MINI MINI MINI UPDATE CONT: -
engine hasn't been installed back into car, and only 1 varex muffler has been installed.....the reason?......4 mechanics from HP/F called up sick today....
dont know what issues or problems they are having but it's not looking good .......jeremy from hp/f looked stressed and worried when i popped by today at 4pm...they got 1000000000+ cars they want to have ready by thursday...but with the drop out of there mechanics...they are struggling...
if i ever get the car back....after about 2-3 weeks.....the car will be returned back to hp/f for fluids drains, refill, check up, any arising issues experienced etc......
2/ ORC clutch kit + flywheel was being fitted until they found that the thrust bearing was totally F#%$%^....a new one was ordered via subaru, but the part isnt in stock and part wont arrive until tommorow morning..MAYBE?.....* i'm hoping it does....it's cutting it close to easter friday !!!!! * = due to time frame constraints, thrust bearing order delay from subaru and minor install issues with ORC clutch + flywheel, I made a decision with jeremys advice to purchase a organic HD exedy clutch kit which comes with a new thrust bearing and they just machined my flywheel and lighten it, so now I will be selling my ORC clutch kit + flywheel....
spoke to phat about the ORC clutch + flywheel issue, he assured me that there shouldn't be a problem with the fitments....hp/f could of installed it with more time and mucking around, but i just want the car back so i backed off and told them to get the exedy...kinda worked out cause i eventually got the thrust bearing aswell in the end....
which reminds me....I will soon be selling the following: -
1/ STI mufflers
2/ new 255 walbro fuel pump
3/ new ORC 400 light clutch kit + flywheel
4/ magnaflow mufflers - currently sold
5/ new genuine blue subaru seat pull over covers ( driver and passanger )
6/ still have the rear diffuser for sale aswell.... viewtopic.php?f=3&t=11644
