It means casting.

I think we need a video of this thing being given a boot full.

No special nuts and bolts, just ones that are the correct size for the holes.

The 1.2 is compatible with a 1.8, as is the 3.0, just make sure you forged the water pump and reinforce the grumble joints.

That's the Alpha James Bond nicked in Octopussy.

That's assuming it's an F4R, we still have no clue what kind of car it is.

You haven't mentioned what car it is? Because 172/182's generally don't blow head gaskets.

Ahh, i've only ever seen them as race cars.

What the hell is it?

HOLY F*CK!!!! What an engine bay!

No you're only changing like for like, same as any other part that breaks or wears out.

Rapid contraction of hot metal causes stress fractures, if not massive cracks, best thing to do is just leave the bonnet up and let it cool down on it''s own. You may be lucky and got away with it, but i'll be very surprised.

Well that'll be scrap then. That's the absolute worst thing you can do to a hot engine.

So he put cold water in the coolant bottle? Did he throw any over the engine or not?

Depends which is cheaper tbh, if it wasn't broke before throwing cold water on it will have finished it off. So it's been nicked?

LOL, they also cracked their block.

He threw cold water on a hot engine!? I know someone that cracked their bloke doing that to an over heating engine.

Everything i've removed from my car was either for upgrading mods, or removing the rear interior to dog proof the back, a happy coincidence is it's saves a fair bit of weight. The only extra bit i've got is a spare starter motor.

Ha mental!

That would certainly explain why a Dakota flew over the park where I walk the dog this morning, probably on it's way to this thing after refuelling at Bagington.

Sh*t loads of them in here with pictures. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?316226-Cool-Mods-For-Skint-People&highlight=cheap+mods+for+skint+people

Letting some of those cars rot is like flushing thousands of pounds down the toilet.

I'm not surprised, that's like asking a junkie if they'd like some of your Heroin.

Tbh mate I doubt the bloke's even on here anymore seeing as the thread's from 2011 and he hasn't been on here since the 12th of Feb 2012.

Proper! Wheels suck balls though.

Maybe I should declare that empty can of coke i've left in the car, as i'm pretty sure they didn't come with one from the factory.

All the decent cars I see are when i'm driving about so I can't take photos of them, I was behind an XJS V12 yesterday.

Support the sump with a jack, make sure you put a block of wood inbetween the two though so you don't dent or damage the sump, then change the drivers side one first, you'll need a deep socket as the thread's quite long. Once that's all done, support the gearbox in the same way with some wood...

No they're all made of rubber.

What are these like in this heat Raz, are all up the side of your car like the RS2's were?
