But the reverse to the end of my drive was great.

Are those the OSVW top mounts? I need to replace mine again so I was thinking of springing for those.

ColTech Classics
I might end up with a set of those at the rate I am going with mine. The weight of the 20v engine at the front is causing issues with my wheels not fitting.

Again shouldnt have as i cought the exhaust on a cats eye and it fell down and scraped.
Also the car is sat on the drive shaft, which has caused a massive/deep scoring.

Raised the car 20mm which gave me 10mm clearance on the driveshaft.

Also fixed the exhaust hanging down by making a bracket and fixing it to the fuel tank strap bolt, so thats well away from the floor now. Going to drive to work tomorrow and friday to get a few more miles on the engine.
I still need to sort out the water pump for the turbo as i dont think its working. (The pump works but unsure if the ignition live i used is duff/bad earth.)
Weekend should be fun :-)

Put my water pump on an ignition live and wired a bypass switch onto the main cooling fan to turn on when i want. (mainly for ques at shows).
Going to look at getting some sort of head unit at the weekend.
