Re: Stuck immobilizer

I can see the advantages in f to tf subframes swap as f suspension is unforgiving,the air-conditioning is something I didn't know you could do very clever James is the f now ready for the road???

Stuck immobilizer

;) Hi there,I have a early 1996 mgf but I have only 1 fob and it's becoming almost impossible to lock unlock or even start as I think the fob has had it I've heard that generally the ECU, immobilizer,is generally very reliable but I don't want to spend £££ trying to reprogram new fobs might be cheap...

Re: Replacement Exhaust System

Yes I recently purchased a gt exhaust system, reasonably easy to fit the only problems we're the exhaust clamp needed reducing in size, redrilling and rebolting, slight increase in noise but not noticibly ,good quality exhaust
