Adrian, Could the TPS be mounted on the other side of the Throttle Body? This would make it work the way it used to - ie it will be turning the way it should be. Or could you mount your TB (from the RX) with the TPS on the spider manifold backwards so the butterfly opens the same as the TB on the sp...

Hey Julian, Both my front CV's are clicky, mainly whenever they're the inside wheel through a tight corner. They'll need replacing but i don't have the money or time so i just put up with it. Been doing this for almost 6 months. Hopefully they can hold out another 6 more. My left hand side also make...

Why is this? A smoother power curve through the revs or has it got better low down power/torque than a single turbo?

Its the air ducting down near your knees/shins... Its just another part of the climate control system for the drivers comfort. I've never used mine and i don't think it really works that well anyway...

From what I've seen most people have a manual "arming" switch and have the relay for auxilary lights triggered by the earthing of the high beam circuit . That way they only work on high beam and the arming or master switch gives you the option not to use them . Cheers A . Yeah, got that too. Its a ...

The tool box would make a good esky except for 2 things * its not insulated * its unreachable from the seats :) Agreed there. With a little work it could be insulated, but for a quick esky in the car enough ice could keep something cold for the weekend... I bought one of those cheap 12v cooler/heat...

I've thought about mounting an amp up there for the 6x9's... gotta find one that can a) do the required job and b) fit in that space. I'd probabily run some small CPU fans to get some air flowing over it... Oh, and adrian, the hill holder is an awesome "thing". When the car in on a backward incline ...

If you want to mount them in the ceiling you could get some spacers, though it would impact head room, rear visibility and look a wee goofy. The place i'd be putting these is just near the tailgate in the ceiling facing back into the cabin, if there's enough room above the head lining i'd be inclin...

6x9's in cargo area of L series

Has anyone done this? I've got two pioneer 6x9 4 ways to fit into my L. Ive got a set of 6 inch 3 ways in the front doors (going to be swapped with the rears) and a set of 6 inch 4 ways in the rear doors. Places i've been looking at for the 6x9's have been in the rear tail gate - problems here are w...

I'd say its earth switched but some manufactures go to extravagent lengths to make weird latching relay systems to save the cost of ONE relay . In my perfect world there would be two relays , one switching power up to the lights and another to switch the earths for high or low beam filiments . Not ...
