What wheels are on it? I thought iceberg cups were all 52 plates also? No cups came with Xenons or leathers as standard.

E12 iirc. That's only from memory though.

^ Especially from an unknown poster who doesn't exactly seem forthcoming with information, specs etc.

Lol at the double fail, Colshe!

James Martin is a legend. Spoke to him a while ago while he was in at work.

I'm glad I didn't attempt that.

106/306 diesel. No contest for a cheap hack.

Exactly the reason I never run an undertray. Just hides the leaks

Why are you lifting the engine anywhere? Just support it from the underside with a jack and leave it in the bay

I don't at the minute. Will have a 172 cup box in known working good condition going spare in a few weeks...

I'm about 45 mins from Reading and will take it out and replace it for beer money. Will change the clutch and box oil for no extra labour if required.

No crane required, just jack on the sump. You can get Wd40 to the front ones a doddle, and to the rears with a bit of fiddling. Get underneath and have a look and it'll all be apparent

I always move the box off, get my hand in and take the clutch plate off. Gives about an extra 2" room to wiggle it up. Helps to have the engine on a jack also. Move it up or down to suit the room you need. Also, last time, i didn't even bother taking the exhaust mani off.

It's entirely possible to take out the top. Without touching the subframe at all.

Fred loves the bottom. Ooooeerrrr. Basically, it's when the subnframe mounting bolts (the ones that bolt it to the car) start spinning, you always get at least one clip snap. With the fronts, it's not too tricky to fix. The rears are a cnut.

As above. Clutch comes with an alignment tool. I much prefer taking boxes out the top TBH. Subframe is a headache for me because the clips that hold the nut into the subframe mounting always snaps. Bit more fiddly but with the main coolant hose etc all out of the way it's do-able. Means you...

One bolt. One nut. Per side. Doddle

Flol at a map changing the timing. Nope, Tony was right. He backed off as the weather is shite and you're pushing up into silly speeds.

And he has a beard. That's settled then.

Nick is definitely Vince. Or Hector. What's wrong with the 328? I want it for my daily!

Mongtastic.

Door cards are a doddle to swap, I've never had a single clip break on a Clio...

6's FTFW.

Flol!

Search for E46 330 Golf tee mod. ;)

Amazing fun, that thing. You're just an ESP/Traction control loving Jessie. xx

I must have spent about 4 hours this weekend dicking about in my 106. Skiing behind it ftw.

We'd better stay away from any schools, colleges or other areas with built up numbers of females though. 2x Drop top BMW's with dreamboat driverz. Last time that happened: Dripping.

Flol. I raised the question in a whatsapp convo this morning and nobody could really decide. Good question though. Well done.

I'm in!
