If it’s a 1*2 f4r I would imagine the oil pressure will be similar to the pressure of pissing into a bucket. They’re horrific and it took a lot of working out to understand why they’re so poor. It’s not just one thing either, it’s a combination.
Nope. R3 generally had better oil pressure because of a couple other areas were different to the 1*2 f4r.
I used to modify the oil pumps for all the engine builds I’ve done, but it wasn’t just a case of shimming the oprv.
I have some very good memories of my time over at the ‘Ring and some not so good. I’d be happy to just go there and watch the others lapping tbh. Means I can drink jäger, lager and eat pizza all at the same time. 😁
In my Vauxhall club days, we used to have a weekend event at Billing Aquadrome. That for me used to be the best event of the show season. Beer, bbq, mates and cars. Just good to get together with likeminded people.
A 129 is a direct replacement for a 089 mate, so it’ll take the shafts. The only difference between the 129 and 089 is the final drive ratio is different on the 089.
Yeah that’s fine mate. Just let me know and I can get it sorted if you need one.
