Yeah mate, get it done... best to do it now while it's all off... and i'm sure i've seen one one here for sale recently, in the mounts and everything.
You got a 1.1 box??? lol, that'll go boom soon enough, just hope you've got recovery card sorted! lol.
Were moving to a new house next week... new place has a massive garage so i'll be doing a few more bit's to ours... want to get a machine polisher or buffing disk for my drill and try and improve the paint a bit, plus get the bodykit refitted so it all looks nice for FCS.

read up a big thread about and a lot of people are running them and have been trouble free after 15k + the box i'm putting on hasn't even touched 40,000 yet
supposedly good lower ratios might make it a bit more fun aswell lol

I see, a bit like the 1.4 xsi boxes, the ratios in them are meant to be awesome when coupled to the 8 and 16 valve lumps. Should be good round the track then You going to FCS this year? take it on there.

Cool. we'll try and get a convoy from manc over to the M1 to meet with the others if your going the night before. Were going to the main sax-p hotel (Oadby) so will probably meet up with the rest of the lads coming down from the north and head down the M1. I NEED to get mine on too. got to try and find some good disks and pads, then get them on. Will get them sorted once were in the new place and i can rip the front end apart... going to rebush the wishbones while i'm at it i reckon.

well when i change gear the car no longer gives me whiplash haha. No seriously it really does stiffen everything up and just feels 100 times better! you get vibration on tick over and at low revs like when setting off etc.. Well worth it.
