Big difference between this and the 1.6. No plans yet. just put front lower strut brace on and rear antiroll bar

Cambelt done. timing was out. cambelt was relatively new as said by previous owner but the tensioner was on its last legs. The bearings in the roller also gone. started it up and it sounds perfect.

Had a proper look over and all it needs is an antiroll bar bush

the front coilovers are siezed on the adjuster so i can't raise the car. if anyone can offer any advice on this it would be great. they're koni's. thanks

Let some WD40 soak in, it should help free it up.

Looking forward to better pics
