Re: gran turismo

Prologue was a slightly ambitious title considering the gap between it and GT5 release.

Can they develop any slower?

Will be good though, but prob be a new Playstation out before.

The quality of spelling in this thread is quite frankly an embarassment to IMOC on the web. :lol:

[Mk2] [Turbo] Turbo - to have seals done or to replace that is the question!

What do you think? My CT26 Stage 1 Hybrid needs the seals doing as its leaking quite badly - my brain is telling me to just buy a decent CT20b as it will probably cost just as much to have the seals done. I can always keep the Hybrid for later. What do you think? My end goal for now is around 260-28...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Temp gauge increases if I put the cabin heaters on hot/full

ok this turned out to be a leaking rad cap, air in the system (thanks to the rad cap), small pin hole in the radiator bleed cap and the heating matrix leaking coolant all over the passenger footwell. Nice!

Thanks to Rogue for sorting that out! :thumleft:

Re: XS Power Motoria Exhaust

Ok I may well do the same with mine, but I've heard of people just bending it back too.

Looking forward to getting it fitted next week (if it arrives in time and aint damaged in transit :pray: , 2-5 days apparently)

RedMR² wrote:It will be the Jap import clocks (180 KPH) with a 120mph speedo face on it.

Still counts miles in KM but has the equivalent 120mph speedo face fitted.

Thats exactly right, I have this too.

Get it sorted at some point but not really a big deal!

[Mk2] [Turbo] Temp gauge increases if I put the cabin heaters on hot/full

If I drive around normally with heaters on cold/low all is well, however if I put them on hot/full the temp gauge shoots up bang half way and the heating stays cold for a short while before going really hot

Is this air in the coolant line? yes I have had my hoses from hell sorted

Thanks :thumleft:

Re: hot hot hot

Mine gets hot also, I was considering going for the rogue fan kit - can you hear your coolant bubbling/boiling under the rad cap and in the water hose leading up to it??

Is this normal?

If it isnt and its not head gasket, is it likely to be air in the coolant lines?

Cheers!

[Mk2] [Turbo] Water temp gauge, best place for sensor/32mm adapter

Can anyone tell me where the best place is to put the 32mm adapter and sensor for water temp?

Is it best to put it on near the rad cap water hose (elbow)??

Also why do they make the sensor wire so damn short! lol

Thanks
