Not in a rush to sell, but running out of space, so needs to go to make space for other things.

Need more info just ask.

Done on a couple of cars, there are plenty of procedures of how to do it on line, you need a corner weight gauge of some sort, I think I used a Pace one.  You will need to have adjustable pre-load spring/shocks to do this. You also need a very flat surface otherwise you may be wasting your time.

One possible procedure is http://7faq.com/owbase/ow.asp?FlatFloorSetup.

You may need to have about a 1/2 to a full day.

Thanks - but no thanks, looking a good stock replacement

Is the dash in good condition and for sale? How much delivered IV30 1LU?

Genneral US spec, so some difference between JDM and UK, but generally good

Hi, checked pricing with freight company and the costs are a little high to make it worthwhile. I will leave the gearbox for now.

I will speak to a freight company next week, to see if they will sort it out, i.e.. put it on a pallet etc.

I am in aberdeen, so will need to get a courier to collect would that be ok?

Is the box in working condition, are asking anything for it, or do you just want rid of it?

Managed to over boost while setting up a new boost controller, the data logger shows 13.2 AFR 0,95 bar boost.  Drove home on one rotor.  

Looks like I need a rebuild!

Who does a rebuild in a reasonable time frame?  Without costing huge amounts

I have just removed a Profec B Spec 2 boost controller and it was fine prior to removal, making whatever boost I had the controller set at.  

I had installed the small pipe (with pill) where the controller connects but not the reconnected the other pipe that was removed and blanked gto allow the boost controller to work - this is the wastegate actuator outflow.

The 0.5 bar is the spring rating of the stock wastegate.

So you could have a similar issue.  Fuel pump is nothing to do with making boost, unless you have a major issue, then the engine would not rev, the stock engine will make 10 psi at around 2000 rpm if everything else is ok.

But to answer your question, not sure what you would prove doing a run without the cat?

When I first got my car I drove from the Souith Coast to Aberdeen and averaged mid 30 mpg, so it is posible, the car was stock.

Take look here, there is an upgraded radiator with an external auto trans cooler.
