    Need to replace my work phone really (so people can not bother to call that instead) might try to get used Lumia cheap and see what it's like properly rather than just playing

    what is the difference in emissions with or without a CAT

    2 reasons you'll have high CO readings, one being the lack of cat which will probably bump you up to 1-2%, and also a large tailpipe will suck in at idle(pulsing) so throw out the readings at the probe.

    Nokia Lumia 800 Windows Phone 7.5

    This phone has so much wasted potential, screen is awesome, but it just doesn't quite deliver the functionality it should. Also a Nokia fan for many many years, so I hoped this might be the one to turn them round. So close....

    Hours labour for change of springs?

    1.2 so actually harder than a 172/182 as you have to use spring compressors, but that's only 5 minutes per side more work. Hour for fitting, £20 to check alignment (basic, not lazer)

    Subframe removal Problems ! front nuts spinning on 2 front subframe bolts !

    the rack is held to the subframe by 4 bolts. 2 above and 2 below. you have to feed a socket on an extension into the hole in the subframe to get to 2 of them. Easiest if the rear of the subframe is lowered while you do this

    Headbolts, oiled or dry?

    light smear of copper grease on the threads, and similar under the head of the bolt. You don't need much, just enough to stop binding while you're torqing

    What Clutch to go for, track use and spirited driving around wales :)

    torque handling is the thing to watch. Even with big power the torque is often not greatly increased at peak. Standard or either Valeo, Sachs or LUK is all you need 99% of the time

    "Rattling" Sound on bumpy roads..

    Balljoints, ARB droplinks, shocks, springs Those are just the things to check (looking is the only way to tell) before anything else

    Subframe removal Problems ! front nuts spinning on 2 front subframe bolts !

    the nuts are 18mm, but there's a clip around the nut, which you have to destroy and pry out, or work around somehow

    Subframe removal Problems ! front nuts spinning on 2 front subframe bolts !

    sigh, do you REALLY think I wouldn't try that first? whole thing was rotten, thread was crossed and the wrong bolt used. It dropped down about 10mm then wouldn't move either way.

    He's clueless or telling lies, or maybe both. should have been done at 72k/5yrs. It's 100% a belt and not a chain

    Engine is out, Going to take to specialist for cambelt fitment, dephaser pulley,power

    Re: Engine is out, Going to take to specialist for cambelt fitment, dephaser pulley,p the aix kit will need fitting when it's back in the car though, it's a tight squeeze even with the AC pump removed

    Engine is out, Going to take to specialist for cambelt fitment, dephaser pulley,power

    Re: Engine is out, Going to take to specialist for cambelt fitment, dephaser pulley,p That's about an hour, plus the unloading and loading back up, so 1.5 hours labour all in would be fair. Don't be surprised if you find resistance to fitting parts you've supplied though, I wouldn't want to...

    What throttle bodies to go for ?

    I made it. I'd a very simple folded piece of steel with some holes drilled, a bit cut out around the underside of the coil, and bolted on
  23. D

    What throttle bodies to go for ?

    there's deeper filters available too. As you already have the flat backplate in place. This is mine with a flat backplate and 90mm trumpets With a dished backplate You could get 120's under there. What filter do you run?

    HTC confirm ICS upgrade rollout

    I like it so far, seems to have sharpened up the screen appearance somehow too. Spelling mistake/typo's in a few places which is a bit daft. Nice and quick, and same old sense UI just cleaned up a bit really. Desktop folders is a nice ICS feature
