Ironically, I don't like the looks but I bought mine since I had blown through 3 stock units in 18 months. I wanted something I could send back if the problem continues.

As for performance: nada.

Gotta get some bumpers and 16 alloys.
Makes me miss mine. It was the same color. Easy to keep clean.

If its a wierd little whining noise, it won't. I'm still puzzled.

I've already replaced my power steering pump with one from a 960, inspected everything when I had the belt off too. If this doesn't fix it then I might start clubbing baby seals.


Triple checked my alternator and AC compressor as well, they're not making the noise. Its coming from the top of the accessory system, so it has to be either the PS pump or the tensioner. I really hope I'm don't have to replace the pump again.... -_-

I hear this whine whirlling noise. Replaced tensionor and pully. Still have the noise.
I was under the car the other day and heard it... almost sounded like it was coming from the compressor

There's a vibration in the accessory system, and it can be felt very well on the PS pump. The noise sounds like bad bearings but I just can't pinpoint it for the life of me. Ever since I grenaded my last motor and put this one in, its had a loud annoying whirling/spinning noise coming from the accessory system....
