Off with the cooked discs and pads... I machined the new callipers last week in work, I took 5mm on the mounting face and 1.5mm off where the nuts will sit to accommodate the 283mm bells and rotors later on in the year. Managed to get my 4 pots on, they're a tight fit! I'm going to take a...

I'd just run longer springs. Mine

Your searching skills are weak! http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=170742971646 Depending on what offset wheels you have you might be better off getting some bolt to hub 15/16mm spacers

12mm will be fine on the standard wheels. 60.1mm and 4x100

I'd imagine 10mm would be plenty with super ts

Spoke clearance. Circumference is limited to 15" and 280mm discs and 16" and 300mm discs unless you make your own brackets.

15" Et35 pro race 1.2. I've got 10mm spacers but I'm going to reduce them to 5mm

Depends on the wheel. A Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 needs ET30 on a 15" to clear 280mm discs and IIRC it needs ET40 or 35 on a 16" wheel to clear 300mm discs. A Pro Race 3 needs less offset as they have more brake clearance. What wheels do you have? scooby-93

If you phone them I'm sure they could do one without a centre silencer

Ahh that's what mini meant! Yes I think my alternator is slowly dying.

That's the point

Alternators generally work at their best around 2-3k rpm. So if you double the pulley size then your making its optimum around 4-6k rpm :) I think mine is going slowly so I'll be changing mine with a bigger pulley too.

Very nice car for 18! I'd have left the stripes though.

R1R overheat, they're a good wet tyre though. RSR need lots of camber or very stiff suspension which compromises the car, they work well on balanced cars like BMW 3 series, MX5 etc. AD08R would be my choice. Grips well and takes a bit more abuse.

First year I haven't been. It's a great show with a really eclectic mix of cars. Might take the Clio up the hill next year.

Graph looks wonderful! Bet it's lovely to drive.

It looked and sounded great Joe. Nice to meet you too :)

Cool thread. Just been through it all. Jealous of the move, are there many engineering jobs? I' 've got a MSc in Manufacturing and I'm doing my CEng.

Those figures sound good :) stick a graph up!
