That's a pretty good discount. Why is the oil so expensive?

Yeh mine is as well, progress is slow for reasons detailed on my thread now.

Remind me, how do your brake ducts clear your intercooler piping in the wheel well? Mine run right where I'm going to need to run my piping and I'm trying to work out how best to route them so that nothing rubs or catches.

Cheers. Yeh iv no chance, my IC pipe sits much higher than yours, right up against the arb. Only hope will be to run it under but that's guna put it very low, bit of a risk without an undertray

This 1 piccy malarky is annoying...im a paying tapatalk vip dont you know...
I usaully write some badly spelt grammer and stick a load of piccy to show what i meant
Anyways. Nd serviced. Quite straightforward. Ally undercover, 8 or 9 12mm bolts reveal a steel sump with an ally key drain plug and oil filter vertically mounted to the side...alot easier than a mk1 2.
I oiled the bolts and sump to stop corrosion. 4.3l of special ow20. Said Porsche in the bumpf.
Air filter easy 30 secs in n out.
Quick drive quite happy, i think the airfilter was blocked. Much more fun drive today. No piccies.

Mk1. New 2.75 air duct in. View attachment 61151

Otherside done, much the same.
Annoyingly this side after pressuring calipers, 1 side the pistons return everso slightly more than other..so that pad when wiggled rattles a tad.. strange.
