What's a full set of polycarbs cost these days?

Ordered it just now.

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco Does de activating the auto lights not knock the wipers off as well?

Cheers Jon, I looked on demon tweeks yesterday but could only see the horrible plastic ones.

Well done Dan.

Hi all, where do I purchase a steering wheel cover for my OMP wheel?

You as well??

Removed my PH1 steering wheel and fitted my new OMP item. Goes nicely with the dash and is smaller so feels better to hold. I now have a PH1 wheel fir sale and a dished OMP that is also surpless to requirements.

Mentalists lol

I worked at a Mazda dealer than did RX8 rebuilds and £4000 was nearer the mark. People paid it as well, they did well over ten in four months.

The article was a good read but it almost came across as if you were trying to impersonate a stereotypical motoring journo. You cover the features of the car well but some of the terminology that you used and phrases are full on Alan Partridge meets Jeremy Clarkson. Its your first article so i...

There used to be a super charged one near where I lived, sounded like a jet fighter and went like one as well. I think they look awsome but the rotary engines can need rebuilding as low as 40k or can goto 100k depends how they have been looked after. We won't touch anything with a rotary engine...

Speak to Colin Bass of Wests Renault in the traders section and get the genuine articles. Just had all the above done minus the steering rack bushes, makes the car feel like new.

Ahh so your the fucker.....we'll be having words.

Cloth on a stick for the passenger is what I heard.

If they aren't a silly price I'll have 7.

It'll turn up as a box with a picture of two brake discs in it lol.

I can't reveal plans for mine yet Pete as if I do they will no doubt go pear shaped but it goes in hand with my cambelt change due this year.

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco Fair do's if you know the guy. Was going to say its a bit odd. I even made the tech at work take me out in the car with him after he'd fitted my new front shocks to make sure he wasn't taking the piss.

Never used one but heard good things from friends that use them.

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco Why would he be driving your car fast? Infact for an MOT why would he be driving your car at all?

The car is pretty much for track use only. More driven than detailed. Might have found what I'm after on ebay. Anyone know what diameter a normal PH1 wheel is?

I have indeed but its not my cup of tea. Costs more than the OMP ones and I would need a seperate boss kit.

Hi All, Having finally been paid (about f**king time) I am after the purchase of a steering wheel. Most probably an OMP so need suggestions for best place (means cheapest). All suggestions welcome. Cheers Andy

The point is fellas if the hand brake is off how can the brakes stick in the first place?

My run of success with cars has never been great. But as 'they' say sometime your luck has to change.

f**k sake Dan you've had some s**t luck. Fair play to the other Dan for the offer and being a true friend there. Hope you manage to get this all sorted and together for Bedford as I want a run out in it.

So whats the ETA now James for completion? The car will be virtually brand new once you get it finished so when will we see it used in anger?

LOL@ it being a single disc. I'd have liked to have seen the look on Pete's face when he opened the box to find a single disc in it.

Looking good Pete I'll be following this thread with interest. Doubt I'll be seeing you at Llandow but hopefully bump into you again later in the year. I have a few plans for my flamer this year just need to see how they pan out.
