    My new Parada after 1 trackday.

    [/IMG] For the first laps of Woodbridge on a wet greasy track I told by the marshals that this was not a place for testing my drift skills, new tyres and a wet surface do not go together. As the track dried out an hour later and the new tyres scrubbed in, grip vastly improved, they felt like...

    New tyres

    Just had a set of 4 Paradas fitted on my 15" track wheels as my old Advans were trashed. I hear the Paradas are good grip in the dry but resort to Ditchfinders in the wet! True? £210 was the fitted price, can't afford Advans any more.

    Wheel Alignment done at last!

    Since buying the car I have not had this done, the car seemed to drive and pull up straight. I have since fitted new springs and camber bolts and thought it time for alignment. The initial check showed the front toe in at 19deg. WTF! Strange it had no adverse effects. Well after an hour...

    Trip Computer

    Having recently found how it works, the average MPG reading always shows 32.x mpg to 33.x mpg readings even on a trackday the MPG figures show these figures so only varying by about 1 to 2MPG. Why? Miles to the pump works ok and average speed seems to be ok as well.

    Solenoid for the phase shifter.

    I've removed the the solenoid to check that it is working ok. When I apply 12volts to the terminals the solenoid activates but the piston inside the valve only moves about 2-3mm. Doesn't seem enough movement to me Should the piston move more than this?

    Dephaser Pulley?

    To me this looks like an inlet pulley stuck on the end off the camshaft, except the centre is made of some kind of plastic. Is there some sort of mechanism or clutch inside that varies the VVT. Or maybe I'm looking at the wrong pulley.
