    Where's all the old school boys gone?!

    Ive had a search through my emails, a bloke named Nathan Hogg bought it, he had plans to use it as a track car I think. She’s probably dead and buried at this stage

    YET another one

    Id say most gts and glanzas in Ireland are insured as 1.3 straight i dont know why as there is no difference in the premium, i pay the same for my gt as a 1.3 glxi. it is difficult to get a quote if you're under 21 if the car is declared as a turbo so that could be one reason for saying it's...

    Launching

    I never thought i'd say this but i miss my auto box, so easy to drive and it surprised a lot of auto bashers with just 135whp.

    Searious amount of oil from breather filter

    I removed the pipe connecting the pcv valve and blocked it at the inlet manifold but there's still oil coming out the breather, seems to be happening when under load, starting to think it may be rings, my dad thinks it could be a cracked block or head gasket related

    What diff is this?

    Thanks for all the help, the diff is sitting in the shed at the moment waiting to be refitted to another n/a box, is there anything that should be changed prior to doing this like barings or will it be alright? (there seems to be a lot of play in the barings pictured) What gear oil should i...
