to remove the bearing just run a weld round the inside or the bearing itself, let it cool for 1 to 2 min's and it should just knock out, only need a press to put bearing in and press hub into bearing.
Even if I was millionaire I wouldn't spend £85 quid on those especially when a powerflex mount fitted inside the original mount or even a new ebay mount is a better option at a fraction of the price. People saying money is no option and they are in strong finacial position.... lmao. All they...
Guess it comes down to personal preference and that's what so good about cars, everyone likes there own thing. That been said I know for about the same price I'd take a 2jz fd over a boosted clio any day of the week. I would much rather work with a rwd platform and what is highly regarded as one...
Will be a nice car but think of what you have to turn down to have it.... big power is best in rwd format. I'd be getting a rx7 fd with a shagged engine or a s13 silvia and putting a 2jz in for the price of the clio and 5k turbo kit plus the extra grand or 2 you will need in diffs suspensions...
sounds like bits of pressure plate bouncing around the bell housing. jack the front up with the car with it in neutral and turn the driveshafts by hand. If it sounds fucked you know its gearbox/clutch related. If it sounds ok you have probably spun a shell and its new engine time.
Never buy a car without test driving it imho. People get very good at driving a particular car and know how cover stuff up whilst driving and stop noises etc from happening. If they won't let you drive it walk away, simple as that really.
