heater matrix 100% if your getting wet feet, its failed... and its a dash out jobbie to change it... 9/10 there just blocked... they get clogged up with shit so easily... take both the water hoses off at the back of the engine bay. jubliee a hose pipe onto one end and turn tap on... you'll see all sorts of SHIT come out other side (take other hose off or it goes in ya engine)... Some people have had to fill it with water and put some cleaning solutions in there to get rid of the shit/grim which is another option... Good Luck!

Bit of a bad example cus the td04 starlet launched off boost... soon as they were out of 1st gear tho, made the ct9 starlet look like it was going backwards... and racing in 1st gear is no kind of race Not that much quicker to come on boost... if you cant change the gears fast enough to keep the boost up then you cant drive lol... even granny shifting if you rev to 7k and change you'll be well within boost for next gear the people that moan about lag is the prople that clearly havent been in one

stock ct9 is good for upto 210bhp+ with the right mods read the guide in my sig

oil seals if left unused for long periods of time can become frail and start to fail... weather it be stem seals, oil seal in turbo... they all suffer from it... if you plan on leaving your car for long periods of time id recommend running it up to temp every now and then to keep things circulating
-
spool time from 2000rpm to boost. and inbetween gears is very different.... if i beef my car, rev it round to 6500-7000rpm change gear, there is no delay it kicks you back again straight away... depends what gear your in, if you can drive ct9 wont stay anywhere near a td04 however, zoe... go stock ct9 or td04! but as i said supporting mods first
-
if the car stands for long periods of times... the valve stem seals could be the culprit... but tbh lew... 90% sure it will be the ct9 oil seals.. the oil seals failiing wont effect how it boosts or performs if its only smoking a little bit.... Imo, go TD04 or find a low milage healthy ct9... Hybrids i just cant justify there costs...
-
there like 3quid for a new belt... but if it aint broke dont fix it... see wat condition your old one is in. if it looks fraid, cracked... replace it
-
There are plenty of supporting mods you need to buy first zoe fmic, decat, exhaust, manifold, fuel pump, hks actuator, plugs. etc

blue smoke on throttle is gonna be: turbo seals piston rings headgasket failure between cylinder and oil way or blocked breather Check for shaft play like adam said.. ct9's are getting on abit now! Compression test will enlighten you the ring wear... see wat psi u can build on a warm engine! May also show h/g failure, though that is a long shot! clean breathers out, but very unlikely! Only thing that can really fail on breather setup is pcv valve. but just unplugging it and blanking it off from inlet you can easily rule that out? Good Luck Lew!

this is a gauging interest, and not a plan set in stone yet, for that exact reason dude.... dont be a wuss Yeh, multi forum meet is best, but this thread is purely to get a list of names from uksc side of things... Since he was a trader on there they can then just add the list onto there list and we'll have a full list of everyone going!
