£80 goods m8! I havent really seen that many people on here who have the janspeed bt i think they are a good make arent they?

Coonper

Well they are a well established company with a good reputation. How bad can they be??

will be fine and for £80 its a bargin!

Check it over well though. From memory there are steel ones as well that don't last as long as the Stainless ones. Make sure there aren't any dents or holes and if thats okay hand over your wedge

I cant see a problem, their all manufactured to do a job plus like said b4, £80 is a bargin! although kam, are some of the steel ones not better even though the life span isnt as long?

I'll buy it from you for 85? lol

I wouldn't have thought you would need to move your oil filter on a mk2 if the oil filter on a mk1 was in the way.

Well Fingers Crossed! Where is the filter on a mk1? I thought the mk1 filter was out of the way of the manifold altogether?

see in the picture where it comes from the block and goes up and to the left to the oil filter on a mk2, that it iteslf on the block is where it is on a mk1. If thats a good way to describe it like.

But if you think about it logically, it should fit your mk2 if it never fit a mk1.

Coonper

2nd December 2007, 22:05

That kinda makes sense... Lol
Still not 100% though.

More than likely you will need to move the oil filter but i dont know why the oil filter was in the way on a mk1?

Coonper

Thats exactly what i thought!

Surely if i move the filter it will be in the same place as the mk1 and therefore wont fit!!:panic:

AliC

3rd December 2007, 09:33

lol, Did the guy definatly have a mk1 or did he mean that he had bought a mk1 manifold? Suppose the only way to find out it to take it off, bt dnt worry you'l get it on, where there is a will theres a way!

Coonper

3rd December 2007, 10:21

Well the guy had a 90bhp mk1. He bought the manifold off ebay and it was advertised as a mk1 fitment, however he tried to fit and it wouldnt fit cus the oil filter was in the way, so he now believes its for a mk2...

AliC

3rd December 2007, 11:26

In that case you shouldnt have a problem fitting it then! Let me know anyway how you get on with it?

thats the manifold and where ur oil filter is situated much love

Richie2104VTR

3rd December 2007, 21:33

I can understand that it could be designed for a mk2, so it catches on mk1 oil filter, as its in a different position. But i thought most manifolds were the type of if it fits a mk2 it'll fit a mk1 aswell!

vtrlogan

3rd December 2007, 21:34

Lol. i am confused to. is it the mark 1 vtr's that have to move oil filter or is it the mark 2's? realyl confused.

Richie2104VTR

3rd December 2007, 21:37

Its the mk2's that you have to move the oil filter mate!

Coonper

Pics are on the 1st page suvvysaxo. What do you think to it??

I think its MK2's that have to move the filter. Thats why i dont understand it not fitting the mk1!!

Can anyone confirm if it will fit?!?!?!

AliC

3rd December 2007, 21:51

lol confused.com! I think its a mk2 tbh!

Richie2104VTR

3rd December 2007, 21:54

Think the only way to find out if it defo fits is to fit it. Or you could measure it up and see if it looks as though it would clear the filter or not!

Coonper

3rd December 2007, 21:55

lol confused.com! I think its a mk2 tbh!

Haha!!! Im gonna try and fit it at the weekend so i'll let you know how i get on! Just hoping it fits!!:panic:

If it doesnt fit i'll just ebay it. Should get a fair whack for it as it is brand new with heat wrap!!!
