Cant you just fit a new olive/fibre washer to the water pipe that has let go?


Did you get any pictures of your car in action?

A local company to me run trackdays at various airfields, althought a cone circuit still quality and no chance i ended up in tyres! www.motorsport-events.com i paid 99 pound for a whole day of unlimited track and additional £10 for passengers or £20.00 for drivers. I use there Keevil venue as 10 mins drive down road for me.

Gonna have to have a look at turbo as seems to becoming from exhaust impeller housing not the the water pipe connection.

Please bear in mind i only paid a oner for her and have spent about another 250 to get her on track!! By far the cheapest car there but by no means the slowest.........was running with the lotus elise's and vx220's . The Honda Nsx only just got by me as well........
