A few for the VR6 Boyz

When I start my VR from cold it fires straight away, but if its warm then it can take quite a few turns before it fires?

What could be causing this? OBD1 and completely standard, 75K on clock.

Also coilovers fitted, seem to get a clunk every so often when I turn the wheel, sounds like its coing from passenger top mount. The guy did tell me about it when I bought the car, doesnt bother me too much. He reckoned that his mates MK3 did the same and its common?
