Was a shame about the abysmal weather for qually wasn't pleasant at all! And considering the biblical weather on t he friday's days testing it was unfortunate and typical English weather at its finest! unpredictable and typically s**t!!
Then to top it off the pesky pipe blowing from a...
Had a look on TSL timings site and couldn't find Cadwell on there, all the other events seemed to be there.
What sort of times were seen for a clio around Cadwell mate? Out of curiosity.
Was an awesome day at Cadwell with @Apg100 amd miraculously dried out in the afternoon even though it was...
Keeping the rear top mounts close to my chest! Tehehehe nah only joking! I never got them finished in the end mate. Still need some more work on the cage to finish it all off.
I'd probably recommend somewhere like JJC race and rally with the code eBay5 customer service is great there. It took me nearly 4 weeks to get my harnesses form demon tweeks!
Cheers buddy!! :)
I bought mine from demon thieves as I can get them with a bit of discount on them. I wouldn't normally go there as the prices are usually a little high. Can't remember the exact price i paid for them in the end, think it worked out to VAT free mate. If I could pass on the...
Sadly not mate! That was the plan! To have it all on the car for Rockingham but I just don't have the time and money to get the last few little bits together I need to get it all on in time.
Haha that's the dream Andrew! One day I hope!
1166kg the total weight? Can't quite see with the light reflection.
How much did he charge you for that mate?
Was that the final corner wrights at the bottom? How much fuel did you have in? Still quite substantially out is that. I hope to get mine a lot closer. I know the fronts are more...
Thank you Mark! The chemical blackening is superb! It's by far my favourite thing I've done so far haha other than the White cage hehe! I took so many pics to try and capture how good they look but they really don't do them justice! It's annoying! Need an SLR in my life haha!
Hopefully should...
I was planning on using the exact same method using deox c but it didn't cost me a penny to blast them at uni and they were then re blasted at the powder coaters I've taken them to as they use an even finer sand/glass bead to reduce any chances of trapped air and forming bubbles, like you see...
Ooooh almost forgot shout out to @Llewellyn for sorting me out with cup hubs!! Still waiting for the uprights, rear hubs and stub axles to come back from the powder coaters but as you can probably see the black oxide hubs have come out pretty dam well! Managed to drill out the snapped disc bolts...
Haha I know mate, just not had the chance! Enough pictures for you haha? Still got a fair few shiny new parts coming my way so keep tuned!! Just cant bare to fit my new coilovers near anything thats old or rusty so literally replacing every bolt, nut washers bushes the full shabang!!
Painted my rear brace, did have plans to weld this into my cage but but changed my mind. Also courtesy of my misses I have a new roll cage companion haha! Flat Eric FTW!! Bloody miss those adverts pahahaha
that's such a huge difference I hope you didn't pay much for the first place its almost scandalous that haha! Good looking car though mate really clean!
