got the wax on when the weather broke - Auto Glym stuff :)

jeez tell me about it - I was washing sap off my car in the pouring rain - the neighbours must have thought I was mad

so if you take it off you will be looking to replace it with a recirc?

Rad pipe should hold it as a temp no problem - I wouldnt like to risk bits of the putty going around my system possibly sticking somewhere else

Sorry dont know of any in that part of the world

Wotcha and welcome

Dont you have a recirc valve in place as standard at the moment?

easy enough to change once in situ so why not live with it for a bit :)

thats a tidy example - and wrt mods its an addictive slippery slope but a great ride ;)

that is a bargain as Gambit said the DV could get you most of that back if you wanted

we do love a project thread, post as you go and you get input along the way - people who have done similar - oh and some general gibberish as well. The pictures on the site are for illustration only, if you give the company a ring at the very least you may be able to get a part number out of them

I would have had money on you getting it with the first shot - hey ho it takes me a a fair bit of thinking to find one guys wont get straight off :P

yup hope it sells

doesnt look too bad - masking tape and some paint will sort those alloys out as a temp - thin spokes mean you can get away with some imperfections in the spray job - will spruce them right up

right, your code comes back as a model finishing in Aug 2000 so just check with the company on the link as it may be the other one in this link - dont know if there is a difference? Even though the codes for the cat are the same http://www.onlineautomotive.co.uk/Products.aspx?ID=NgAzADEAMAAzADIANgA0AHcAWABMAGwASQAnAFgAXABOACMAIQBYADcA

It was photos of the whole car - we are nosey on this forum and like to see what every one else is driving and as yours is a replica it would be good to see how far you have got ;)

ok so without codes this is a bit of a gamble but this link has a cat with a description that fits yours - £241 inc vat http://www.onlineautomotive.co.uk/Products.aspx?ID=NgAzADEAMAAzADgANgA0AHcAWABMAGwASQAnAFgAXABOACMAIQBYADcA

thats the one :P

Wotcha and welcome - any chance you could post the model number - it should be on the plate under the bonnet on top of the strut mounting, that would help with the searching and some photos would be great ;)

I have had a 3 way valve motor fail on me in the past that stopped the system working. Boilers are portrayed to be some sort of magical unit that a chosen few must touch - mine was getting noisier earlier this year, funds being tight I did a bit of research and discovered they are just like a smaller heat exchanger unit I had worked on before in the mob - the noise was coming from the exhaust fan which suffer from dry bearing shafts which stops the fan - no fan, no flow, no flow no fire up. One whistle around with the vaccuum cleaner a blast of BG Products penetrating oil and all is peachy :P

Wotcha and welcome - Answered succinctly, let us know how you get on

ok give away clue added ;)

very generous - hopefully someone can make use of them

have you thought of using a grease gun to get the pistons out - high pressure but no sudden expansion when they go, unlike air pressure avoids flying metal?

they do look well shot - amazing how bad some of these calipers are left to get
