I dont think it is because when i de catted it there wasnt any oil anywhere inside, and that was after the first time with the blue smoke
-
When i say top up i literally mean like 2mm below full though! It doesnt leak, slight seeping for the front main i think but not enough to warrant getting it done, it never leaves drops of oil on the floor anywhere
-
Right, my gt has done this a few times, ill randomly notice it plooming blue smoke when i pull away, then it stops completely and it wont do it for weeks. T The first time was when i was in a car wash and it was idling the whole time while it got washed, when i left it smoked like fuck, then yesterday after i rolled down the spiral of a multistorey and drobve off it smoked again, not loosing loads of oil, done like 5000kms since ibve had it and ive had top it up like twice? The turbo seems fine as when i fitted my decat there was no excessive play in the shaft

Anyone who's gonna be underneath their gt soon!

The top mounts are the same way round, it was wandering before i fitted the coilys anyway, sorry had a retarded moment, not even 3 lol! Before After -
Could anyone tell me if the gaps behind the driveshafts and the chassis are the same both sides while the car has weight on it? Have got more caster on the passenger side it think, wanted to see if it's normal or if I do have a bent arm Or something underneath My driver side has hit in the past, might of been ruined engine mounts, not sure, I had The car laser aligned (again) and it turns out Kwikfit left it toeing out 30 degrees both sides, which explains why it always wandered and was generally all over the place.

Set of 4 Rota slipstreams in white, one with kerb damage, no tyres, how much should i stick them up for?
-
Yeah well tomorrow's my birthday and I've taken the day off work so I should be able to jack it up and have a mosey see if I can see of anythings bent, and hopefully I should get some presents for this aha!
-
Yeah I've seen the pic your mean, I don't think it's that bad although the tire on that side is wearing more on inside
-
There's a lot making me think something's bent, I get wheel wobble even the wheels are definitley balanced, had the tracking done but the car still feels a bit all over the place, yet it sticks lovely if you chuck it into a corner, will have to have a measure when I get a chance
-
So I had a day off work yesterday, finally managed to get the engine mounts done Old ones were pretty fubar Drives so much nicer with all poly mounts, doesn't vibrate that badly either And thanks to daniel_g for the help regarding a battery! Also, has anyone else had driveshafts hitting on a lowered gt before? My old starlet did it but it was a lot lower than this one, worries I've bought a bent starlet!
-
Looks brilliant mate, any plans for mods?
-
Pretty sure i was being retarded, measured to the top of the terminal and it was about the same as the bosch one i was looking so i just ordered it aha
-
Or am i being an idiot and the dimensions include the terminals in the height
-
Right, so my gt still has the japanese terminals, im looking at type 54 batteries but theyre all too tall? Can people link me to what batteries theyve bought?

What are the different sizes? I don't spose you can tell from the bay pictures up this page can you? Hmm I'm not sure, if it's cheap enough I'll do it but I'll have to speak to my mate at Essex Tints aha
-
So I've had to bump start this a few times now and it's getting tiring aha, what battery type are the gt turbo? Looking at a Bosch one type 054 for £45, meant for a Hyundai i10, will this fit? Yeah they yellows were on they're last legs so they've probably been in there a while, gonna try something like Morgey said next I reckon, need to get the brakes bled/fluid changed first Cheers bro! I need to sort out the scrubbing so I can get it level all round yet
