know how u feel mate, my car was up on axle stands when i was fitting my engine, and some little b*****d decided to go up both sides of the car (bearing in mind this is on a private rear access road, and my car is on the driveway) We have CCTV up there aswell, and its sickening seeing him do...

youll have to fiddle about with jacking the hub/arm up and down a bit, so that the splines line up properly on the bar, but it should go in without too much trouble. im not sure on the difference, thats just what ive been told in the past.

take it elsewhere, and get another MOT garage to test it. But before doing so, make sure you go for a thrash to warm the car and oil up properly. high lambda is usually caused by the mixture being either too lean (i doubt) or the exhaust has a hole in it, or clamps arent done up tight...

oh dear... the air filter is ontop of the engine on the 1.4 so drilling it anywhere will cause it to suck in warm air, and youll lose power.

do it... whether its for looks, or you want to improve the headlights at night. so much better than the standard ones that are seriously pants at night.

im running my mk1 on an apex suspension kit (40mm drop) on willy wheels, with 195/50 tyres. totally fine :)

ouch mate, sorry to hear that. your car just doesnt want to goto a different owner does it :(

i did this for a mate in his car... had to use a proper automotive relay thou, as its quite high current. just a simple split charge system http://www.steven-petersen.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/split charge.jpg">

christ i thought my bodyshop took the piss when it took them 3 months to do my car (1 month of that was my fault as i lost my job, didnt have the cash to pay them) To spend that amount of money, and for them to take this long to do that sortof work is a pisstake. i wouldve told them to...

the seats werent designed to hold you in, as you can tell, theyre just the cheap type of seats that you sit on. youd be better off getting the seats out of an rsi/16v etc as theyre more supportive

nobody wants to see your shopping list on your car lol. i personally think theyre ghey. even gheyer if you have stickers like HKS, Greddy etc on a non turbo car

id say so... sounds like youve cooked em nicely lol [Edited by Mole on 7/25/2005 11:05:19 PM] Not that ive ever seen blue brake discs, but ive seen metal thats been heated up too much which has turned a blue colour

looks like black smoke coming out of your exhaust when u revved it hard

http://www.steven-petersen.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/r19mount.jpg Thats all you need, should stop alot of engine movement :) Also do the dogbone mount trick... knock the rubber out of the mount, and turn it 90 degrees to what it was, certainly stiffens it up :)

It fits fine, Nick Read had one fitted to his valver turbo. Ill be fitting one to my turbo soon aswell :)

same engine codes throughout the phases, the thing that dropped the bhp was the PAS pump

ouch, couldve saved alot of money there. New suspension kits are only around the 200 mark, calipers shouldve been fine but if not then theres plenty of people with old 1.2/1.4 calipers etc (i have a set as i upgraded to the 16v setup) pads are cheap enough, and easy to fit. Still, i wont...

will it be coming to medway? looks mint mate, if it is coming to the area ill make sure the owner looks after it well :)

i dont think youll ever find a HU that will control the iRiver as such, but you can get alot of HUs that have an aux in, that way you just run a 3.5mm stereo jack from the iRiver to the 2 photo plugs on the back of the HU.

i do believe thats what a porter cable is essentially, just depends on what pads etc you use.

lol :D well if it doesnt last long enough, ill mod it so i can use a step down transformer and just use it like that... still for 30 quid, dont think you can really go wrong... but as said, you prob get what u pay for. I think this is the same one as the Megs cordless, but not half as...

the one in Motor-World is random orbital... im thinking of getting one, and seeing what its like... http://www.motor-world.co.uk/show_prod.php?prod_id=4120http://www.motor-world.co.uk/show_prod.php?prod_id=4120

saw you again today mate :) about 4:30pm

just means that the policy will last 10 months, but youll get 1 years NCB instead... faster way of clocking up some NCB :)

congrats... but i think your f**king mad to be paying that much for insurance

rears need modifying, fronts you need to use the clio frames.

it wouldnt have taken a photo of you going towards it, as the flash can startle you and could cause an accident... only usually happens when a gatso is out of film

Think it was wednesday i saw you... just by where they are now building the new police station, by the link road... i was on my new form of transport... petrol goped :D
