VVT springs
How important is it to change these. Engines been rebuilt but not sure if they were done. Wanted to put all the cambelt etc back on this weekend, or would it be worth waiting to get some VVT springs and do them as well.

Any advice for a first time (home) buyer
When I got my house they knocked 10k off the asking price then I offered another 10k lower. They raised me 1k. So 19k cheaper, bargain!! The people where desperate to move, so they practically took whatever.

Water pump
Aparantely you can do it with the cambelt on still. Theres a few things to take off, like the rad, fan. I got all the front end off my engine at the moment and it wasnt hard to do.

Advice on Compression Test Results
All 6 plugs have to be out. Engine warm. Turn over 6 or 8 times till the needle wont go any higher, and must have throtle to the floor. I did mine on the front 4 only and had 130.(left the back to plugs in) Did it properly then had 150 except the no.6 (back right) which had 90 and was f***ed. Did wet on no.6 and it was 150, so the rings where fooked. Getting to the back ones doesnt take long at all, just gotta take the balance bar off and a couple of pipes.

A sad sight....what have I started!?!
