Got the LUK clutch kit today - opened up to check it and guess what ??

It's got Sachs stamped all over it !!!

By the way - it was 210 plus vat trade

Thats probably about right -its been ordered a couple of weeks now - in no rush though, car's miles off yet

Anyway, after much deliberation, check, double check and check what you gone over 3 times already, the day has ...

Hi Thanks for the welcome - I am based between Sheffield and Chesterfield, my affinity with 911s stems back to my 20s, when, back in 1982 I worked in the local Porsche bodyshop. fell in love with a 3.3 turbo, would never have 1 though, it hurts enough to be restoring a 68 short wheel base 911. i hav...

Hi folks
