the pic is where i had the needle go the furtherest... which when i cut out the speedo in paint and rotate it so the lines continue works out to be about 220... got a little scarey after that on the rough part of the "track"

i guess my 220 in my 1987 alfa sounds even more impressive that what i already thought it was :(

Pushead, sounds like you need a wheel balance something shocking! I'm not trying to be a hero, but in my sil, i can go 180 no worries on stock suspension (in controlled environments of course!!! hahaha)

Take your car to a place like Bob Jane or Beaurepairs and get a wheel balance. Pretty sure stock suspension should be that bad!

yep, no problems will certainly need a wheel balance.. crusin down to the city today at 120km and car was shaking even at that speed.. $10 bucks a wheel rite?

RSR -  just feels like the engine cuts out hard and then it like staggers til it drops down then back up again... like the more u press down on the accelerator the less it goes. Makes a lot of popping noises too

btw this post has the pic as i will remember to attach it this time.

You just damn crazyman inark!... gee's.. how the hell did make it?

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
