy seller, currently trying to find why the DV isn't working. Possible seals have gone/leak in the system.

thats why it doesnt work then lol and you are aware that if you use electric trickery to make it work then it will make your car slower?

[TeddyThom]

Why don't it work then? The thread I found seemed to indicate that it should work...

[burgo]

ok it wont operate in the "normal" sense and as said will make your car slower. on a petrol when the butterfly shuts it creates a wall in affect. on the inlet side of the "wall" vacuum is created which is used to open the dump valve. on the turbo side of the "wall" as the turbo is still spinning it continues to create pressure to the point where so much pressure is created it overcomes the turbo and makes it stall which means as you open the throttle the turbo needs to spool up again aka lag. fitting a dump valve releases this pressure so the turbo doesn't stall and therefore reducing lag.

on a diesel you don't have a butterfly. which means no turbo stall or lag instead you have a constant positive pressure which is good as you come back onto the throttle you have full power available straight away. if you choose to dump out this pressure you need to wait for it to build again hence making it slower.

that seems a very long winded way of putting it but meh i think i makes sense.

[Jack]

Could be leaking as the neck is painted.

As Burgo said, its not ideal on a derv. Its possible to fit, but you need a microswitch that opens it up and what not - I had all this on the cav but had spud remove it before picking the car up.

That aside, the bailey I have is good. Tested it on the Celica when I thought the Forge one might have been leaking so I can vouch for it being Ok.

[TeddyThom]

I have the micro switch etc. the dump valve will open only if I completely crimp one of the pipes. Then and only then does it open.
