Thanks for that buddy, having read it it makes perfect sense now now we just gotta figure out a way to liberate the decibels and get keep the power too then )

Resonator boxes on an NA do more than just reduce sound. I wouldn’t go tearing them off in a such a hurry. I'm not questioning the answer, will believe people more knowledgeable than myself, but I'd be very interested in the physics behind this?? I like to know the how's and whys of what's best for...

Ok thanks pal, was thinking of just liberating intake decibels, but don't want to make it slower at all for sure.
I've already fitted a k&n cone to the original rubber pipework (just replaced air box with cone) but doesn't really give that intake roar I like so much.

As per title really, I'm wondering if it's possible to change the revs when the acis system kicks in, to much lower, like about 3 k ish? Thinking because it sounds beautiful when it's open, but I don't want to drive everywhere at 6 grand! And are there any disadvantage to doing it?? Thanks in advanc...

So it turns out one of the coils inside the alternator had broken down from hitting the casing (re previous thread about couldn't stop it seizing). Be done in couple a days

I'll go borrow a multi meter tomorrow and get results thanks, it was a cash job so no official receipt but I've used the guy a few times over the years so hopefully he'll re do it again free if it is that.

As per title, suddenly the lights dropped dim and battery meter reading about 11 volts, but didn't continue dropping, just running lower on charge than it should. I have a reconditioned alternator in there, only about 2 months old ish. But when I checked for a loose belt, tension was fine but notice...

Ok, so the bit I'm struggling with is how to get the hub and shock to realign so as to get the carrier bolts in. The hub doesn't seem to want to go low enough, any hints and tips welcome please

Thanks buddy, gonna go have a stab now, long as the rain holds off at least anyways

Am tackling the top mounts today as soon as I wake up ( work nights :-( ) and have read all the guides, very useful to all who took the time thankyou. Question is, do you finally torque up the top 4 nuts and strut top nut once the car is back on the ground with weight on it, or does it not matter?? ...

Cool thanks bud. The only one I'd found with a google search was from nengun, and have read some pretty crappy things about them.

As per the title really, I want a apexi induction kit for a rev 5 na, but they seem to be very hard to get over here. Any experience of a reliable company much appreciated please??

So finally, it lives again :-D turns out, there was a small crack in the bottom bolt section of the casing, and when tightening the bolt, it was distorting the housing slightly, just enough to stop it spinning. Of course, as soon as it was undone it would spin again which is why it was so hard to fi...

Don't think so, was able to easily put a full half twist into the belt with just a finger and thumb, at the middle point between the two pulleys. Tis what I was always told that would make tension about right.

I don't know how to add images on here to be honest.

Yep, everything spun free and lined up perfectly, just as soon as I turned it over it locks up.

Ok, so having some problems, please help. As soon as I turn the key, the alternator seizes up. I've had it reconditioned so in theory is as good as new. I install the bracket (3 bolts 2 nuts) then the alternator (2 bolts and tension and plug and earth) so is there something I'm missing. This is gett...

Thankyou so much, I've been swearing at it for it feels like forever!!

So I'm rejuvenating the mr2 after being parked up for 18 months, alternator had seized so got it out and had it reconditioned. The problem refitting is I can't get the bottom section of the casing into the bracket. It took some 'gentle persuasion' to get it out, but it appears as if the bracket is a...

I could be interested in this, is it a case of fix the piston ring and then plug and play so to speak? In other words, Does it come with everything needed for a turbo conversion? I don't mind getting the spanners out to fix it but dint want to be chasing/buying loads more bits.
Thanks
