  1. Hi Lads, At the risk of sounding like an absolute dummy, I have to ask: What are sump baffles? What do they do? Thanks in advance.
  2. Well done Squizz, couldn't have said it better myself... On another note: The reason for only disconnecting the negative terminal is because if a spark does occur when you are reconnecting (due to some sort of fault discharge), the spark will occur on the ground side of devices (eg ecu), not on the positive. This means that a discharge will flow from the device to a solid earth as opposed to a positive terminal disconnection where the fault occurs from the + terminal through the device. Hope this makes sense, I read that somewhere...
  3. A bit harsh mate... give the dude a break. Not a good start to your post count, is it?
  4. Hey lads, Remove the turbo heat shield and this appears a little simpler. There is a hose that runs from the soleniod to the wastegate actuator (brass hat-thing) - the actuator is easy to identify because it has a metal arm that physically moves and opens the bypass on the exhaust side of your turbo. When installing a bleed valve, simply cut this pipe and insert your valve. Be careful when upping your boost, these bleed valves have been known to produce boost spikes and increase a few psi boost with minimal turning of the knob. Oh yeah, and you don't have to remove/cut any other pipes or lines for the install (unless you are installing an electronic boost controller, in which case you are supplied with a different solenoid and pressure sensor). Hope it helps,
  5. Thanx BigDatto,' I'll be doing the same soon - you help might save me some headaches!
  6. I may be interested... I would like some pics first though, just to see what I might be buying. Please pm me the pics, or just post them here
  7. VSPEC, What I meant by "not round" is that the holder is a round shape, with widened areas on the 'corners' where he screws sit. Pain in the ass shape...
  8. Thanks guys, I've just purchased one (series 1)
  9. I pulled my fronts out and replaced them with 6.5'' ones with alot of stuffing around. I'm pretty sure they are 5 1/4'' size, but they are not round and have a kinda lip on the corners where the screws sit. I recommend doing a search of past threads - some lads claim that some 6'' fit straight in, others are sceptical. I know from experience, 6.5'' is definitely too big to fit inside stock holders without jigsawing a custom spacer.
  10. An Apexi S-AFC I would also be ok. There is not much difference between the two models, except the buttons on the controller.
  11. Now that I have 40 posts up, I can place an ad in WTB! I'm after a second hand Apexi S-AFC II controller. You know the blue screen model. Obviously I will only buy one that is in immaculate condition, so please only respond it you're genuine. Don't forget to include your asking price if you pm me.
  12. Good luck finding anyone who knows about them. Damn that car must be sweet!
  13. I did it myself - very easy. 1. Remove ashtray. Remove screws 2. pop out panel around gear shifter. 3. Remove more screws where ashtray was 4. pop out entire dash - it is all one piece 5. All screws are clearly seen from here Knock yourself out!
  14. Very, very interesting information - thanks heaps
  15. Yeah, search the threads - and I reckon only use the top shite engine oil Mobil 5W-50
  16. It is possible to only lose a few - must be like Jay95R33 says
