Just read through this, well done bet you are delighted.

Its this sort of thing cem's and dims that scared me away from the phase 2 motors.

Think I'm gonna stick with my 850

Thanks thats great. Is rufe the guy from frf? I ordered my PCV kit from them. How much were you for all the bolts and the seal? Did u get the clutch from them aswell?

Hi guys,

Been a while since I've posted as my 854 t5 has been feeling sorry for itself on the driveway, after deciding it couldn't be bothered holding the road any more, sending me spinning into...

Ive got Meteors (16" comets) they also fit over 302's

I've got 16" comets on mine and they fit.

On the standard t5 alloys you can make the fit by filing off the edges of the calliper.

Do you do them for 850's?? If so have you got a link to where I could get them/ see pics??

My 855 T5 weighed bang on 1500kg. At the local weigh bridge.
Had it up to 1980kg with scrap in the back

I think he means sometimes the car runs well and other times its as slow as a 50cc moped. Not that he's driving slow.

So when it is running and the turbo is spooling he is getting the air release...

There is a red 855 R up this way. I don't think he's on here but he is on voc. Also recently been chatting to a guy with an 855 t5r. He's also on voc but not on here.

Is the gap on the spark plugs correct? As mine did this with new plugs, reduced the gap to prevent spark blowout and it's been fine since. Only ever happened on wot

get a set of wobble bolts.

Yes I meant nebs lol

Speak to nealevo. The pegs he has for sale were fully refurbished with some new bolts and torqued up to spec so you should be able to get all the info from him

Mine is an auto tho. I think frankies ecu is for a manual.
Do I have to send my ecu away for a map or is there somewhere close to inverness that could do it for him?

I was thinking mbc for the time being. As no one up near inverness do remaps that I'm aware of.

What would be a safe limit to up the boost to on the R with the mbc??
Do i need to adjust the...

I miss the power my 855 had. Although it was 257bhp compared to the v70r's 240 it was massively quicker. But a lot of that might be down to the v70 being an auto.

What should the v70r be boosting...

Really struggling to get my head around what's best for my 1998 v70r. It's a pre me7 auto. It has a 16t which I will be re building as soon as funds allow.

Eventually it will end up being a manual...

I've done this to various cars. 5 monde's 3 civics and my 306 gti 6. Just not got round to doing the v70.
I think all cars look great with them.

I did my indicators but have since replaced them....

I want to rebuild it as a project/something to do. Most complex thing I've done to an engine was fit a timing belt kit on my old gti-6.

I'm a plumber by trade but more interested in cars and...

Now that my kitchen is fitted and I finally have space in the garage the engine and gearbox will be coming out of my 850 t5 for a rebuild.

It will be a project and a very big learning curve.
The...

Just a quick question whilst on the subject.

What clutch and flywheel would I use on my 1998 v70R if fitting an m56 from my 1995 t5

Yellow for me

Block off one of your vents and make a pod out glass fibre that way you can put it were u like and at an angle to suit you

Bugger. I was on my way back from the breakers (100 mile round trip) when it happened. Thought mine would fit.
Is there anyway the second cooler can be removed and fitted onto the 850 one?

My rad just burst..

Will the rad in my 850t5 manual
Fit in my v70r auto?

Thanks guys
