  4. New exhaust fitted today, is loud as I love it and makes it sound more like a race car, and got rid of the dirty singaporean cat too. Got the seat rail re welded too, make it a bit stronger, is now fitted back to the seat with my fire extinguisher. Pimp as race stickers arrived in the mail and have been fitted. Pics to come

    M40 Flatspot

    Nah it has always had it, I only really noticed it on the track before I modded it, its like its stuttering/hesitating and not getting enough air/fuel mix right or something. I am sure its something to do with the AFM/Intake area. Cheers Moonbeams, I will get onto that Its like I put my foot down to rev it out, and it either stutters completely (like dies) or it just has a sudden loss of power and feels like its only making 50hp let alone 100 and then it clicks back to normal, (always at full throttle in the higher rev range i.e 4k plus for a 1600 motor, red line is 6,5 Any advice or pointers is appreciated. Has had new plugs, oil change etc

    ^ I was waiting for someone to say it. Just wait till I skool you on the track. Does anyone have any serious pointers to what It could be? Have had the AFM cleaned, oil change, new spark plugs. What about intake boot leaking? Mine is cracked but not split

    So been for a few spirited drives now, and have a flatspot in 2nd and occasionally third gear where it feels like the car wants to surge but it can't like it wants to back fire. I was thinking maybe the airflow meter or a loss of vacume somewhere? Anyone with any pointers would be appreciated. m40 1.6 Custom Airbox and Pod Filter. Cheers, Nathan
  9. +1 I just use sockets with the angle of the seat changed with the handle, either up or down depending on which side I need to unbolt

    E30 320i Racecar

    I had this problem. Lucky found some old ones, when we go to the dump to weigh our cars there is a old recycling center store there, probably find some there. Or Can go halves with you on a 2x 4 piece of alloy for 37.00 each haha
