Re: changing suspension bushes??

You do need a good vice or G clamps & a burner. I used a normal gas burner I purchased from Halfords this just helps free the old bushes.
There was a really good right up for this but I just can’t find it at the mo, still looking.

Re: how much for a de-cat?

I think most people rate the AUSSIE down pipe/cat replacement for about £250. I know fensport http://www.fensport.co.uk sell these not sure who else does. The down pipe is a separate part of the exhaust. So you could still keep the stock exhaust or go the whole hog & by an after market one as we...

The bottom pic is defiantly a rev 3. Do you know the history of the car as it must have had a transplant at some point.

Re: Difference in injectors

A long story Chris Had a bit of engine problem a while back & took it to a local garage. They told me it was a dodgy injector connector but said it’s all right now as they got a new part from the scrappy. I recently had a dyno run & it only came in at 230 bhp which got me thinking about the ...

valve clearance?

I have been toying with the idea of having a crack at changing my cam belt, I also noticed on the 60k service something about checking & adjusting valve clearance.
Is this an important task to do, if so how easy is it or should I just let MrT do the whole thing after having re mortgaged my house
