I have half a Twix and a Scotch Egg up for grabs.
Kelv these are very poor pictures by brother took last year when he first removed the lower dash. I've since cleared a lot more crap out and removed the rogue wires you see dangling so it's much neater. The leg of the dash bar you see to the...
Good choice of wheel. I have the same on my M3.
I bought my LCI's from here. Currently showing as around £385 delivered. Genuine BMW but they remove the BMW logos before shipping for some reason. Even come with a genuine packaged BMW loom adaptor.

The track Clio I'm building caused a bit of a debate with me and my brother yesterday about its weight. He came out with some crazy figure of 700kg and I said 950kg.
Any thoughts?
The spec will be;
FF car
Fibreglass bonnet and boot with poly rear.
All tar patches removed
ABS removed for Cup...
Just take your time and trace each wire carefully and you'll be fine mate.
I reckon there's only 1kg between this method and stripping the whole loom down and removing the lengths of wire in there as well. It's just not worth the risk.

The car is Iceberg which would be nice but this would take a lot of prep and I'd be upset if I marked it.
Satin black would be minimal prep, cheap and I could do it myself but it makes the interior look a bit grim.
White would take some prep but I could still do it myself and I could touch...
I stripped a previous loom methodically by removing all loom wrap, marked all redundant plugs and traced them back to the plugs and removed the pins. This failed for some reason, as others have said, I don't think these looms like being disturbed.
So I fitted a new standard loom and gave up...
Good work Leeds!
Just don't drive like the last Subaru Phil went on a trackday with! We still need to sort out those finances!
Corts, what dates have you come up with?
I'd have a go Rhys but I'd need to buy a welder and a lot of the kit and time really is my most valuable commodity!
I've got this cage mate: http://www.ybracing.co.uk/page1.php?sitepage=4&area4=&subarea=248&part=20961
Fitted like Marks in this thread...
I've had my Brothers mate around tonight to look at fitting my 6 point bolt in cage.
To fit 3mm plates to the front and rear feet, box section for the main hoop with captive nuts, build 2 door crosses with gussets he reckons £250.
Now I'm not sure if that's with or without materials at this...
Perfect Mark. Thanks.
So looking at yours, did you notch the sill to get the hoop bolts in then plates under the front and rear feet on the inside?
Got my welder coming over tomorrow to discuss spec.
I must say, yours looks excellent.
