  1. Cheers. Sod it think I'll try them. Jabba wouldnt sell anything thats gonna tarnish there good name... I hope lol
  2. http://www.jabbasport.com/store/index.php?app=gbu0&ns=prodshow&ref=461380 I'm rebuilding my engine and was gonna get this set from jabba for the head as I was gonna change valve stem seals for peace of mind.
  3. Dam forgot about the ratios. Looks like its back to the 5speed diesel plan.
  4. Would a galaxy vr6 6speed box fit the vrs 1.8t????
  5. Take them off and get them powder coated. Boom looks good and lasts, done all of mine in kawi green.
  6. i understand the port and polish but lost with the angle valve job. where's google lol
  7. Hey peeps. putting a few bit on car (mk1 occy vrs) and hopefully when finished will hit the 280-300 bhp mark. My questions are, i'm putting better con rods in a doner engine im building but wondering about the head. I'm gonna put new oil stem seals in head but will i need to uprate anything else in the head for that power? The other thing is, after searching i realise for this power 6 speed is not worth the hassle. But my gearbox is leaking oil and needs replaced. So was thinking of 5 speed diesel box as i understand theyre stronger but which one or stick with standard vrs as can get the box from the car im getting engine from. Long winded but that is all.
  8. I'm only doing gearing oil coz I've had the car since it was 11months old ( 05reg) & never changed box oil. I do engine every year and plugs and fuel filter aswel. Box oil doesn't need changed as often.
  9. I'm doing gearbox oil change this fri and engine oil aswel and i'm gonna put motul 3000v in bit costly at £28 for two litres but dam good oil. No doubt some one will have a negative comment to make but the car gets driven hard and it tuned to its full potential by awesome ( standard internals and turbo but all the intercooler work and other bits are done)
  10. Don't worry I'm not either but they ook better than the sills after a local garage bent mine.
  11. Bit awkward to upload off phone. If I get chance I'll put some up later.
  12. Main dealer. I'll see if got any more pics on my phone.
  13. I would I think they're a rocco part and mine was around £7
