I know that, i was quoting the common average garage price...

seriously mate. Right, price for a cambelt kit(belt and tensioner) trade £61.06+vat retail 86.00+vat book time for a cambelt on an rsi sorry,2.6hrs. so @ £35ph its £90ish

£300 to replace a belt and tensioner?!? f**k me. its about an hr and a half tops so about £60-70, plus the belt kit is £100 tops!

How new is the exhaust? still got a cat on there? by what your describing it sounds like the exhaust is blocked(hissing) If a bearing is getting ready to let go i'd change it NOW! as it it lets go it'll take the belt with it and destroy the top end.

Its the knock sensor.

as above, theres no easy way of doing what you said.

most cars were 40-50bhp down and mases of torque down. those were evos too. my mates almera was about 30lb/ft down on torque. and its only 90 standard!

LOL did you see what happened on the sw-pc day?

Also, a 20m skid mark is f**k all really.

Erm gow can you be certain its him?

Nah Ive built the 172 engined mk1!

no, a 1.4 spi throttle body from a 1.4 clio.

nothing really. put a 1.4 t/b on to it.

loose weight.

^ thats the very rare possibility on them my speedo still does it, im now on my 5th box lol

the okey kokey?

DO NOT try porting the head. There is so little material to work with where you need to work!

Good call son! i'd forgotten about tg!

aye, still got a few bits i can do to it, like port the inlet, that made a HUGE difference last time.

i'd say they're fine. My apex's were ALOT softer than my valver on a 60mm drop, thats bone chattering!

I used to do a 140miles a day on apexs with buckets. they're not harsh!

the ph1 172 cat is the best of the lot, decats make barely any difference!

speedo cables are only like £20 too.

My 172 was on stock shocks for 30ish k on apex 40mm:

Takes alot to dent a 172 roof, my 172 was just bouncing stuff off icluding a hammer!

nah piss easy mate, dash top off and its in the gearbox at the back near the d/s comes out the bulkhead, not easy to miss!

iirc renault only charge £20...

nah, the speedos get wobbly if the cable is old.

nah, but then again he didnt check much lol

the plastic clip buckles go through mot's
