Abe I'm 99% sure it's the video card. It stuffed up about a yr ago, replaced with a second hand one where the fan wasn't working properly for it.

Any idea where to get a basic video card from? Don't use the comp for games etc so just need a basic one.

Cheers.

ur diagnostic skills are fail... =P

if i was a betting, wow, i'd probably put my car up on it not being the video card =D

could be soo many other things making it do that... number 1 is the power supply! i'll also throw my hat in the ring and offer u some free help, just lmk

ps. hoodie thread up soonish

Luke, i just worked out what it is... =D

but i'm not going to tell you what it is because if you try to fix it and mess up you could end up killing stuff!

however i will say this, whoever you take it to will set it up and it'll probably turn on first time, straight away and u'll both be like "hu?" =P

^ what a graph card that's not seated correctly in it's slot?

wow, i should actually start taking bets with people on this! =P

no, as i said before, nothing to do with vidoe card... unlikley that one would just randomly pop out!! =\

Tell tell..... I'll give good prices on jap stuff lol

just drop round and i'll fix, fix!

edit: and coz u get me good prices i wont slug you the $40 i would to a customer for fixing it =P

With big turbos cams can make you up to 50kw depending on the size of the turbo and the amount of head work done as they allow you to move the turbos into their efficiency range, but like chad said with small turbos they won't affect peak power much but will allow you to move the power around the rev range and can get you some nice gains on torque.

Here's some graphs from when we were playing with the cam gears on my car.

George and Theo are excellent guys. Havn't had any work done by them, but never heard a bad word about their work :ph34r:

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
