low speed would be ok probably because the pull is less noticiaable.
Have you bedding the brakes in
Did the caliper sliders work?
Did you bleed the brakes?

Or have a read here http://web6.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=23&t=1013747&nmt=Which brake fluid is best, 4 or 5.1...
4 Isn't better straight out the bottle only after a short time 5.1 will absort water quick so becomes worse than 4 at the same age.
5.1 is race car only.
5.1 is hydroscopic ie absorber water don't use it unless you fully bleed your brakes all the time race cars use it but the fluid never stays in them long.
5.1 isn't that much better than 4 and give it any time in use and 4 is better.
Setting them up can be problems to ensure they good linkages etc
What ECU are you going to use when you start saying stand alone etc etc etc then the saving using bike bodies can sometimes be small in the grand budget and for the hastle not worth it
If you think were bored of sick newbies asking the same questions do you think that if there always asked then we always give the same answers so a quick search would revel the answer qucikly?
Anyway as regards the seat you can remove some little riuber in the search if you become a member...
Dealers / manurfacturers have to prove the mod is resonsible for the failure.
ie 200hp of N20 in the engine and your box breaks then can say well its not designed to take that much extra load and none would question it.
I wouldn't worry much though most dealers are ok.
His collection seems quite different realy he has a Boxter but no lines or 911's and ferraris which most garages would contain. If you look at what some other arabs have as collections they are indulgencies his seems quite mild.
I wonder if he has a petrol station for them though?
Sports KA?
Well done one thing is I gueess he won't have problem with rusting wisbones on it.
Shame that tristar won't be going anyway though I'd imagine.
A 1.6 of the same age etc will eyp no need to change mounts just got to remember to get the car remapped or swop a blank ecu over or swop all the ECU/UCH etc.
A 2.0 Yep can be done done many times before in the Uk I wouldn't bothere recomending as a proper 2.0 can be bought for less.than the...
When you say it wasnt starting this morning how did it "just ticking over" did it tick over but not rev?
Check you have fuel and a spark? Give the car a proper bump start then see what happens if you have fuel spark and a bump start it should start
Your power assisted stearing is all electric it only knows how fast the car goes by the abs system. The speed etc depends on the assist it give ie heavy/light stearing.
Since the abs ring is slipping then the abs things that wheel is skidding hence the abs issue.
Also the speedo keeps giving...
The second number in the oil is its viscosity at a set temp. On track your oil gets hotter than normal so you need oil which is the same viscoity as normal running. So for going for oil which is thicker at a normal temp when its being used at higher temsp on track its as viscious as the 40 oil...
Stock spec is fine for older milage
As for stress of track the issue is the engine get very hot and oil temps get high so you nee decient spec oil and if its track use only a 50 weight oil not the 40
Personaly I'd stick with stock but none listens they only agree later
Change the dogbone mount (under the car easy to do though) and the movement in the gear leaver will stop/reduce.
Your beleeding the fluid anyway so many would say yes. They do help with the firming of the pad as they don't give as much but the brakes are no better with them.
Personaly I wouldn't but I'm cheap. If you get the cheap its a not bad
