@dazza I'm seeing my mechanic tomorrow and I'll ask him if he's up for doing it, so I'll be in touch. Cheers.


So much for keeping it standard!

Ive decided that Im going to down the route of replacing the chain, tensioner and cam adjuster

Take a listen of this guys and let me know what you all think?

Yeah mind is made up Daz, just need to source the parts now.

How long did it take you from start to finish would you say?

I f*cked it up mate. And had to wait for parts from the UK so it took about 10 days lol. If i had to do it again i think i could get it done in 4/5 hours. I'm not a mechanic so they could probably get it done a lot quicker.
