What a beast - GLWTS!

Looking good - watch for rubbing of pipework on the oil filler cap

GLWTS!

Having gone through similar and had to part with cars / bikes before I completely empathise - hopefully you will be stable again sooner rather than later and as Savage mentioned 9k asking for your motor is well worth it

Looks good

With the mods you have made the map will be way out - @savage bulldogs uses a mapper a lot closer to you Colin Attowe in Norwich, I believe.... Here is some footage 😍 https://youtu.be/Lq1nLEtetok

What colour is the smoke - blue would indicate oil from valve stem seals, black is more likely running rich - whiteish is coolant being burnt. It may be my ignorance but I cannot see how changing the oil filter will affect exhaust smoke?

nice one - have found my RX has 15mm rear ARB / sway bar, that cannot be good for stability

got you, I will watch the video

Do you have a link to the diagram?

Thanks - I have seen various discussions online about how he has tried different diameter tubes / fittings, my concern is taking too much coolant away from where it is being routed to after the head on cylinder 4

I will be doing this also 👍 Just contemplating do I plumb into the supply, or return line, of the heater matrix which are the options I have

Fixed a worn heat shield that was rattling against the exhaust and replaced rear diff front mount (weeping bearing) on the RX with the alloy version from the STI, a 0.75Kg weight saving Before OEM mild steel item with leaking bush Slight difference in shape due to the larger diff on the STI but mountings all line up STI alloy item in place with small gap in the cut out but as it is bolted to the unit itself I have no concerns

Reach out to breakers and they may eventually turn something up - other than that I would buy the kit and sell the filter you have if you want it sooner rather than later?

Great to hear - keep us posted of feedback as the weather turns

Listed price £17,995

great photos - I see you are one of those wallflower, shrinking violet types that likes to cruise around unnoticed 😄😄

Clutch removed today - looks like a competition clutch lightweight flywheel with an ACT sprung 4 pad disc, one of the rivets is loose in the pad - should I be concerned??

Has your alignment been checked - are any of your linkage arms bent? Is the tyre wear consistent & even across the tread which may indicate an issue?

Tips def broken then - does happen particularly if running too hot

My DAB aerial is in the same location and signal is fine. I dont think the surround will fit - ill dig out the reference number and you can check as I think it will be very close top and bottom

Assuming they all have the same part number - those tips have broken off

What facia is it as I have an aftermarket black plastic surround that I did not use in the end because the volume dial was too close - it may fit?

I would go aftermarket, I have used denso products in the past and had no issue with them - although never an aircon unit
