    How to have super low bucket seats?

    I took these earlier if they're of any use to try and show how the seats sit and how the driving position is. Second one is taken from eye level.

    In fact, scrap that. Looks like I'll need a new box

    Is it safe enough to run with? Nothing came out when I drained the oil...

    Well...that's fucked! Where have my needle bearings gone though? They never came out so I'm assuming they're lost in the depths of the gearbox [emoji45]

    Steering rack bushes worn?

    My 172 used to click and clunk a bit when steering back when I got it, took it to my local alignment place, guy had it up on the ramps, nipped up any nuts and bolts he checked. Stopped the clicking, clunking was still there. Turned out that was an incorrectly seated spring. I thought that was my...

    How to have super low bucket seats?

    How low are you looking to go with the seats @dann2707?

    Done some more today. Straightened up my bucket seats. Needed to remove the spacers below the seats on one side to level things off. Eye bolts and everything also arrived today so my harnesses are now fitted in properly. Made epic progress on my driveshaft replacement too. I've now loosened one...

    Need A New PC!

    I've never had any problems with AMD stuff, but I do know their older stuff was a bit s**t lol. There must be a reason as to why everyone still seems to go for Intel, I just can't see what it is. That's less of a price difference than I thought it would be though. Out of the processors...

    Need A New PC!

    Why do people still recommend Intel when people ask for a PC on a budget? There's nothing wrong with AMD processors nowadays apart from they tend to run hotter than Intel ones, but that's only really an issue for laptops IMO. I'd be looking at an AMD setup personally if I was on a budget...

    How to have super low bucket seats?

    You looking at getting the Clubsports? As you've seen in my thread, I've just fitted them with OMP mounts and they're a decent bit lower than standard seats. I find the seating position almost perfect TBH. I have to stretch a little to be able to see the bonnet, and I'm 5'10 so not a short arse...

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    Today was a pretty lazy day. I fitted my seats and gave the car a hoover while I had the old seats out. I tried to get the cage in place for bolting next week but that was a total disaster. I'll need to take out the carpets and stuff anyway which I didn't really think about when I was trying to...

    Cheers bud, that's perfect! Single M8 ones are out of stock though. Typical lol! May just buy the pack of 20 and sell the rest on... Lol, give it a few weeks, there was zero prep work done on that cage so I'm fully expecting flaky paint after a while [emoji23] The seats are the only thing I've...

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    Cage painting complete! Just need some steel plate and bolts to get it fitted now. Also pulled a seat out to trial fit my subframes and buckets (passenger side to keep the car mobile lol) but quickly found a shortage of bolts, so that plan died. Gonna hopefully go get some bolts tomorrow...

    Ahh just seen the edit. Someone mentioned that to me about using a long eye bolt but I completely forgot about it! Will drop you a pm tomorrow!

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    Lol! Yeah, I got the pair for under 100 quid new so can't complain really. I'd heard they're a bit s**t though 😂 Just need to get the mounting point sorted for the side nearest the handbrake. Not got a plate to screw the eye bolt into yet. As for the rear... I bought 3 point's on...

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    Yeah they must be making a mint on them! There's loads of people getting them now Aye, they're not as low as most bucket seats but a decent bit lower than standard, so that suits me. Not got them in yet but I've sat in a car with them on OMP subframes. I'll probably be taking the runners out...

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    Progress! Decided the cage needed painting before it rusted away sitting outside [emoji23] Will be going satin black. Well, if I have enough paint... On the second can of primer lol and I only got two cans of paint so I'm pretty certain I'll run out!

    Yep, that's my plan anyway. Down on the Friday afternoon and back up on the Sunday at some point once I feel fit to drive lol. Will most likely be camping too

    OnePlus One, anyone got one?

    I'm not sure, not been keeping up with any news on the phone or OS really! Just had a read of a few different things today when I got bored in work lol. They seem to have still managed to release it fine even if they didn't meet funding targets though.

    Wheel Alignment (central)

    Depends what you're after. I'd say Progrip in Larbert if you want a standard setup, but he doesn't do custom setups any more. I went to Hypertech in Bonnybridge the other week though as I wanted it set up for track and I couldn't fault them.

    OnePlus One, anyone got one?

    Slowly finding gripes with Lollipop... small things, but the app menu being a white background, the lack of a proper silent mode, and the app switcher layout are all severely shite haha. Feels like the phone runs better than it used to though so I'm happy enough with it. Was reading up on...

    OnePlus One, anyone got one?

    Anyone else had the CM12/Lollipop OTA update yet? Mine updated last night. Looks pretty good so far, but was a bit buggy to start with. Nothing worked until I restarted the phone about 3 times lol!
