    Harness sticky?

    Sounds good, I do actually think I'd opt for Lamb over Pork. so on that basis, yep, stop trying to educate pork ;)

    Harness sticky?

    I like pork, nice roast on a Sunday... Along with a nice spoonful of apple sauce :)

    Bucket seat advice with 4 point harness

    Personally, I find the Bimarcos very comfortable, I am quite tall and on the slim to average side. they offer me great support where I need it, but every person will be different so you really need to try a few to make an educated decision. you will need subframes, side mounts and runners for...

    Exhaust Help...Essex?

    I wish mine only took 90 mins, they had the car for several days when they made my system.

    Has insurance got cheaper this year?

    Both? But you've quoted three!? ;) :rasp: had a quote for the Trophy, fully comp, everything declared (inc. cage, AST's, brakes, buckets etc etc) and that was just shy of £250 :)

    Exhaust Help...Essex?

    Hayward and Scott are good guys, they made system for me in the past on an Escos. ​im sure they didn't charge you more than was needed.

    Cage?

    Blimey, sounds cheap. the cage in my old escort was made in T45 and cost £3k. ​i really wouldn't rush in to buying a £150 cage.

    Best brake set up for 197 ?

    £600 for an AP kit, that's Bloomin cheap. what calipers are they using, or is that just an AP bell and rotor setup?

    how cheap would you go on rear pads.

    How stale tho, because you can always toast them for a bit of a revival if they haven't gone to far ;) :)

    problem with wonky ride height

    Do not set coilovers up based upon how many threads you have wound it up, that is not the way to level a car or set its heights. if you really want the car level, you need to measure it to and from a fixed point that doesn't move. just having them at the same threaded height on the body of the...

    The tow car

    I was looking at them, a 4x4 that's not to big for Kim, that I could use as a fall back tow vehicle if need be. my worry is how close to its ability levels I'd be getting with the trailer when fully loaded. the trailer is currently over at a friends having a rack fabricated for an extra 4...

    The tow car

    Its got to be better than my 4.7 V8 Jeep at the moment tho Chip. im a bit reluctant to spend a fortune as its literally only going to be a tow car, and occasionally taking the dogs out during winter. ​the rest of the time it will probably sit there with the trailer.

    The tow car

    Cheers for the update on yor fuel consumption Morgan. I assume it towed more or less effortlessly, even with a boot full aswell?

    Cheers for doing that for us Fred, and well done Martin looking after the purchase for us while I'm otherwise 'occupied' ;)

    Custom race manifold

    I've never heard of South East Customs and I've lived in/around the Crawley are for many many years now. with the sellers name wing Steve Kemp, and the member on the forum selling bits in the for sale section under the username of walk3r0 being Jack Kemp, I'd assume they are related somehow...

    Ast sportline 1 with PM topmounts

    The tow car

    Where are you going with it Saturday? keep me posted as to what you may get from a full tank please, there is a decent two tone red and grey one near me at a nice price I spotted today, 3.0 V6. if the realistic fuel return with car/trailer isn't so bad I may just go and snap it up :)

    What can i get rid of ...

    Remove all of the sound deadening. cut off all of the rear seat fixing points. remove the front seat rails and weld in proper spec seat rails that allow you to sit lower. remove the passenger side airbag. remove all glass and replace with Perspex. Replace panels with fibreglass alternatives...

    Clutch on way out? Or garage trying to rip me off?

    Why would you want windows that look like sick? odd choice for modifying!!

    The tow car

    I do like these, I keep looking at the 2.5TD, but doesn't seem to be a great deal of difference in the book claimed MPG between either, or certainly not enough for it to make a huge difference in choice. ​looks good Morgan :)

    ARP Rod Bolts - Who's cheapest

    I remember just after I bought the mountune roller barrels for the Escort, I had a chat with him one night in the fairmile pub and he went in depth about having the MIS inlets remade aswell, and tried talking me in to selling the mountune setup in favour of the MIS. it was about then I started...

    BIGASH/FF-Racing X85 Clio Cup Racer Project

    Ah jolly good. i do like Will, he always gives me a cuddle when he see's me and our conversations normally consist of food and 2 for 1 meal deals we used to share when I was working in Cheshire, I think he was still at MSD back then. hes a good egg and very knowldegable, hes helped out a lot...

    ARP Rod Bolts - Who's cheapest

    I didn't realise Steve could source parts like that aswell, but thinking logically I'd imagine he has contacts in every angle of motorsport and car tuning. havent seen him for ages actually, last time was at Silverstone last year as we sat back munching ice ccram in the sun as Jacko tried to get...

    Bimarco's are lovely and comfortable for the style of seat that they are, I have them in the Trophy and feel nice and comfy :)
