    The Euro suspension set up is a little lower than ours is that correct.
    Does it give a improved handling over what we have and is it worth running compared with maybe some H&R Springs and Koni yellows ?
    Sorry, just trying to get a feel for it all for when I update mine.

    Thanks mate, Matt.

    I'm running the Euro R32 springs with 21mm neuspeed RSB and I am pretty happy with the ride be it driving social or anti-social

    Installed a Newsouth performance power gasket for the intake . Cheep n easy mod which sounds good in principle but really just another item to cheek off the list of bolt ons to ring every bit of powa out of the KO4

    driving home this avo after driving for 40 odd minutes, the alternator workshop warning flashed up, then a second later a screeching sound. it went away just as it came, as did the warning light... pressume the alternator belt got a bit lazy...

    Belt might be worn but tensioner is automatic so should really happen often at all. Is it wet over there today, a splash of water would make it slip?

    Cheers

    Was it raining or had you just hit a little bit of a puddle? The reason I ask is because when I first got my car, when it'd rain heavily and I got water splashed up into the belts I had a similar problem. All my under-engine guards have been smashed off by the previous owner though. Did you lose power steering (sudden heavy steering)?

    it was wet in syd today and was raining at the time so yeah i wasn't too concerned. more just surprised that it happened after the car had been on for 40 odd minutes, i don't recall a puddle and was going downhill. The warning message came on, then i turned a corner just as screeching started, then when i finished the corner light and screeching went off. didn't notice steering go heavy.
    how many timing, fan, alternator etc belts are there?
