Caused by a Worn shocks and worn subframe bushes. New shocks and either new subframe bushes (costly) or subframe spacers help significantly.

That seems pretty high, I rarely see mine get to those temps ever, and I have stock cooling. Does that also therefore mean that improving the cooling system, and fitting a Koyo would reduce performance :confused:

In short - for the approaching warmer climates any Top Branded Fully synthetic 10w-40, 10w-50 or 10w-60 oil.

Thats why the site was so good though, it meant we could party like nobody else, and we had people from other clubs wanting to join us :D If we are sited anywhere else that wont be able to happen.

75-85 here. Usually at the lower end, only seen it ride to mid 80's at high speed in summer.

I haven't......yet ;)

Overhauling Rocks. ok, the prank bits are a bit lame sometimes, butwhat Foose does with the Cars is amazing, absolute quality, and they spend an absolute fortune. Vroom Vroom was a big dissapointment :xxx:

(Just to clarify for others reading - This is on UK spec only. Not on Jap Imports.)

There are actuators on the top of the rear shocks, underneath the boot trim (if they are original stock UK spec shocks).

yes, but its a 1990

It says its was a Cat C write-off by last owner in 2002

Everything on it points to NA (Bumper, Clocks, no Twin turbo badge on engine) and he's cut the engine pic in so tight you can't tell how many Pipes it has. All a bit suspicious.

Black centre with Polished dish was what I was thinking about for next, but still can't make my mind up

:hurl: Im sure thats just a crap DIY nose panel with a Veilside badge stuck on. :hurl:

The stock water temp and oil pressure gauges are famously unreliable, hence why so many fit aftermarket. Most usefull (in order): boost Water temp oil pressure oil temp If your going to fit them in your DIN panel, then I would recomend getting gauges that offer Peak warning features, as you wont be able to keep an eye on them from down there, but at least they will light up and/or make an audible sound if something is wrong.

tut tut :nono:

yep, Sports and touring on rear shocks only, acitvated by pulling handbrake up 1 notch. In the U.S they have a Sports/touring button on the dash

you did'nt have standard Manual tubs before though, to compare, you had Stage 1/2 tubs ? I've driven many of both (manual and converted manual), and cant say I noticed any difference, but then I've also driven Stock zed's that spool and accelerate noticably quicker and slower than others, and all appear to be running correctly.

Depends which turbo's you were upgrading too. Auto or Manual, most match upgraded cams with upgraded tub's.

Lymon said SMIC's not FMIC's in regards to extra pipework
