Ian (soundrediscover's) old car

if not I will strip for some bits but most will be weighed in

Sadly last week my car lunched its turbo charger - I spent about 20 hours removing it and installing a replacement only to discover that this turbo is also fecked - leaking O seals inside the compressor - cost me £60 grrrrrr... :evil: oh well, you gets what you pays for. The MOT is up next month and...

Have been very tempted by this but the LPG tank needs to be a donut for the space and I can't afford to buy the car AND replace the tank!

The old one fitted sans bracket though

A few of the Autoshitters are meeting at Carter Bar on Sunday 3rd June. For those of you who don't know where it is Carter Bar is the point the A68 crosses the Anglo-Scottish border. The idea is to do a few miles on a run out and meet somewhere for a blether and pint/coffee...you are very welcome to...

Does anyone have one of these before I result to a bodge...the stopper goes on the inside of the c pillar/wheel arch and pushes the seat back against the catch loop to ensure it doesn't rattle...it is rattling and driving me maaaaad!

oioi, I'm after the aircon bits for a late 820 - all the 'invisible bits' ie heat exchange, motors etc are in situ all that is missing is the compressor and piping too and from and possibly that long tall storage cylinder thingy - I also need whatever brackets and bolts bolt the compressor to the T ...

Rich

thats the one!

yup - not particular what type of car it comes from as long as it fits!

update... Well, 4 hours of scrubbing on Saturday afternoon and the leather has been GLIPTONED! - it could take another dose of the cream which I might do tomorrow evening - amazed at how the creases and grime have come out. I've been busy ordering various parts for the car and in the last few days h...

Hi all, I've snapped a bolt on my pisspoor condition flexi throttle mount - does anyone have one in reasonable condition - I could get one from Rimmers but they clock in at 45 quid!

cheers

Scoots

cheers chris - can you let me know how much you would want for those -

UPDATE - I have replaced the gear gaiter and knob with reasonable quality generic examples from ebay - made a hell of a difference already!
