I dont know who that mixed batch was spec'd by but estimate that would have been 2005 ish. pretty big manufacturing error!!

and once again, pretty damn close to the facts. You're good ;)

flashing light can mean destructive misfire. Have you washed the engine recently? water in the plug holes?

there's lots of reasons 4 pots caliper have advantages, and lots of reasons standard are fine for short distance racing 4 pots are almost always made of aluminium which is better at dispersing heat. You also get the advantage of evenly using both sides of the disk, which although they are...

I really dislike the olive joint on the back end of the 182 cat. cutting it off and welding a straight outlet on solves so many things

look for play in driveshafts. They'll be at a different angle now and any wear will be much more pronounced

not at all if you actually look at graphs rather than purely a peak number

if it has a decat then it's normal for the emissions light to come on

looks fine

just call Birchdown

thats pretty standard really. Bit worn but not unusual

5502428 272 / 256° 236 / 219° 11.30 / 10.25mm 0.55 / 1.55mm O.E.M. HYDR: sport 5502438 276 / 268 240 / 231 11.25 / 10.25 mm yeah......they're the same PMSL

fairly common. Usually happens with excessive wheelspin in my experience, but I also think incorrect shafts being used can cause it. once it's gone you need to either get aonther box, or have the groove remachined as tony said above. they're a bit like pringles, once the pop they dont stop

love it. Valver wheels work really well too

the engines thrive on miles. I'd go as far to say that the low mileage cars that don't get used have more things seize up. Proper regular oil changes and correct maintenance and it'll be faster than one thats been locked away and wasted

used to be £210 ;)

the kit is now £75, and it's bumper off etc to fit. I've just recalculated this as a £145 job all in

Gaz coilovers that cost £1200??? did he buy a second set at the same time for when the first falls apart?

are they f**k. Myself and Darren at OMEX designed them, with me basically telling him what was needed, and he did it (him being the ex cheif engineer at Marcos and now at TTS) on commision from Ktec. Compbrake ripped off the design as their old one was s**t

I run R5 coilovers (with a different spring cup) on my mk1 clio. Apart from top mounts they're incredibly similar. Disks and pads will be very very easy from any motor factor, and brake lines will need to be made from a length of copper pipe with new unions flared on

just looked at a set. Didn't like how they dont have a spreader plate on the top, and you can't even fit washers to the bolts, but they look well made

yes do exactly that, it's purely a length

I'm fitting some for a customer along with matched inlets. Should be very interesting

850 should be long enough, if not too long

16mm Dowty washer. Google it

yours

I'm going with making it blindingly fast, without making it offensively loud or in any way uncomfortable

thats a 3 way deal, they're ALL built in the IBC (vauxhall) plant in luton, and all identical except for badges.

it's not a copper washer, it's a dowty washer I wouldn't mind if it was buying one, it's ordering 20 and them turning up in the smallest bag known to man that upset me

around £1.70 from renault I almost choked
