Great Day! ------------------ ->Glen - ..hang on a minute lads... I got a great idea..

Alt/Water pump belt decided to depart company from my car ! decided to replace the belt myself. loosed the AC belt ok via undoing the idler pully adjuster bolts. Loosed the Alt motor ok via its adjuster bolts ok Went to loosen the PS Pump via its Adjuster bolt, did this but the pump refuses to budge! is there another bolt I have to loosen so I can take the PS belt off? and where is it? I got the car jacked up so I'm working from underneath the car. Duffman u must know, I've been looking at the online manual, and can only find the tension adjuster bolt.

What size front? What size rear? Where from? How much?

K plater 200 Turbo manual with 75K on the clock and she's chuffed to bits. Bit ropey round the boot spoiler but that won't matter when it's been kitted up and sprayed. Hey I must say that these cars are cheap as chips but like my old Mk III Soup are ALOT of car for the money! Goes like a ding bat(what exactly is a ding bat?) and handles really well too. So the way she is giving me more rabbit than Sainsbury's equates to I pay 1200 squids to buy it for her = 10K to mod it! Mug or what? ROFL So she can park up with the SXOC.com lot at Billing next year but she says she wants to park up with us instead...wooooooooooooooooo! LOL -------…

Fitted the Porterfield Cryo front brake discs about a month ago, they are Brmebo blanks that they Cryo treat. Fitted the Porterfield R4 race pads the day before going to Rockingham and a refill of DOT5.1. It felt great on the road, massive breaking power. However on track after doing 3/4 laps at a time and leaving it 15/20 to cool or more by the end of the day got them glowing on a 2 hot lap and the pads melting. NO BRAKES AT ALL, and was a bit of a problem as I had just come to the end of the pit lane straight off the banked corner 4 at 120mph though the cones and drifted to a standstill.
