The rattle does get annoying when on the motorway but it is worth it on a track car.
I spoke to Nick at FCS and he said he has moved the rattle to higher in the rev range by fitting a damper on the linkage, they should be available to buy soon for about £20 iirc
Bells would be the best but it would start to get expensive then.
Is there much of a difference in performance between the 280 and 300 discs?
If not just get some of the brackets for 280 discs.
What will you be doing with the MC?
Its not needed
Once the first light is on you instantly know (providing it is placed in the correct position) and as the first two are different colours to the second two you know you are getting close to the limit then a really bright red LED then if you miss all that it flashes
Just replied to your PM
Mines the DRE one @NorthloopCup suggested it to me and it's great, I had a faulty unit first, it was not picking a signal up but it was sorted out quickly.
I was going to get the Omex one first but it seems a bit more fiddly to fit as the control box is separate from the...
They are about 150mm back from the slots in the seat, the inside one is going through the exhaust tunnel and the outside one is as far out as it can go.
Not the best picture but hope it helps
Not technically correct, if the car is striped out cage buckets etc they can be FIA or E marked and pass a MOT.
I have 6 point Sabelt harnesses wrapped around the harness bar and I have drilled and fitted eye bolts and spreader plates in the floor for the crotch and lap straps.
If the car is a...
They are not the best but good enough for a DIYer.
They sell them in screwfix as well for not much more than ebay etc, easier to take back if they pack up as I think they have a lifetime warranty
Look nice,
I personally would have gone for some Recaro pole positions (more supportive) but as long as you are happy that's all that matters.
I used these covers on the bolts on my cage and sidemounts...
The feet are not supposed to be like that it is from shipping.
Mine came with one foot bent and when I spoke to Mark about it he said just straighten it with a adjustable spanner but it takes the shape of the arch when bolted down anyway so not much of a issue.
Have a look at my build thread its in there with more pictures.
The drivers side is routed between the panels and comes out by the rear light and the passenger side is just tidied up by putting the cakes inside some conduit tube
Thanks had them from @Carbontec on here as a group buy, I'm not sure he is still a trader but here is his website and I think he sells on eBay

Don't be put off by him being in Poland, he is really helpful
I'm tempted with a odyssey 25 for the track car but Merlin recommended the 30 for my car that has air con (but not used) xenons etc but it is £50 more expensive, I may just get the 25 and risk it, the car is either being driven or when its not its on a maintainer anyway so should be fine, I have...
I have gone inbetween, I left the carpet in the front and everything from the seats back has gone, the door cards have been changed to carbon fibre ones but still fitted speakers as it is driven to the track (not the best sound but better than a constant exhaust noise).
I am in the process of...
What torque setting should the sandwich plate bolt be tightened to for a oil cooler?
I assume you tighten the sandwich plate a bit tighter than the oil filter to stop it undoing the same time as the filter when changing oil?
Here you go mate
After a lot of head scratching for mounting it (did not like most of the ready made mounts / pods) I made a bracket to keep it as compact and tidy as possible, I just need to make a cover to slide over the top to hide the wires, but TBH I could leave it as it does not look...
Thanks Mark
I was speaking with SPA about it and trying various things but it did not get it to work then it just fixed itself, bit of a strange one but all seems good now.
Does sound bad when you think that a truck box will have 16 gears, splitters high and low ratios etc (have not got a clue what that lot looks like inside lol)
When do you think you will get it running?
