    Coilover opinions...?

    the difference in hole spacing means that for the new hole to fit on the bracket, it has to be in such a place that throws the camber way out. If it was that easy to get it right, I wouldn't have bothered spending months developing high quality cup fitment coilovers, I'd have got the die...

    Engine dismantle/rebuild

    got to be bluntly honest, bumper removal is so blindingly simple, that if you have to ask how, then rebuilding the engine is probably more than you should be attempting

    Balancing ITB's

    if you're getting cams, then get them and do it all once. Any mapper worth using will check and adjust the balancing before putting the car on the dyno even

    172 Inlet/unknown problem

    dont think i've tried to buy one separate. I've managed to keep a few spares from gasket sets for ITB builds when it's not been used though

    Coilover opinions...?

    i couldn't get more than 0.5 deg on the cup pack ktec setup. My fitted price is in my traders section, and on my website, I wont fit new parts that I'm not supplying though. warranty implications. Let me know who's selling vmaxx that cheap....the distributor wont be happy as it undermines the...

    Coilover opinions...?

    avoid the ktec setup for 182 cup pack. You can't get enough camber. They're fine on other fitments for a budget setup, I'll supply and fit either, but for cup pack on a budget, vmaxx is the only option. TBH, save some more money and go for the spax setup. Night and day difference. I put vmaxx...

    Thrust bearing problem, engine seals and where to buy things!

    Re: Shims on no.2 - Thrust Bearings you appear to have a top end set, and not an engine set. you should still be able to buy a bottom end gasket set for cheaper than buying separates

    Thrust bearing problem, engine seals and where to buy things!

    Balancing ITB's

    as above, but it's normally somewhere between 5 and 7 kg/h, and you need to be watching what the ecu is doing with idle control at the same time to make sure the ignition timing at idle sits somewhere sensible normally between 0 and 10 degrees. Engines vary though, and so do peoples opinions on...

    Factual High Comp Piston Selection

    maupineda said henk was mapping it for him, but he's in mexico......hence I'm assuming that would be done via logging and rstuner. Not safe IMO

    172 Inlet/unknown problem

    you've probably just disturbed the seal, they dont need replacing every time. it'll have come out of it's groove. Refit it and go light on suggests you've left something unplugged

    Factual High Comp Piston Selection

    I wouldn't even think of mapping that by data logging. It'll be far too highly strung an engine with that compression

    Thrust bearing problem, engine seals and where to buy things!

    Re: Shims on no.2 thrust bearing ;) have you got both thrusts in place? and have you measured end float? did you buy all new bearings? they normally come with the mains

    Rattling on full lock at carparking speed

    I've seen the bearings collapse a few times. I'm pointing at the PAS pump as you say it happens on full lock though. It may still be the lower aux idler. It need all looking at properly

    Best 5.1 Fluid

    If you're going to buy fancy fluid, get ATE superblue. They're all much of a muchness really, but having blue fluid makes flushing the system a complete breeze

    Brake pads for trackday car

    obvioulsy. Swings and roundabouts on the pad life vs cost if you're using 3 sets of disks to one set of pads, rather than 1 set of each with the pads costing half. Works out about the same

    Rattling on full lock at carparking speed

    ah i see, thats clearer. Sounds like it may be PAS pump. Is there any sign of fluid leakage?
