I went to Repco and bought a TFI pod filter to put on my 1998 N15 Plus. The filter has a 76mm hose on the end and fits fine onto the hose but there is a sensor that I can't connect and when it's not connected the engine runs like crap. So how do I go about getting this filter on. Thanks in...

I've purchased a race evolution coilover kit recently with the intention of putting them in my N13. I cranked the calipers and measured external strut diameter (45mm) and internal sleeve diameter (50mm) which means I need to use 2.5mm-3mm thick o-rings (included in the kit) Is there anything I...
Possibly stupid question (you lot should be used to these from me by now) I'm installing a tacho dash cluster in my N14.

Hi guys, I searched around to try find some pictures of both the boxes, but no luck. How is a quick and easy way to tell whether an N13 box is a LSD or non LSD? Will the spin one wheel and look at the other wheel trick work in FWD cars? if so I could just use that or won't it work? Thanks.
