Ok when the car is first started up from cold I get 65-70 psi which is around 4 and a half bar/5bar. When the car is all warmed up and on idle I get about 20psi which is about 1.4 bar that's with the Rev needle on 1k revs, Of course using the revs the oil pressure will go up and taking foot of throttle pedal it will go back down again, obviously if I used the screw on the throttle body and now idled at 1200 revs the oil pressure will go up slightly, hope this makes sense decdd :-)

I'm thinking same as you gorgan I would be very very surprised if the crank didn't need a regrind, I did an engine rebuild, and thanks to a good mechanic and a very trusted person on here I got through it, but it was a lot of ball ache and stress at the time, I would personally, get the crank out (I know it's much more work) and get it to a engineers place it needs to be checked, and measured etc etc, other then that try find a good crank which is fine (think socks had one for sale) but you just can't put new big and main bearings in a think it's gonna be ok, it is a pain in the ass I know I b

patman replied to patman's topic in I Spy, Have You Been Spotted?
Hello sparky mate yes I would like to know who, these are a rare breed in Brighton never see any around Ps where did you see it parked mate? What part of the marina? -
Spotted this tonight in Brighton marina parked up in McDonald's car park, don't hardly see any glanzas in this area let alone GT's. Black glanza red alloys and looked like red bucket seats too anyone on here?
-
Yes Ads of course mate looking forward to seing this
-
Must get down on a Sunday soon mate see how the cars doing hope your ok 👍🏻
-
Standard ones do from time to time
-
Yeah I know the feeling mate money is a pain in the ass, yeah them eBay ones are rubbish, went through two of them in a matter of months, ok if you get a standard one there is a restrictor in the 3rd port, someone on here will know how to grind/dermel it out etc, so that could be a good start for you
-
Maybe you should go for an aftermarket one mate as these standard ones are restricted
-
Yeah here's my glow panel too, as dale said thy come up from time to time but they are not cheap either someone wanted 200 quid for one although whitenoize on here has one for 60 pound yes it has a crack in it, but to be honest I don't think your gonna get one that cheap, I haven't got any cracks in mine, but a sheet of tint or flyeye will cover the crack in whitenoize one I would personally go for the one he has for sale
-
Not that I am aware of mate but someone will know the answer to that on here, when you have your lights on does the little glow panel light up
-
Yeah same as mine, I have a mark 2 with mark 1 boot lid on with glow badge/panel K reg?

Will definitely be interested socks 👍🏻 Ash mate I should imagine someone has sanded it off, behind the glow panel is there 2 little lights mate,try get pics up aswell would help a lot better

No mate there not stickers 👍🏻
