  1. they reckon the life expectancy is around 50,000 miles!!
  2. depends,garret gt20 is standard, but they do hybrid/uprated turbos for LR, gives better performance throughout the rev's (less lag) but the vnt is available for £900
  3. better answer that mine is the manifold glowing??
  4. 'innocent until proven guilty' springs to mind, unless you no for a fact that they don't for now we will say they do. (please prove me wrong) on there website it lists all mods and what bhp they offer, now surly if they didn't use a dyno, and all the figures are guess/estimates they could be taken to court for miss advertising/fraud? so if so, customers would 'sue there ass off'
  5. i found that out when ordering the cheapest part and it wasn't britpart i wish it was handy for me!!!!! i dont think 340miles/7 hour driving, round trip isn't financially viable!! :(
  6. but you cant just replace the turbo with a bigger one, fuel system needs mod's e.g., remap then larger intercooler is the customary start point, the garret turbo seem to be popular, with a few other tweaks, 200bhp can be achieved easy
  7. ive only used them once, ok service but nothing to party about but i always use famous four until there prices doubled!!
  8. by the sounds of it, you've had a runaway diesel!! if it was only 5sec the temp MAY not of hit the 'beyond repair' moment but the turbo WILL need replacing/rebuilt. but i suspect best option is a full rebuild i take it look something like this, just not as bad? after your experience, i would of needed fresh underwear! and the answer to why is. http://en.wikipedia...._engine_runaway gives a detailed description of the fault and how to stop the engine in the process. lets just hope no green right activists seen the incident !! i hope this helps you!
  9. cant personally recommend any but if your interested in the draper, at least get it somewhere cheaper link and a real cheapy (under £120) which shows it folded up aswell link HTH
  10. ah Nige, hijack time learning time what does megasquirt do? increase/improve bhp, torque, mpg, throttle response? remove 'flat spots'? why is it so much ££? decrease engine wear? is there a final version? why/are there on going problems? can it be done to any petrol engine, not just V8's? answer it as if you were explaining to a child please cheers James
  11. this might not help but if i was you i would print that off as evidence 'just in case' someone gets a bit.......
  12. actually i lied! there are a couple i wave to, 90 v8 because I WANT IT!! and a 130HC because he waves to me, 'weirdos' the awesome thing is, i dont drive a LR, i ride bike i reckon there psycho powers no i own i 2a wrapped in a poly tunnel!
  13. aint it weird waving to randomers? and vise versa?
  14. in other words i got to get out more!!
  15. of course it has different number plates, the new owner changed them to his plates, a legal requirement on any trailer!!
  16. welcome! :D electric windows, there are many kits on the market, its just the case of finding them. but here are a couple to get you going in the right direction! i think Chelsea tractor did this to his 2001 td5, ask him. i hope this helps http://www.spalautomotive.co.uk/acatalog/SPAL_ELECTRIC_WINDOW_CONVERSION_KITS.html http://www.mm-4x4.co...90110-636-p.asp http://www.ebay.co.u...2&_qi=RTM637056
  17. if the tires have the same outer diameter i wont affect the mpg, but low profiles will affect your ride comfort. HTH
  18. so no NOS?? well fairplay! that would explain all the aerials! 7 right? what are the oil dials for? gearbox and transfer box? O/D, no lever? at £1000 i hope is worth it! is it? does im make a difference to top end speed and mpg?
  19. cheers guys, but only rallying Ive seen is a citron c4 hit a cow and Range Rover was in 1970? im thinking series 1 in 1948?! lol so this is going to be like a newer version of chad taylors creation?? (if your wondering what the creation is... but it had a sad ending!
  20. what the?? what with all the gadgets and dials?? and why has gear knob got a button? NOS??
  21. i could never have one¬!!!! talking to strangers? it will only end one way!!!! :hysterical:
