i tried what you did and offered £200, but wouldnt sell it for that, so had to pay £225

a good thing was that i paid through paypal, and had forgot i already had money in there from selling stuff on ebay, so in the end only paid about £180 out of my pocket!

glad you managed to get one mate, even at £225 thats still a great price, considering, the others for sale on there are over £300

well after waiting 2 weeks for the clutch kit to arrive and then finding they hadnt sent all the right bolts with it, i eventually got this done!
Loving the conversion, much lighter and much more responsive clutch... no noise on idle either.

now onto the the next thing to get fixed! ha

Hi all dont mean to hijack the thread, but mine has started doing this VERY recently (so recently in fact that I can time it with when my car went in for MOT, they replaced the disks and pads. Is it possible I have air in the system as opposed to the clutch slipping?

I hope its air because could do without the extra cost

It cant be a coincidence that I had the brakes done and now the clutch is slipping...

No worries, well worth doing the G60/VR6 anyway especially if you are wanting more out of the car, mine went after a week of being remapped  :grin:
