As long as you don't want to refit the interior plastics, no worries.

PMSL. Bang on.

Seat right back, subs a blazin'?

I just phoned Ladbrooks for odds and the guy on the other end must work for BTM, JMS or Birchdown because he's in tears.

Brilliant. Do a search. Specialist locking tools required or clunky clunk, bang..

Yeah, also the upper timing cover is a doddle to remove.

For simplicity, I'd do a visual check on the auxbelt and the camshaft seals. If they don't look brand new, alarm bells should start ringing. I'm sure Fred or one of the specialists will have a better idea of what looks tired after a few years that should be changed etc....

How long ago was it claimed they did it?

Wrong. Let down by people who have no mechanical sympathy. Same as 106/Saxo boxes- they're not particularly weak they just get given hell! Also, some of the best cars on here imo are high milers. Nick's, Dave's, Fletch's are all awesome. I'd always pick a 100k miler over a 50k. My first Ph1...

Ollie can't possibly get his hair wet. If any of you bail because of potential bad weather, i'm going to write on your cars in paint pen. And i'm not talking about the glass, either. Ottershaw @ 7.30pm, or i'm taking it as free reign to do my worst while you sleep. x

Give James a ring. PM me if you need his number. Nice easy job to change.

I'm going on Sunday. Complimentary tickets, yo.

Lol. Did you pull it out? If not- it'll be part of your gearbox oil by now. lol

I had this on my first Ph1 after a heavy downshift. One of the bearings on the main gearset had made a bit for freedom. ):

Once the gearbox is off it's a doddle. Six bolts, all with easy access. Just need to make sure it goes back on lined up and the clutch is in the correct way.

There should be a rubber grommet in the actual hole. Then the plastic breather fits snug.

FLOL. A 'mate'?! Clare needs you to help her take her shoes off, you mean? :evil: P.s. I want pics of you, your mate and the van or you're talking s**t and are a big fag.

They're both out. Dave's got a gammy ankle and Nick's working late. 7.30pm..x

Ottershaw or Chertsey rec?

Ottershaw or Chertsey rec?

Bigman and I are in. If anyone uses the weather as an excuse- they're gayer than Christmas.

PMSL. Nick had all of those things on his cup before it was RS2'd. Graphs on here show the difference. Have you any experience driving/passengering in an ITB'd 1*2, RS2'd 1*2 or one with exhaust, remap and oh so special Maxogen? Just wondering..

On the back of the box? Just pull it and wiggle. Unless there's an 11mm bolt holding it in, but I have a feeling that's on 106's/Saxo's.. Lol. EDIT: man up. No bolt holding it in.

Peak power figures are just pub talk. How it drives and how the kit is in effect plug and play (bar mapping) is what makes it a decent product, imo.

Rear brakes don't have sliders, they have a piston that twists in and out. I reckon you need to either strip it down and look into it, or buy a second hand caliper..

I've got a million batteries, with a few I know are good.. We'll get it running. (;

What about a Milltek? I've got one in the for sale section. (;

You ideally want everything off so you can jack the engine up or down freely.. Draining the coolant is easy, just re-use the stuff that comes out!
