Least it's only 3 injectors you have to worry about for a while now if you get a misfire. :)

Hi Mick, You honestly havn't gone wrong anywhere with me! I am just trying to get a scope on prices in general with the companies that are more local to me, with similarly good reputations when it comes to the work carried out. Your replies were the quickest I got and have left me with lots of...

Spoken to DDC, and been told its £440 for the timing belt/aux,+ £150 for dephaser + £42 for oil but i'd be able to supply my own oil.

I think you're right mate! Probably would do a good job mind, but i doubt it'd be a better job as surely there's only '1' right way to do the belts/timing? Can't wait to get out with the car now!

Least you can rest in the knowledge of the car having £1500 worth of belts :dizzy:

At RSMurray they stated that "£260" is labour alone, hence the high price and that there was no movement. Seems everyone has bad experiences at different places! I'd go RSTuning, but feel the price wont be far off RSMurray for the belts doing. Might just bite the bullet and go DDC for belts...

Proper Hijacked this thread...

I'm stuck between DDC and ricky now. Will give both a ring tomorrow and see when they can fit me in.

Had never heard of him to be fair. Quality of the work done well? No timing issues?

EG Looked ace!

Was only the aux I think changed mate. Still ridiculous!

All genuine parts at DDC I presume? For £70 it's worth it!

That's cheap! I'll give them a ring in a bit and try get booked in. Better sooner than later.

How much were belts/dephaser at DDC? I think it's worthwhile changing the dephaser too for the peace of mind alone. DDC seem slightly closer to me than Clioturbo too which is good. RSMurray wouldn't budge on the price, it did seem quite high! I just bought a service kit so would I get money...

Dephaser worth doing at the same time even with no rattle beforehand? I'm contemplating waterpump but i know that's not a cambelt off job.

I'm looking around to get my belts done now on my 182. Thought i'd shove some pricings up so far with full belt kit and dephaser change. RS Murray are offering £700, Clioturbo are £495, waiting on replies from RSTuning, diamond motors and DTM. What are peoples experiences with Clioturbo? Seems...

Well the SGS one arrived today and it seems to be decent quality! Not yet tried it as it's wet outside but for the price it's looking pretty good. Was quite interesting they suggest servicing of it every month and topping up with oil, how many people do that with their trolley jacks?

Does look a little odd, I thought this before but just thought you'd painted it. This is the satnav base though.

I read in a thread on here before someone who had got some sort of insulation/ sound proofing stuff from b&q I believe and lined his boot floor, rear doorcards with the stuff to reduce rattles and stop the road noise. Can't find it for the life of me now though!

Sorry ive only just seen this! I made a thread on here but I havn't updated it recently as the cars at my mums in York, whilst i study in Huddersfield. http://www.cliosport.net/threads/1974-spitfire-restoration.791022/ Looking good now though, wish I had the space like you! All my works been...

I have one of these - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00DDMPMKK/?tag=cliospnet01-21 Awesome powerful little things!

Looks like it has herpes. Such a shame though, but I guess they're not too noticeable? A respray isnt too expensive anyway ;) That big cloth looks the orange drying towel I got from asda, similar pile depth.

The older ones aren't too expensive are they?

You going to go to a sport after this or is that not really what you're after?

Microsoft Surface?

Would you not recommend any ARB for road use?

Spoiler? :) Also the vanish trick is you fill up a bucket of hot water, add vanish, unscrew the belts at the bottom and extend fully then either shut them in the door or use a peg to stop it retracting. Shove inside the bucket and agitate, leave to soak, then agitate, leave to soak then wipe...

Mine are the red polybushes but need adjusting as the left pipes off centre and don't want it burning the trim.

Mine had the same stickers and they came off and left nothing behind.

Really nice! Your exhausts sit really flush with the back of your bumper, what you running?
