who uses there cossie everyday? and is it used in the winter/snow?

 

Yes everyday ................... when its working

 

I used too .lol

Agh well , i will be back in the new year !!!

 

All year round for me and as above^

 

mine gets used all year round too!!!!

 

me too,love the snow.

 

I used to use mine everyday for about 4 year loved it in the snow (4x4)

 

i see a dickhead in a 200sx earlier "loving the snow" and stack it into my neighbours drive, luckily the bump up the kurb killed his speed an he didnt hit nothing.. he then sat outside my house for about 15 mins as it kinda slopped an he couldnt quite get up there..tosser..

 

Nope,mine's tucked away till spring.

 

me up untill about a month ago its needs fixing before i can get back out there lol

 

i will be when its finished!

 

Mind you its not a shitter like mine

 

I used to when i first bought it.I spent a fortune getting it looking nice last year so i want it to stay that way.I miss driving it though.

 

Just tried in my 2wd and with the Ap paddle clutch i got stuck 500yards up the road!!! Back to walking again Lol

 

i do in summer,

 

I couldnt get it out even if i wanted to ricardo,bastard snow is everywhere.

 

its 4x4!!!!!

 

I did for the first 6 weeks got pissed off keep cleaning it all the time, only did 150 miles last year more of an ornament now.

 

It's 3 feet fucking deep though Andy !!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Excuses, excuses

 

I used to use the cossie4i all the time.

Hardly use it these days, but its taxed all year so i can use it when i want.

i use mine everyday. it loves this weather too, engine doesnt go above 78 degrees at the mo, had fun in the snow today too lol.

 

All through the year when its not off the road for any work. Spend a bit of time before winter to ensure underneath is clean and ready for the hard winter, but its worth it. As is the time spent cleaning after winter

 

All year round for me,come rain,sunshine or snow

 

Maureen you're a bloody pic whore,you're nearly as bad as my uncle Pete

 

I know hes rubbed off on me

i am the pete of the sapph room now

 

Mine gets used every day at the moment!

"As a fucking bird table" I put seed on the roof twice daily they love it.

 

He's a naughty boy.

 

before i had a company car
i used it every day for about 12 years long and about 20.000miles a year
and i so miss that

 

I use mine every day and theres plenty of fun to be had in the snow.

 

i used to use my moonstone one everyday when i first bought - then about a year or so later i bought a second car

me 2 but mine aint a cossie

 

I did last winter, but this year it's hardly moved at all.

 

I resemble that statement.

 

made me mind up new year gonna start looking for another cozy, but people wats better, previous cozy i had was a rwd f reg saph stage 2, looking for more power this time, does more power in 4x4 give the drive system any problems if so wats a safe bhp for a 4x4 system, is it best to build 1 or buy 1 already done,, cheers for looking any input greatfull,, steve

 

cool good to hear a few people are using them everyday! im gutted i missed out on the snow in mine this year. seems a shame to leave them locked up and hardly use them though i can understand if its a high powered juice guzzler wouldnt be economical for everyday use. caused a bit of damage to mine when a driveshaft went 2 years ago in the snow and caught front subframe, then locked up and slid into a kerb bending rear beam,arm and hub! also some silly tart slid into the o/s and dented up both doors. though im planning to finish the work she needs before april next year and make it as reliable as poss then everyday car again!

 

though you always need a back up plan to get to work if it breaks down lol! luckily i got a motorbike too

 

looks like ya had bloody good fun there ya lucky bastard lol!

 

Around 380HP as a general rule is the maximum for the 4x4 drive train.

Stage 2 isn't really heard of anymore as most go straight to 3 due to the minimal difference between the two, but then it does depend on what your conversion consisted of as it's not unified.

Stage 3 would be the next step and consists of a 3 BAR MAP sensor, Bosch 803's (Dark Green) or now days the preferred Siemens 55LB injectors and of course a ECU calibration (Remapped chip to suit this spec) -31 actuator a decent HG should also be installed.

At this stage some also uprate the turbo to a T34 item (Same as BT Escos) but with the smaller .48 exhaust housing and also uprate the intercooler to an RS500 style item, again depening on the tuner some also say change the exhaust and air filter but it's not neccesary.

This should give around 330 + HP and is enough for most people, it really all does depend on what you want from the car.

Again depends on what you want but if you buy one thats already tuned then you don't have to spend money doing so, then again as with any car of this breed you want to see receipts to verify who done the work as many of these cars are or have been bodged.
