well looking at it it's not a bad time for it to happen,yes i would rather it didn't but i now have the se3 so im still happy.
i blame Netwalker as he was thinking of having it and i said to him it's a good runner and that ive never had any probles with it.
so in a way im glad it's gone pop on me and not him

vinny the oil pump runs off of the crank shaft, get hold of a tensioner and the car should be ok, and im sure i will be able to come down and help you fit it, the only thing that you would of done is over heated the engine a little
