| Rockers and rear arches. Make sure the undercarriage isn't falling apart. | |

| Vvt pulley but those are yes enough to fix. With the 20v BT and ST they can sound like the tappets are going when the kms are high but its nothing to be concerned with, you can fix them but I wouldn't bother.
They are much quicker than the ae92 more power, better handling slightly heaver.
I've try and take a video of mine this weekend. | |
