Nothing bud, no need if you're not putting the cover back on. I've done it too (check my build thread)

 

[rsmith]

Thanks for the tip lads, i guess everyday is a school day round here.

Much better.

 

[Ape]

much better

much better

Thanks, i might have a look at the fuel rail tomorrow, get them wires out of the way and use some nice black mesh rap to tidy them up.

 

[rsmith]

Well my 1bar actuator still has not arrived, but luckily some other goodies did, as below, did any of your guys also replace the bolts when changing the wishbone bushes or is it "ok" to re-use the old ones?

 

[Willie]

I replaced mine but hen refitted then I fitted as per workshop manual, which was wrong.
Next time I'd refit the old ones and tighten them up good

Cheers, i will use Ronin225 guide along with some other guides off the web, none of them mention replacing the bolts, i imagine the workshop manual would recommend this but then again they recommend replacing any and all bolts once they come out.!

How many miles have you on your bolts, mine are on 48k?

 

[Willie]

Mine were 82,000 miles, so were due to get changed.
Also these are stretch bolts so realistically they should be changed after every use

 

[Ape]

We just reused the bolts with mine. Shouldn't be a problem, when I freshen up the underneath I'll sort out most of the bolts and replace with new Only did my polybushes the other weekend

LOL, thats the answer i was looking for..

 

[Murdered LCR]

With the fuel rail you can remove all that plastic crap and tuck the wires underneath the rail that way you don't see any thing

 

[rsmith]

This is might thought of the day and i think its quite apt.

 

[Willie]

Oh no, what's wrong now?
Stick with an OEM KO4 and a good stage 2 map.
Less hassle, less money but less boost too

 

[rsmith]

4k spend and the think can't flow thats whats up.

 

[truss]

i know its a slightly different application being a k03, but i won't ever send my turbo to CR.

 

[Murdered LCR]

So now rsmith when I said hybrids fail now do you believe me lol , that 4k could have had one hell of a gt28 set up ,

Nice one dan, plenty of sympathy and understanding there for a fellow modder who maybe would appreciate a more positive reply at this time.

 

[Murdered LCR]

Every thing has been tried tho , still don't see how yours is fine and bills made 344bhp from one i thought cr turbos were the good ones and TD made crap ones , why does one car make power and the others don't ? He has every mod the others do

Why would you not use CR?

LOL, true dat, but there was real potential there to get a hybrid for fellow peeps that could product 320+ hp and all they would need is a shopping list of mods, that was the aim.

Thanks Willy.
