hey mate is that a scratch on this back passenger door or just the sun reflecting?

also what kind of suspension does it have?

and r u runing 13-14 pound on the standard turbo regularly?

yes still for sale

That is definately a reflection there is no scratches in the door.

Suspension is just stock with lowered springs.

It runs 13-14 on high boost but I am aware of ceramic turbos and their limitations. Lets just say I dont drive it like I stole it, and if it has run full boost through a few gears, it will be driven off boost for a while to allow temps to drop so it doesnt end up having an exhaust wheel fall off..

The GTS-4 box was used however I believe you are right, there is not much difference in the boxes, just the ratios in the diffs are different I think..

Hope this helps, send me a private message write here for any querys as my mobile is playing up at the moment..

    • I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.   
    • As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.
    • Yeah car has 110 on the clock. That said the front turbo (that exploded) doesn't seem to be the original, it has a S1 part number but the car is a series 3. Yep, in the cat is where I first found the turbine wheel pieces - a couple decent sized ones, then a whole lot of fragments.  I agree, probably makes sense to upgrade parts that are being replaced. Things like rods would be 'nice' but realistically it seems unlikely they would need replacing. I was hoping that it was a case that they generally f**k up the valves but not the bore, or vice versa. Is it generally the scour damage rather than ceramic bits getting mashed into the piston tops / valves? I tried a search but couldn't find any threads with pics from the guts of a motor that's had this happen.
