Found a decent set of spline drive wheel nuts. Steel as well tested to 400nm of torque according to the ad. I'll update if I get any issues

Evening all, I'm really close to finishing my track car but seems nearing the end it's 1 thing after another! Got a super cheap set of alloys off Facebook and ordered some semi slicks. The specs of the alloys seemed perfect, 15", 6.5 inch wide and et38. They are multi fit 4x100 and 4x108 so...

Thanks mate Anyone experience of the Giti GTR2 tyres? Look really well priced on that site. Quick Google says they sponsored a racing series?

OK thanks mate. Any recomendations for cheap track day tyres? Won't be on the road.

Morning folks, Looking at a 2nd hand set of tyres for my first track day. See picture below. Realistically how much life would this set have left in them for track? They are yokohama A048s. Track is knockhill. Thanks

Yep mine did mate

Anyone?

Ill have a check but pretty sure it's still fitted. All abs rings are good as far as I'm aware, new disks and pads all round, new abs rings at the back, all calipers rebuilt. The abs light was off most of the drive but did come on near the end. Assumed air in the system would cause it maybe?

No I just used the pressure from the eezibleed. Am I supposed to pump the brake pedal at the same time?

So took her out for her first drive tonight since I've done a load of track prep. Brake pedal is spongy to say the least. Can pump it and it's much better, but still spongy and a fair bit of travel. Abs light came on too so assume I've got air in there? Would that cause the abs light to come...

Yeah I read that somewhere too. When I first got the car the reverse lock out was set up badly so you could accidently select reverse when selecting first so it was a nightmare to drive it home. I did tweak it the other night with a mate. Selected reverse, positioned it in the car so the...

Hi folks Anyone near the Central belt got clip or Rs tuner and is able to disable all the airbags and sensors in my track car? Thanks Greg

Sorted tonight with a tiny smear of rtv on the face. Only lost half a litre or so of coolant (changed the coolant less than 1 mile ago) so not too difficult a job, took about 10 minutes. Thanks for the replies 👍

So got it running tonight after sorted a leaking thermostat out. Stuck a couple of gallons of super in and took it a "brisk" drive. Didn't skip a beat and ran perfect all the way through the rev range. Thanks for all the helpful comments folks! Now to sort the pms shifter which is set up...

Appreciate it mate. Little bit of a trek though 🤣

Messaged swr also, they can't do it. Anyone else local ish? I know I can use resistors (3.3 ohm I've read), but does this work on the impact sensors that go either side of the car? Thanks

Yeah assumed that but was worth an ask 🤣. Thanks for your help on this mate. Will post an update when I get to it next

Yeah it runs lovely...... When it runs 🤣 Is there any other sensors that tell the ecu it's OK to fire? Obviously the crank sensor but anything else?

That's leads to the question. If it's not fuel what's next on the list? - Its turning over great. Will continually turn over not just for a seconds or 2 like I've read others having starting issues. - No immobiliser light on. - Can hear the fuel pump prime. - White plug in engine bag looks...

Is it accurate though? I've had cars in the past that showed quarter tank and it was on fumes 🤣

Got an alternator fitted and it's now charging about 13.8 to 14.2 from a quick 2 minute test idle tonight. Checked all the earth's etc on the battery where it's located now and all are perfect from my testing. It's just a cheapo alternator (starline) from Euros. Fit is good and charging seems...

Yep zero when ignition off, then when cranking it was between 150 and 200rpm which sounds about right. So fuel was my next thing. I picked the car up a couple of months ago, literally drove it home and it been worked on since (stripped out, cage, bucket seats etc etc plus suspension work), so...

So still got a no start tonight. Toom the sensor out and gave it a clean, all looked OK. Gave it a crank with the scanner live data up and it's reading 150 to 200 rpm on start up. If the rpm is coming back does that rule out the crank sensor completely?

Immobiliser light in the centre of the gauges stays off when I'm cranking. Confirmed tonight. Assuming this is what it's meant to do? Also tried the other key, same thing.

Messages renomotive and they don't have the software either!

I gave the front a wire wheel including the bolts so that was like new, gave the internal a good clean too. Everything was spotless. I'll whip it off tomorrow and see if anythings fowling it. Failing that I'll put a bit of rtv on the face.

Battery is in the boot so bit easier to access the fuse box and crank sensor by looks of it. Atleast it gives me a starting point to diagnose 👍 thanks

Ah so not me being useless 🤣 cheers mate.

Evening all, Swapped the thermostat out recently and first time starting the car noticed it weeping around the 3 bolts where the thermostat is fitted. It was a febi part I fitted that came with the rubber gasket. It's such a simple job, old one out, new one in and do up the 3 bolts. Have...

Brilliant I'll keep an eye on that tomorrow when I give it a try. Is the tdc sensor and the crank sensor the same thing?
