ro55ifumi Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Who's been a busy boy glad to hear you got the 6 speed back in mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lukEp Posted April 3, 2011 Author Share Posted April 3, 2011 Cheers john, yeh been really busy need it all sorting for japfest now and had the ALK for nearly 12month now and only just fit it, new water pump on and crank oil seal. Hopefully should get the power steering belt polarva sorted out today, local motor factors have sent me two wrong ones so far which is starting to piss me off big time.

lukEp Posted April 5, 2011 Author Share Posted April 5, 2011 All sorted, 6speeds back in and smoooooth as fuck even goes in reverse without a fight lol.ALK fitted and wow it grips more on the front seems to dig in more, crank oil seal fixed so no more oil leak , also had to change the water pump which was only just over 12month old as it had a drip on it so better safe than sorry. Also fitted my 98spec fogs and it was a pain in the arse, but looks the dogs dangles. Car seems to be pulling like a train with the 6speed on I've missed it so much. Would defo recommend one to anyone Quote Link to post Share on other sites
