Bled the brakes and washed it...

Nothing since I updated my thread. Letting the bank account recover.

Updates? @Ben NBR Cup

It's alright. You can tell it's only £150 and it's not as nice as my Halfords professional one. I've got the 200 Halfords advanced set. Bought the spare trays and cut them down to size. Works well I think.

Went with this in the end. Sealey 8 draw with ball bearing rollers. Can't argue with £149 posted. :up:

When I drove I took a torque wrench and a pressure gauge.

Can't stand messy garages :smile:

Exactly what I do. Just want one big chest I can chuck in the van and go knowing I've got all my tools/spares

Looking at getting a new chest on rollers to take to track/race days. Gonna be kept in the garage and loaded into the van for outings so I can keep everything I need in one place, knowing I've got everything and keep small spares like disks/pads etc in. What have people got for this? I like the...

looks very tidy :up:

find out next week

answer to the title of thread?

My 2500's weren't amazing. Got hot very quick and were worn out by the 3rd day out. Gone to DS1.11 now

Tidying up the garage and though I better check the tyres they didn't have much left on them...

Today's efforts. New rear disk and studs after I killed them on the last outing. 😅 New pads. 4 track days those 2500's have done. Replaced with ds1.11's As I got black flagged at Dony for the bonnet latch failing twice :grimacing: thought I would get some cheap pin latches...

Def correct Genuine disks

Is 20nm not about hand tight? I'll have to go get a smaller torque wrench to check

Sorry meant hand tight for the studs and 105 for the nuts

105nm

Using locktite on them. Only had two come loose but obviously is ruining the disk so need to take them out and reinstall them all

2nd time the thread failed. First time the collar or countersink of the hole had cracked and a piece of the disk had come away. Only done up hand tight

So I've got a bit of a weird one. Checking my bolts with a torque wrench yesterday on track and found that one wouldn't do up. Took the wheel off and the stud has come out a bit. Try to do that up with no success and then find that the thread on the disk has perished. This is the second time...

I asked my mechanic and now I've seen it in person I understand it a bit more. For the moment we had kept the key to work the immobiliser/alarm/central locking for security. Turning the key now does nothing it just needs the key in, the ignition is controlled by the switch. When I get round to...

Tape'd the bonnet shut to keep it coming up.

will get you one

Right.... Donington today. First time on the circuit and its awesome. Its the first track i've driven where elevation plays a massive part. Loved the whole day. There was lots of fast clio's to play cat and mouse with and @mattsouthall of course. Started off very wet do decided to use the...

Harness bar is spot on I recon

As promised... Will do an updated spec list and write up when I'm home. Donington tomorrow :smilingimp:
