I'm with Dirk on this one, it should make zero difference. I suspect that reason you saw coiled up pipes is because he simply brought them the same...

Gathering and learning as much info about this car as I can . Still in Thailand until end of this month then will spend alot if time in the garage...

Thanks Steve Sent from my CPH1819 using Tapatalk

Not at all man, every day is a school day. I didn't know about pilot bearings and your post pointed me in the right direction. I pinged Subarugears...

I like the wheels. I am guessing that they are Porsche 5x130 PCD, because you can get those hubs off the shelf and VW owners love Porsche DNA. ...

Good to hear man :cool1:

I have a phone number for Mr Lim if you are interested, I have a set of Noreca lights, with shipping & taxes they were quite a hit.

Thanks Dirk! :thumbup:

I was concerned about that when I had my first MOT on the Avante, so I actually put the Haynes manual in the car with a post it note on the page just...

Thanks Mark. I've been using a local garage which only does MOT's (ie no repairs) for several years, so they know me and hopefully when the time...

Had this issue before with the nova and a jag. The testers told me there was movement, but when I said, “ There’s meant to be movement “ they back...

Hi Lauren, how can you tell it is a 74/75 and not an earlier Southampton made kit?

Excellent news! Well done. Would be great to see a wee video when you fire it up. :thumbup:

I've seen off road build projects where the builder cut both lines the same length and rolled the excess in a coil to keep it tidy. Don't know if its...

After 12 years the Sterling has a heart! Had a small hangup getting the engine installed but a bit of wire brushing and antiseize on the input shaft...

Had hoped to get to the 'shed' today but wife's Corsa failed ITV yesterday so need to sort that out, same problem as in 2014 fail with high emissions...

One of our members with the Yellow Avante did this years ago (no not Dirk), the other one...Phil's It did look well finished, he bonded the...

I think the reality is that so many of the cars sold recently (with the exception of Jim's and Marks) look fine on the surface, but would likely need...

Extremely basic, so lots of £'s to complete .... but it's already got a couple of bids

You could be right Dirk. I've not yet got to the hydraulics in my resto but from memory (long time ago!) my roof went up and down evenly without any...

There's an Advante on there as well...

I understand the theory in what you are saying but I think it is wrong:giveup: once the system is full the pump is moving the same amount of oil in...

Absolutely love it - when was the last time you saw a complete ADD Mk1? The only item(s) missing appear to be the dash pods - and the seats. I...

Great find! An almost complete ADD Mk1 with sunroof canopy, circa 1974/75. Even the rear light bar is there. Windscreen would need to be replaced...

Another reason I don't like hydraulics, The fluid will take the path of least resistance. The drivers side pipes are almost twice as long as the...

I knew a bloke back in Australia they called tripod, I guess he was good at holding a camera still:whistling::whistling::whistling:

G'day Steve, Apologies if I am teaching you to suck eggs. The bearing in the flywheel is there to support the gearbox input shaft, only used when...

The DVLA has it on record as a 1972 Volkswagen with a 1600cc engine, date of first registration August 1972 and date of last V5C issued 16 September...
