they are good quality, except you need to replace some washers before you use it otherwise it will fail or something.

Doesn't sound quite right.........

i know, wont go buying anything until i've found out more about. the people i have talked to have that have used them say the only problem is those washers, apparently they are crap!

i fitted a non-return valve for the inlet manifold to servo vacuum line. thanks to a member on here i shouldnt be so unlucky as to have my servo pop on me. thanks dude :afro:

also had a look under the car at the exhaust to see if a mount had failed (exhaust not sitting straight) and yes one of the mounts has failed. so will fix that next week too!

btw, how am i getting away with being on here on a day like today?!?!? :evil: ohh sh!t here she comes! :D :D

f**k! Those rims are so sweet mate! Looks so much better now. I'd leave them like that rather than painting them personally :wink:

just read up on the obx diff's and yes they are just quaife copies, but they are meant be good stuff! i think if you mod and change the bolts as per the link above, it should be good stuff. mine is a daily and isn't ragged everywhere, so its ideal for me! i think i will be saving up for one of them if i can find someone to fit it for me :)

By the time you've bu99ered about with the bolts and paid the shipping and duty you might as well go for a Quaife.

See 'sounds just like a Golf' adverts for further details.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
