        Are all rocking horses constipated then if they've all got a major backlog

        Apparently they make the RS2ARBS to order so I guess they wait until they've got sufficient demand for a whole batch? They must have plenty from here if nothing else?

            REMOVE IT

            It totals about 28 kilos of excess baggage and nearly all of that weight is in front of the front axle!

            If you work on your own car, you will have orgasms just how much easier the car becomes to work on (if you put it in a garage to have work, then who cares yeah!!)

            Then you can use the AC button on the dash as a manual rad fan colling switch, as when ever the AC is switched on, speed 1 on the electric fan comes in, so if you're stuck in traffice, hit the AC button to keep her cool under bonnet.

            Win win.

                Well if you guys like sitting in puddles of your own sweat against the leather, that's your own kinky look out! I'm going to persevere with getting mine working.

                      The leather can get a bit warm in the summer. Won't be a problem this year though as I've got my spanking RS4 seats to go in

                        ...to balance that lot out, you'd need 56kg in the back!

                        (Unscientific but approximately right)

                        Lose 28kg off the front or add 56kg in the back?

                        Hmmm... Supposing you balance yours by adding 56kg, and I do it by losing 28kg, that's a net improvement of 84kg for me, with the same balance!

                        I know which one I'll be choosing!

                                Not quite, it doesnt use a V-belt so the pulley is different and the fittings on the back are a slightly different size. Can be fitted though, newsh has done it using some ABY pipework.
