Job done. Excellent write up was of great help (never dared before). Took about 2 hours (although had a few tea's in between ;-) ). For those who dare not be brave and try it. Just take your time. Two things I would add : Don't overtighten the spark plugs. Use a piece of thick cotton/string to loop ...

Great, helps loads. Thanks.

I'll probably stay with the default springs though.

Anti-roll bars are a really great upgrade, have h&r on mine.

Had a look round today while doing the spark plugs, seen the bolts for the inlets.

It is simply a case of removing the top end stuff and installing them ?
any sealant required ?

Speedo - What could be causing this problem.........

I have a problem with my speedo, it's reading wrong :(

Had a new sensor on the gbox but no improvement.

What else could it be ?

P.S. Now urgent as next door neighbour is part of community speed watch :-)

Yep cambelt kit, rollers,tensioners, water pump,gasket, thermostat.

On the spacers I'll wait till I've recovered from the cambelt,

Snub Mount and Phoelinetic spacers fitting ?

Hey guys what's involved in fitting the above ?

i.e. How easy and what has to come off to achieve.

I'm about to get the cambelt done so wondered if this was the time to do a snub mount.

Also was going to order phoelinetics at the same time
but didn't want a huge labour bill to fit ?

Thanks.

Spark plug fitting ?

Can anyone please tell me if there are any other parts apart from the plastic covers I need to remove to fit a new set of spark plugs
e.g. air mass meter, air filter box lid ?

All advice and wisdom welcome, going to start it tomorrow morning come rain or shine :D
