I will, can't stand ds2500 pads ;) never liked them, don't like fitting them, and they're over priced

they all do it from the join at the back of the cat. The angle of the flare on the exhaust is slightly wrong so it barely contacts. Not a problem that's exclusive to this system, but I've seen more of these than most, that are like it

a head swap isn't a bad idea, but i'd always change the stem seals while it's apart anyway, so not really saving any work

I'm sure I've answered this for you at least twice. You must not have seen the threads again after asking Front 60Nm Rear 40Nm

agree, I've used BGA, FAI and AE and never had an issue. Genuine are hardly exemplary quality!!

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco wheels look purple.....weird lol

Me :)

nothing wrong with that cat!!! could be very useful for someone with a pipe welded on

about £200 over the top

How you've done that is exactly how we/I have done a number of cars in the past. it's the very best you can make it IMO. That's exactly what we used to do with the high compression and big single throttle body cars going back 4 years or more. Always worked a treat. I'd look at a filter with an...

dephaser gone at 35k? seems unlikely to be honest. How often has the oil been changed?

I need to have a closer look, but for now try parking the other way round. Got a theory but need to test it

i'll do something when the sun's out.

about 1 in 100 are a problem before 100k. I advise against changing them as I've seen more new pumps cause issues than old ones. I think i've only ever had to change 6 from necessity, and half of those were not the original

nowhere. I buy from camskill etc and fit them nextdoor or go and see a mate in Cranfield

I've seen cars with different types on either side. What's your point?

the c**t I bought my 197 from has fitted one snow tyre. ONE!!!!!!

I did that once a few years back (ok 13). I was sold 4 Roadhogs for £250. Car sounded like a 1970s american police car at anything over 25mph. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeekkkkk round every corner

I see some of your point, but if you look at the internals of a newer ECU like the GEN90, it's a decade ahead of an omex 600. The amount of data that's transferred on connection is 3 times the size for a start!!!! the s40 software is dreadful. gives me a headache just looking at it, although...

no

normal 182 cup item, same as 172 cup

are you shitting me?

Find one that's had regular use and been well looked after rather than ultra low miles and been stored for months on end. They die if they're not used IME. Lovely 60k example of a Trophy in today, better than a lot of the 20k ones I've seen

I know it was around 300 at one point, although at Rick Woods so probably optomistic, but it did have a massive turbo added along it's life. GT35 rings a bell, which makes over 400 quite realistic.

U usually use a combination of pieces of steel and wet cloth shoved in the gap

it's part of the procedure to put a pin in the flywheel

this, every single time. There's no good reason to buy 185s

don't know, he charges by the mile so i'd have to give you his number and you give him postcode details. Don't remember if I ever asked before, but have you washed the engine at all? Flashing light is a "destructive misfire" which i've found 9 out of 10 times is water in the sparkplugs

i did get some chocolate, so i sat and ate that instead

LOL, one way of putting it. It's at Redish
