Next question is, was that just a cambelt, or the cambelt kit?

Well that's more than likey a pulley. Have the belts been changed recently?

Well the screen wash smell will be your screen wash. You can smell the screen wash inside the car. The whistling will be either a gap in the windscreen wipers, like mine or the windscreen seal.

You don't even need the bolts for the brake disc as the wheel bolts, bolt into the hub. So you've done something else wrong!

Damages every seal it comes across.

Dot 4 will be fine. As will 5.1, don't use dot 5, as it's silicone based.

I believe he's like it in every single "for sale" thread. I'd personally sell him the car for £100 and watch, as he tries to deal with people asking for just the passenger side half of the rear bench, or 7 wheels nuts.

Brake pads don't hold the fluid in ;)

Brake fluid would not be gushing out if the pads fell out. My advice would be to get the brakes bled. Being the cheapest and simplest option, then if that doesn't solve it, you'll know the problem lies deeper.

This. Legally can't be put back on the road. One down from Cat A, where the car has to be crushed, and no part from it can be salvaged.

Go for superleggeras instead, not as spindley looking and lighter ;)

Bless!

15" on a mk3 will look daft. Keep them at 16". Have a look at the OZ range, or pro race. That's a good start.

Just been to Sainsburys. Bought tomorrows lunch, good times.

22mm

Depends wot size ud prefer. Either 195/45/16 or 205/45/16 would suit.

Anything more imaginative than Team 519?

Engine looks like something Fisher Price would sell

The pichers, just look at them!

The last person who tried to show me "how it handles" nearly killed me. I'll pass.

He was refering to ph2 172s and 182s. Back in your box.

None what so ever. The only difference you'll see depends on how worn the various suspension components are, on the individual cars. Track rod ends, ball joints etc.

Just adding my two penneth, having recently gone from 16"s to 15"s, I'm amazed I didn't do it sooner. The bigger profile gives loads less road noise, and a much less "fragile" feeling ride. Why in gods name any one would have 17s is beyond me, I'll stick with my cheap comfy tires :approve:

They're all the same car. Ph1 would probably drive better, being cable throttle

Check the inside of the doors

I'm not overly impressed with T1-Rs. So far they're a lot more slippery than my paradas in all road conditions. The only thing I'd say for them is they aren't phased by standing water, which the paradas were.

You're insured though? Insurance is there for a reason?

I want those brake ducts. Very nice though, how much do cup racers go for now roughly?

You'll have to give him a ring, not sure whether the price is the same anymore or not.

You have to pester Fred for months on end ;)
