Is there a drought of SX parts happening soon? Because reading this thread on the forum is like listening to kiddies in the playground fighting over something that doesn't even belong to them...

The reason I want the front cam cover is the spare motor I have has a damaged cam cover.

Ah! cool man! mine still looks ok...

Just want to do the tappet covers...

If I polish my turbo manifold, will i get a bit better performance? and what do you think about that turbo? the blades look stuffed but it should work.... right?

The manifold is cast iron so it is very hard, I have heard of guys polishing them but not sure on the results. I would take the turbo if money wasnt so tight, R250 or so for a turbo is a bargin.

I got the bad news today that its a main bearing causing the rattle.

Now I have to replace the engine coz fixing it will cost just as much and the engine is already damaged!
