Breaking a zed
My clutch was only about £150 from local supplier andy page. nothing special but it's never skipped a beat. Obviously not putting the power through it that you will be though. Where is it kev? would he mind if the car was on longer than a day? i.e if the manifold was shot I'd have to source another one. I'm debating taking it to jeff to get done with a few other bits, awaiting a reply to my pm with a quote. A couple of my mechanic mates are more than willing to help but I have fears of snapping a bolt in the block and then been totally ****ed! But as for your clutch Dave it isn't too bad a job from what I remember (obviously a good few hours) aslong as there's a long as **** extension for the top bolts and I think a press to get the baring out then you should be laughing.

Yeah mines off the road now until I get this manifold sorted.

Advise from Groover or Phutumsch (or any LED specialist) please....
Excellent, cheers I'll have a look at getting it sorted. I may forget about the hid's for the time been.

Is this not a good idea? I figured it would be similar to your fog light HID install, but in the indicators. So I can fit the fog light vents. Not sure if it'll fit though, I can't remember how long a HID lamp is. But back to these switchbacks. So if I just find myself the oem lamp holder from the rear for the break lights and side lights and that will fit in the existing indicator slot? and then I just need to wire them up? instead of modding the lugs, could I just leave a little bit of cable on the old bulb holder and the existing lugs and then just insulink the new cables on? the diagram on the eBay add is confusing me a little though.

Sounds like a nice idea. Do you have to drill the indicator housing or does the other lamp holder fit? I should be able to get a pair from a scrappy. have you got any pictures of the modded lugs? I had an idea to put angel eyes in as side lights and then fit another pair of HID's as a fog light but in the indicator housing. But If I could combine the side lights and the indicators on one holder, then there would be a spare way in the housing for the HID fogs. So I wouldn't need the angel eyes.

They look crazy. is that combining your side lights and indicators onto one single lamp holder?

Should I replace or reuse turbos gaskets
Ok cheers bud. I'll keep that in mind for when I get round to it.
-
Should I replace or reuse turbos gaskets
Excellent, Cheers Mark, I'm assuming these aren't hard to come by, not like the problem I had with my exhaust.
-
Should I replace or reuse turbos gaskets
But as for mine, If I'm taking off the manifold then I should replace all gaskets?

99 spec bumper fog lights or scoops?
could the same method not be applied to 89 spec ones?
-
Manifold blowing???
Is it best to fit all new gaskets and bolts on the turbo's and front pipes when putting it all back together?
-
99 spec bumper fog lights or scoops?

Big thanks to Mike at MJP
It was £236.74 to be precise. No surprise import duty, all in to my door. I can't wait either, I had it all sorted for getting it fitted. I'm getting new roof tiles fitted in a few weeks, So I was going to have the car in the body shop while the scaffold was on the drive. I've nearly got my clear indicators tinted, just need to give them a rub down to add a bit of shine. But now my manifold is blowing I don't know what to do. It could end up costing me a fortune to get the manifold fixed and the lip may have to wait till the new year. :crying:

Opened the lip today bud, all is well. Didn't realise how much flex it actually has, It really is a good quality bit of kit. However it won't be getting fitted for a while now due to other problems, but I can't wait till it's finished. Big thanks again though Mike for sorting it all out. :biggrin: :clap: :thumbup:
