  1. Quick search... http://www.ebay.ca/i...id=350040560901 http://forums.mighty...o-Gold-Calipers http://knsbrakes.com/carItemDetails.php?car_id=54&item_id=37229
  2. I'm interested too, including the decals. Surely they are available somewhere...
  3. Speed cut defeated, more powah, less fuel dumping out the exhaust at wot, increased boost, higher rev limit, etc. Its the perfect base for an Emanage Ultimate to be wired in over the top of as most of those things can't be adjusted.
  4. Cool, I will pay you to remove them if that is all it takes... This I want to see. Its easy to judge time when someone else does it.
  5. You forgot to say it was highly modified and there were no heat shields on it by that stage Aaron. lol. I can help, PM'd.
  6. Pity you're up there, I have a good set of V35 rims with near new tyres here. Definitely change them, or drop the shaft for now...
  7. Definitely go with the Bosch 1000's. The Deatschwerks is well worth the extra $60. Make sure its hard wired with decent cable as they draw 15-20 amps. Your lines will be fine for years, if they ever go hard and brittle its time to swap them or upgrade to Teflon.
  8. Its easy to say, doing it is harder or should I say finding the time. I need this car back on the road... I thought you were coming around today to help me.
  9. 240 with a screamer? Something is definitely up...
  10. Haha, thats how I cleaned the gasket off the block using the gasket stripper. Perhaps I should...
  11. I doubt it, my Garrett ones are working fine
  12. Nope. lol, I don't trust myself around the valves without removing them and I don't want to get a stray piece of alloy in the oil galleries. Do you think it matters? The area of the 6 ports is a crapload bigger than the turbo and wastegate. It should be fine mate. There is definitely a heap of material I could remove there though.
  13. Wat? I wouldn't have believed that much, are you sure it's down to the housing alone?
  14. Studs turned up today, all went in well bar one, it looks like the thread is a little chewed. I will have to buy a long M11 x 1.25 tap tomorrow. I also match ported the upper and lower plenum halves and throttle, the head ports looked pretty good but the runners were all over the place.
  15. Just a casting mark. It sounds like it, Stuttering is usually either plugs that are fouled or coil packs breaking down. It could also be low voltage/bad connection in the coil loom. Without more information about the car's mods and power level its hard to guess the cause.
  16. Very good camber?
  17. Lol, I agree Craig, very noticeable improvement, although I have nearly forgotten how it drives.
  18. What's this Aaron? A non random post? That's not like you... Yeh Paul, the pistons were only a little coated in carbon, a light spray with gasket stripper had them polished like new. And yes, that is the knock sensor, not that the Fcon cares about it much.
  19. A tune? Not unless you have the Osiris software and jump on a dyno somewhere.
  20. Its not the belt shrinking, its the engine expanding as it warms up. The Gates belts must stay the same size with no stretch which makes it tighten as the engine expands. Will leaving it a little loose cause it to skip teeth though? I doubt it.
  21. Finished stripping the heads off today and cleaned up the block ready for the new oem head gaskets and L19 studs. It all looks pretty clean in there now, hopefully an oil flush will clean out any residual coolant I haven't managed to get to. Luckily it looks like just a split head gasket...
  22. Does that mean I need to re-weld your wastgate inlet again buddy? Is it highmount? Why not try it out on the stock one first, I think you will be surprised...
  23. Those ones suck closed quicker than the stock rubber one. Silicone gets very pliable when hot. You need an alloy one.
