  1. I'm still debating with myself about posting all the details but basically I've had an issue with something I bought, multiple excuses followed by saying it's been posted, item not turning up, sale then suddenly turning into a sale on behalf of Brian Manning, given another postage date, item still not turning up, asking what they're going to do about it then being ignored, asking for a refund and being ignored, then when I said I'd take it further threats and abuse. For people that appear to be reasonably well known and respected it's a S*** way to conduct business and I've essentially been ripped off. 'William' s real name is Greg, incidentally 

    I know it's Facebook and beware, but for all the people that talk these guys up they evidently can't be trusted either. Just a heads up.

    If you have a seat belt out of the car often they won't unwind unless you position it upright at the same angle it would be in the car. I believe this is so that in a rollover you don't fall down to the roof after the vehicle stops.

    You'd be right on that count, there's a ball bearing that acts on an arm which locks it, same thing that causes it to lock if you yank on it quickly. This one wasn't unspooling no matter what I did so I had to open it up and remove the bearing and the arm it acted on.

    I'm running motul 4100 15w50 for the engine, its a motorbike oil, cheaper than 5100 but same viscosity and I've never had an issue with it (i think there was something else that made it good for a car too, some additive thats in it???)

     

    Motorcycle oils have no friction modifiers in them as they run wet clutches bathed in engine oil and the modifiers will ruin them. You're far better off running a proper automotive oil.

  4. Exedy I believe manufacture the OEM clutches. Buying off partsouq is silly IMO. Should be able to get an FJK-7123HD for around 650 including GST at trade as D1 says. Having an unnecessarily heavy clutch is NOT a positive thing, puts extra strain on the trans and is a pain to drive. A standard HD clutch should handle somewhat above 200kw okay.
