It's looking like it's a go but will be on these awful tyres I was going to swap the wheels just for the show back to the prodrive but passanger side I must have hit a pothole badly as it bubbled inside wall and split the back wheel :( But done about 100 miles today on these tyres feel ok in the dry. But all being well I will make it :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PazzaN96 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 So today I found that after replacing the centre pipe from corrosion, and replacing the cat due to corrosion, I now have a nice crack in the weld of the flange that connects the manifold to the cat [emoji19] looks like the splitter might have to wait and a new manifold sorted ...

PazzaN96 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Too right, at least it's just the manifold... Did a service on it the other week and I can't find any paperwork in its folder for when it was done last and the plugs where just manky Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Might be worth looking at doing the cambelt too at some point if you're unsure when it was done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PazzaN96 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I did the belts the week I picked it up, as the place I bought it from gave me money off as they knew it needed doing... The auxiliary belt was squeezing the day after I got it... Just as well I love this car Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandals Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Booked in for a remap tomorrow, they had a cancellation and offered 15% off if someone can fill it! Just need to replace my downpipe gasket which is proving problematic... one nut and bolt has jammed while loosening, thankfully there is a gap between the downpipe and the head of the bolt so i can get a hacksaw in there... thankfully it's a nice day!
