Already has headers.

From the bentleys the 88+ cars have a different starter motor circuit setup - whether thats is causing the problem who knows.

ahhh, but it is a good noise - mine sounds awesome now with the reconditioned box and the synth fluid, has a nice whine to it, couple that with the nice diff whine I now have since changing that to synth fluid, and my exhaust that sounds more and more CSL rattley every day, and my car sounds quite nice (although I realise that with my exhaust it is the beginning of the end for it).

When switching from mineral to synthetic did you flush the mineral oil out first or just drain it and bang in the synth???

seriously keep on topic......i actually need help! haha gonna see what i can do this arvo....thoughts suggestions welcomed!

[Grant 4]

If you are not having any joy by Friday, ring Mosens or ED Euro and see if they have a pre-facelift starter motor.

We can go though Hamiton and pick one up on the way to Taupo.

It may be worth a last ditch try.
