So I took some readings off the scan tool, unsure if this helps or not, I read somewhere about the timing adjust shouldn't be anymore than 9deg at idle, however I am not quite sure as it jumps around a bit, goes from 5 to about 15 at some stages all at idle no load no ac on
Also as you can see my intake air temp is still erroring, fixing the pcv valve pipe made no difference

Well it appears as though its just the start of the bad luck with this car.
I got a 5.2k quote for all the issues it has, which he showed me in person all the damaged/worn parts.
So I jumped onto ECS tuning and went to work.
I would like to know if these parts are compatible with my Bora.

My understanding is the MKIV R32 and Bora 4mo share the same suspension setup.
SuperPro website listed the rear bushings are the same part # for both vehicles. The front's, same situation again although these ones are ECS brand the OEM MFG# they replace are the same on both vehicles also.
I've read good things about the ECS dog bone mount, the only issue that appeared to be common was longevity.
My previous Bora had a set of SoloWerks coilovers on it (link below) and the car felt amazing, firm but comfortable. HOWEVER, I didn't have the car long enough to really test them out + the previous owner had done a complete suspension refresh, (adjustable rear control arms), new bushes everywhere etc.... How'd they go alone, without all the other additional mods I couldn't answer that... Read good reviews though
