Its not needed, its to dampen vibration. I would fit the shaft an not worry, i have a J&R shaft on mine an have done for over 2 years with zero issues

There's a guy in Livingston does soda blasting. Pretty sure he has a mobile service aswel

Makrolon is the same thing as Lexan/Polycarbonate, different brand names for the same thing. There are various different types of Makrolon coating. I would assume they would use Makrolon AR If its cheaper than the margard lexan, i would go for it as its pretty much the same thing

Basic sheet scratches easily and will discolor a lot quicker if left in the sun. I would always opt for the Margard coating

Registration: LL09 SXP Spotted twice this week in the morning driving along the A8 (glasgow road, past the airport), between 7.30/7.45. Driving like a bellend, undertaking people, driving up peoples arses, doing 80 (at least) in a busy 60 zone and cut between me and a car on the inside lane...

@Chris_Beer Any chance you have a copy of how much the rear brake compensator parts were and what parts you actually ordered?

For the sake of £100 i would be cancelling my order and going the custom cages route, or have tom johnson on here make you a cage. I have a SASSA full 8 point cage here to weld into mine that i got direct from SASSA (they make the oreca racing cages amongst others) for under £600 delivered

The wording regarding the following of the A pillar hasn't changed. Its simply been brought to light as a view scruts have raised a concern/issue with the design implemented in the current safety devices (and others) cage design

You can but the 1.9" they told me they can supply only go up to 450lbs, i want 550lbs to try as currently have 650lbs springs

Where are you getting a pair of springs for £60 fraser? fronts yes as you can use faulkner, but what about the rears?

I will say yes, dependent on saving

I had a call back aswel, refused to pay the extra seen as it was already more expensive than there website prices. Await a further call back, no doubt cancel an go direct to TD

PM me his number if you could fella, i need a set of wheels in a size that isn't listed on the topgear website

Knew it was too good to be true! just called and it would appear they change the prices each phone call. Still cheap though

If the prices are indeed for a set of 4 i will be ordering 2 sets minimum

if thats the case you can buy a set of silver TD 1.2's for £185????????? surely not. That being the case i shall be ordering a few sets at lunchtime!

I just had a look at the prices and they appear to be per wheel according to the website

Have one custom made would be your best option i would say

It was modified with AST's, miltek exhaust an a few other bits. I believe he is turning it back to standard to sell! Oh an it's white I can pm you his advert if you like

That's the one. Its a superb car and very clean, certainly worth the £9k. I was a bit surprised it didn't sell with all the upgrades he had made

brilliant cars, i have a mate selling a 250 cup on 55k for £9000. really clean example aswel

The SM inlet doesn't just give a higher peak figure when combined with boost. It moves the powerband upwards slightly in the rev range and allows the engine to hold power longer (as long as the turbo is capable of holding boost), plus various other changes

Granted there may be no boost but it will run like a bag of spanners. Too many parts have been changed the standard ecu will be having a shitfit

I dont see the point in risking the drive. simply send the ecu to be base mapped, it wont run like an NA. Although if you are keeping the SM chris can't put a base map on to suit it

not a fan of the new 5 door trend that the manufacturers seem to be adopting.

I don't see the fear factor with running a forged build as a daily, as long as it is built correctly with the specified tolerances it wont be an issue. I used my Mr2 Turbo that was fully forged as a daily and racked up 20+ thousand miles on it with zero issues, made the same power 4 years later...

I also have a PH1 and have had zero issues with the ABS other than a sensor but on a 16year old car its to be expected. My car is mainly a track car and i'am very harsh on the brakes, the ABS works quite well on track. To answer the OP's question if you are selling the car its a pointless...

proper padding on the B pillar legs of the main hoop and using a full cage on the road isn' an issue from a safety point of view. The impractical aspect of it (providing you have cross doors bars), would soon get old i would imagine

Out of curiosity what did they charge for having the belts done. PM me if you don't want to post it in the open forum

@bozothenutter are you running an RSX diff in yours?
