stiffer than OEM, cheaper and easier to fit than stock mount. Thats about it... oh and its purple if that makes it any better?

Do you want a poweflex rear mount for that diff? I got one sitting on the shelf
Not sure in the cost of polishing, shouldn't be too bad. I'll let you know when I do!

Well...the camcover and IM is going for polishing...so it would be tempting! but in the next year i want to be doing some big upgrades so would be a bit of a waste!
ALSO!! that is the best of the 2 exhaust manifolds i have. The original had a fairly decent crack in it. it wasnt leaking but didnt look nice. This was a spare I had aquired but also has a small crack in but much less than the other. so that'll do for now!

I had missed this thread, and have just been scanning through. Nice Project Will.
I love a good S2 refurb. I could just do with some more time for my own.

I think you need to bead blast your wastegate and manifold now they look too dirty

Picked up many seals and gaskets from Pete at Quattro Corner this morning, so thanks Pete!!
Also have solid subframe bushes from Kev (Bambridge) so big thanks to you too!
I love my car...but my bank hates my car!

my plan is for a 2nd engine to 'tinker' with in 2012...so i think i'll put this one in and hope it hold outs
oil and water was clean anyway so i dont think there's any looming problems.

unless you need to i would leave it dude... IMHO no point needlessly stripping it and rebuilding unless you are going the whole hog so to speak with new guides, VSOS, exhaust valves, posh seat cut, skim etc etc, the list goes on, you've spent over a grand in no time...
