That's what i work on. although i like to do the cambelt a little earlier if possible

it wont be the washer/springs/bolts at fault, the gasket will be worn out

3 years ;)

strongly agree with that. having some grunt has got me out of trouble a few times

you've no idea at all of the capability ;) It's also transferable to any car with a different loom, same as anything else

not my place to say really, and i dont want to claim things that people might not see due to different driving styles, but significantly better than the numbers stated above

shouldn't matter a f**k, it's been apart since they had it and worked on by someone else

Aux belt should have been replaced again at the time the cambelt was done so the earlier aux belt change is insignificant. No idea what will have caused it without actually seeing the car, but i have seen it happen before. Likely the tensioner is seized so the belt became slack and wandered...

doesn't have to be. We worked out what k-tecs SC car was doing the other day and it's really quite acceptable

right about the different garages doing different quality jobs, but they still use substandard materials. I worked for them for a short period (Top Gear) and walked out as the whole thing was a joke. EVERY afternoon is assigned for warranty work FFS

to do what?

only know of 2 that have had cams fitted, both are running Catcams. We're hoping to try some Colombo & Bariani cams in a 197/200 soon, but need to get the mk2 variant available first

I'm really pleased with my Janspeed. only a mug would even ask powerflow for a quote

oil pressure operates it, spring closes it when oil pressure is blocked by solenoid. spring goes sloppy, pulley rattles. be fine until you get the belt done not exactly what i said, just been informed by customers that their engine is quieter after i've washed out the VVT pulley properly...

megane ECU is coded, so the immobiliser is almost certainly your problem

LOL, and i got called slow when i quoted 5.5-6 hours on here. f**king HATEFUL job, I'd rather do a skyline without ramps or a trans jack than a 172

lol, your car's such a spooner xx

like most oils and greases really. Blue nitrile gloves FTW, none of this Latex nonsense

did an OK job of getting a lot of smoke and ash smell out

gonna be orgainsing one at K-tec in the near future

I just went back and checked, and that's 25% !!!!!!!! FLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

38 bhp losses???? GTF

Molybdenum Grease is near as dammit ideal. You can buy pots of CV grease from Motor factors

145-150 ish. Depends on the dyno though, single roller give a higher wheel figure but measure lower losses, twin roller have more drag so give a lower wheels figure but more measured losses

yet ;)

it's probably (like most) still on the original thermostat so never gets upto ideal running temp anyway

so.......sleepy.......zzzzzzzz

could well be worn discs, but there's a couple of bushes on those IIRC that can cause some braking wobble. Can't remember if the clutch is adjustable on those or not

not actually sure, lol. 200sx uses BCPR6ES, 7 is a grade colder for raised boost. BCR8ES is standard cossie. I use BCPR6ES in my F7R

ANY car parts shop. they're very common fitment. I've used them in 300+bhp turbo'd cars for years and years, and in a lot of clios
