    forward motion squeak/Chirp

    For a while now my car has made a strange noise. It sometimes happens when I go over bumps, but not very often. It happens usually when I am changing gear and the car loads back up, it can happen if im driving slowly and mash the accelerator. Basically it seems to be when the car gets lateral...

    Joined the Dark Side Turbo 431Bhp!

    Looks great, can you keep your a/c as well with the turbo setup? Is yours to the right of the engine in the airbox space or behind the block? Would you expect only wastegate pressure for around 300bhp?

    9J rims on springs?

    Cheers, think the 9Js are et 45 so not as much poke as a 37 but then that's on a 8.5j as you say. I know they fit as several people have them in its just if they will fit with only springs and no height adjustability is the question.

    9J rims on springs?

    Evening, been looking at a lot of wheel options tonight, and now have it in my head that If I want RPF1s they have to be 9J's. I know I need 8mm spacers and longer hub bolts for caliper clearance on the front, and my rear arches are already rolled, but will this work with only lowering...

    Admiral

    Tim, got a great quote but was advised that the car on the system is a DC2 1.8 but that the agent had spoken to the underwriter who understood it was a DC5 2.0 and that the quote and policy in general is valid. Little concerned about that, can you clarify at all and confirm it will be properly...

    Idle problem

    I believe theirs a method to have the ecu relearn the idle point, I think you disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, then when car is completely cold start it up and either rev it at 3k until the fans come on or leave it for a good while until the fans kick in.

    Starting tyre temps

    Sorry I should of said, the tyres are Bridgestone RE070's 225/45/17. The pressures are a lot lower than I was expecting, do people set them to this at the track and have them higher for the journey home? thanks for the feedback and information, its my first trackday and I am really looking...

    Starting tyre temps

    Hey all, got my firsttrack day at Croft on Monday 6th - what would people recommend for starting tyre pressures? I won't have the facility to change them I don't think during the day so need something safe first and foremost. Cheers, Rob
