poor earth

all she needs is the love of a good diy'er and a engine transplant

they are new parts never fitted (arms) got a bit of bits n bobs

excellent,a few more quid ticked off the cost of the donor

am i right in think the 172 cup and resr shocks and front arms will bolt straight on? and the arms push the wheel base slightly further forward,cup springs slightly stiffer but dampers identical? can someone confirm this as i has a cup donor that has 2 new arms new in box and the shocks...

oh i see its the centre you want to keep and replace the back box

planning on keeping a few spares i got with my cup like lower arms front struts are brand new and my non cup look about had it my question is,is there any difference between them and will they interchange

which windows did you weigh for the 5kg difference? i hope not 6 or i might be onto something lol

the supersport is the version of ktec stealth with a straight through centre section instead of a silencer

my cup had the supersport on and was quite nice,discreet enough to sneak in from night shift but sounds the part when you give it the beans

its not un arming thats the problem,id take the fuse out now and leave it over night and re try

tdc sensor failure will let it turn and turn its the uch (imobiliser body control module)

the 3 second cut out is what i get with that fuse inits a uch problem-its the alarm fuse you,ll notice the light next to gear stick no longer works with it out i believe its shorting and the uch going into spaz mode

mine did this-under bonnet fuse box-theres a red wire with a daft fuse in that looks out of place im pretty condifent that was the cause of my odd uch prob that a auto spark failed to spot might be a coincidence but i bought it with that problem and 18 month later it fires everytime if but for...

yeah it goes in just makes this noise sometime when selecting 2nd,weirdly ok accelerating in 2nd no noise at all

it was just a brainwave-once the aircons bypassed this week (assuming i can find some spacers suitable) im pretty much stumped for any gains without going cams or turbo route im in durham

whats the red light on dash doing? more than likely tdc sensor if the engins turns for more tjan 3 seconds

waste of time then,shame as the drivers door on mine will have to come apart at some point the drivers door only locks from the key and since il have the parts - i think too much lol

going to get my spanner and hammer out today since i have another few days off work the more i think about it the more i need satisfy my own curiosity lol 2nd gear on mine slots in lovely you can feel it engage/lock in if you like, on tje donor it doesnt it just works or slighly grinds...

sounds promising then,its not a complete dissaster if the box was doomed but a spare would be nice or to flog even to fund uk unleaded prices lol
