Personally I don't rate ITG, their triple foam construction makes them very think and less free flowing than other filters, I prefer Pipercoss I had one as a panel filter in my standard box and have one in my V6 Espase airbox.
If you wanted a standard airbox i'm sure someone would be willing to do a straight swap for your K-Tec/Fatty style kit, they're very popular on here and people are always looking for cheap mods that give gains, i'm sure someone with standard boxes looking to upgrade would jump at the chance of a...
I can't see why anyone gives a sh*t what people think of their car, I just tell people I have an old 2.0L Clio when they ask, no one's going to be impressed by a Clio regardless of how good it is so I don't bother trying to explain, 'but it's a fast one and handles really well so it's no just...
I know what you mean, i've had so many good memories in my car, it's been very reliable on the whole and has mods i'm happy with so I wouldn't want to get rid of it either, plus if the engine blew up i've got a whole forum of mates that would help me drop in a replacement so i'd only really have...
I'd say if the cost of dropping another engine in is the same or more than buying another 1*2, it might just be worth cutting your losses and getting another car, at least you can get a few hundred quid back selling the Cup, even with a buggered engine.

You can use 0W/40, 5W/40 & 10W/40, mixing any of those will be fine,
If for example you've got some 5W30 then the viscosity will be different which isn't a good idea.
What issue, because that's the battery bracket that stops it from moving about.
Is it the fact you can't get to it because the other bolt's in the way?
Or lack of, but there is something addictive about a raw little car that feels like it's going to drive itself apart, Ron will come back too, just a matter of time.
Tbh if something catastrophic happened to the dog kennel i'd probably get a sub £1000 T5 estate, plenty of room for the dog and an engine you can get power from without spending a fortune, plus I could park it anywhere and not give a f*ck if it got keyed or dented.
