I made a loop and attached a bolt to a gearbox mount. I then put the loop over the bolt and through the teeth on the flywheel. Had no problem removing it like that.

Just to help other people out with the flywheel removal. I got some washing line cord (steel wire with a plastic coating).

Thanks buddy, I was rubbing my head thinking what I had to hand. I thought my impact driver would be a bit savage for the job.

I would also be interested in the recommended rubber mounts to use.
Are you planning on adding power steering?

No going to keep it standard. I dont mind it being heavy

I guess 256mm would be safe, not sure about clearance with 280's.
Can anyone recommend a good set and where to get them from?. I have seen some Willwood 4 pot set-ups for around £550.
Cheers

Paid £500 for mine and although i haven't used mine in anger yet I haven't heard a bad word from anyone who has.
What sort of budget have you got?

I have about £600, are hi spec anygood?
They're very well thought of from all the research i did when i bought mine.The next step up is the 280mm kit details of which can be found HERE.
Can't see why the 256mm kit wouldn't be sufficient for the MK1 in all honesty though.

One thing I was unsure about, in the advert it says:
please state when ordering 76mm or 94mm lug centers?

Hmm can't remember off the top of my head what mine are mate. I am sure someone will be able to answer that for you mate. Failing that give the seller a quick tinkle
Have Mk1's got 76mm lug mounts?
