Hi, I've recently purchased the indigo blue 4motion lovingly built by Bungy Strange world... I met Bungy at the club annual meet in 2011 having just bought my own ,Silver, 4motion Inspired by marks enthusiasm and ideas I set about making a few changes to my own car Fast forward to this year and having decided the silver car was Probably not worth continuing with, despite serving me well, I started looking for a new project I'd followed the blue cars progress, much like many others, and always wondered What it would end up being Well, now maybe I'll find out I can't promise to be as thoro

Using which fuel? Unleaded or Premium Unleaded
lbsbloke replied to murphyslaw's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
I use both in my 4mo and theres a definate drop in average MPG on 95 ron petrol compared to 97 or 99 , about 4-5 mpg over a week which pretty much outweighs the extra cost of the better juice .......well thats what I`ve convinced myself anyway -
just sold a set of 4 with goodyear tyres on for £175.00 , that seems to be about the value
-
Hi Bungy .... any noticeable , real improvements with the BMC ?
-
need a new air filter for the 4MO , whats the common verdict ............ panel filter ( K&N , Pipercross etc.) or induction kit , cheers
-
had a knocking noise on my 4mo , sounded like it was coming from the rear ... passenger side ...... replaced all the stuff you mentioned , checked everything out at least 3 times ! turned out to be the lower ball joint on front .... sound really seemed to be coming from the back and it wasnt just me that thought so
-
oh yeah ... and H & R anti roll bars , sharpen up the steering , not a massive spend on all the above but a car transformed
-
stock R32 springs and dampers on mine , handles fine and ride quality is good .... although I`m sure you can get as good a deal with coilovers , milltech exhaust and remapped ( have a word with Jim Potter on here ) goes like stink and sounds lovely - thats the car not Jim

VRStig ..... thats good seeing as I have R32 springs and dampers fitted and beefed up ARB`s , excuse my ignorance of all this lol

I`ve decided to replace my corroded santa monica 17" alloys for something shiny and new , got a style in mind that I`m happy with - just cant decide what size .... 17 or 18 " Aesthetically I prefer the 18 but dont want to compromise the handling and or ride if indeed this is the case , now obviously I cant try a set of 18`s out so was wondering what other 4mo owners thought /had experienced ???
