Today i decided to pull the plenium off to change the spark plugs.While it was off i got a mate to polish it and my god it came up so good.!
But once i went to put everything back on and take it for a drive i found it drove like a pig.Engine light came on,AYC light was on and i thought i really f***ed something.Turns out that when i removed the plenium i was a dumb ass and removed the throttle position sensor,and when i refitted it ,i put it on wrong and the car ran terrible,it hunted, had no acceleration off take off and engine light was on.I found this problem easily enough.
I have no idea why the AYC light was coming on but i pulled out the relay and it seemed to reset it and no its fine.Was totally worth the bling plenium i think!!!

yeah.. but:

1. is his the ralliart version?
2. even if it is, everyone will think its fake due to the fake ralliart parts and stickers everywhere.
3. ralliart versions of things arnt that fanstatic.

personally i want to stay away from the ralliart/ricer propaganda as it cheapens ur car. but thats just me..

The Ralliart version is the Super VR-4 which is probably the slowest VR-4 ever due to the extra weight of the body kit :D
