Do I have a problem with my engine or not?
It should have "stiff spots", its where the compression builds up as the pisons reach TDC. If you are worried about compression problems then best to do a quick compression test with a pressure gauge.

Front bumper ariel
may be able to get to the front parking aid aerial if you remove the bumper indicators

Is this a stupid idea?
Those that remove it , do so for weight and becuase it blocks the rad, so better cooling without it. Aircon would use more power to operate than it would probably benefit for cooling the engine bay.

New zed video - Very good!
They probably did'nt buy a cheap, rough, abused 15yr+ old example, then they probably maintained and serviced it and replaced worn parts that were now past there natural servicable lifetime.......but thats just a guess ;)

What can the stock clutch handle?
Stock power is 280-300 at the fly, and 230-250 at wheels. Years and mileage will have taking its a toll a little though. I think stock clutch starts to struggle at around 350 ib/ft, depending on condition. on the TT bhp normally equals about the same torque. so RPS Sport is around 450ib/ft Costs would be around £150-£200 labour, and worth getting the rear main seal (£10) done at same time. Could also consider lightweight flywheel at same time too.

Rear subframe bushes....weeping...MOT failure?
Yep, try what diddy P did first and discretely wipe them when he not looking. Unfortunatly its quite a big job to do, the whole rear subframe has to be removed so you can get the old bushes out and the new ones pressed in.
