Thanks Big eck, yeh I was planning on getting them soon. I didn't know whether to get the 15mm or the 20 mm though, 20mm are quite expensive the one's I have looked at anyway, do you know if halfords ones are any good anyone?

Cheers :)

As said above, both those parts are good.
The fmic kit is used by quite a lot of people on here and logs were supposively good on them too.

the exhaust is quite easy to do, but you're best off doing part by part if you're on your own as the exhaust will be quite heavy to hold in place and get the bolts in at the same time.

I did mine on the driveway too...

Hey bad day today lol went to the garage again and was shut! so I tried another garage,got 2 knew tyres and asked for tracking,but the tracking bolts were so tight they couldn't adjust them,they said I gotta get them heated up and loose :s

Also found another little oil leak running down on the rear right side of the sump looking at it from the front :(

exhaust I hope ,should be here tomorrow and I orderd that front ebay intercooler :)

This weekend if nice weather:

Fitting exhaust

Adjusting front mount as its a bit slanted.

finishing battery in boot well and hopefully fitting a cold air feed.

draining oil so I can fit my new sump plug.

gonna try and locate my second oil leek,hopefully just a new gasket needed.

And get a price from Long Life for a 3" downpipe and de-cat pipe
