I looked under the car and found the n/s shaft had come out of the box and was p1$$ing gearbox oil out. I have ...

Re: URGENT - Confusion over twosforus delimter/ mph converter...

Just looking as I am after a delimiter/convertor, does the self test really put miles on the trip? and if so how many?

Also if anyone has got one for sale I would be interested as Twosrus have sold out

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Effects of a lighter flywheel?

Yep Just spoke to Rogue who said the 450lbs is the best for my spec.
Also gonna order the Cromo from GTS Chris later on.

Is your flywheel made by Cusco, cus I saw on RHD Japan a Cusco super light cromologyfly wheel? so just wondering if its the same?

A quick point will either flywheel fit any clutch e.g. an RPS, Spec etc. or is there certain combos not suited?

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Effects of a lighter flywheel?

Ps checking into this and from my research (lol if you call it that!!) the flywheel weights are as follows:

Standard Flywheel = 11kg
Fidanza 55% less than OEM so = 4.95kgs
Chromology 5.5kg less than OEM so = 5.5kgs

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Clutch problem? I assume

Im just a bit pi$$ed off as there was NO warning whatsoever! the clutch has only done 8K since replacing (guarantee 20K!) hasn't slipped or had ANY problems at all.

Oh well I'll try replacing the fluid etc. at the weekend, No Santa Pod for me ](*,) bu88er!

Cheers for the ideas Mark
