Re: Crystal Headlight users

I replaced the stock JDM headlights in my turbo with a pair of ebay crystal headlights and Osram Nightbreaker Plus bulbs in September 2016. I purchased them from the same ebay seller as in your link, but of course there's no guarantee that he's still obtaining them from the same source. But whilst ...

I wouldn't mind the spending too much, but the Raybrigs have plastic lens and no E marking. I would prefer glass lens.

Re: unstable rear end

So got my coilovers on. What a difference!! They still need alignment and camber done but Gmac on here is doing that tomorrow. My wheel wobble at 70mph is completely gone as well. The old suspension looked absolutely rotten. So glad I made the decision to go coilover! I would say they about as firm...

Re: unstable rear end

The plan was to do it all at the same time but it's just not turned out that way :( Gotcha If there is no play on them and the boots are still go...

Re: unstable rear end

right. Checked over everything. Had the alignment done. car still feels wobbly round bends. Away to fit coilovers. My suspension is ancient. I feel like the shocks are gone after putting 3k miles on it. Away to plump for the meister R CRD ones. Spoke to a couple of members with them saying they hav...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Suspected cv joint failure

Hi everyone, I think my left rear cv joint is quickly failing on my '95 turbo, started making a knock noise increasing in speed, now it's a grinding noise. I can't seem to find a blue print replacement, just "shaftec" ones, are these worth a punt? Or should I just get a used driveshaft co...

Yep it does.
That hose should be connected to the bottom (small) port of the separator (catch can) which sits on the top of the engine.
We are talking turbo, right? If NA, I have no idea :)
Never seen an NA in person

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Fuel pump replacement - Walbro OEM/Toyota/Walbro 255LPH

Are the Denso/Kysoan pumps really proven though. I've looked at these pumps a few times but something is holding me back. Maybe the higher current draw holding you back. As I read, you would want to upgrade the wires all the way to the battery (or the box in the engine bay) and you may also need a ...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Fuel pump replacement - Walbro OEM/Toyota/Walbro 255LPH

If I did my swap again, I'd get an OEM pump or the Denso Supra pump. The Whinebro lives up to its nickname. Walbro is out of my basket for sure. I just googled walbro noise and you get plenty results. Also, as I read, it gets noisy(er) over time. For some people after 10k. Thank you very much, I ne...
