Hi guys
Anyone done the inner bushes of the rear suspension arms? I think they are the ones that adjust the toe in etc not the large pressed in ones that mount to the car and require the puller? ...

Hi woz
Yes I do I’m in clevedon. They’re an ass pain!
Thanks helpful to know :) it’s a pretty new build so hopefully pretty tight still! Certainly starts and runs ok
Guys is it normal to have the same numbers on a compression test when cold compared to when hot?? I always thought cold should be lower as the rings need heat to expand and seal correctly!

Hi all
So how long do you go between replacing spark plugs? I run genuine plugs on a nearly stage 2 tuned 850 which generally get driven like an old person but they have been in there a couple of...
That’s the golden question lol! Had quite a bit of trouble getting the rears setup and still not completely convinced although it rides and drives ok. Think I have about 5-7mm.
My Spring measures...
Thanks guys (sorry don’t seem to be getting notifications for this thread!), seems ok still so will leave and see for now!

Rear springs on my bc’s seem to twang now and again...
Thanks woz. I think I found the same article!
Maybe mine has faded a bit as it looks a different colour to all those but pretty sure it’s the 21.5mm bar. My question mainly though is how far do...
Hi guys
Yes sorry bc racing coilovers! I have the 21mm bar I think but it definitely looks very rotated now the car is much lower and just wondered how it sits in a non lowered car for reference....

Hi all
So have just finished installing some bc’s but noticed they are a good inch or 2 shorter than stock meaning the end links pull up on the arb more. That and with lowering is making me wonder...

Yeah that’s a good point it could be something like that, I have to be honest though mine was not that noticeable unless you up near a wall or something solid with the window down while driving....
Hi! To be honest after fiddling with pretty much everything from what I remember it continued so I just ignored it LOL. I drove the car today to see if I could hear it and I don’t think I can...
Some numbers having driven to work...
Cold after 2.5k rpm getting about 110 psi (7.5 bar) don't want to push much higher in case it keeps going!
Hot idle 22-30 psi
Hot 4K rpm 80 psi (5.5 bar)

hi guys
So after finding a little bit of positive PVC pressure at cold start and my turbo being oily everywhere ?cause I thought Id do a quick overhaul of the PCV system even though it is only 2...
thats fine thanks guys :)
Hia, yes Tesco usually although occasionally use bp's premium fuel too (98 Ron?). interestingly it didn't run too bad on basic fuel when I tried a tank as an experiment, no knock light stuttering or...
Morning guys
I have a quick question about afterfiring (I don't think it's backfiring). Does it damage any engine components particularly the turbo or cat?
I am running forged rods, stock 15g...
Thanks buddy that's really helpful I'll give them a call next week and see if it makes any more sense! Thank you for the time you've put into helping me on this

Thanks guys. I spoke to my local dealer in Bristol but they have no idea what I'm on about. They sent me these diagrams, make any sense to anyone? Is it only a p2 thing? Thanks

Thanks lee very interesting. It's an electric seat. I don't suppose you have any pictures of what it looks like and where it is?!
Thanks buddy
Thanks for your reply, yes unfortunately it seems to do it in most positions although occasionally improves if you get the position just right, unfortunately I think the gear is probably worn...
Hi guys (sorry also posted in T5D5)
just routinely checking and noticed I have signs of oil coming from my turbo and cbv housing. Performance is fine with minimal oil consumption and no smoke....
