Great job Gambit. It's great to see people doing a job properly (even if it was your mate ).

Oh no. He's far to anal for what we did, I don't think he liked what we did much. His approach would have been.

Buy all new hoses, clips and gaskets for that side of the engine.
+ UK spec manifold cover and new screws and do the job to factory.

Actually; he wouldn't have done it because the studs were'nt on the manifold........ Unless he decided to buy a UK spec manifold and gasket of course.

Then that would of ment turbo's.......

Nah he just wouldn't have done it.

Oh my God!
I just priced up the hoses I wanted to replace, and the word shock doesn't quite say it.



Bear in mind the £3.23 clip is x4, the £26.21 is x2 and the £2.26 is x4
How the hell do they justify £14.80 for a hose?

Total price for the parts I wanted after discount comes to £113.85
I know it's not a massive sum, but I grudge paying £26 for a hose 12cm long.

Is there anywhere who sells a complete kit?

Unfortunately not. Why do you need new clips, can you not reuse the old ones? Although they don't make up much of the overal price.
