Guess I\'m lucky in that respect, as theres I have free access to one at the place I work.

Here is another picture of some parts I took to work a few weeks ago (see attached picture).

They look so good & it hardly takes a few minutes to go from thick dirt to brand new looking....

It\'s gonna be fiddly getting the downpipe back on with the Y pipe on when the engine\'s in the car. If i were you i would remove the Ypipe, fit the engine in the car, fit downpipe, then fit Y pipe, OR fit dp first then fit engine in car. Good work btw. How come you have 3 thermostat/waterpump housings?

Hi Robbie RX-7

Never had any problems fitting the downpipe back on with the Y pipe on.

I usually fit the downpipe..

Than the smaller diameter exhaust gas re-circulation (thinggy) pipe...

The clutch...

Then install into car.
(leaving power steering pump off until I re-fit the Air Con).

Easy (ish)
