Can anyone out there recomend a machine shop for getting a flywheel skimed

Looking for one in the south west area of Wales, am based in Llanybydder,

Also looking into changing my head gaskets while the lumps out, as the dealer i bought the car from was suppersed to have done them, but im thinking may be not!! still getting the cream in the oil filler neck, i've seen that the STi ones come in 1mm and 1.6mm, i dont plan on extream tuning, so would the 1mm ones be the ones to go for?

Llanybydder would be 5miles south of Lampeter and 18miles north of Carmarthen.

If you have no luck, I'm sure API will do one mail order on a exchange basis.

I used to live in Llanybydder, I have the noisy DBM classic that used to be parked in the layby near the spar shop. I now live over at Rhydowen

Silver classic will be Wesley and yes he is a complete idiot, I've never spoken to him but I'd love to meet the prat so I can give him a peice of my mind. I used to live in llannewnen, He used to go past my house at 100 Mph+ and we lived in a 30 limit, not good when kids are playing nearby.
