Forums Forums Johnny Alan: 02 MG TF

yeah, mine would be black but i have black logos on them, everyone has silver, be different, black!!!

I like them in black matey, makes the car look a bit more aggressive.

Watch the Gforce meters, I know a few people on the SXOC who have bought them, and despite their reassurance that they are accurate, they are not.

BHP Figures can be as much as 100bhp different from a RR, and 0-60, 1/4 miles times etc are seconds out, not fractions of seconds.

i know, i remember a lad who had one at mnr, he was convinced that his 1.2 clio could do 0-62 mph in 5.7 seconds, when asked how he replied, my g force meter told me so

LOL

I have tried this on a 2.0 golf which has 115bhp at the flywheel and I got 99 bhp at the wheels according to the gtech pro, this seems realistic and 0-60 was near 11sec which according to the book is similar. I know the spec on my mgtf 0-60 6.9sec and 160bhp at the fly so am looking at getting somewhere around 140-145 on the gtech reading. It is important that when you put the cars mass in you make an allowance for yourself and all fluids fuel etc. Fortunatley I have a weight bridge in work will will get a accurate weight reading with me in it.

Am going to be bidding on this sometime in the week, it is a front splitter as shown in the pic. Will definatly get it as it has a £50 buy it now but just want to see if I can get it cheaper lol.

Looks nice that splitter, will deffo suit the car, finish the front styling off a treat.

mate, my mum needs a perm next week for a wedding, are you available?

Only joking fella, ive always liked them and always fancied one in british racing green, but that colour is nice.

Good little cars, although i reckon i might have gone with an MX5 for comparable money?

Well been a while since I have been here but since I have been away I have started getting the modding bug lol. well here is a list and pics of what I have done:

Pipercross induction kit just to improve the noise side of things more than performance.

A set of mike saturn rear lights using fiat coupe rear clusters

A few small bit of alloy trim for the dash eg back pannels and rings for clocks etc

A chrome ashtray which I got from a old jaguar xj6 which is identical to mg's optional extra item at a fraction of the price (£10 compared to £60)

Am planning on getting a trophy rear spoiler soon and the front bumper resprayed with a xpower front splitter which I have already purchased.

welcome back man, nice choice of colour there, exellent information on the ashtray btw

welcome back dude lovin the car especially the colour and that ashtray is nice mod cheap and afftective

In all honesty I am hoping to try and replicate this in the long run and have spent months searching the internet for someone to start producing a kit as their are not any good bodykits out there for the TF. If anyone know if their is any where which can replicate this bonnet please let me know cheers

looking good mate
