    ENGINE MOUNTS

    sparkz, never done a mk3 but its the same method for most, with it being a heavy engine its important to rock or run the engine before you torque them down , otherwise the work against each other hth

    ENGINE MOUNTS

    a piece of wood on a trolley jack under the sump, jack up the engine to take the load off the mounts , undo (one at a time) the mount , raise the jack til the engine clears the mount and remove , put the other mount in and tighten to the chassis/subframe , lower the engine , either rock the engine backwards and forwards a few times or run the engine and tighten to the specified torque , repeat on all three the most awkward one is the gearbox, just because of the position if you need the torques let me know and i'll dig them out for you to get to the bolts lower down i used two socket extension bars doubled up
  7. double-6s, beef curry boiled rice mate :-) you cant deny the 205 handled like a go kart

  10. triggermyson, it didnt read that way
  11. hmm or is it ? surely it lays the power down quicker without the engine slopping around in the bay if you feel better tell them , it really depends how daft they are , i told one insurance i had a legal aftermarket end can on my bike and they wanted an engineers report LOL
  12. got to admit they look damn fine but they arent cheap :-( demon tweeks do them if you want to price check
  13. i dont know what the "LOL " is all about mate so just ignore it, samco silicone hoses is what they are ?? tbh if they improve performance it will only be the performance of the cooling system , i dont think you would notice a difference on the pedal so to speak
