  1. ok cheers i will let you know.
  2. i saw 120psi yesterday must have been near redline,im more worried about the low pressures, whats the norm at tickover with the oil at 95degrees c
  3. My odo is playing up so rather than buy a new 1 im wondering whether a jap 1 will work properly, thanks simon.
  4. mine does exactly the same when i use optimax, i noted where in the rev range it happened and got it down to thor, at the same revs it showed up a rich spot in the map and apparently uks are known for this?, so it could be what yours is, ide get it checked to be on the safe side tho.
  5. sounds strange, only thing i can tell you is that at wot the lambda is not in play, so open loop.
  6. Hardly ever use mine to be honest i only did 2k miles last year and 1k of that was going to le man and back, but i wouldent dream of selling.
  7. is that 300 fitted? guess not, where abouts are you.
  8. hi there, glad to see you using the supe on the track thats what they were built for, but as for your high temps, not good,if your fairly stock the temps shouldent go up too much, ive done quit a bit of track work in mine and the water gauge has never gone above half way, the oil goes up a bit tho but a gauge is nice to keep an eye on things, so it sounds as if your rad might not be upto scratch, have a look at your coolant and if it looks dirty get it changed.hope this helps.
  9. fuel pump? suspension brakes
  10. or the live side of the ciggy lighter
  11. great info there mate, but 2 weeks late, i could have done with this when i replaced my water pump.
  12. i dont think there is mate, its only the plate type diffs that have their preloads setup.
  13. oh yeh missed the old cupboard lol
  14. your braver than me bud, i only did the water pump last week and that made me sweat, oh and i cant find a 10 ton bottle jack anywhere on my car? let us know how you get on.

    Brake Fluid

    its a bit close to 8 so youll have to rush, dot 3 will mix with 5.1, the only 1 that doesent mix is dot 5 .
  17. if youve got a bit extra to spend go for some kyb agx shocks (set) using your existing springs, it will transform the handling no end.
  18. sounds like this v6 guy is trying too impress your missus, sort him out.
  19. yeh good 1, i fitted my 3rd brake light yesterday, i got my clips out using a large flat screwdriver down the side of each clip, thought it was more of a pain getting it back on.

    Clutch squek

    sounds like the spring on top of the pedal needs a squirt with wd, dont go mad with it tho, i did mine and it went all over the other pedals, foot slipped off the brake and i nearly crashed !!
  21. have a quick butchers in the ic pipes just to see if theres any oil passing the turbo seels, also what oil are you using, too thin and that can burn a little.
  22. Hi guys, ive got my mechanical boost gauge teed off the top of the bov, is this ok? been reading a few posts about pipes poping off and running lean, so just wanted to check, cheers simon.
