Car looked mint when you came to collect that exhaust. Surprised you haven't got it on yet!
cheers fella
it is on! lol couldnt wait to fit it, my last exhaust was 1 3/4" and boost used to creep to 0.9bar creeps to over a bar now.. got to be careful though because i havnt got manifold yet and i dont want to be boosting over 1bar really

does this make exhuasts pop and flame did i hear? ;)
-
could be but would it make a creaking noise?
very annoying though if you find the cure please let me know! lol
-
well i have recently changed my passenger side front wheel bearing about 2 months ago and the noise i got from that was completely different to the creaking i get now, it was more of a whirring noise that got noiser as i got faster..
sounds like something is getting caught up in the caliper or something. its coming from the same side as the wheel bearing i replaced though tbf.
-
think i may have the same troubles except only happens just as the car is coming to a stop..
likewise checked all mine everything was done up tight..
very annoying though sounds really bad too. ive got coilovers and my old man seems to think its the suspension..

okay thanks for the input suppose it could come down to a few things at the end of the day.

Speedo cable in clocks may be loose? Saying that because mine fell out lol

-
Have you got NOS?
If so:
lol! wtf?
-
Only recently started happening and havnt done nothing to the car to cause it.. but shakes up and down a lot when going around 60-70. I am using a speedo converter that goes into the gearbox could it be this?
also...lol
Fuel light wont turn off..filled it up when it came on and it has never switched off since! disconnected the battery, that didnt cure it.. ;)
Any one else conquered these little niggles please let me know how! ;)

try muteki nuts they come in red and blue i believe, light weight also. around £40ish mark and there all lockers..

I ran mine for 15mins ten it went lumpy, tapped throttle and left it for another 15mins and it was all good. Then took it for a gentle drive (didn't want to rag it straight away in case it ran lean). Next day took it for a drive, warmed it up fully and fed the boost in gradually until it was flat out. It should adjust itself fully by about 100 miles ;)
cheers dude
-
^Yes!
lol haha how long do i leave it out for? and roughly how many miles till its properly bedded in?
-
ive got a blitz one on mine and it fucking stinks of fuel do you think it would be worth unplugging it and putting it back in letting it idle for a while ?

You can also try the next thing to find out if it's the wheel bearing:
Drive on a straight road
Press in the clutch
Wave from left to right over the road, not to fast just a nice wave, if you hear any noise then its almost sure the wheel bearing
will give that one a go to lol but its got worse and worse and you can hear it grinding now when you jack it up and give the wheel a spin. can feel the vibrating through the floor. got a wheel bearing from camskill today anyway soo hopefully ;)
cheers fellas.

if its in reading. count me in
-
havnt tried that one yet.. gave the wheel a wobble and it didnt have any play and it doesnt make any noise while its jacked up, ill give that a shot
