Turns out I have stripped the thread where the manifold stud screws into So have a few questions: >What metal is this part of the engine? >Best solution, tap to a bigger bolt or helicoil? >I have also seen some Loctite thread locker, and reviews are great. Anyone tried this stuff and found it good? Supposedly can repair stripped threads holding to the bolt up to 128lbft

The issue is with what you are taught in school! Started to google some of his actions etc after he died, turns out they missed out a lot about him. Do some googling on the 'other side of Nelson Mandela' and it will change your opinion..did with me.

Ahh yeh remember you saying? How you finding it?

Hot pipe i think you're getting at bolts to turbo then silicone hose to intercooler

Will do.. Was considering selling after christmas

Yeh its turbo, its relatively quick haha. Get used to the speed though and just spend and spend making it quicker. Not running atm has have a rounded thread on the manifold so blowing like mad

yeh man i've been to a few of there little meets.

they don't have coilovers really can't be bothered to take everything apart again, is it easy enough to take the manfiold off leaving turbo in place and supporting it while tapping?Or is it one of those shortcuts that is gonna take earlier.

Find me on facebook too dude its Ollie Haynes

yeh i went last year to them both, but had an ignis sport then... Check out onewheelpeel.co.uk its a couple of my local mates websites, just started but aim to organise meets etc locally.

thats a girls, don't think she's on here. Im just up the road from her!

yeh its black, think i may have seen yours in abbeymead before?

sounds like a plan!!ccheers bud

I've got a glanza v. Don't think theres many if any people from Gloucester on here, know theres one in Stroud. Where abouts in gloucester are you? what colours your starlet ill keep an eye out

im in gloucester

I just printed off the logo onto a3 and cut it out. then tapped the stencil to the intercooler and sprayed. In other news little progress and the want for a drift car could see this going up for sale soon once i've fixed the blowing manifold

I need to experience this haha

i'd be interested

Step dad can sort out tapping it..just gotta take everything off again. Wish i could replace it with a td04 this time haha

Pretty sure my turbo and everything else is fine.. I hope so anyway. I probably have a mate who can do it. Longer with no car:(

So basically got the stud seems to screw in fine, then when i tighten the bolt up the stud then just spins. I think i have fucked the thread which the stud screws into. Massive headache, no idea how im gonna get it sorted.
