    LSD options

    I'm basing mine on 2-3k per year road miles and say 10-12 sprints and a couple of track days a year you should see 3-5 years service intervals, I change oil every 6 months but that's the cheap Castrol mineral oil, you'll possibly find 1st/ 2nd synchros are the problem mine seam to be 2nd/3rd...

    LSD options

    I'd talk to Gripper they will recommend a ramp angle for your application as they do for us on Sprints, I've got their Tarmac ramp angles set on mine I'd just visit the site, the Quaife may not be best for your application as stated once you lift a wheel, I've not noticed any problems with low...

    Standard engine rebuild to group n ?

    It's being talked about on UR forum, the MSA don't set the capacity classes that's down to the clubs and individual championships, I don't see the problem they are just a good car for the standard class, as Paul said he got close;) as the class structure is quite new for standard class the...

    Throttle Bodies

    I agree, my own car has always been legal as I've always run in SB / 1B, I've been sprint hill climbing since mid 90's and seen all the evolutions of 1B from people with race cars with a bit of trim fitted to quick people in standard cars, I won't be cutting mine but looking at another way round...

    Throttle Bodies

    It's a grey area, I can't see a problem modifying the panel as long as you have it in place, I've spoken to a few of the lads I compete against and they can't see a problem, depends how quick you are and the type of scrutineer;) I can't understand how you can cut holes and fit air scoops on a...

    LSD - talk to me

    I've got a Gripper thanks to James fitted with the lower final drive, I've had a Quaife in the 205 and they do spin up even on tight hairpins but are worth the money if all you want is longevity and fit and forget, I'm looking at servicing the gripper on a 3-5 year turn around for what I use the...

    why do they come up when you least expect.

    You always get this, after you buy there always seems to be a better deal:mad: you could end up waiting for ever to buy anything looking at it that way. Regards Russ........

    JC5 172Cup Gearbox final drive

    If it's your daily then I'd say Quaife, but the Gripper is a different animal tbh, I've based mine on a 3-4 year service plan for the box and diff, I do about 2-3k miles a year and the rest is at Sprints and the odd test and track day. What surprised me was Aintree which is a power venue 2 x 90...

    JC5 172Cup Gearbox final drive

    I think there is another available but it's from an earlier box and not very strong after speaking to Agency, but I went the the Gripper Diff and their CWP route, it has totally changed the car for what I'm doing with it, 4 seconds a lap at Anglesey along with tyres and suspension, and wet...

    What do you reckon?

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^ This mine did the same when I'd just bought the car, sounded like a gun going off at 70 on the motorway as it hit the underside of the car along with a big rusty smoke trail in the rear view mirror. Regards Russ......

    Gen90 Issue

    I'd be interested in that as I have the EC1, I don't mind paying for it as I'll be using Scoff at EFI for mapping, he sorted my map out on the current set up, I've not asked him if he has a base map yet. Regards Russ....

    Anti surge baffle plates.

    If your spending £3K - £5k or more on a good engine build then a £150-00 belt and braces baffled sump, HP oil pump big wing sump etc is a no brainer, I'm sure Dan 519 or Fred posted a picture of one a while back when this was asked. Regards Russ....

    How much of a necessity are uprated engine mounts with ITB's?

    I'd say they would be a must, but you could possibley get away with the standard ones for now as they are new, I'd replace the dogbone with pollybush if not already done. Regards Russ...
