    Bent wheel nut

    one of these should do it if you dont have a welder.... http://imgc.classistatic.com/cps/blnc/130202/622r1/07258j4_20.jpeg
  2. Id run it on a dyno or something to get it up to those high speeds/temps and see if something fails or it happens again.....
  3. Spot on thanks. After looking at what i have found i am now under the impression the unrestrictive manifold and 2nd decat leading into the standard diameter piping will actually likely be more beneficial.
  4. Im hopefully buying a new manifold form a member on here but i just wanted to check a few things first. Currently i have the standard backbox, both silencers under the car deleted and a 3" 2nd decat. The manifold obviously deletes the first cat, by question is will i loose too much back pressure, or because i have the stock diameter pipe it should be ok? Also ignore the arb, on the list of things to be repaired! This is the current setup on my car.
  5. Cool thanks. As i said it was just something in the meantime, but if i wont notice a difference ill just hold off fitting the ecu for a while.
  6. Cool. I've seen dyno's of n/a's hitting quite good dyno results with full exhaust and replacement ecu, over 200at the wheels, but they were standalone ecu not piggyback. But im not looking for power, was just wondering as ill have the ecu before the other turbo bits whether it would make any changes.
  7. Just wondering with my na, now its got a full exhaust 2nd decat and manifold removing first cat, panel filter would it be necessary to have it mapped by fitting a piggyback? Granted Nat will happen at some point but I am thinking in the meantime?
  8. Woops I may ask toyota for a price on jspecs?!

    Why oh why !!

    Id look at dealing with this in a different way. You clearly need to get something off your chest or out of your head. Sure there are lots of people on here willing to have a chat, even some service men/woman. Id would ask in a more constructive way and you WILL get a constructive and helpful response. Id make use of this rather than risking loosing help from here as well!
  10. 1/2 a year! Probs not worth it then.
  11. Looks much better Can you buy plastic headlights new still? Surely they take years to go bad...
  12. Put bond on them 2 extra times now. Gonna put shed loads all around the outside and hope that sorts it, if not ill just get new ones. Cant get them apart again now though as the last time i used uber strong sealant.
  13. I sprayed the whole insert. Loads easier and looks better i think. Just cant stop mine fogging up now
  14. Hmmm rare colour Welcome
  15. It happened to me the other day. Other car was a hyundai coupe!
  16. The cap is unreadable, read my first post Hmm i realised my search error, found it when i tried again just now.
  17. I remember reading somewhere it had to be a specific one. Or am I going mad?
  18. The fluid in my powersteering is looking pretty god awful. Just wondering what is the recommended fluid to use to fill it back up? The lid it a bit knackered so cant really read what it says on the top.
  19. Very true, thats why i said i doubt they make cold air feed pipe suitable Ive given up with induction kits, although i want one i want the most power my n/a can give
  20. I twould be better to fit the apexi as its meant to be then get a very large cold air feed, like a tumbledryer hose size, and put this over the filter. That way its enclosed with the cold air feed being direct. Not sure if they make the pipe that large though
  21. I think the hks mushroom ones sound the dogs personally But as many have said you'll knock the performance a bit by fitting an induction kit. (I still really want one though )
