filler don't work, there's "other stuff" that does ;) no need to face the wheels

turinis are a nightmare, the surface corrodes hence the pitting, we've found a way to get rid of it, but it costs due to the labour time i always warn people first with turinis, once they're stripped if they're found to be badly pitted there's 2 options, have them filled and done properly, or...

^i saw a ford Ka with the exact same sticker on it today, i did chuckle!

he'll be fishing for ideas for his ;)

a 428 car should be doing anywhere between 185-195bhp (depending on what else is done) with around 160lbs/ft

good luck!

IE a cup master cylinder? i've got one turning up in 30min, i'll let you know

he wasn't even going quick? WTF?

do they have the renault tools to do the cambelt? ALWAYS ask that question if they haven't walk away

looks familiar anyway, i seem to recall a purple/blue one with an addz number plate

get it to a specialist ASAP, if your aux belt lets go - bye bye engine (it has a 99% chance of wrapping itself round the crank and f**king the cambelt) 2.2 hour job off the top of my head, for an amateur without the aux tool i'd say more like 4hours

The Bronx Estate? am i likley to get shot at?

did it have an addz number plate? new engine it was in for IIRC? i know Nick and Andrei aka "the russian" very well

sure that wasn't your ganster tool that broke it danny? ;)

6rib 1661mm is the stock belt why are you changing the belt?

top mount "nipped" until you feel resistance from the spring lower fronts are 140nm IIRC rear lower QFT

i doubt its the pipes that are the issues, usually the pump

If you want to be completely accurate, multiply the PS figure by 0.9864 to reach the bhp total, or bhp by 1.0139 to get back to PS. thanks google! ;)

don't be silly!

i'll drag my arse out of bed for this

in simple terms engine swap + cams, degrease EVERYTHING, bit of paint - hey presto BTM black spec engine

laptop is on its side ;)

mechanically the 172 swap is straight forward, electrics are a bit or an arse, nothing major though, if you can get an entire donor car, makes life easier

same as R5 and mk1 clio, lucas caliper

e-mail!

do you know how much a new cat costs fro renault?? £900 IIRC!

inconel, haha show off!
