Engine Loosing A Lot Of Power - Turbo Failing?
Try your fuel pump. Mine was doing the same. It would get to 3000 rpm and shudder. After changing my plugs and fuel filter I started to think about coils. After I took it to Blacktrack (Justin) he told me my fuel pump wasn't giving enough pressure. It was fine for normal driving, but it struggled under high boost. Now it doesn't miss a beat.

Are There Any Other Brand 245/30/20'S
Are there any other brands, other that Nankangs 245/30/20's, with the minimum load rating? They're too bloody loud and they're scrubbing out in about 15,000 - 20,000km. Any suggestions?

Dynamatting
I just after a little advice. I get really bad tyre noise from my fronts and will be replaceing them soon. But I'm wanting to dynamat either the floor or doors in an effort to reduce the road noise. I've already done the rear wall (BA Ute) and that helped alot. I have a bulk pack (3.33sq.m) and would like to know what to do first? The floor or doors. And if the floor, are there any tips to remove the seats and carpet Cheers

Repacing The Factory Lcd?
I've been looking into a carputer setup. I have a 04 Ba XR6T ute with premium sound (6 stacker, small screen) and I'm looking at replacing the small screen with the larger colour screen. The main purpose is that I want to have a car pc with touch screen, gps navigation. I've been looking at the software Centrafuse and I think that will do everything I want. Can you get a touch screen to replace the factor colour screen (So there is no need to get the touch screen flim to place on top of the factory screen). I still want it to work as standard eg, radio, cd, and still be able to use the volume control on the steering wheel Is there any other advantages in having a purpose touch screen LCD over the factory one with a touch screen cover. I've read most of the carputer forms and checked out ASL and carpcaustralia, but I'm still left with these Q's. Any advice would help

Brake Upgrade In Newcastle
I haven't read anywhere about the deference between my stock 287mm front to the stock 330 fronts. Would it be worth me upgrading the fronts to 330 PBR or equivalent with the DBA 4000/5000 instead of the rotors on their own in the 287mm

Any Ideas For Group Buys? - Window shopping for blokes...
[quote name='Basketballer_vince' post='578414' date='Sep 25 2007, 11:18 PM']when is there going to be another Value spring group buy ?[/quote] I'll be keen for valve springs if there are others out there. Plus a new cat to replace stock.

Custom Tune Question
If you have the same problems I had your valve springs will give you trouble above 250. I agree with BHHOON, your injectors will max out as well
