HI there, I'd like to hear from you if you weren't happy with your exhaust. I think you had a 172 system? if so this comes with an additional rear mounting but no Audi type mount - that's the 182 system that uses the Audi type mounts. Our exhausts are still made by the same guys that have...

Whoa! This looks like a close call. We manufacture our top mounts from 7075 and it corrodes very quickly so we cover them in oil and get them hard anodised as soon as we can. Our brake brackets are steel and zinc plated with a colour passivation but even after the salt gets through the zinc...

Just for future info, the reason for the washers underneath our top mounts on B14s is because, for some strange reason, the locating spigot for the top spring cap protrudes through the top spring cap by a fraction of a mm. If you put our lower spacer straight onto the locating spigot the top...

Looks great! Keep us posted with results from exhaust system fitting and mapping.

You want to spring the car as soft as you can get away with and my opinion is those rates are way too hard on the back. It might work for how Mark likes his car set-up but I like it soft and compliant to maximise mechanical grip. Wheel frequency with a 100-110N/mm rear springs would be huge...

The ASTs are a great piece of kit but £500 more than our Bilsteins. I used AST once and that was enough for me. Hopefully their service has improved. In my opinion the AST rears lack droop travel and our Bilsteins have been made to allow more droop travel. I swapped from an AST rear with...

Looking Good Nathan! I hope it goes well this weekend. Looks like the weather will be dry as well - bonus!

Thanks Dmac, We have these in stock but not on our current website as we're just about to launch our new one! They are a complete rack without inner tie rods built up into a casing with either hydraulic PAS or manual configuration. Hydraulic PAS racks are £495 +VAT, manual rack is £370+VAT...

Our hillclimb and sprint car has a full flat floor and rear diffuser, as in photo above. I planned to test it last year with a 'set a time then take it off and see' approach but never got around to it. The theory on our car was to reduce drag than to provide any real 'downforce'. The diffuser...

It's a 'safe' failure with no slackening of the belt or breakdown of the vehicle.

Hi Guys, Thanks for the feedback on the aircon delete kit. Just a few things to put across from our side: Tom, I assume it was you we sent the replacement bracket out to earlier this week? I Believe this had been on the car for some time and I said to you on the phone that had you recently...

Just a quick note to all that we are looking into solving this problem and have had some positive results from some testing today - we will keep you posted.

Oh really, I don't remember doing any without O-rings but I have slept since then and I think I get formatted every night.

If you take it apart you'll see that the reverse lock sleeve is machined internally with an o-ring top and bottom! Putting a washer in the bottom makes no difference as we've tried already!

What? The hub wouldn't snap?!!! The front subframe and wishbones are weak, so for any competition use the stiffer you can make them the better. If you hit a wheel hard enough to bend a wishbone, you've probably bent the subframe whether the stiffening plates are there or not.

I hope you've got throttle bodies as well otherwise you're going to be a poor man indeed!

^^this is why we use Laguna hubs^^ Well said!! We've fitted the bump steer kit to a standard Clio and Laguna uprights - we use the same bump steer kit on the clio and laguna uprights but the clio uses the large spacers and shims at the top and the laguna uses the small spacers and shims at the...

The bump steer on our development hog was surprisingly bad with the standard track rod ends and the kit has made a big difference. On bumpy corners it no longer needs any steering corrections - it just goes where you want it to.

In 10 years they will change gear just by recognising your thought processes. Joking aside, they enable accurate shifting and the gear-knob is actually where you can reach it. It's not a 'short shifter' so doesn't encourage synchro beating shifts but it's still down to the driver to shift slow...

Yes we have made a few changes. We try to evolve all of our parts on every batch to continually improve the fit and quality.

I'm with you there, but the customer is always right remember!

Hi Guys, I've only just seen this thread hence the lack of reply up until now. Yes the linkages rattle, as you know! They did rattle a whole lot worse on the prototypes until we put some 'anti rattle' o rings at the top and bottom of the inside of the reverse pull up sleeve so that the sleeve...

The bearing manufacturer doesn't recommend any lubricant at all as it supposedly degrades the PTFE liner. I would have thought any petroleum based lubricant would degrade it but maybe some type of grease made for plastics might be OK. We don't have any plans for a full stainless bearing as we...

Hi Guys, Just thought I would give some advice: To replace the bearings, remove the circlip and press the bearing out but make sure the tool you use is a tight fit with the outside of the bearing as you may leave the outer sleeve in place otherwise (the bearings have an inner and outer part)...

If you have ITBs ours will fit straight on with no cutting of bodywork etc. We spent a day with plumbing pipe to get the primaries to fit so that you can now just bolt it straight on!! We've done the hard work so you don't have to! (I've heard that somewhere before I think?)

TBC!!

The next engine is in development and we are productionising the build process as much as possible to make it as quick and straight forward as possible. As for price, we still don't know yet but we are working our way through a huge spread sheet and pricing all the parts and labour. The next...

We would like to do it ASAP but it depends on everyone else. As long as it doesn't drag on and people give up waiting I don't mind really. There's loads in stock so ready when you are really.

If you'd prefer some of our bits sent to your house rather than Father Christmas emptying his sack under your tree then here's the deal: Strut braces and top mounts are going up (I've been saying that all year!) so how about 1% off for each one sold up to a maximum of 15% off with free P&P, eg...

That's what my missus says.
