Ive had no problems though, aint been pulled, no ones flashed their lights at me when there driving the opposite direction etc.

I had no issues when I had them fitted in mine either, but I did keep a spare set of halogens in the boot just incase ;).

Yes, a f**king ****e load too
Easily added up wayyy over £600, and i still need some other bits :roll: :(
Occasionally see 2nd hand tb kits come up for around £800, which would have suited the baby engine fine, oh well lol
Plus the xe is "unknown" as such, it may not even run lol. Whereas i know the current engine is in great condition, and 100% reliable. Would be an ideal base to fit tb's to

The only way to do a cheap xe is buy a £200 engine and chuck it straight in as it is. Rebuild bits aint the cheapest of things.


Ernie-Spot on mate, cheers for that. Its here waiting to come back to you :D

Dan-I always carry a few spare bulbs :)

:confused: never knew why you were rebuilding it anyway tbh mate :wtf:

throw it in, if it works, then bonus, if not, then rebuild it :thumb:

thats what i did, and i'm still going strong *touches wood* ohh errrr lol

Aye, just got it all rebuilt back up this weekend(new top and bottom end gasket sets, valves relapped, new cambelt/rollers etc). Its ready go in now, apart from a crank sensor, and a sump.

I should of done what you did too! As its pissing about changing clutches/flys/gaskets etc thats took the cash from my tb kit fund :(

totally mate, ahhh well - as you say, its done now :) and at least its piece of mind for ya!

ETA still on for November 9th @ Donny with me?

Deffo mate, want to book it asap but not liking the £180 price tag lol
Will get it booked though :)

engine looking good ad, now get it bloody fitted! P.s won't need my crank sensor, do you want it, do you have an old one i can use to plug my block?

Yup i have an old one :D
Do you have a lambda too? (i have a lambda with cut wires i can swap with yours, if you dont need the lambda...) ?

yep it's still in the front pipe! Won't need it so you can have it. Bring be yours so i can use it as a bung/stop, and we'll swop.

i have cranksensor and lambda sensor you canhave mate foc
