Ok, so i snapped my tensioner, £45 from john@evobreakers for a fix
but you know, while i was on the phone he had some brembo's and wheels that i wanted to upgrade too so figured i might aswell get those while i was at it
and then i was thinking while im at it i should really upgrade the suspension
but you know what why fit a new tensioner to an evo 4 engine anyway, surely the crank will only start walking at some point, so how about an Evo 8 engine while im at it.
but then im going to need a new clutch to handle extra power in the future so ok,
and while the box is out why not get the bearings recon'ed
i think im on a slippery slope guys
i did this a few years ago in my RS2k, started with a broken valve spring and ended up with a new ported head, new cams and throttle bodies
