better call them easy not outs.. I've never succesfully used one, but they are a bugger to drill out when they get stuck in.

Just drill the whole thing out with the size drillbit for the same sized helicoil and put a helicoil in and you can then use a standard stud.

well .. you can't copy mine anymore .. i got rid of that horrible horrible mess of vacuum cables .. have fun..

both wheels will spin rotate in the same direction. But depending on your center diff it may take of bit of effort to turn the rears at all with only the rear jacked up. does not matter that the viscous lsd is not hot. If there is no resistance on the other wheel it will still pull it forwards. And ...

there was a match in your gearbox?? no wonder it broke..

jokes..

if you've lost or broken any of the twin turbo hoses valves solenoids or stuff you can have any of the leftover bits from my car. It doesnt use any of them anymore.

happy birthday jay ..

i have an odb-II -> usb cable i really dont use anymore (was for my 2001 b4, but im running motec now). It was from tactrix, they have since upgraded to openport 2.0, not sure what the difference is, mine is a 1.2 or 1.3 i think. If you would like to come round and try it out you can (im in subiaco)...

awesome work!! some of the big boys musta had some hard landings ... alot more weight coming down there..

yeah i got there about 6:30ish and it was closed.. otherwise i would have left some clutch smoke behind... (and run 12's).... maybe it was a good thing i didnt get in though because on the drive home my gearbox made some very suss noises from first gear.

tis $40 if your racing.
not sure i think its $12 if your not.

i'll head down if a few people are going. Haven't done anything to the b4 since last time but its always fun.

i've pulled it out and i can post it tomorrow if im not too busy at lunchtime at work. I'll let you know the postage. Shouldn't be much its pretty small and light.

its from a 2001 Lib B4 i assume its the same as you need?

just checking..

this is the beastie your after?

i have on in perth, if your local pm me and you can come grab it. otherwise if you cant find one local let me know i can post.

i want to use the valve to control idle, it used to be wired to the ecu and is now not wired to anything, i want to wire it to the motec and make it work.

Well i have further confused myself now after more testing. It currently has one wire power and another wire grounded and another left floating (probably went to ecu before i had my motec put in). What i cant figure out is if it is actually like this one (and my mechanics have permantly grounded one...

Does anyone know how these valves work? I have a wiring diagram that says the middle pin is power (+12v) and the other two are signal (master and slave). I assumed it was just two solenoids that needed power on the center and ground on the outside two to make it work, i was wrong. That doesnt seem t...

you know .. last time i replaced wheel bearings i think i used a peice of wood..

bit still .. nice press .. im sure you really needed it.

Im too scared to use the presses at work there all f*ing huge and will destroy anything if you get it slightly wrong.

depends on the model of the box, generally they will all put some drive to the rear if you just disconnect the front. None of them like doing it (it will break them). Even the new DCCD ones dont really like it. So if you need to remove a broken shaft and move the car it could work. If you want to do...

I'd have to recommend a motec, really expensive but the software is so easy use.
