    What are these wires for

    Traction control more than likely not standard though was on earlier B series. From memory though scrapped the car in 2011 137k, you break in to left footwell fuse board for the last of the B series March 2002 and run it to TC switch bought cheap off ebay.

    Tried 0w/40w and found it less conservative on fuel but more importantly sluggish.

    weld in a sport cat or buy one made

    I know cost of living has gone up but i only paid £80 5 year ago complete with decent flexi and a bit of tubing. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Catalytic-Spo ... 3a6345bcd1 These will easily pass the emissions even with an EML light on. They do sound a bit raspy with precat banged out.

    0w-40 oil.

    Tried em all over the years. Fully synth 0W/40 great when cold but a little sluggish when warm, you can certainly tell the difference feels like 3hp or more. Best all round 0W/30W fully synth, think the last lot was the Fuchs from Opie last year. So who has highest mileage z22 engine? Noticed...

    air con

    Have to ask what do you want the aircon working again for. Fuel consumption drops substantially when on around 20%, not on it still has to be driven by the crank absorbing power and a tad of economy. Never ever used mine in 8 years bracket broke twice (£150 a throw at stealers and original...
