IMO it's just a bit too complicated to work properly!! But like I said that's my opinion, just doesn't look reliable, good idea but I personaly I just would rather loose aircon as the current design is unbeatable, simple, effective!
It just seems soooo much to spend! Suppose I'm going to have to bite the bullet and pay £210 for the lot really!
Forgive me if this sounds stupid but what's the advantages of uprated mounts apart from there harder wearing!?
But theres only 2 on the k-tec site, it doesnt show you a lower gearbox mount. I think for £175 you just get upper gearbox mount and upper engine mount!
Im thinking of just buying:
OEM lower gearbox mount - £20.70
OEM upper gearbox mount - £17.25
KTR upper engine mount - £90.85 (as it looks...
Ah I see, so for a FULL mount kit its £175.95 (right at the bottom) will this replace ALL my engine and gearbox mounts, or is there more?

I want to replace them ALL even if theres just one gone - OCD :S
Out of interest how much more...
I think an enigine/gearbox mount has gone on my car. There is a knocking sound now and again and the gears are getting slightly stiff etc!
Im just wondering if you guys think its worth upgrading? I hear alot about issues with vibration etc with uprated mounts and i would rather have the...
God my cars a complete mess at the min, havnt had time to wash it for like 2 weeks with Xmas etc and work! Drop me a pm next time your down, we could arrange a little mini meet and il take you for a spin!
Lol! Love the suprise element, did u not notice the fmic when u were sat at the drive thru? Usually it's the first thing that most notice! I live in Leeds but work in Wakefield and was on my lunch break.
I took mine to a local engineers they fitted the worm drive from my old 172 gearbox and drilled a tapered hole for the cable! Works perfect! cost me about £80 from the engineers but at the end of the day its a better box - bolt on diff instead of the crappy circlip type!
I weighed this up when I got mine SC'd. I still went for it! Sooooo much fun!
Although I do sometimes look at focus RS mk1's and think "hmmmm did I do the right thing?"
I have just removed my airbag as I thought that the torx bolt in the middle of the steering wheel had come loose, when I eventually got it off I noticed that the play is in the actual steering rack that the wheel bolts onto! It moves about 2mm each way - not good! :(
Any suggestions?
HAHA! Round here people take the piss out of Corsa's constantly! There little boys cars and people who own them get masses of disrespect, even if it had a big powered engine in, you would still get the 'ITS A CORSA' comment because its true! Ive never heard nobody taking the piss out of clios...
Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172
So this is how the car sits with the standard springs re-fitted, ride is soooo much better but far less aggressive! Still handles well IMO. After Christmas my first purchases will be coilovers and a new exhaust. I got some new tyres fitted yesterday, I...
