  1. Yh it's fairly good, its a putty that sets like a hard rubberised plastic, may do the trick.
  2. Not a permanent solution but quite often I have made quite good plastic repairs with either sugru mouldable plastic or super glue and bicarbonate soda. Even if just a temporary fix.
  3. Thanks guys, I managed to get the tt autobox and torque converter for £130 w/ courier @ £60. It was a bargain. Ended up talking shop to seller whole eve, I'll get him on the forum. Cheers for all the input.
  4. I have a friend putting in a cd009, speedo is this issue now as speed sensor was on the auto. what is the solution for this?
  5. It's in Leeds, yeah I thinking about courier didn't know where to start finding someone to do large loads. Geezer can pallet the box so this may be the answer
  6. Yeah, I did think so. It comes with torque converter too. It was spotted by Dave. I am will to spend a little more to save a day's round trip for collection and diesel. What would you want for torque converter?
  7. Sorry my bad I have jspec not UK, UKs are on the whip.
  8. I have rear, calipers, disc and pads bought from whifbitz. Used under 1500 miles.
  9. Hi all, I am looking to build Dave Ps hybrid box and am on the scout for a tt. Auto box seen one for £130 but way up north I'm just having a check for something closer to home. London way. Happy to collect, will go to Leeds for other if no luck here. Best regards Chas
  10. What boxes does the exhaust system have, ie decat etc. Is it titanium / stainless all way through. What's the condition of the piping? Should think it would go with a bit more info. I am in the market for a new exhaust system. Cheers
  11. Really OK that gives a much larger selection when trying to pick up parts, I saw a set on the sale pages turns out they are side inlet though a back to being unsuitable.
  12. Yes didn't realise, also research says far to big for my setup too. Glws
  13. I've got an emanage ultimate, and 800cc have popped. I now feel that yeah they way too big, am I right?
  14. When replacing fuel injectors on the Na-t can you go too large for bhp or would they just run at a lower volume?
  15. Hi there I'm interested, if they are suitable. I am doing a nat build and know about uprating to 440cc is it possible too have too large injectors. I'm only looking for 400-450bhp. Just doing a bit of research now.
  16. Ah thanks, still got a lot to learn. Yeah I thought a ffim was needed until recent where I saw a few people talking about using oem. I thought it got in the way of something else, but I think its only the dizzy that does. I'm running a fmic so now I'm really boggled at where my piping is gonna go. I was going worry about that at a later stage. And a relief on the exhaust manifold.
  17. You guys talking about the XS power exhaust manifolds. Both me and dan8 have been looking at getting these. Apparently this is a new 2020 design, which I think has be reinforced. But bang for buck can't complain, I'm only looking for 400bhp. Heard some people running upto 600 on these.
  18. Yeah. Saves throwing a sump out too. I've ended up with three inlet manifolds as people have swapped out and handme downed. I hate throwing stuff out, I guess like many here I will do a garage clear and they'll all get listed up once the build is complete.
  19. Yes, but will use mine if I don't find one knocking about.
  20. Hi All, I am on the search for a gte oil pump, gte sump, exhaust manifold, holset hx35 turbo. I just thought I put it out here as every little helps. Best regards Chas
  21. Never came across that page before, nice link. Cheers
  22. I'm using a donor engine, so I can build as much as poss before implanting, not sure so my head is an unknown, although the engine turned by hand for on start, looks pretty clean little carbon build up on pistons and at top of stroke. The head was already removed and has been off for over a year now. I was going to get a quote on rebuilding the head Inc skim, don't know whether new valves or changing cams is worth it if I'm not going big big power. It means not utilising the fact that the stock parts are capable otherwise could have used any doner if I was going swap out cams etc. this is what evinx had to say on skimming. I dont know if there are any tell tale signs if the engine has over heated. I think I would like to leave rebuilding the head. Then go sick with the original engine when it's pulled out and I'm full of knowledge and experience. Eventually getting the original engine back for VIN no. to tally. Or just do it once, do it right and forgot about VIN numbers besides this ones being fiddled with more than macualay culkin. Funnily it was registered as an turbo when imported which had never been an issue when insuring i just say its not. Its pre-op finally freeing the turbo trapped in an NA body. I don't have a great history of the motor originally it was one owner since import in early 2000s, picked it up in Brighton don't think a member here. someone spent money putting the full jdl kit blended, full respray, two tone logo stitched seats. Oh jeez it had the gariest stick on dash veneer, more like venereal disease. A greeny gold metalic monstrosity, There is still a smallest bit of evidence because I never removed the veneer from glove box handle... a little postage stamp sized horror show.
  23. Yeah I saw your thread in the projects section. You still running a Na-t
  24. I had my spoiler made by charge auto styling based near Chelmsford. He has a few moulds of parts he has built for his motor. Was decently priced. Thought he may be able to do something with my jdl bumper one day. Many have said they like the jdl but just can't find them anymore.
