Hello everyone.

Today was a sad day for me. I found out I'm in need of some new wheel bearings (specifically the rear right ones) and a steering rack end.

the parts are priced reasonably, but im wondering if anyone has any suggestions for cheap labor thats actually good. I talked to trojan today and their labor costs are causing the repair costs to easily hit $1000 which im not exactly happy with spending at the moment.

that would help heaps if someone could. So far Kasko is looking in to it. Basically 1 grand at the moment for my car just isn't worth it, which is pretty sad to say. The wheel alignments and stuff the car will need after can be done cheap, so thats not a problem

actually the labor worked out to be more than parts. I think I'll order the parts first, then consider doing it myself/getting help.

but can someone explain the whole bearing situation; when someone says the bearings need to be pressed in, is that the bearings or the assembly? cause I read a thing on here before and im pretty sure the guy just jammed that stuff on

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
