Yeah, take a bow Phil - I have had great service from OPMD. I used to deal with Draken in BC but they screwed me so I will not buy anything from them again - even if it's cheaper (which it won't be).

Hey ex miniman, hows this for an idea. Sell the XR you were given, add what you get to your $7.5k and buy a well soreted but scruffy XR & then put your spare time cleaning it up & sorting it out. Just a thought because you know you will probably never be able to get a return on your investme...

sure, as long as she solves UK's one as well! lol. She did & then the lefties got back in :wink: Canada is part of the USA now Oh great, I don't mind having to vote for one of the village idiots hoping to run "our"country next :shock: but if I can't legally import my RS I'm gonna get ...

Bloody hell, from where I stand he looks like an XR GOD to me!

Hey all you Carlisle judges out there - well done, good job, keep up the good work. (and thats from a guy who won bugger all)! :shock: Wilky PS: In the background to my video's I could have sworn I heard FastMaul say he wanted the finance job on the executive, Ed said he was buying a Honda Civic, Sa...

I'm told that R/H alternator bracket from '93 or '94 2.3 Ranger will mount where our A/C compressor used to be. Trying to find one is is like trying to find rocking horse s&%t though 'cos I'm looking for one!

My understanding is that a well designed plenum offers less restriction to the airflow and is a better fit under the hood than a rotated upper intake. I'll be interested in other responses though because I need to decide which way to go myself.

Looks good! That's the first time I've seen a 944 IC. Look forward to seeing pics of the final install. What rad fans are you going to use?

Anyone any thoughts on the muffler versus no muffler? My exhaust is a mix of rust, bandage, goop, hose clamps, patches & prayer (sounds great though) and will be replaced this winter.

OIL = BLUE SMOKE COOLANT = WHITE SMOKE Hmmm, I agree that this makes sense but my experience is different. Having plugged the turbo oil return line to stop it dribbling when the turbo was off I forgot to remove the plug when I put the turbo back on. :oops: End result was the thickest, densest, bigg...

Sock,

Stop typing and start putting that XR together - thats an order!!!

Carlisle is only 8 months away!

HA! Mine pissed it all down my leg while I was under there

Ha Ha, yeah me too & then when I got the T5 in Ben took it for a blast round the block with no speedo sensor & puked the whole lot in a lovely stain round the block - months later & it's still there.

If I ever wanted to do what wilky is doing, would it really be cheaper It certainly is for me but then I visit the UK regularly on business and so the flight is free and I have relatives in the UK so I can get the parts shipped to them. I also travel in first class which enables me to have more lug...
