The plaque should be on the passenger suspension strut. It will just have 4 digits on it to say what the build number is.

yeah a very somber atmosphere out here also. Thoughts go out to the families.

VF28 will see between 330-340bhp flat oot

I used a bit of african engineering and rigged up some rope under the car to suspend the box from. Made it easier for lifting back into place rather than having to lift it from the ground and also means no need to watch out for knocking a jack. Wish i had ramps

Ask Bob at Aztec performance. You will find hm on scoobynet. He does clutches at great prices. Bought a few things from him now and he provides an excellent next day service.

£42?? Jesus H. I normally get about £6-8 ever time the vouchers come in

If im following someone with heir fogger on then either blind them with the driving lights...or just overtake them. My Rear fogger is sh!t so no chance of getting blinded by me as it never gets used. I do however sit at traffic lights with foot on brake rather than using h/brake like said above.

Do you know the edition numbers of the ones for sale? If you ask over on p1woc.co.uk then we might know more about the cars your looking at. I have had mine for over 18months now ad has been used as a daily driver. Sailed through the mot's no problem. Only problem i have had was the 5th gear nut coming loose. Oh and seeing lots of shiney parts for sale that seem to attract my wallet a lot!!

It wont be the actuator as you would still hear the turbo spooling. More than likely that the turbo has seized. Try taking the inlet hose off and spining the compressor wheel by hand.

Bit slow in getting the pics up but better late than never. Was a good day and nice to see a good turnout for the event.

Scott @ Motorwerks. He is in Forest Avenue Lane in aberdeen. Give him a call on 07740 587903

Pesonally wouldnt mate. Used them last year. Took ages and was not really impressed at all with the finished results. Castle Park Autobody in ellon are supposed to be really good though and they will be my choice for redoing my bumper soon.

Thanks for the replies. Thats a few votes for that i have had in a few forums. Heres hoping thats the cause. Next question....Any hints and tips for removing the gearbox?

Driving along today at around 40mph, went to select 5th, felt a bit dodgy and when i backed off the throttle it popped out of gear. When i select 5th gear it gives a little crunch like the synchromesh has departed and 5th gear still pulls fine if i hold the gearstick in place. But if i let go and take foot off throttle then it pops out again. Every other gear is still ok. Anyone have any suggestions as to what could be the problem? Looks like this weekend will be spent removing a gearbox Thanks in advance

Same here

You will be fine mate. Im in the same boat. Just bought it online yesterday, although they say 5 days thats just to cover their ass. I would think it will be here tomorrow anyway. But so long as you have paid for it then you will be ok. Im sure you get a couple of days leeway as well.

Another vote for the STI rear lights. Will finish it off a treat. Other than that cars looking good! Good effort.

Me causing trouble again was i? SURELY NOT!!

Check out my pea shooter of an exhaust

Should have asked Sandy from aberdeenscoobies. He is from up there IIRC

Get yourself onto Aberdeen Scoobies as we have a group buy going for this. Place in Inverurie called PPS, or another one is Finesse Coatings in Aberdeen. I know of a guy who sends them away down south cant remember the exact name of the place he puts them but they are really good although a bit more expensive than the above two places.

Weird

Would still go for the diff, as happens with engine off, in neutral, just moving car at low speeds and locks up. Would the gearbox cause that to happen?

There is no cutting of wires involved in it i dont think.
