good example.... but still not 100% to my tastes

thats why they invented latex gloves!

peeps, realising that we have alot on in May, with JapFest and Z008. Do you guys want me to sort out a monthly meet as well or what? Let me know if you do so i can get working at it. Your Faithfull servant Nick

Ill come along for moral support, not going to run mine until i got some of my bits, which aint for a while.

then your half way there. If you can keep organised with everything, youll be fine. What i did when i had some garage space at my parents, i bought a engine from a clapped out mini from my local scrappy, and just worked my way round it. Just took it apart and put it back together. It got me really confident with tools, and more than anything, i worked out a system that i now stick to when it comes to knowing where stuff goes

To be honest, the way i did it was exactly that, got a haynes manual and getting stuck in. I learned 95% of the stuff i do now through practice, making mistakes, and learning how to get round those mistakes. just get stuck in and get your hands dirty. Mechanics is easy! all it is is taking something apart in the right order, change what ever is busted, and put it back together in the right. Just learn to be patient and take your time, make notes. Its all easier than it looks!

mate, it could be something as simple as a release bearing. Dont get yourself wound up just yet

what makes you think its screwed?? apart from the fact it wont go into reverse. Does it just grind or what?

Its not my thread mate, i was just checking on how vijay was getting on with this. Nothing more

I think that is a VERY good idea!

Have a good one fellas :duffer:

that look like probably the WORST film EVER!!!

anymore for any more??

not me either

dont think its me you want to be responding to fella :D

considering i paid £2.4k for my 97 blade, which hold there money better, 2 years ago, id say it was WAAAAAAAY overpriced. Wouldnt pay over £2.5 for it! There will be plenty about mate, you just gotta keep your eye out for the right one

you sure youve not popped a CV joint. sounds like CV grease

overpriced if you ask me

any joy?

on a black car, err, no

cheers mate, you dug up more than i could find

if hes dead, he will come up on an online obituary. I hope its not the case, but its how i found out when of my mates had died

anyone googled his real name yet?

this isnt working out well! Hope you get in touch soon mate
