    Brake temperature

    Recently I've changed my brakes, but I'm noticing one of them is hotter than the other. Maybe it's because they haven't totally bedded yet?

    Stiff brakes after overnight

    Having brake issue. After the wild cat is left sitting for a few hours, when returning to it, the brake pedal is hard as rock. Only eases after starting the engine. Meanwhile I detected a leak around that yellow rubber cap in the cap from the brake reservoir. Can be that the culprit?

    1.7 Rev Limiter

    We all know these 1.7 are awesome. But I notice it is very easy for the car to hit the Rev Limiter in 5th gear. Is there a way to increase the Rev Limiter to 7000/7200 like in the FRP?

    Only blowing hot [FIXED]

    So... Today I changed my car HCV for a new one made by TRW. When I bought it, it had a bypass. Thinking the one he had may be broken, I've put a new one today. But the problem is, either I change the dial to cold or hot, the car is always blowing hot air inside.
