the threads on the caliper are fine, not strectched, so i dunno if the bolts threads could have been, im no expert, guess it could be possible, but they were treated to a (small) dab of locktite.. just glad it didnt cause no more damage, and very lucky the disc didnt warp either.

the rad, yeah plain bonkers really, although it was topped up before the massive freeze we had, still not a good thing to do granted, should have swapped out the rad for the new one sooner..

looks like the S3 lump mate (BAM) already got some bits for the conversion, wanna get it off the road before the MOT is due (MAY) and done, coz i wanna fit a new steering rack at the same time as when the engine is out as i have some play and a slight leak in the one thats on the car now, so that could be a MOT fail anyhow.
