i think your spot on in what you are doing,

1st off get the sump welded (as you are )

full her up with oil and other fluids

and see if she will try fire up.

seem to have been cared for at some point tho, i have my fingers crossed for you i really hope it all goes well.

Well I spoke to a1 rally sport to day they said they fitted the rs clutch and flywheel

And they also said it has a bigger turbo on it from wat they saw they didn't fit it so I need to get a pic up

Rite want to order oil Fuchs Titan pro s 5 w 40 called unipart they said 36 pound for 10 liters rite that's to cheap in my eyes they said it will come In Unipart bottles because Fuchs surply the oil unipart re label it now does any one no if this is correct

well took the sump of to day and got it welded up my mate make manifolds for blue sprit and graham goody and baffel kits for cosworths so when i say he can weld he is the nuts gave him my sump he said the alloy it is made out of is well
so he plated it for stuck a nice plate over the crack and welded around it for now ill try and get a gud second hand one but for now its fine

to be fair the car was absolute pain becuse it was lowered on thos wolf spring didnt look low but i strugeled to get it on my ramp

took pics of the turbo aswell im not sure if its a rs one but it does look like it has got new gaskets and its been off so mite just be a hybrid really

when i took the sump of had a gud look at the old girls gutts and well she is spotless there was a bit of oil in and around and there was oil in the cooler

dnt think the opil cooler is a rs one even tho there was a bill in there for one but hay ho i surpose















other pictuers are just random sorry about the quality its a i phone its


can any one help to tell me wat exhaust is on it i dnt have a clue cany fine a name on it at all



o ya wat is this thing that is one the drivers side wishbone
