Re: Harness without rollcage

That would be the perfect set up for me if possible, full harness but with the ability to reach everything in the car, lean forward at junctions etc. But also the chance of getting your dome out the way if you roll it and don't have a cage. That's exactly what I have now with these beauties! They'r...

Re: Harness without rollcage

So when I installed the second harness fully last night, I took some measurements for the rear placement of the reel guys. http://s31.postimg.org/jt3nbzwgr/20160613_213119_1.jpg I also decided to reinforce the reels mount. It was already sufficient, but I noticed that the metal was very slightly ben...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Turbo Options

Keep boosting the ct20b until it spits it's guts out. It makes 300 crank hp easily. After that rebuilt it with billet wheels, and be capable of pushing well over 300whp. I think that's what I'll do to be honest. I like the response from it too. Thanks for all the tips guys.. When you say rebuild wi...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Turbo Options

I ran a TD05 on standard set up, ran fine, it was stronger than ct20b for sure, wouldn't like to estimate what power it was putting down at what boost but here is a video of it at 1-1.1 bar I sold it to sheppy, he then sold it to another member, maybe worth tracking the buyer down because they may ...

[Mk2] [Turbo] Turbo Options

If you wanted to just pop over the 300hp mark and run less boost, is there a turbo that's slightly more efficient than a CT20, but still remains on stock ECU without needing a remap? Perhaps rebuilding a CT20 is an option?

I don't want to go down the forged route again this time.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] No bov

Don't have any pics, but it's really simple :) There are two vacuum hoses going to bov (if it's a stock one). You just need to take them off and block with something. I use a bolt when I don't have anything better near me :) http://s33.postimg.org/hovq0jrn3/BOV_Stock_Install_01.jpg Care to mspaint ...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] No bov

it probably does with an open intake and more boost. with 10psi and the stock airbox you probably wouldnt hear it anyways. i have my bov set to as tough as itll go, (adjustable hks). if i had an option id fit a block off plate, but i have the hks adapter welded into my ic pipe, so makes things more...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] No bov

The factory valve is fitted for noise reduction and to a lesser extent, emissions. The ST185 GT-Four was never fitted with one from the factory and they use the same engine and turbo combo as the 1989-1993.10 SW20 turbo. You don't see ST185s with broken ct26s anymore than you do SW20s. Cheers for t...

Rattle when warm at certain revs

I realise this could be anything, but at about 2000rpm, I get a metal rattle noise from the drone of my exhaust. It only seems to occur when the car is warm. Happens when stationary and moving. Are there any common things to check? I did have a quick listen last week, checked my rear exhaust grill (...

Hi Guys Im about to order a set or Corbeau Pro Series buckets for the motor, luckily I dont live too far from their head office ( st leonards on sea ) and last Friday I went down to test fit etc. The only thing that they cannot supply, well not for a price I want to pay anyways, is runners.

Cheers dude! I'm very happy with it now. I'm like you, in that I'm happy with my 300hp now. Just a nice road power without that feeling of 'when is it going to break' when you're running 400+ :wink:

Re: Harness without rollcage

Okay so for the shoulder straps you only need the 2 x 55mm plates That's correct btw :) Cheers, Just out of curiosity why didn't you use the existing bolt on the left hand side where the centre console runs? I took some advice from Ashley on here about that one. Apparently, it's not through the tri...

Pics as promised :thumleft: Here's where you need to drill the inner floor bolts. The included bolts are perfect for these as they have a spacer and smooth bolt shaft near the top. This allows for the buckle to spin freely, whilst at full tightness: http://s33.postimg.org/6z53ioetb/20160528_203301.j...

Looks sweet. Got any pics of exact drill location that doesn't hit anything engine bay side? (Hard too see with carpet there). Be interested to see the location in the engine bay too. Did you drill boot floor to? I'll take the carpet off again and measure the distance to the centre of the bolt when...
