I had this conversation with a customer yesterday with an MSD vectra. He was complaining about knocking from his coilovers. Wanted me to have a look.'put it in the air and found they were cheap s**t, I told him that the shocks are knackered as there's no play in anything else. He couldn't...

IHI Chocolate turbo. Although my Garrett GT2871R shat its ball bearings into the sump lol

As Sam said. I set the gf's pressures at the weekend and they were as far as 6psi out.

That was indeed on PE2's. but bare in mind I was keeping up with a stripped/caged/coilovered cup on r888's ;)

Doesn't sound great. Ill respond to your PM In a mo..

If he asked for a cambelt change they should've changed the aux kit aswell. As it is part of the job, the only come back they have is if be specifically stated do not change the aux kit. In which if that was me I'd turn the job away.

Alot of roll??? Seems acceptable to me!

And rod bolts.

Well it's the same setup I have. And Emma. Actually. It's perfect, I was keeping up with a cup that was caged and running r888's at Bedford. Yet I was only on PE2's

Sounds like a coilpack/lead/plug/injector failure.

I miss my LCR too. Just need to get my finger out and buy another 1*2 for Vikki to have so I can crack on with the conversion lol

Belts run under tension. For the sake of £20 for a new belt is it really worth it?

I'd question the mechanic/garage if they were happy to reuse a belt. Especially after that amount of time.

Infact I believe the ph2 race cars were ph1's originally but just had the front end modified to bring then up to date

They didn't have independent rear suspension. Only coil on shock.

I always said yours was a freak. Can't wait to get my engine into the cup!

B14's are epic. I love mine. Spax IMO are overrated.

Haha I remember that.

RC6's, so was expected really. But my LCR was running RC8's and had no issues like that.

260bhp s3's aren't quick anyway.

Well the offers there for me to check it over if you like.

It could be timing, difficult to say without seeing it! But eliminate the small stuff. Measure between the tip of the rocker a d the valve stem

It's not worth the hassle of having the belt off again for saving a few quid on seals IMO.

Nah only the rocker cover off. Do it cold, 0.635mm exh, 0.254mm inlet

I'm buying a set for the Monaco for when the Missus has it, just as the bilsteins aren't really suited for her use.

This. I refuse to change a timing belt without renewing the aux kit.

Double check your valve clearances.

FLOL!
