    I got an alternator
  6. Pop some pics up, do a google aswell there maybe threads and site info on spotting fakes but it can be really hard the Chinese have cottoned on and starte making them very hard to spot
  7. I'd check the voltage output of the alternator, the bouncing and jerking maybe something else, mine does it occasionally I've a feeling it's icv related revs bounce and if you haven't got your foot on the throttle the car jerks
  8. Ya, I have to agree with Matty, I've dealt with Mike before he's offered me advise on my afrs and given me target afrs for my car to fuel safely, and has gone through it all carefully explaining it to me. I can't help but think things are getting blown out of proportion and a bit of Chinese whispers is occurring. Really think it should be dealt with fairly and like gentlemen before harming the reputation of a long serving specialist company. Fair play if your annoyed but these things happen... It could be a horrible coincidence or just bad luck who knows! I'd just take mike up on the offer
  9. I don't think it quiet works how your thinking mate, Definately research it heavily, you may be right but I believe that your current ECU wont be able to read the map sensor because of the scaling of the ECU. If you were to use one yod need an ECU that is programmed to read that map sensor. I may well be wrong so don't take that as gospel, but I'd certainly not rush into it as it'll potentially become very expensive. Also, I wouldn't push your engine if your going to forge it, either you can sell yours for decent money which can help find the forged build or you can use your engine, and compo
  10. Pics should be re appearing shortly I'm guessing as photobucket are American? That it will be midnight USA which is 5 hours lol. Who knows!? Will do a deal on head, cams, and can gear as a whole, and will do small discounts for those buying a number of items. I have a new car with any luck I'll be collecting it tomorrow aslong as it is as described, so need to sell a few bits to fund tax and test! On another note; *forged pauter 4e rods, arp 2000 bolts sold* *forged wiseco 74.5mm pistons sold* Thanks a lot! Sorry about the pics!
  11. Use the turbosmart instruction manual it can be found online, I had to use the online version
  12. Ya don't swap that my mate done it with a mr2 sensor he loved the power increase (running lean) he's a mechanic and didn't take the hint of it dropping plug tips and I also told him it won't be working right he got beat by a vts put it back on, beat the vts... Melted a piston, seized his engine etc etc
  13. They say they don't need it but I always run it, they have tapered threads to ensure a seal
  14. I have one, it's not usable are you after spares or something
  15. * 98 spec bumper sold * awaiting collection from courier. I will take offers now as I'm very close to having the money I need for my new car. Some prices dropped/removed for offers, if you want pictures pm me and I'll sort you them out via something like Facebook. Cheers, Toby!
  16. Get a build thread up or update his dude can't wait to see some progress on this it's interesting. Im sure you'll have no troubles anyways, I take it your good with a spanner or two owning a vauxhaul. (had to be said haha) You have a forum FULL of support here!
  17. This is getting boring, c'mon Paul up the antics a bit!
  18. Wow, that's a great promise and memorial. Good luck!!
  19. Wouldn't recommend removing the lamda can you move it to the spark plug? Is the spark plug there as a bung or some form of flamer?
  20. Looks shit. Who'd even think that!? Cannot wait to play this! Completed the rest
  21. I know, but they cost around £100 from rhd Japan mate and from what I understand they're specific ones not oem
  22. Thing with that is 260bhp is not far off what standard rods run over here, let alone what is said to be run on stock lumps in Jamaica.
