You will have to find out what Turbos are fitted, If they are stock they will be 4 stud, if they are aftermarket upgrades they could be one or the other depending on which upgrade was fitted. Allan

Turbo dynamics will not refurb stock turbos, they will hoever turn them into hybreds for 700 quid each!!! This is what they told me on the telephone last week. Also i spoke to the direct importer of Garrett Turbos (Norris developments)the T25 is no longer made and they will not do refurbs due to the tollarances required. I am looking at JWT sport 500s from the states. Depending on the dollar situation it will work out cheeper. Allan Hope this helps Allan

Im here but not sure about being active!

Sorry your feeling down bud, same thing happend to me but I got it by a text message. Hope things pick up for you. Allan

Alan if this were the case, YOU would be skint single with no house! Then again you would have a mint zed :rolleyes: Allan:p

I had this same problem when I bought my swb, it turned out to be the clutch booster. Take the vac line off the booster unit (servo) and block it up with a bolt and hose clip, Run the car for a few days like that and you will be able to tell if this is the problem. You will have a heavy clutch without the booster connected. Allan

Yup Dave how are you? I think the sheer cost will hit home when the alcohol wears off in the morning!

First get the best car you can otherwise you will be throwing money in all the wrong directions!! Ask Bird And its not just the power mods you will have to do, Gearbox, brakes, handling cooling and the list will go on. Allan

Blimmey!!! welcome back mate, hope your well? Allan

Have spoken with Turbo Dynamics and Owen Devolpments (Main Garret Importor) and the stock turbo is no longer avalible:nono: Will have to fit a hybred or something will have to ring america and talk to z1. Would rather do the uk market but that seems not to be happening. Allan

Thanks for the replying to my questions but I was looking for someone to suggest some suppliers so I can start compairing prices and upgrades. I have done US suppliers on the net but there seems to be no Uk options. Allan

Ok it has now come to the time that I really need to replace the tubs. I have someone in mind to do the work, because I have lack of time and space. The question is what tubs to fit and where to purchase from, any comments would be welcome. Allan

Got a Ski Nautique 196 ski boat :-)

yep running 245 45 17 front and 265 40 17 on rear. 315 or 295 would look good with no problems. If you can get them as they are odd sizes on a 17" diameter. what you need is the tyre comparison table regarding inch up, this will give you the running diameter as well as the percentage width in mm, then you can decide which way you want to go, with minimum risk. And yes i havent been around for a while, must get to resub some time lol Allan

link not there anymore sorry

link for strosek offsets and tyre sizes. Allan http://www.ameanz.com/upgrades/wheels.htm

off set for strosek rear is -31mm at 10" and front is +24 at 9.5"

any one spoken with him?
