Is there any go to place people in Essex use for machining 197 callipers to fit under 15s? Better yet does someone on here do it in exchange for my nudes?

Ahh that is a little big too far as I'm in south Essex, i might keep up the hunt for something closer but i will bear this in mind, thanks.

pt2 - So i had a little time left with the car so got to work on the rear cage. Like an idiot I bought the cage just before i stored the car and it came unpainted. I spent the best part of a day sanding all the surface rust off it but finally got it ready to paint. As you can see i am clearly...

Not sure i love the like function that has been added sometime in the years since i was an active CS member! People just like an leave. It's been a full year since i last posted and I've done basically nothing! Well, I've collected a lot of parts, but thats it. So main focus has been the rear...

Looks great! i need to put this on my to-do list. The suede sabelt wheel is lovely for all of 5 minutes before it starts to absorb all the grease from your hands. I want to use the same colours but get it trimmed over the top in leather!

That would be nice, thanks! I am based in Leigh-on-Sea but its currently a rolling shell so can transport it from a to b. Where abouts its this person located? It would now be: Rear cage base plates Seat rails Plate over handbrake hole

Sadly AW Motorworks werent interested :( I also had a generic mobile welder come over to have a look, and they werent interested either. Sounds like i need to find a motorsport specialist, ideally locally so i dont spend a fortune on transporting it the shell. I also don't really want to own a...

I am in a similar boat, I don't currently need a driveshaft but it sounds like it might be a logical step to just update the subframe to ph2 and not have to worry in the future. Couple of questions: 1. Does running the ph2 subframe physically increase the track? I assume it must if it impacts...

I was hoping i could find a already open thread to shoehorn my question into and this seems to work. What are the difference sizes required here? i know one is M10 but the other is much larger. I assume this will be the same as on the master cylinder which is what I'm asking for.

ahh, this might be the answer to my woes. I wonder if I'll be able to get my hands on just this lower part or if i will be pushed to get a whole new mount. I don't follow...

So spent the other weekend getting the engine out. Pretty straight forward when you've already stripped the PAS/AC and other bits off. Subframe definitely needs a bit of TLC at a later stage but due to space had to go straight back on after the engine came out. Then went and attached the...

Adding a pic and a vid of the problem. I wonder if i am missing a lower washer similar to the top to space out a bit?

Second time I've posted my Clio on here, it looked much better last time. I posted this on one of the Clio sport Facebook forums a while back, but now i am back on cliosport.net i thought I'd share my theory. And bare with me. Is anyone particularly knowledgeable about the first registered...

I guess what i wanted to understand was if people go to welding specialists, or motorsport specialists for their welding and if anyone had any recommendations in Essex. For reference, i have a cage, i am looking to get some cage mounts welded correctly. Also re the polybush sleeves...

Was not actually sure where to put this thread. Where to people tend to go for their welding work? (ideally in Essex). Things i was thinking was: Seat bars Roll cage Polybush sleeves I guess my concern is a lot of typical garages would not really understand what you are asking for.
