Did you just tap into one of the rad hoses?
Checked the connection on the sensor all looks good as far as i can see, are there aftermarket options available with a sensor that replaces the standard one?
Just wondering do the digital clocks use a different temp sender than the analogue style clocks?
My ca died the day i bought it from it dropping its coolant and over heating but the temp gauge...
I'm not too fussed about upping the power right now I just want it running perfectly so no damage is done to the engine while i tidy up other areas of the car. And nah no fuel pump, those mods I...
I do plan on aiming for around 300 at some point once I have all the bits. Thought if I get a nistune now it's ready installed and can be set up exactly to how she is at the minute, then when I can...
Just because I didn't try what he said first doesn't mean I've totally ignored it. First he told me about the vac lines which I'm pretty sure most of them are in the right place.

My local garage isn't the same guys as who did the rebuild but this is why I came here for some more opinions.
Seems to be a lot better now anyway, will take a look at dv if i get aby probs, just...
Sorry dude all the other vac lines seem to be in their correct places. Its a quick thing to try hooking these vac lines up back to how they were as stock. If there's still no improvement ill look...
Blocked off hoses and definitely felt a bit healthier! Going to try reconnect them next see if it feels any better
thanks
The bangs really do sound like a fuelling problem, its happened before I've been cruising at like 1\8th throttle and its banged like fuel has built up.
Standard turbo and ecu
Yes the yellow line goes straight from housing to actuator, so running gate pressure.
Mod list is:
Slight overbore (0.5mm iirc) to fit Wiseco pistons
K1 rods
ARP head studs
Cometic HG
ACL...
It was detting when i got it back from the rebuild because i stupidly put shitty regular unleaded in, has improved loads since I've been using V power. My mechanic said its detting at high revs, I've...
Thanks for the reply
Yeah I've just checked those two standard lines have not been blocked off, would it be worth trying to plumb it up back as stock?
The guys said they swapped the lines to...
Well ill try make it a quick question anyway.
SO basically I've had my CA18DET rebuilt a while ago. The guys that rebuilt it swapped some lines round on the turbo so the line from the actuator...
Looks surprisingly good without the black line actually. I have a piece that fits over the rear bumper but it doesn't quite fit right so mulight get rid of it your rear end doesn't look too bad

Where did you get your hub and snap off mate? been looking around best I can find is from the us
Looks good mate love them in white. Need to get a thread for my k's when I get it back
It will be a garage mate, I'm waiting to have a chat with someone about it. Just I know garages like to add a little bit on top of prices. When I got the coolant leak fixed they charged me 15 quid...
I don't mind putting some cash down knowing my engine is going to be that little bit more bomb proof, and i guess the internals will be there if i decided i want to push it even further.
So I've found the standard bore size to be 83mm so thats what size pistons ill be looking to get, however I've just discovered theres a problem with half the piston brands out there needing...
Im 90% sure the engine is totally standard
Why is that? Ive seen posts from people deciding on what sizes they should get as if they haven't measured? I haven't got the time to be stripping my engine right now i was hoping to get the parts...
Priced things up from Apex and its pretty steep, any other suggestions?
Also any help on sizes of things?
Thanks
