Hi everyone, got my line about 6 months ago and pretty happy with it,

its a 93 Gts-t with a Trust jasma zorst looks like 3 1/2 full exhaust system with hi-flow cat and a k&n air pod,

The problem im getting is the pop pop pop at around 4,000 and upwards, ive been reading the other threads and lots of ppl have been sayin about the plugs needing remapping but my mate reckons its got to do with overboosting coz my zorst and filter is causing the turbo to get more boost and overboost,

just wana get other ppls ideas and thoughts to get rid of this problem will a fuel-cut defender help???:(

Take out your plugs, but before you do that go and buy a spark plug feeler guage. (only about $10)

Then pull out the slides so it adds up to .8. Put the slide in between the gap of the plug, then bend the top of the plug so it sits flush with the slides.

I bet you have no idea what I am talking about cause its pretty hard to describe.

ok, first thing is to remove the pipe that goes over the engine..

u have to take out 2 bolts and losen a few clamps and remove some hoses, also remove the hose that goes over the engine at the front

then unplug your amplifier (black box that sits at the back of engine)

then using allum key remove bolts from black cover (bout 4 on each side).. this will then left off exposing your coil packs.

These are bolten on in 3, easiest is just to get a 12mm socket and remove all the bolts at once... then pull up on the black boxes (coil packs), they have a bit of suction so u need a bit of force, but be gentle at the same time cos I hear they break easy.

Now its as easyt as removing your plugs, and re gapping them. You would need a spark plug remover that is quite tall as they are sunk in fairly deep. Auto barn will have a re gapper thing and spark plug remover.. then re gap to .8

Put it back together making sure all hoses are tight etc. Should be fine. If your still missing, the plugs may need replacing or you could have faulty coil packs..

hope that helped.

      Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.

      I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.

      From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.

      They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
