Hi Mark, for my iva (3 years ago) I was told that fitting the belts through the seat meant that the seats became "structural" so I just put them around the shoulder with no probs. Photo taken just after iva

last year I fitted a shortened sump but on very heavy braking the oil light briefly lights. I dont want to weld any aluminium in but could make up steel baffle & attach/weld it to small baffle already there. Whats the best baffle design to use. photos of sump as it is now

for my iva I rolled up a few of the curly stainless scourers in some chicken wire (was about 9" long) then stuffed it down the pipe before the silencer (GBS one with no cat) passed no probs. After 200 miles it had all been blown out!!!

Hi Steve, wont be able to make it due to work cheers Paul

Hi Artie I am away for weekend in van, have a good run.

gumtree for me, sold a car within an hour & caravan in 3 days

well done Andy :good: Did you drive it to IVA or trailer??

Missed it due to shifts again !!!!!!

hi yes the brushes included, I wasn't sure if a new reg would fix it but at that price it was worth a try

cheers for info Iain- yes iam doing the clucth, too many people have said I was daft not to. may need to use the aligining tool tip as fitters at work are too busy putting new production lines in. front cmember not too bad, mot no probs just needed front spring

picked up box from scrappie & ordered clutch bits. hopefully can get a centring tool made at work. never changed box or clutch before, any hints/tips would be appreciated cheers Paul so many other things to sort, no time to get out in the zero !!!!!!!!

iam gonna try & change the gbox myself, see if the local scrappies have any in never done one before so what hints tips can u give cheers Paul

just drained a small amount of week old gbox oil into glass and it looks very metallicy, put a small magnet in & oil makes patterns around magnet also can feel small bits in bottom of glass. Iam guessing need another box ???

thanks for all info been surfing allnight to try & find answers, looks like it might be a replacement box

yes 75w 80 is the specified oil & there is a whining noise when driving (could only get into 1st & 2nd) cheers

no leaks from any where on clutch & piston pushes lever arm any check/tests i can do to diagnose the problem keep the info coming cheers Paul

the oil I used is same spec as nissan xz oil as per manual, any idea what grade I should try cheers Paul

yes took drain plug but it was clean

my son has an almera 2001 1.5 petrol with manual gearbox/hydraulic clutch. couple of weeks ago when car was moving at about 10mph and engaging 1st gear there was a noise as if the gbox teeth were "just" grinding together. All fine when stopped & engaging 1st, all other gears ok. after doin a bit of googling I changed the gbox oil (used Halfords Gear Oil EP 75W/80 GL-4) made no difference. a week after changing oil, gear selection is now very difficult in all gears, both with engine off and when running. also when in neutral with engine running there is a whirring/wineing noise that dissappears when dipping the clutch. I have also bled the clutch & it made no difference anyone got any ideas what it could be???? thanks in advance Paul :(
