Yea looking at their website again: http://www.jawel.co.uk/online_shop/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1_45 This is the description of the 200ml one: "PRO-XL 2K Clear 200ml Pro2kClear is a superior high gloss crystal clear finish that has excellent..." The 500ml one that is below...

Is this the white one you mentioned above? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Aerosol-Car-Bike-Lacquer-Professional-2K-product-Clear_W0QQitemZ360242043609QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Body_Shop_Supplies_Paint?hash=item53e0195ad9#ht_760wt_939 I agree it does look poorer quality, but its 400ml. Whereas the pro-2k...

Just wanna check rele quickly, I am supposed to screw the nut on the rear dampers on as tight as I can?

Yeaaap just worked that out lol.

Thank you soo much. Do I use spring clamps on the coilover, coz when I take off the transport nut obviously the blue bit comes off, and I'm having difficulty forcing it back down enough with the bearing on it to allow me to screw the nut on?

Someone pleaseee help I'm trying to do it right now? Actually I've been looking and does the blue bit stay on top of the coilover, then the bearing, then the rubber bit, then the nut? Do I undo the nut that holds the blue bit on, then put the bearing/rubber bit on and then put the nut back...

I need help again pleasee lol. I've got the front shock off, and removed the top bearing bit, I'm just not sure what bits go on the coilover strut? Do you take the blue bit off the coilover? Then how do the other bits go on?

Yea will be carefull. I've just changed the clutch over the past weekend, I think you may have commented on my other thread about it, but through doing that Im wary of pulling the driveshafts out lol. It was quite an achievement for me! One last question, well for tonight anyway:) I've put the...

lol I like asking the experts! I like to be absolutely definite before doing anything. So I don't just blunder in and do something wrong and potentially dangerous. Thanks for all your help, I'll give it a go tomorow.

Thanks for your help. What I meant was in Fubar's guide: He says 'do not remove the bolts all the way; simply make sure they are loose' I interpreted this as meaning the rubber top mount bit, but in order to take the strut out I would need to remove the rubber bit in his photo, which was what...

Don't worry I'm not going to undo that nut completely lol. That's what I mean about being wary of them, and asking before doing, having read all the posts about firing springs and such. Could you just clarify which bolt it is Im meant to loosen which will allow me to take the strut out?

Another question! I'm trying the fronts and I'm a little wary about it, I do have spring clamps, but I would just like to be sure what I'm doing before attempting anything. Basically I was under the impression from the guides you just need to loosen the top mount in the photo below, and undo...

Turns out that the old shock I photographed is missing one of the other blue rubber bits, which is why I wasn't sure. Given up on the fronts now, too hard :(

I thought I'd make a new thread with a more suitable title as no doubt I'll have more questions when it comes to fitting the fronts! I'm trying to fit my Vmaxx Coilovers, (to a non sport) and have started with the rears. Now I am unsure on the rear shocks which rubber bits/washers go where...

Ooo right, can someone tell me if I'm fitting the rears right lol: I'm guessing the blue and yellow on the Vmaxx go together to make the same shape as the blue bit on the old shock, but it's just there's another rubber bit (green) which I don't know where it goes?

Anyoneee pleasee lol

Right just trying to fit my Vmaxx's (Non-sport), I've wd40'd the rear adjustors before putting them on, and will use the silicone 3in1 stuff above for the fronts. Now another amateur question lol: Can I just clarify Im putting the rear shocks on correctly? The black line is the the car, so...

Yea, Mine are Vmaxx so I'll just stick to that one above for now. Gna clean them up with water before I put them on

Is this what you mean for a silicone spray? I'm putting them on today, so don't want to duck tape them up immediately, as I'll probably need to adjust them when they settle, so thats why I want to keep them in good condition so they're easy to adjust. Oh and another thing, they're second...

Just wondering is it a good idea to put some kind of grease on your coilovers to prevent them from seizing up from dirt and such like when they're on the the car? Is there a specific type of grease which would be best?

Hours of work later, one new clutch and the car back together, and my starts perfectly first time. Well apart from having to jump start it. Most satisfying thing I've done ever. God knows how I didn't muck anything up with my blundering around lol. Bring on the coilovers next :) Big...

Ooh Im not really sure where the input shaft is let alone the sleeve :S ha Please explain so I don't unknowingly make the same mistake lol.

Yea Im not looking forward to putting the box back on lol At least I've changed the clutch now, so after all this effort I've finally done what I set out to do :) Yea cheers James, wouldn't have even thought about attempting it if I hadn't spoken to you! Bux you did it in a day! I don't know...

Done it! Got the gearbox out. Woop. Biggest achievement on my car ever lol

Well I've budged it a bit, but its really hard to get it to move sideways so it can go down, its getting it off those locating bolts:

Oh great thanks, yea I've got my trolley jack and a block of wood, and the little wind up jack that came with my spare wheel. I'll report back how I get on lol.

Thanks again for all your help! Right I think I've got them all that connect the Box to the engine, as its come away slightly Its just the other side now, the passenger side. Can I undo these three bolts, which althought means more bolts looks more simple for me: Or can I undo the middle...

Ohhh I see now lol. Re. undoing the top mount, if I undo the middle bolt of that will that mean the bits holding it to the chassis on the passenger side will all come free? Im finding it really hard finding which ones I need to undo and which I don't lol. Im sounding so stupid asking all...

Thanks for all your help. On this one in red, you undo the nut and then youv'e got a bolt that doesn't have a head on either side, does it hammer out or something? And in the second photo in my last post of the bolts on the passenger side, they all go to the top mount it looks like so if...

Thanks mate I've got them off now. Is that everything apart from the bolts holding it to the engine/chassis? Do I need to release all the bolts holding the gearbox, so I can take it right out? Are these red ones the right ones, I know there's more..? Also do I undo any on the other...
