Not sure but if it did fit I'd assume low compression as be a short piston no doubt..
I want higher compression

Omega General Help / Re: Y32se pistons
« on: 07 March 2018, 23:20:29 »
Nothing wrong with engine .. But I am rebuilding a spare motor to go in mine when I have time
..
Ported heads raised compression Piper cams... Ported manifolds... And was going to rebore and fit larger pistons more Cc..
I could get the largest std spec and just lightly hone the bkres I suppose ... As will be having pistons coated
Was just hoping could get like a 0.5mm oversize piston that's all

Omega General Help / Re: Keeping brake discs from going rusty
« on: 22 February 2018, 22:46:43 »
Buy some zinc wurth primer in aerosol and spray outer edge and bell of a new disc once decreased.. don't worry about getting paint on face.... once you drive a mile it will wear it off face and leave zinc coating in fins of discs and on bell .. won't rust then.. I always do I on my cars done it few weeks ago on my omega looks good and makes discs last better

As far as aware all 3.2 omega have G and J cams ideal for torque and power good balance...
Gonna grab a spare set and send away to be reground

I managed to swap one over eventually ...
Was trying but apart from grind them off re drilling and tapping weren't moving ...
I'd always rather fit new parts when something like this regardless of cost...
Could be there Unsoldering every joint and resolder get back on and still doesn't work ... Lots of effort and time wasted ...
If can be bough new I'd rather just buy new... Or if someone selling a known good pair swap to at once with brackets
Front cooked now as broke trying to remove of bracket
Rear not been touched
There's the bolts holding them to the subframes and screws holding them to the brackets.
If you can't undo the brackets, then you're clearly not trying...

Screws are seized can't remove bracket and what do you need to do to sensor to repair

Indeed apadpts nicely obviously to a point however I will be going standalone management/piggyback ecu at same time so can be mapped properly...
So that is no issue to me... However don't want it so high that even 99octane fuel isn't enough to make use of the compression haha
3.2 is lower comp than 3.0 or 2.5 so I would think fitting smaller cc head would raise it but not to level of that on a 3.0 .... Anyways shall see haha
I'll strip 2.6 heads down rebuild fit 3.2 exhaust valves reshape ports to match 3.2 manifolds and have chambers and valves coated

So basically dropping a 2.6 head on my 3.2 will do what I'm wanting raise compression .. Just make sure I fit 3.2 exhaust valves as sodium filled and 3.2 cams or 4xg...
Anyone any idea how much compression will be once 2.6 heads are fitted ... According to quide a 3.2 with 2.5 heads give around 10.8.1 which is good improvement overstock allowing more ignition when super unleaded being used

Omega General Help / Caters tuning guide question
« on: 05 February 2018, 07:27:32 »
Read through the whole caters tuning guide on internet other day and a lot of it is information from this site?
Main thing asking was it was stating putting 2.5v6 heads on 3.2 block matching the ports and using 3.2 head gaskets raises compression a bit allowing more power and linking with 4xg cams made quite a good cheap power hike
My question is what would sticking 2.6 heads onto a 3.2 do ? I'm guessing the chamber is smaller than a 3.2 so would still raise compression so why not use these instead... Or is it the 2.5 are smaller again allowing higher compression than a 2.6 head ......

warning message on for years(least 5)... lights work fine but do not move up and dow. when first turn on...
wiring appears to be ok no rips etc is possible wiring failed however sensor being common fault and its age.. id like to fit new front one then fit a new rear if warning message doesnt disappear that way know it brand new
anyone got part number

anyone got part code for headlight level sensor??
got low beam fld vision on display...
not using old ones try getting bracket off mine as was right git gonna need to drill the screws out etc.. rather just buy brand new and get another 14 years out of them haha
