very shamful to admit....but my missus drives a Honda civic with a SPORTIVO sticker on the back...

yes, uyes, sad, but she does...and i occasionally have to drive it also, fluffy toys and all.

i guess my 250rkw 32 makes up for it ;)

Saw this in northern China recently. Modified cars and sports cars are extremely rare in China as the rich people mainly focus on luxury/prestige brands. Thought I'd share. Sorry for the low-res iphone pic, but the badges say BMW M3. The bodykit is probably something some guy knocked up in his garage. The exhaust pays homage to the 100kw under the hood lol.

The base car is called a Brilliance BS4. I think the name says it all.

I thought the previous car was a gem, but this one takes the cake. Can't believe I forgot I had this on my phone. Once again, in China.

Even though I have no idea what the base car is, he's probably tripled its value with the bodykit and stickers.

Note the TRD, Citreon, Honda Type-R and Nissan GT-R decals. I know China's the home of rice but this is a bit too far lol.

Spotted a beast of an Hyundai Excel of the Calder Fwy out near Sunbury on Tuesday night.

Dark blue, fully kitted up with bonnet scoops, gauges including oversize rpm gauge. If the iphone could take a decent pic I would have one, but thats obviously not the case.

I was VERY impressed. I'm surprised the guy/girl could get the car rolling with all that extra weight.

there is a saab which ive spotted many times driving down bell street which is green with bright baby blue racing stipes and a v8 twin turbo sticker on the side and a massive baby blue spoiler and a huge SAAB sticker on the front window

from what i saw it was a business man driving the car.. so i guess his midlife crisis may have sent him a little crazy...

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
