Have you checked the injectors themselves? Free and doesn't take long. Maybe Ines a bit out of spec and throwing things about

Keep it up guys. I did my first 12k last week. 1 hour 4 seconds, legs ached for a day or two. Been out this morning for a five miler, when I started my original 1.6miles felt hard. Booked in now and committed to my first half Marathon in October. Hope to be near your time Stella.

Looking good bud.

That's the spanner/socket size your talking about. The actual thread size for the nuts and bolts would be closer to M6 I'd guess. Some are actually screws with hex heads, such as the arch liner to bumper bracket ones. If I get 10 minutes il have a look for you.

Maybe it's your arms as my car had stupid camber before I corrected it. Lowering the car a lot will cause silly camber on stock arms. I wish I had pictures. I hope your not going this far; It's been done, rightly or wrongly. It's just not the fashion with these cars, more the sub 100hp hatch back crew. Here's an article on of the cars above. http://www.speedhunters.com/2015/12/raising-a-middle-finger-freakin-works-z32/

Indeed they are a hybrid between a T22 and a T25 I believe. If they are stock CHRA (core and wheels basically) then yes they will still have some play. It's only if you go to a Ball Bearing style turbo that the play isn't there. Going forward you need to ensure your supplying the correct oil pressure to the turbos, there's a handed bolt in the feeds and that the engine, particularly its crank breathers are up to the job. Excessive crank case pressure will make your turbos smoke regardless. Oil starvation will kill a turbo double quick.

Are they the later style E.G. valves?

What exactly do you want to achieve? If I understand correctly your asking how to run excessive camber to allow you to "fit" (I use that term very losey) a set of wheels that don't fit properly?

Sure it's oil? There are a number of small metal and rubber hoses at the back there that can fail. A pin hole could show as evaporation esp on shut down when things are hot and pressurised. I had the same issue when I brought mine. The other option is the exhaust cam covers don't use a seal per say and the sealant fails over time. Oil then drops out the joint evaporating/smoking off the exhaust manifold. When was the last time this car was serviced?

Stock turbos are a hybrid, it rather depends on what was used.

Some shaft play in the stock turbos is normal. They are journel bearing turbos, the shaft is held central on a film of oil through hydrostatic pressure. I don't mean to say they are right, just that they shouldn't be solid. Good luck with your refund.

There's no hopefully about Mr P. Be careful.

Start from the known. Andrew has made a great suggestion and what your describing sounds mechanical rather than electrical so start there. With the engine off. Pop the throttle cover (plastic central cover off) and manipulate the mechanism. See if it operates smoothly and isn't notchy. You should be able to see if it's hitting the breather pipes Andrew highlighted, equally you could unhook the throttle and cruise control cables to isolate them from the equation. Once your satisfied there isn't a mechanical problem then you can begin to look at sensors such as the Throttle Position Sensor. You will need a multimeter for this stage. There's a number of sensors that could cause what your describing.

If your going to breathe you need feed. Too long have his turbos been on casual mode.

If that was true I'd have enough money to finish the car :lol:

Haha, actually the top ones full of lifters and the bottom one is full of crack cradle and head bolts...

Some bits turned up today. The new rear springs and some arch clips. Just got to find time to install now.

Sick and depravered, the word for someone that hurts children is pervert and I think that's apt. All power to the people of Manchester who stepped up and pulled together, showing best of British. Shame on our media for wallowing in detail and playing into the hands of these disturbed people. Distributing images and graphic accounts is simply promotion for these people, spreading thier propaganda. There's a special corner of hell for these barbarians and thier name should never be published.

Thanks for your experience Pete. They generally won't advise though, will they? Only set to what you ask. I need to get mine sorted again in the near future, especially the rear Castor. I was going to go with 1' all round, maybe slight less at the rear for off the line grip (road car ;))

I take it your talking about a standard tyre/alignment place? It sounds like what your after is Chassis Tuning.

Nope, not yet. It's low priority ATM. I suspect the fault lies in the fuse/relay box.

:lol: in that case you will love this;

Oops. Can happen to us all, rarely are people as talented as they believe. However with a car loaded with traction and safety devices doing this requires some stupidity. It's not like it was some widow maker Viper it was an R8, not exactly reknowned fir being a handful.

Fitted in the indicators this morning, however the side lights are damaged by the fitting and I need some need bulb holders. 501s I think it is I need. I also cut out my arch liner mounts as they were running on big bumps anyway, this means I've got more importance on those little arch liner plugs, eBay I assume? Got the rear bumper tabs to er, massage :lol: That pesky bolt on the ARB is now hopefully rectified. Stickers on, sorry Joel: Rear shocks are now out ready for the 4kg springs. I fired the engine up today for first time in months, it caught straight away and burst into life on all six, which I was happy about. I did notice some horrible sound but knew where to look. The Power Steering pump was empty of fluid, seems there's a leak on the banjo fitting which needs some attention. We're getting there, slowly. Can't wait to drive it again for a bit.

That as Ali pointed out is part of the AIV system. You will likely have the EGR as well. Make sure you remove the AIV guff from the bay etc, I can see that some one will have left it uncapped after changing to an aftermarket exhaust. How to here; http://www.twinturbo.info/63104/137858.html
