  • How far you can rev the engine? 8 Feb 2010 (Forum)
    What is the max RPM you can take engine up to? My Suzuki's M13A (car not motorcycle) engine goes fine upto 6000 RPM and redline is at 6500 RPM. Over 4000 RPM I can really feel the extra power (heard that 2nd valve kicks in at that RPM). I very rarely go to 6000 RPM level but does it damage
  • BMW 3-Series E46 (1998 - 2005) - 03 3.0 Views on wheel spacers 20 May 2009 (Forum)
    What are the views on fitting wheel spacers ----- say 10/12mm max so fairly modest. I'm thinking of fitting some to my rear wheels in order to fill out the arches. There is sufficient clearance and this is alot cheaper than buying new wheels. I'm a bit concerned that doing so will increase

  • VW Bora - temperature gauge prob 9 Mar 2007 (Forum)
    the engine is at ambient temperature, the needle stays at 50 degrees. the antifreeze is at max, and i have a feeling it might be the temperature sensor located at the bottom of the expansion tank where the antifreeze is topped up. Am i right in thinking this? Thanks for your responses in advance! Skiddy
  • Vroom Vroom 23 Apr 2006 (Forum)
    Am I the only one who sat through this?. Just in case I am, think Max Power meets Saturday morning kids TV show, only alot more dangerous. Their "star in a fur covered car" came very close to losing her right hand when her car flipped over and she instinctively reached out to brace herself

    ...that's big enough for my drumkit (at least focus - sized), budget of max £8,000. What car would people recommend for reliability and safety?
