We're hoping to be at CSS by 10 mate.

A combination of the fact that I was in work but also after about 9 I can't see F' all and have no outdoor lighting. Hopefully I can get a couple hours tonight and then do the rest Friday. The cup will definitely be there...possibly :s

Well I got the power steering pipe from Fred today. Now need to but the car back together on Friday. Hopefully can get it all done in time, not making promises though I'm afraid guys.

Haha love it hodgkins. Can't wait to see in your boot lol

Yeah Fred will hopefully be getting one to me today as I have no way of getting to him to get it. Looks like a right pita to change. Plus I then have a fair few bolts I forgot what they're for so will be a lot of head scratching lol.

1. Don 2. Madgit (Adam) 3. Martin182 4. Danevo 5. Addicted 6. alexr19 7. Cswalmsley 8. Mharvey (Currently walking) + bringing 'FinalMaxim' so he'll be getting a piggy back. Must sort car.

Agreed. I'll get the details up tonight (if Don hasn't beat me too it) as soon as I'm home

I'd actually be quite happy to do so Daniel as I have to go exactly that way anyway. As posted above my cars currently out of action but I have almost a week, hopefully be sorted by Wednesday so if there's no other offers I should be able to.

Mate, all went well, clutch in, box in, subframe bolted up, started doing a few niggly things and then there was a drip of red landed on me...power steering fluid, I've somehow made a small nick in one of the metal pipes so that's screwed. So all progress has halted, subframe back off etc :( I...

Should be, it should have been an easy job getting the old one out too but when you have limited tools etc something always goes wrong lol. I also as I said have too many spare nuts and bolts :(

Cheers for posting this Don. It's a heavy beast when doing it with caveman tools and on the driveway so any help would me appreciated plus I have sort of got a few bolts and nuts I forgot to mark up that I am now unsure where they go.

Box is out so it's on it's way to being fixed. Getting a couple of parts from Ad tomorrow. Only trouble I'm going to have is in fitting the new box, they're pretty heavy at the best of times but I'm trying to do it with the front of the car raised on axle stands and the use of a crap trolley...

Don't worry spoke to Don and we're going to sort it now. I'm having a few pretty major transport issues so am still trying to sort those but fear not Convoy to Gaydon is being arranged. It'll be brilliant as any West Mids convoy is, even the Welsh members know it ;)

TomC on here if you're quick is selling his for £2k as its what the garage have offered him trade in. It is a genuine sale even though he hasn't owned it long, just ask him to explain if interested. He paid a lot more than what he's asking for only a short while ago as it was in such good...

Yeah I used raceglaze. easy to use and great results

Cheers Martin I'll get onto it and probably take the box out tomorrow, or give it a go anyway haha. As above located in Wolverhampton.

Looks great, love the matte front bumper and blade. Out of curiosity though why didn't you remove the wheels, surely quicker and easier? Also I presume the finsih isn't as good on the insides especially at the top.

Wow, that's great service, how all sellers should operate. In fact it's beyond what is expected of any seller. Wish I'd bought my RS from you now haha.

Oh my.. I think you may be right with the thread title there. For a start it has two K-Tec induction kits... On a serious note though that car (if I had a lot more money) Is one that would do everything I could possibly want from scare myself silly to help move a new fridge lol.

Fair play Sam that looks absolutely brilliant. Absolutely love these and will definitely be considered for my next car (whenever that may be).

Hi again Steve. Yeah I did consider that box in the classifieds but firstly it's not a cup box so believe I can't use the speedo sensor (as cub doesn't have abs sensors) also I'm not sure that'll be much cheaper than sending mine off for refurb and the new box could potentially have a diff on...

+1 WOW a car show without rain :)

Any other thoughts. Thanks

Thank you for the input steve. That's what I thought. It would creep for about 5cm and then catch, like I said the AA bloke forced it to move and he said was only a driveshaft. I'm just trying to get some solid aswers (which is difficult not seeing the car I know) but don't want to pay a...

Hi. Looking for a bit of advice. The car is a 172 cup. Firstly my girlfriend crashed my car a couple of days ago, all seems structurally sound so I'm 99% sure that it hasn't contributed but thought the full story would be best, it has only damaged the drivers side light, bumper and bonnet...

+1 but I think I could manage the wheels and the dissappointment of putting it on the rollers to find 'only' 510bhp, none of it would matter because of the noise they make :o

Would have thought slam panel etc were different too and mounting points for the headlights?

Thought that was my plate then for a second :s (the one on the car) only the last letter's different and it's the same size number plate lol

Cheers martin I will give them a call.

Hi guys and girls. Well I lent my girlfriend my car the other day. On day 1 the exhaust mounts randomly went which seemed like a bad omen and now today (day 2) she's been involved in an accident, in all fairness it sounds like she was unable to do much. The most important thing is she's fine...
