    Meet at Andy's Sunday Dec 28th

    All welcome, food and drink providied all I ask in return is help fitting a new cambelt, water pump, timing it all up and then going for a celebratory spin.

    (Might also have an interior, dash clocks and aieral too )

    cause if i ever want to put my sport interior back in, i need to lay my hands on some front subframes as the ones i had on the sport seats are gone as i needed to modifiy them for using the buckets with them. so rather than wait until that time, if i can have the subframes/ pretentioners i'll be ready. obviously i will give you a few quid for your trouble.

    shouldnt be different to what you got as they are recaros too. the part that keeps them upright is on the seat base, not the subframe. the subframe bolts to the underside of the seat base with 4 13mm bolts.

    well things didnt go as well as planned. water pump changed and when removing the old one, we could see why it was making so much noise. the barring in it had collapesed big time! so new belt on, and tensioner as the old one was a bit seized so changed now put it all back together but then it wouldnt start. so dont really know what is wrong but it got very cold, very dark, very quick so left it there and went home.

    cheers to adam for showing up but i forgot the subframes off you dude.
