    Range rover rev counter problem!

    OK the signal comes from alt, but isn't that wire connected to the coil which feeds the tach? Also I believe that if the alternator craps out the battery symbol on dash will illuminate. I could be wrong, but on my TR7 and TR8 that's how it's set-up. Both are electrical driven tachs, and in fact...

    Range rover rev counter problem!

    the tach, which i'm i believe you mean by rev counter is driven from a signal from coil, check connections on coil first then perhaps bad connections at back of tach itself. Jim

    Borla exhaust for 92 RR County

    Hi MMike, I did contact Atlantic Brit first, thats why I contacted Borla direct. They told me they wouldn't recommend it from disco, or the LWB one. But when I told them I already called AB, he checked with engineers and they felt that AB had already fitted to SWB and they would know better...

    Buying Advice for Teen

    With the insurance rates for teens today, a car is a luxury, not a necessity. And certainly a 10 - 15,000 dollar car is not pocket change. While they are in high school transportation is what parents are for. It's not keeping up with the Jones. My first car cost me 500 bucks AND I had to buy...

    Borla exhaust for 92 RR County

    OK, I know this topic has been brought up many time before, so I hope one more time will not matter. I've been doing some research on the cat back systems. Now everywhere I check the Borla system is for the LWB and they say it will fit the SWB as well because the extra lenght is in the convert y...

    Buying Advice for Teen

    What state do you live in will determine insurance. In New Jersey let's say about 3000 bucks a year! No kidding. Also, here is some advise from father to father, let him get a job and buy his own car and insurance! Kids today have no idea what the value of a dollar is, so most don't appreciate...

    JanSpeed Exhaust systems

    Hello All, Considering exhaust system alternatives for my 92 RRC once the current, stock exhaust craps out. I would like a little more sound from the v8 but not too much. I tried the NRP SS on the 97 disco but found it too rumbling while highway cruising. I believe the RRC might be better...

    Thinking of purchasing a discovery couple of questions

    Check the carfax report. Most of the lot dealer vehicles come from car auctions, which in most cases means they have a torid history, and just fix up to get them out the door and were not well cared for. Also the lots have really no idea of the vehciles true history. When I bought my 97 Disco...
