Yeh, they were pretty good results for 'drop in' cam's... Corten Miller were saying that they are some of the best improvements they have seen with no tweaks, or dial in etc...

Some cam's only make 5hp, some have been know to loose some, its very hit and miss. But these have given improvements across the whole range! Definately worth the money.

We shall get to the bottom of it, I'm just trying to source a new PCV to replace...

Hello All!

A little bit of an update from me...

I de-wipered the rear screen, as the Almera has a stupid set up meaning that the wiper sits in the middle of the window when not in use. (But also it didn't work... Upon removal I found that one of the connectors to the motor had burnt out.) It looks much better now anyway.

I also fitted a De-cat on Sunday... (previously had a sports-cat, which I fitted on the off-chance of it getting through MOT's. But it fails, meaning that I have to put the cat back on everytime anyway, so I thought, may as well be a De-cat Smile )
So it's a touch louder now and a little more responsive. Good times!

I will put some fresh pics up soon, but she is in need of a good scrub and some TLC. I have also got my OJC stickers waiting to go on, so I shall be reppin' as soon as she is clean!

Well its bad news..... Had some old lady pull out in front of me, I managed to avoid the full face of my car going into the side of her as I steered to try and get round her, but she stopped dead in the road, meaning I didn't have much of a chance, so the impact happened on my drivers side corner.

Well, I'm gutted, something similar happened a year (ish) ago when someone pulled out on me, but this time it's the other side.

Definately an insurance write off this time, as its worse then the last time. The only reason it wasn't written off last time is because I knew somebody at a body repair center that could get around it, even then it was border line.... Unfortunately I don't have this option this time.

So anyway, some pics.... Sad

From this angle you can see the lights have been pushed back...

In the pics it doesn't look too bad, but there is the damage that you can see, plus all the fixings behind, radiator has been pushed back too... The wing is fubarred and flared, possibly the bonnet too as there is damage to the corner....

Due to the value of the car and the damage I described, my insurance company are sending it straight to salvage for classification.


Its definately going to be a category C or D... (Well I can't see it being worse then that)

So my intention is to take the payout for the car, and buy it back at 10%. Then I will break it for parts to try and build up the funds for something new. Although, I do have a massive amount of love for this car, so if I can't find something I want, I might repair it after buying it back, we shall see, as I have a lot to think about.



Cheers for now!
