oh i will!!! its my hobby ;) haha only joking
thats a gates/QH cambelt kit as that isn't a renault oe tensioner, but i'm 100% sure that belt tension is wrong
the little sticky out bit on the back of the tensioner is in the correct slot i assume?
what the 197's?? erm edde my son mr Icarus ran the BPM 197 in the britcar 24 hour on a pair of Brembo HC discs and Performance Friction pads (2 sets on the front) stock brembo ROAD calipers
the car came first in class too ;)
the stock exhaust is ok, but it will be as rusty as f**k and fall off soon anyway
strut braces are only decent if you bolt them through the strut tops properly, don't use the self tappers
well chances are is been covered in coolant
you could whack it back on if you wanted too, you can just buy the belt on its own also
did the garage fit a cambelt kit (belt, tensioners and idlers)
they leak through the bearing, as martin says the water pump HAS to be changed with the cambelt, people who have no experience with this engine won't change it
parts are about £100 and its 2-3hours depending on if you have aircon
you could just replace the belt if the garage fitted new...
