think i'll start a charity - Mod my car!!

Payments to me please; no donation is too large  :grin: :laugh: :laugh:

 :grin:  :laugh:  yeah £900 for a clutch is savage  :cry:

thats one word for it!!  :laugh: :laugh:  did you make any further enquires about the clutch package i sent you?

I havent mate i need to email mike, Looks a good deal to me. I did ask my mechanic and he said its not a prob for him to sort for me  :wink:

lucky bar steward; no fecker near me wants to fit my clutch!! Mate at work and his mate with a garage have offered to do it for me; hoping to have a look at it shortly as to whether or not they're feeling brave enough to tackle the job lol

My mechanic said he has done a 150 derv, Said it wasnt too bad  :huh:
Yeah he said to do the flywheel aswell (as you said) down pipe and sport cat next me thinks  :smiley:
