Si@Fiske Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 yeh im glad its all finished! all i can say is fitting a bonnet on your own in the rain is a wee bit tricky Quote
RobSR Posted April 29, 2008 Author Posted April 29, 2008 scraped through the MOT today ;)Also got my eye on some Grey recaro's Quote
RobSR Posted April 29, 2008 Author Posted April 29, 2008 cheers..yup, bonnet needs a tiny bit of re-aligning, the bad news is...one of the HID's have go pop, the new supposedly good gearbox is shite, so am buying yet another one, and the crank oil seal is leaking i think ;) Rob Quote
Nanglebadger Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 shite!hope u can get it all sorted A.OK man!Phil. Quote
RobSR Posted April 29, 2008 Author Posted April 29, 2008 yup may take a while tho, as gearbox fitting aint cheap...and i dont think the labour for doing the crank seal will be either ;) Quote
Nanglebadger Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!good luck mate!Phil. Quote
RobSR Posted April 29, 2008 Author Posted April 29, 2008 indeed...just need it sorted so i can learn to drive in it, build up some no claims, and then hopefully, start a decent project! ;) Quote
scutch0 Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 jeez rob... you dont have much luck with this car do you?has he broken it again? ;) Quote
RobSR Posted April 30, 2008 Author Posted April 30, 2008 ^ err no, not broken it lol, the gearbox was funked from the off...i know why the HID was playing up the connection to the lights i think is iffy, after that side was hit i belive so ill have to have a look at that.....ill speak to dave about the oil seal...another problem i didnt mention was that, the alarm random decides to go off now, but i think its to do with the Bee*R deciding to send out ignition signals when the cars locked, hence why it thinks the ignition is being tampered with, hence why it goes off Quote
scutch0 Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 your neighbor must be attempting to throw things at it rob... he must be well pleased when that goes off at night! Quote
RobSR Posted May 1, 2008 Author Posted May 1, 2008 ^ pretty much he's a twat so i dont really care Quote
Guest Enzo Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 will a new seal not work or is the new gearbox totaly cuffed, did you get warrenty on it?whats the craic with your old screwed gearbox, could you still get it on a palet and up to me after ive sorted out postage?? Quote
RobSR Posted May 1, 2008 Author Posted May 1, 2008 err well, the original has been binned mate...the garage did that unfortunately, the one thats in there will be coming out, and once again another one going in that will work this time as its off bourkeys SR..So once again i will have a mullered one coming out that you can have, if you want it that is There was meant to be a warrenty on it, but i have no clue where the recipt for it is, not sure if we even got one...stupid, i know, but you learn.The oil seal is the crank oil seal we belive mate...not one on the gearbox Quote
Guest Enzo Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 ok sound, aye i definatly want that gearbox for the bellhousing man, please see if you can, means i can finaly do somethin with this six speed and maybe get the auto converted. Quote
