Lol, no mate read it wrong, mine was first taxed by the dealer June 2004 for 12 months, so that first disc ends end of June 2005 for 171 quid.

Had to have it @182_steve And lol @B-shaw557 your sort of right in a way, original wheels will need to find thier way back on eventually. And Scotts thread is literally the phase 1 bible @Phase1sr

£171 for a year in 2004 

your selling it cheaper than a competitor?! :P

I guess, cheap and cheerful way to get into competitive motorsport :)

looks properly dull to me, guess its probably not but just looks pants!lol!

boo down with mossy, he owes us all a pint for our trouble now ;)

bought couple of sets for stock

Few more bits sorted Top caps for da coilovaz haz arrived, in a very fetching blue colour........least they'll be hidden! also finally managed to drill out and retap the bolt for the rear seats, what a nightmare that was, I swore, a lot, in fact i'm swearing in my inner monologue still. and then...

I believe that basically everything else is pants compared to the AST's, hence my attempts to save for some.....which admittedly keeps failing!lol!

nice progress dan lad, may see if me and @Akay can get over this weekend for a poke about it if your free :)

as above, its for the acoustic valve on the end of the airbox feed in the wheel arch, pointless so probs been removed so just leave the vac connection blanked

needs rollcage ;)

welcome, nice plan :-)

i'll dig out my first tax disc ;-)

I concur, needs 'da lowz'

New R.S badge fitted to grill and sunshine really flatters odyssey, colours really growing on me :-)

Cheers @mintno1 she scrubs up okay for an old girl! And good to meet you too

Quick pic in the sun with the badge fitted. Crying out for coilovers!! Cleaned and sorted the interior now too ready to fit once I drill out and sort the snapped bolt :-) And also picked up an aluminium bonnet and couple of other bits from @mintno1 steering wheel to get snappy'd...

Basically, if you have air-conditioning or climate control you need the 110

Never heard of this ever and I've used rose jointed solid dogbone mount before. Are the rest of your engine mounts in good condition??

looks like caliper has been binding and overheating the disc have you checked the slide pins are operating smoothly?

More progress last night Refitted my ECU brackets after spraying them satin black, I'm going to replace the battery positive terminal too I think as the cover has broken loose and looks a mess! Then I scrubbed back the surface rust in the inner sills and treated with a coat of hammerite...

@Dr Jekyll everyone knows phase 1 is the best (disclaimer - actually mk1 is da best)

not so sure on the downsize engine claim though, if you need to take meat off the crank/cam and casing to fit the wider bearing profile in then surely this is going to lead to weakness. so if anything engine itself may have to get bigger to accommodate. depends on peak loads on the crank etc I...

just check the main earthing points on the chassis, so front slam panel near battery, inner arch on same side (strap to gearbox) and also check the internal ones to bottom of a pillars under the plastic trims in front footwells

no matter what the specifics here, it definitely sounds like faulty caliper to me, either sliders or piston itself. so I'd begin with a light strip down in situ and check the slider sand make sure the pistons can be retracted relatively easily in the caliper

i'd love a unit but that sort of money, 3000 a year, I could just buy a new trackcar each year as the old one rusts, lol!!!

give it a year and any not owned will be; and all will be in the process of being restored!lol! becoming hens teeth now, particularly the original 1's

i'm in the track it and leave the belt camp too. it may be clean etc but cat c will always count against it, and if it drives well and you know the car its ideal for a base for a track slag imo.
