    S15 Tractor Noise

    Hello everyone I've experienced this many times, when my car is idling it'd sound like a tractor. Sound occurs quite frequently and some days it'd sound perfectly fine. When i release the clutch to the clutch point and give gas it goes away. I've done a few research and found out it had...

    FS: VVT Sprocket

    Slight change of plan in one of my projects means that I have a VVT sprocket up for sale. I am going HKS Cams with standard pullies etc. It has done 37k with no noise what so ever, you can even have the solenoid with it. No idea what it's worth so I'll say £150 due to low mileage and see what...

    EBC fitting..

    When fitting an EBC do you have to remove or block up this sensor...? Also what is it/what does it do? I've removed the boost solenoid on the LH strut, but this is on the RH strut. :)

    Weird boost issue

    Had my car and boost settings setup by Jez ( ), I managed to damage the wire from my Solenoid to the main unit in the car, this caused my boost to run at around stock (slightly less - 0.7bar) from the 1+bar it had been. I got a replacement wire, made no difference. I then replaced the...

    WTB: Boost Solenoid

    If anyone has their stock boost solenoid laying around and no longer needs it Id be happy to take it off their hands. Would really like one of these before the weekend, but this might be pushing it. Anything else thats cheap and suitable will be considered too. Thanks, Darren
