stants

Hello welcome, There are loads of cars out there ranging from complete lemons to some well kept examples, best bet is to just absorb as much info as possible and view lots just so you can gauge the market and what you can get. Cars with loads of service history are obviously ones to go for as although they aren't super expensive to run and maintain you'll save yourself some money at the start, for instance if you bought something with no records of cambelts or a recent major service done it's going to set you back nearly 800 notes, Your main hurdle will be you age with insurance, most companies will either laugh alot of charge you a couple of grand for the privilege of owning a turbo or wrx. Not sure how different a gx will come in at, being a 2.0l it could still be silly, maybe have a look at insuring it before buying.

As for cats, just looks like it has a sports cat then, There shouldn't be one in the up pipe only new age cars came with pre cats in the up pipe, UK injectors should be yellow ? 440cc ones where as the imports had grey 380's Do you have any paperwork with the car, prodrive tuned cars came with a certificate, a dyno printout would help to confirm what's been done but if there isn't one I'd say he's guessing at max bhp. The fuel rail should be good enough to cope, I'd have a look at how long it's been in as warlord pumps seem to have gone a bit down hill in quality recently and a few failures have occured.

Hi ,you could change the pitch stop, they wear out after time and induce a bit of drivetrain for and aft movement

I'd solder but space is a bit tight, vampire clips are better than blocks,

Obviously the 4 pots will be easiest to see along with the bigger i/c. Maybe they have popped a prodrive ecu in from a done. Essentially it is the same as a wrx engine just a few slight differences,

I think so mate [emoji16]

Managed to delete my own thread about top hose [emoji35] Still took it off and had a look at the offending leaky area clean everything up and re seated the hose used socket to nip it up and no more leaks [emoji3] Tomorrow brings round 2 of droplink fitting and re apply waxoil to some areas I missed the other week

I can't highlight the area I'm afraid but if you zoom in to the left of the coil pack underneath the ht leads you'll see the t piece where I plumbed mine in

I think so, I was told to take it from as close to the manifold as possible, I cut the vac hose that runs from the manifold to the boost soliniod. And inserted there. I'll see if I have a pic

Hmm did you cat not have the clock situated where you've put the pod ? If not you could always take the perm live and battery on live from the hazard warning switch. Does mean removing more of the facia, do you have a multi meter ?

Hello welcome, glad your enjoying the foz, Td04 good for around 270 maybe a hybrid one will get to 300 with supporting mods. 1bar with 250bhp sounds about right, Depends if the ecu has been mapped. Is it a UK car ? For 300bhp I'd be looking at td05 new age top mount i/c full decat & remap, bigger injectors if it's an import. Get some pics up too [emoji3]

If yours is 6w2 it breaks down as this 49BSlate Metallic 64CAcadia Green Metallic

Speak to mfnick, he's done his recently [emoji3]

Metalic green actually [emoji14]

Yep, it's a two tone colour code same as mine, Off the top of my head I can't remember what it's called

Good doings there mate, if I were you I'd only take money for the alignment otherwise you'll end up walking out with half the shop [emoji16]

Yeah i'd go back sounds like they couldn't be arsed all it will need is some heat and gentle persuasion,

Like you say the dial will have a rod attacbed to open and close the hot air, can you see where the rod goes maybe the flap is stuck and only give all or nothing

Good news mate i'd start by just offering the pod and gauges up to each other make sure everything fits before you start ripping the dash apart,

Hello welcome, you are correct in thinking that nothing works apart from the green and black diagnostic connectors under the dash for providing basic info, being a 97 car is yours a jdm import? If so an ecu swap won't work as the jdm cars have different turbo injectors and cams so it won't run very well. Also i've been told the UK cars have an immobiliser in the ecu so you'd need a matched set of keys otherwise it would start up then cut out. A proper garage version of ssm will work but it costs about 6 grand

Ash had his done by Simon jolly green

Hello welcome, feel free to have a poke around and get involved, posting pics of you car is nearly mandatory [emoji16]

Hi mate welcome, could be the heater matrix gone funny, do you have air con? Could be low on gas or have you had any work done on the car recently that has needed the coolant to be drained ? Maybe an air lock
