I have a few bits in stock for brake ducting, hopefully gte it on this weekend. Steels are quite weak, i have ultra rare et16 r5gtt cup car steels on my Extra and they bend for fun with a bit of kerb hopping on track. Ill stick with the heavy but solid 2118s on this as i know they can stand...

Good to meet you mate ? Had a good day at Trax, got offered a few track slots but didnt want to tempt fate and bust something with Croft coming up. Didnt get chance to see your ph1 as ran out of time, do you have a project thread on here ?

Big shoes = big socks ? I was going to fit mk1 clio 16v steels at one point but not much in the way of brake cooling I was going to sell them on but sadly somebody has chopped them to fit around the footrest so prob not worth much. You should see the price of r5gtt rubber mats, ive seen them...

Ign leads wont have caused it, they can be on different cylinders without issue due to the wasted spark setup. Bottom end probably just knackered due to wear and tear, whats the mileage ? I would double check crank pulley or nothing on the aux side has fallen to bits Nothing lasts forever...

I bought a bb4 for my mk2 astra in 1999. Increased the noise 100% and decreased performance. A year of road use and it looked like it had been in the sea it was that rusty ?

2x track vans Extra has done Mallory park 3x, Blyton 3x, Croft, Teesside, Cadwell Park, Donington, Rockingham. Before track use it lived on the qtr mile, must have done 100+ runs over the years at various venues. Its still as far as im aware the fastest Extra in europe with a 12.67qtr & 4.1 sec...

Considered some reflective chevrons on the back for the motorway maintenance look too lol. Ordered a small piece of 2mm alloy sheet to make a heel & toe accelerator pedal as struggling to heel and toe even with my size 11s. Marked out and ready to cut at the weekend.

Peco takes me back..i thought they had shut shop and renamed as something else. The quality used to be turd years ago are they any better now ?

Update, Kangoo has been running great since last hiccup, no issues to report. Adjusted rear brake compensator, wound it off fully and the brakes felt a little bit lacking, but sharper pedal. Took it to my local garage and they let me run it up on the brake rollers to check out brake force and...

Ive only really drove a stock cup packed 182 on track so hard to compare handling. Its very planted, no understeer unless you overdrive it.

You can set the multiplex settings to remove airbag ecu from multiplex iirc, that would prob work if you wanted to bin the airbag ecu. I tried it but still had the serv light on (my airbag light does not work for some reason not taped up either ?) found airbag ecu stashed behind dash so set all...

I turned up at 10am and no space for me to park up on the stand so just abandoned the Kangoo next to the show & shine. Trade stands were gash as usual. Ticket price is getting to be a joke now, they must have made a fortune to be fair with the amount of cars on the stands.

I would be looking at the wheel bearing and cv joint if the car is running stock suspension. I have had similar wheel bearing issues on other cars.

Small pin hole will repair fine. Brake cleaner the grease off around the hole so its spotless - A dab of epoxy resin works great or even better is a small piece of rubber superglued or stuck on with epoxy. Done a small pinhole on my Kangoo before cs festival and not seen a drop of grease come...

Clean the plastics down well before applying it to remove any old trim residue, use ipa or whatever. It goes on easy enough with the applicator, one coat is enough.

Pump shot, had the same issue on mine. What about ditching the aux driven pump and fitting a saxo electric pump (or similar electric pump) onto the hpas setup, a bit like the gen2 cup racer setup. Failing that epas is another option.

Plug it in and get it scanned with clip mate, saves the guesswork.

Stock gear rod is fine not had any issues on track. Is engine rocking all over the place ? The pms is great worth every penny too so much better than stock setup.

Meg250cup all day long. The prices are starting to drop so should get a decent one with change from 10k. I have recently seen a couple of non cups for sale for silly cheap too, could add lsd box etc depends if you want the hassle i guess.

Thats pretty much scrap at the moment as better shells are available. Give it ten years and people will be queing to buy it ?

Is it just a case of reconfig ecu and clocks and add wiring to suit regardless of uch model ?

11t engine pretty much identical to gtt lump. If early 11t engine it will probably have a baffled sump so worth checking if not done already. Should be nice with forged bits, not tempted to go efi whilst on with it ? Im building my new engine for my extra van soon unsure whether to forge or...

Did you program the new uch with a clone clip ? I fancy cruise on my dci - would a n3 uch work on the pov spec loom as mine is n1 from memory.

Aftermarket springs probably the wrong length get some new or used oem

Superb welding @M.C.. that looks better than the tool i bought that has grips inside to remove inner tie rod

I had some uniroyals on my r5gtt a couple of years back, 2001 date stamp they were all over the place especially in the wet despite good tread. Put a set of new tyres on and the handling was transformed. I personally wont run tyres more than 5 years old after that as they are ditchfinder...

You wont stop the rust unless treated properly. If you dont care about it put silver duct tape over it if it rots through or cover the rust patch with thick grease

Does the rs tuner map make the pump prime every click of ign ? Im sure i read it somewhere. Been sniffing about for a replacement intank reg but not found anything yet to save buying the full sender.

Voltage at the fuel pump is rock solid no issues there. I rewired a new plug on sender and new pump relay.
