  10. Well i dropped the car for mot last night but had a slight mishap on the way there i forgot to tighten the wheel nuts and the passenger side front wheel fell off lol lucky i was only doing 5mph. Well it failed the bloke on the phone said i need new fuel lines as there all fucked and leaking also failed on the windscreen wipers, When i got to the mot station i looked at the fuel lines and realized they wasn't that bad they just needed replacing from the fuel pump to where it joins at the bottom of the car. A bit of rubber fuel pipe later a little blood and going for a pint it was finished Its getting a retest in the morning as i didnt finish until half 6ish so its only cost me £15 to get it mot'ed :D i now have the customs paid duty form so im off to the dvla on monday to get the badger registered

  21. Hello Ive tried looking on tgtt and couldnt find anything. Whats the best way of removing the standard ep*5 lump in regards to the 4wd system. Eg. Can i remove the standard lump with the gearbox in place? Or disconnect the prop shaft and pull the lot out? Im looking at doing the conversion asap and jus trying to find out as much as possible ;)
  22. yeh ok stu i will try them out if thats ok Give me a text when your down.
  23. Bean- Have you got a website or something were i can find out about the springs? Bucketep91- I have fitted them on my 4wd shocks
  24. aye enzo called me about an hour ago and there's a company called rs*r that make lowering springs by the sound of it but we shall have to wait and see. But in regards to cutting the springs i will only lop a coil off nothing extreme its better then a hot rod styleee starlet
  25. cutting the springs is only a temp measure until another solution is available
