Hi, do you still have the secondary split air pipe with check valve that connects to the Cat?
If so how much delivered to BN273DW?
Thanks
Chris

can you post some pics please

Oh yeah, sorry. My bad. So what kit have u used to install your 20b?
Sub frame etc?
I have been looking into this for a little while.
20b been sitting in garage about 18 months now!
I quite like the look of the Defined auto works solution.

Hi leeroy, what dry sump setup did u use ,on your 20b?
Is it a custom sump plate and uses an off the shelf pump?
Thanks
Chris

One way to ruin a nice afternoon drive!
Looks like the rear end went light on the crest of the hill as he turned to overtake.
No opposite lock to try and save it though!

Payment sent to your Paypal.
Cheers

Turbonetics 62-1 ball bearing.

Can you do it for £300 delivered?
Thanks
Chris

Not sure m8. Just trying to figure if I can make it work.
I need to replace a :censored::censored::censored::censored:e eBay manifold.
Do you know what turbo this was made for?
Would you do delivery on it?

Does the downpipe have a 2 bolt flange or has it been modded to v band?

Fuel or oil pressure ?

If your apexi has been fine for a year and no other changes have been made recently, it sounds like a faulty MAP sensor.
This could give you a rich idle and poor running as the engine would be running on the wrong part of the fuel and ignition maps.
Could also be a sticking Idle control valve. This would give the same symptoms.
The Apexi is notoriously bad for stable idle though.

Wtf?!!
Go Away!

As Dave say\'s, take the sump off so it will sit flatter. Try to sit it on a sheet of ply or something to protect the sump mounting surface.
An engine stand will flex too much in my experience.
Heat the bolt head with a blow torch, it is sometimes fitted with lock tight and this will help loosen it.
If you have a large mate, get him to hold the block while you put pressure on the bar.
It will take a lot of pressure but you should get it with the bar you have.
The bolt is torqued up to something like 190 ft lbs so you will need a lot more than this to crack it!
If you are doing this on your own, try bolting the block to the floor with a metal bracket. It is sometimes easier to crack this bolt before the engine is removed from the car.
Keep at it, you\'ll get there in the end. And the satisfaction of rebuilding your own engine is worth all the hassles.
Good luck
