Ok so that's that bit cleared up! :wink:
Right, so you have removed the acoustic valve, and you've blocked up the pipe that goes from the inlet down to the acoustic valve?
Carbon cannister is drivers side, acoustic valve is passengers side.
Without sounding like a t**t, im unsure what you have done.
I very much doubt its down to the fatty bend.
The solid engine mounts will cause a little cabin vibration. I dont find them too harsh but its down to personal preference.
You can buy powerflex bushes to go into the original mount (Engine side) or you can replace them with a Kangoo one which is the same fitment but 1/2 the price because it...
Here you go buddy.

He does loads of different ones too, including a lot of star wars stuff, if your a fan of that.

I can't remember, does yours run spacers? Mine are ET38, but unsure if the...
Thanks Dan.
I'm already thinking of removing the sunstrip! Will give it a few more days first but as much as I like the look from the outside, I don't think it's me...
Thank you very much for the comments guys! Its nice to know you guys like it :smile:
Dont be fooled, this is no minter. Infact its had paint work done, has chips and scuffs all over, but im not too bothered. Im really enjoying this car for what it is. Its on 111k, 12yrs old. Needs a bit of work...
They are great mate and having them next to the Gaz's was good to compere the 2.
Adjusters definitely go at the top. If you look the writing is the correct way up. If the adjusters went at the bottom then the writing would be upside down as the spring can only fit in the adjusters one way! ;)...
My 68mm rear studs finally turned up so i took the car to work to fit them. A few days before Emily took the car to work as i took hers for an MOT. When i came home she told me she pulled the handbrake up too far and heard something snap. Upon inspection, its the drivers side handbrake cable...
While i was at work i found some rubber that would be perfect to replace my broke standard one, plus i could lengthen it like the ph1's.
Then i make a purchase....
Apparently they had done 1000 miles. Unsure on that as they all say that but they haven't done much more and are...
I ordered some 68mm studs as i was unhappy with how far the 75mm studs poked up. New ones turned up but turned out they sent out 90mm!
So a phone call to them and they sent out the correct ones. These then got lost in the post, so another phone call and i finally got the correct ones through...
Hwy buddy! Glad to see you still got it and that its treating you well. Ive always said that the BG was a good one to own mechanically. Great new on the house purchase too! :)
Sorry, what i meant was more than standard. I think ill leave it for the time being.
I dont know. But mine is just...
Wow! This is going to be one fantastic project to follow. I love stuff like this.
Your fabrication skill are brilliant!
Plus, who hasn't got a soft spot for a 205?! Even if there is only 2% left of one on this!
Ah yeah, I read the tag but forgot to reply.
I Irchester it's a 172 engine with boost in a 182 shell. I don't think it's an overly quick one either.
Bit odd that he's got the car up for sale but selling bits off it!
