The thing is i'm not even sure how the rim got damaged, i drove over something on saturday nite that tore up the tire wall. But at TWT I found damage on the inside and outside lip of the rim, totally angaazed on that :? Wheel worx gona charge me R280 to straighten, hope it stays at that price cos the cost of the tyres were crazy.

Rather hold out for an EVO 1 or 2, far nicer. You guys think servicing is expensive on a SX try this thing... R4k for cambelts... :lol:

Best thing about SXs' are the availability of parts and mods, most of the time they come up when you don't have the money :lol:

Alo Alo Alo... time for some updating. Old news: car dyno'd - 187.2kW and 343Nm. Didn't modify anything since May :( but the car has been amazingly reliable :D . Found there was a crack in my wheel arch which I had sorted out at Autotech in Pinetown. Needed a strut brace so I went for a Cusco FSB which is still on its way.

Also, found a turbo that I would like to buy, but I need some help here in finding out the specs. Not sure on what size the exhaust housing is. The part number on the compressor is 491890-03120, also it has '9F' there and 2/3 in a circle. The guy thats selling it says its a TD04H 15G, but i'm angaazed about it. Not sure what this means, please help anyone that speaks fluent TD0...

yeah dude - looks a bit butchered???

i'd say stick with what you have till you can get a less "used" turbo???

over 180kw's is awesome, now you want more?
