get a hatchi........you'll never experience handling like it once setup properly.
Stock they are w**k.
but then again, you have to be a good driver in one, they are toight.
initial D stylee is SOOOOOOOOOOOO gay.
they are like 1500-2.5k in japan, but all the handling and their margins and the cult status means they can demand 6-8k......but i know i cant be arsed sourcing one, and japs ones are in such a state with a million bodges.
The MAP sensor is manifold absolute pressure, it is different to the air temp sensor.
The MAP sensor is black and about 2" x 1" and 10mm thick, attatched to the offside end of the inlet manifold.
The grey sensor on the nearside (right hand side of the engine if your looking at it) of the...

whats this obcession with the vag lump?
its s**t!
Any turbo you can boost on stock parts to 400bhp, hell the 2jz can take 1000bhp on a stock bottom end.
polybushes are horrid.........stay OE or go all the way.
And does the diesel have electric rack or anything, as my valver has wonderful steering feel even with PAS.

You could setup a car perfectly, then run it the next day and it will be s**t. Factors such as track temp and the amount of oils/grease that...
