  1. as above need a radiator ASAP for an RB20 if anyone has a spare one from a front cut etc thanks adam
  2. well if u have the choice (which u do) id buy the pod which fits the guage either way cypher have them locally
  3. itd look like shit... id buy the pod which is made to fit the guage...
  4. you lucky bastard with the temp that hot ur lucky nothing blew mine ran hot once and blew the seals on the plastic radiator end tanks - goodbye radiator the water pump is a c*** to get off cos of the crank pulley bolt. you will more than likely need a rattle gun to get this off the water pump may not be dead, it my just be the seal, in which case pull the pump off, put new sealant around it (doesnt use a gasket) and put it back together you can drive around with a leak BUT make sure u keep the system topped up if it starts sucking air or depressurises it will overheat again and u may not be so lucky take it to a mechanic and there are pressure tests you can do on the radiator so check for a leak/crack. you can also run a test to see if there are exh gases in the system (leaking head gasket) so you will be able to pin-point the problem just finally, cooling systems are ****s to work on and fix, if youre going to repair it make sure u do it right cos its the kind of thing which if not done properly will cause alot of headaches
  5. i run champions of heat range 7 and gapped to 0.7mm the part number for NGK is BCPR7ES and gap them to 0.8-0.7mm basically the more boost u run the closer u should gap the spark plugs
  6. regarding the hose with an adjustable nut its probably a heat probe of some kind. have u got any aftermarket temp guages in the car?
  7. only akin 150rwkw it aint gunah be anything huge firstly put on a heat shield though, thats gunah be boiling the engine bay as it is the actuator is in the std position i have a 0.60 comp housing and it rubs against the chassis rails so judging by that pic it aint that big... id dare say from size and power output its either a small GT series turbo or a high-flow. easiest way to find out is pull the intercooler piping off and take some better pics for us also if the car hasnt got a front mount (or theres no evidence of it ever having one ie cut up front supports or front bar) then i doubt its anything huge
  8. do you want jap or american spec tho? ie autometer make them for 51/4 etc guages japs make em for 52mm and 60mm guages so if youve got an HKS, trust, apexi etc guage they wont fit in the non-metric autometer mountings
  9. cypher have the dual a-pillar pods theyre in o'connor
  10. sorry paul, i missed the part where u became a moderator? or how about this i believe by saying that he is in fact asking for our opinion on whether we like it or not....

  25. plently of people use these units...?!?! works auto sell them, simon uses one in his R32. nothing wrong with single solenoid, the majority of budget-priced EBC's use a single solenoid.
