Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Rev 2 suspension refresh

I should have, I'll have a dig for you this evening when I'm home.

No I sealed it all off when I got it, the car was dry stored up until I got it so barely ever saw rain. :thumleft:

1995 Rev3 tintop Turbo

Today marks a sad but exciting day, my 2 is up for sale! The reason for sale is simple, I’m going on a one-off trip to Lake Tahoe snowboarding with my mates and to fund it I’ve downgraded to a normal motor for a while. I also needed to draw a line with expenses so running a 21 year old turbocharged ...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Throttle cable extension

Use a bike brake nipple that screws in with an allen key, take a bit of cable with the end on it to the throttle body and adjust to the right length and clamp. Hope that makes sense, it does in my head. Similar to this: http://www.kevela.co.uk/info/brake-cable-eye-bolt/471/1195/?gclid=Cj0KEQiA_MK0BR...

Re: Rev 3 turbo - 4 Wire 02 sensor test

Thought as much. I'll give it a test next weekend cheers Gaz. I tested a single wire one before with a blowtorch, was easy just didn't know what one would be the signal wire in this case!

Rev 3 turbo - 4 Wire 02 sensor test

Hi guys, Anyone know how to test the 4 wire 02 sensor on a rev3 turbo? I'm getting consistently rich running conditions, sometimes hitting 11.5 ish on idle (AEM Wideband in my downpipe). When travelling it rarely hits the 14's, sometimes sitting at around 13.4 on a cruise. Car's been running for 30 ...

Re: Kiefers Rev 4 T Top turbo conversion project

Out of curiosity, what was the name of the guy you got the rev1 engine off? I think it's the same guy that bought my rev3 3S lump.

Thanks, not prepared to pay that much with bolster wear on both. There was a set going recently for £230 in the same condition.

Cheers,

Re: Pistons

That's ridiculous lol. He's been quality to deal with with me.

£480 still a good price, I'd go for 86.5mm ones to get a proper bore and good ring clearance. Just make sure the person building knows what they're doing please!
