Its got the K click. I'll make a direct 12v shunt for the solenoid. The original rover set up only gives about 11v to it.

It seems my starting issues are down to a small fire I've had at some point...

I've been offered all the parts to turbo this for £800 inc new turbo.... Would run 210bhp. Will probs go bang, but it'll go bang anyway right.....

Bloody thing..... On the upside the new brakes are awesome. I've gained some pedal travel, so I'll have to relocate the throttle pedal now.

How easy/hard was it?

I had the Recaro's in mine

I loved mine too. It only had 30k on it when I owned it last year.

No yet. I wanted it finished first. My issue seems to be is the fact each brake circuit has its own master cylinder. The fronts are well bled and nice and firm, the rears are still full of air and knackered fluid. This difference in resistance between the two master cylinders is causing the...

No the cage is too far away from them. I'll have a think how best to fit those later. At the moment the braking system is favouring the rears, so I've get that to sort next. Along with a tiny oil leak from the oil pressure sensor. Took it for a quick test drive yesterday and apart from the...

Rob are you actually coming?

FU! The alpina is awesome.

10 weeks on. Old man weekend driver Track weapon

When do we get the video of you slinging one up the wide in the back of it?

Carbon NV. Took ages to come but well worth it. Trying to decide how to fit the doors on now...

Is this a what car thread but in the media section?

Yes!

Side door mock up

Now we are talking....

My carbon half doors and front wings are here! Full carbon is sexy.

Small update. Brand new twin pot 54mm callipers with DS2500 pads A new throttle body (52mm) and elbow and air filter to replace the knackered one. My old throttle body was a 48mm one with a "wedge" in it to limit flow. The VVC shouldn't have a wedged throttle body, so that's a bit weird...

They rattle like f**k and I took them off then kinda forgot. It rolled over 80000 today too.

It is cheap. But the bi turbo engine is so much nicer!

I might get some new dampers tbh. The current spax ones are deffo past there best.

1976 Cortina..... Ordered some brand new replacement ones.

Final session at Blyton with dead brakes. New callipers and pads now needed. Callipers were 40 (yes 40) years old and the pads were from 1998!

Some clio action too with my mate and @Addz in the back ground?

This was during my moment.... Check that compression!

Might need some ARB's to stop the roll. Fully committed though.

It was dropping off it that started the bloody thing. Lesson learned was, if your line is wrong, don't commit!
