do you just have the actuator or do you have the mounting bracket and the arm?

You said that you are going to use the standard arm but i don;t think that'll work because you need an arm with an internal thread and the factory actuator and arm are 1 piece.

Post up a pic' of the kit.

Here's my actuator setup, it a Garrett item but it's the same as the HKS ones;

Its a brand new actuator from nengun

holds the 1bar, being the "heavy duty" hks item

has the actuator top hat and rod, bag of nuts/washers and bottom screw rod for the actuator

plus the mounting bracket and braided rubber hose

the full kit as alan said.

yeah mate I had the $20 bleed valve on there but chucked it for a ebc pretty much when I did the safc install 2yrs ago.

its never held boost properly, last tune went from 14 down to 12's for 180ish kw,

with 1.0 bar + 1.2 bar dialed on the dual stage ebc Im confident now it will be good to go.

the exhaust is flowing well, got good intake and cooling, fueling is ok, got the adjusters to get the tune good, and (secrets out) Im doing a deal atm for a remapped chip + adapter.......

will get the adjusters safc/sitc/fpr/cam-gear all sorted once the ecu is done in around 2 months time, serviced, hope for 200kw+ for sure

:)

im actually hoping for 220rwkw from the auto with the front driveshaft dropped at 17psi

but with the ecu remap, with ecu-chip adapter plate and data from japan, it wont be perfect out of the box, so still limited by the piggybacks.

but meh, not after top power, want perfect acceleration from the awd auto. traffic light GP's are all mine (yeerrrrrr~ lol !)

:)

yeah maybe dean, we'll see what ryan wants to do, if he's up for the drive down south then its all good matey.

when ya getting the last of your pc parts old fella?

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
