i quite like the appeal of them as an unusual sight on the road, just watch the drivetrain doesnt respond well to power increases and if you fit bigger alloys with wider profile tyres i hear the extra weight and grip and cause issues.
if your stripes are down the centre of the car it balances out the extra power, if you put your stripes more to the left you get more power to the left wheel. simples.
That's a lot of oil, if you do want to try the bolts I used some wynns black gasket about £20 just do one at a time where it looks to be leaking from clean them up and some under the head of the bolt.
To be honest though I would get it to a specialist as sounds like quite a bit of oil loss and...
Yes, one at a time in the area the oil pools. Bolt out, a thin bead of gasket under the head of the bolt where the thread goes into the bolt head and put it back In the head. Quite a few threads in the past.
May as well get rid, you don't need it and its not there to improve throttle response/power etc so no harm in throremoving it. It's not going to make any difference to you drive experience though.
Few threads on it, remove inlet manifold and remove each bolt which holds the rocker cover on and put some gasket round they'll of the bolt and then put it back in. Do it with the few bolts u think may have caused it to leak. One will be allowing oil up.didmine few month back,took an hour and...
If the price is right it could be a good but, assume he means aux belt tensioner as often people save money and only do half a job and don't change these. Birchdown or btm are just two of the well known specialists in your area. If it ticks loudly may need dephaser as well. £500ish gets all the...

some decent pads and fluid if your going on track, sorted.
easy options are to either re insert your cat remember a sports cat runs at 200 cells and will take the edge off the noise, or you could look at some soundproofing some dynomat under the carpets etc should help.
you could go chav and try some carpet underlay
Under the bit the ht leads go into (coil pack) on the right hand side will be a small metal nipple it slips onto that. Sound like you put it back on the right thing,
htc hd7 is massive, its bigger than the desire hd and iphones from what i remember. i wouldnt upgrade to one of them think been out a few months now.
the desire s is prob a better bet out of the two you mention.
Battery lasts much longer now I turned my mobile internet off. It was always logged onto 3g so with Bluetooth, wifi and mobile internet all off it lasts a while now and just create a shortcut to the settings page.
I park out of the way and spent a chunk of the time sunbathing far side where a few riders fell off. Picnic northern style, scotch egg and kit kat.
Riad Google UK trackdays its best to check each website as they only list there own, some list a few other companies as well but worth checking...
