Waste of time on a car of that weight, imo. Brembo HC's. Braided lines. Decent fluid. DS2500's for road, Carbon Lorraines for track!

PMSL. I lol'd at Rear bumper looks like it's been used for bumping. Front bumper looks like it's been used for bumping.

Put pics up of your cage first.

PMSL. The last one I did, we got through a few each, yep! No worries mate. I'll PM you my number in a minute. Text me if you get stuck.

My God, that interior is a crazy change. You've got a talent there, mate.

Hmm.. Not really. Just make sure the car's up as high as possible, because you need plenty of room to come out underneath. Make sure you drain gearbox oil before you remove driveshafts (simple for some, lol) Take the bumper off. Some say not to bother, but it only takes five minutes, and it...

It’s not as difficult as people say, and I’ve done a couple. Pretty much, lower the subframe and drop it out the bottom. It’s a pretty tight fit, though! More hassle than it’s worth to take it out the top. ie. Engine out.

Locked- £40-50-ish unlocked £150-ish. I'd say

As above. Washers only.

PMSL. It'll be in a cube by now, mate. ): I did try and take it off, but it's a f**king nightmare. I'll make it up to you, i pwomise.

Ah, piss! It got thrown away in the car, I think. ): Got another one, but it's a bit worn..

*Both breath a sigh of relief.* Snett FTW.

Busted. ):

Avoid like the f**king plague.

I <3 high milers. My daily's on 148k. Most reliable car I've ever owned!

Love Rob's ****.

Awesome! Chuffed you got it running mate.

£50's worth of fuel. Worth doing, imo. There's 3/4 of a tank in the Ph1 i'm breaking. that's coming out!

To remove driveshafts, you won't need to worry about circlips at all. 30mm socket for the driveshaft/hub retaining nut on both sides. On N/S, three (either 10/13mm) bolts holding the seal to the box. Drivers side will just pull out. Make sure you drain the box oil before you remove nearside...

I always go 75lbs/ft or approx 105-100NM.

Get down to Euro Car Parts, and supply the clutch to the garage! You're only looking at £85 for a Sachs one, or approx £105 for a Valeo OE one. It literally will take them five minutes to swap it, so shouldn't charge any extra labour! Fred or JMS. Get them to look at it before you pay...

Luke, Ryan? Dave's away for a couple of weeks, so we need someone else at CB!

Have you got parkinson's, like?

PMSL. Would the key/door locks/decoder ring from the 172 help? I think I've still got 'em somewhere..

Well, they're a slightly smaller profile, so in theory, you will get bigger arch gaps. The benefits, are the sidewalls tend not to be so flexy, and they're cheap as chips!

Glad to see my old lump's going into something worthwhile! This is going to be awesome!

Me too.

Would be fine. I'd replace all four, though.

HOF0206 maybe from Halfords? Or 204? Rings a bell for some reason.

Yep. That comes with mani, alternator, etc. only 85k, too!
