and the latest. clutch has been slipping for the past 3 months it loves it. ordered from awesome the ecs stage 1 kit which contains the Sachs VR6 clutch and ECS Lightweight 14lbs single mass flywheel. Hope to fit that in a couple of weeks at work along with a new engine mount under the airbox.

found a coolant leak onto the gearbox. found it to be from where the coolant temp sensor housing joins the clyinder head. it was the o-ring inside that was the problem. was just 2 alan key bolts, and 1.50 for a new o-ring done in 10 minutes. wooo

haven't fitted the clutch and flywheel yet. deciding about a gearbox possibly a re-build. going to be changing the oil from synthetic back to mineral to see if this helps.

fitting lightweight g60 14lbs ecs flywheel and sachs vr6 clutch tomorrow. slipping again had enough.
