I'll have to check tomorrow on price etc but I'd put the number up before so it should be correct!

Well if you read the thread ....... jimmy was happy with just the H4 bulb upgrade. :wink:

VR6 pads are 3mm thicker apparently.

Still running two belts, it's a double pulley but solid without the bearing, but it's..... Oh So Much Quieter! :lol: 8)

9a pulley fits straight on the noise reduction is simply glorious!!!! You can put a solid water pump pulley Part.no. V027 121 031 on any 4 cyl engine, it works and I've had no problems in 2 years on my KR 8) Edit: Thinking about it I have had some squeakings recently, and I've just realised i hadn't read the previous post correctly - got me going now. I think I stitched meself up....... :scratch: :gag:

That one in the pic doesn't look mint at all you can see white bits on the red that ain't camera flash etc. :roll: Joke price

You have the Manual?

That's a superb find, especially if you're happy to do it yourself!! Top work! 8)

Could just be the locking mech is sticky, lashings of WD40 or similar and some excercising may help. You can undo the two big bolts holding the lock to the door and partially remove it enough to get a good squirt in there.

No joy from Talk Audio mate :(

I was gonna say I just ordered a 90amp alternator through B&B Components in Maidstone and all I had to do was swap the pulley.

Uprated bulbs: Phillps Vs Osram, opinions required.

Extreme +80% H4s and Nightbreaker +90% H3s, award winners in Autotest at the time. Very pleased, have an old upgraded loom and recently fitted Lamin-X in the Optic Blue flavour which really whitens the light output further 8) 8) 8) -

Modding late sunroof motor to fit early frame
colinstubbs replied to colinstubbs's topic in Exterior
I'll add it to my list!! I'll need to run it through in my head a few times to make sure I don't miss anything!! -
Can he trust the gauge????? I seem to get about a 10 deg difference between Coolant (lower) and Oil (higher) temps. Does sound like a problem though.

What exactly is required for that then VR6? I should be able to sort something :D Could do with some better pics but i can always 'whip it out' and snap some more. :camp: :lol: -
Which lamin-x colour to match tinted light covers
colinstubbs replied to ANDREW 30's topic in Exterior
It's a legal and above board, there are regulations for tinting which this stuff meets, but I've gone for the blue on the headlamps (which still looks a bit weird :lol: ) because it really does improve the colour for night driving 8) 8) -
Modding late sunroof motor to fit early frame
colinstubbs replied to colinstubbs's topic in Exterior
I never did confirm it but this all worked a treat and still does!! :lol: 8) -
Yeah the later sunny switch etc is a good one to change, you can do it with just a late motor and cover/switch/light unit and loom but you have to chop the motor a bit or go the whole late roof assembly. I've had no roof issues so just chopped the motor, still works a treat - can put up some pics later if you like or i'll find my old thread! Edit HERE it is 8) Edit: You'll also need a later bit of trim to go around the sunroof aperture as the motor cover is a slightly different design - see below! Late cover - early trim!

Clicky HERE for pics of switch internals, mind the springs!! 8)

Why would you want a wafer-thin skinned euro/jap box with dodgy brakes and sticky electronic throttles!! :camp: 193k and loving it, daily driver for the last 12 years.
