Wont be seeing it agin until at least March. Once its out its going to need a Cambelt and a full service. On the lookout for a runaround...
Hi guys. My cars being stored away as of next week. Its been cleaned and waxed ready. Is there anything else from a "detailing' point of view i need to be aware of ? Its going to have a cotton cover over it.
Do it mate. Even if its to get it to the same point as mine. At least it will be properly protected !!
Better to have it part way sorted now, than later finding out its much much worse.
Goodwood was great. 7x 15min sessions during the day. Not a huge amount of seat time but thats pretty good going for Goodwood. The car was spot on. Suspension refresh has worked wonders and with the new springs and Strut brace the car feels great. Took quite a fair bit of video doing the day...
Changed the Oil last weekend and swapped over to the DS11.1 and track wheels ready for Goodwood on the 13th. Looks like there is going to be a lot of seat time :)
Also started a little Vlog on Youtube. Not sure it actually qualifies as a Vlog as its not even 3mins long and i don't talk...
Its a great piece of kit. Iv fitted 2 now and its been a breeze both times.
The cup setup requires the PAS pipes to be slightly manipulated out of the way iirc.
Last Saturday I changed the oil, swapped to the DS11.1 track pads and fitted the set of track wheels.
Today I cleaned it
Tomorrow I will take pictures of it and update my Thread :)
Im impressed with the Grams. I replaced all the suspension components so it feels better either way.
The Kam Racing deal with Shocks and Springs is very good value.
Am I missing something from the Free Play option that will just let you go out and do as many laps as you like on a circuit? Like the testing option in 6 once you had tuned your car ?
Also is the full airfield available? Can't find it ?
Il be making my best efforts to get pictures off all the cars in attendance then put together a thread with all your results again. It all got a little confusing last time so once its all done could you all PM me your results or post them here :)
You guys were right !
A day after posting the above the Battery and STOP lights greeted me once again :rage: Surely not a 3rd Alternator ! Turned out the ring terminal had snapped off. Got @Fletcher round to help out and swapped it over. Had a slight issue with the replacement but worked...
Grams Racing springs.
Yea the seats are on custom built Jon Foz frames. Also as there from Recaro and not out of a Meg/200 they have the Recaro frame as well. Not sure how it would work with Meg/200 seats..
3rd alternator (Brand new in March) has gone again. 1st was Original on car. Approx 10years old. 2nd was second hand, unknown age.
Engine a second hand 172 engine. PMS A/C delete. 110A alternator.
Any ideas ??
The PB has now had a full Suspension refresh :smile:

New Ball Joints
172 Cup Wishbones
Had a go at doing it myself but after 3hrs just fitting a Wishbone i...
After nearly 4 years of ownership I'm finally calling this car "Finished". Been through some tough times and some really great times. All the bits iv wanted to do are done mechanical and cosmetically. There will obviously be the general maintenance bits that need doing in the future, Cambelt...
