Aye Charlesworth for sure, if you're near the M6 you could go up that way I guess?

[Nils]

cheers mate, will give them a call in the morning, do they get the parts themselves, and is it oem parts or another brand,

[aido]

They can get either mate, usually they just get the OEM parts in mate but if you want Blueprint they should be able to get those too, you can even supply your own.

And they've worked on a LOT of IS' over the years, think it's fair to say they've installed more superchargers than any other garage or tuner in the UK :)

Just make sure to ask for Fat Simon when you call ;)

May jus get them 2 get the parts, am i rite 2 ask 2 cahange timing belt, tensioners, pulleys, waterpump, and possibly all the belts whilst im changing the timing belt jus 2 get it done and out the way? How much do u thk it will cost? hopefully cheaper than the dealers who thk theres no credit crunch still charging sky high prices.

[aido]

I don't know how muc it would cost for everything mate, you'd have to ask them for a price for all that, think Stav paid around the 200 mark for the cambelt?

You may as well get the idlers and tensioners done, I replaced the idler pulley but that was it on mine pulley wise as the rest are all ok :)
