Not sure yet, i've only driven it out of the workshop so far, going to change the wishbone bushes again as one looked a bit suspect, then camber and track it up and see how it goes.

Otherwise it will be a Vectra again lol

I've been trying to sort the knocking noise i can't find, replaced wishbones and polybushes again last night and touch wood haven't heard anything yet.

Boost problem has come back again tho :(

Got camber and tracking to set today, brake fluid change and a few other bits to get done and then i think i'll be ready

good look mate hope it boostin ok for wkend

It's only loosing 3psi again so still pulls okay once it's up and running

boost leak...any ideas as to where yet?

Last time it was leaking from the N75 - actuator but only at spike, was still holding full boost till redline, i've replaced the pipe so will be checking that first and working from there

think you have as much trouble with your motor as i do :lol:

hope you get it sorted for cadwell matey

The joys of a mk2 ibiza, your always guaranteed somethings going to go wrong, even more so when it's running a 20vt lump

Looking amazing as all ways ben, hoping to get my new machine on the track next year be knockhill for me though closest to me.

Cheers mate, i see you've aquired yourself a new toy, good call, im sure you'll enjoy it

Noise fixed at last "touches wood"

Well looks like i've finally got to the bottom of the knocking noise (i hope)

After replacing the wishbone bushes for harder race bushes i'd lost the knocking noise but gained the most annoying squeaks that i couldn't live with and i didnt like the way the car drove (bit to hard for my liking)

Today i fitted 2 new wishbones but decided to remove the rear bushes and fit the solid LCR bushes, it's now camber and tracked up again and drives spot on, at present no more knocking but cadwell on sunday will be real test.

Car is now back together parked up ready for sunday when i'll finally be able to give it a proper pasting and see how good the suspension and turbo setup is.
