    Braking help

    If you're n/a I'd go. Glanza calipers (actually only the carriers needed) Wms heavy duty discs Ds2500 pads Braided lines motul rbf 600 fluid/or dot 5.1 Maybe a brake master cylinder stopper. Don't bother with rear discs the calipers are nothing but trouble and barely work at the best of times. Only reason to have them is a visual upgrade imo!
  4. Snetterton as long as its the full 300 circuit more suitable for the lesser powered cars as well then ;) Saying that if its around the end of June I might not be able to make it anyway
  5. Just noticed you said LSD box. Not sure how I missed that! Either way details are here, probably no use now though :/ its a ae92 corolla gti box. but It's a c52 box but if you class the output shaft as the pinion shaft then I can supply the output and crown wheel (final drive gear) to match one another. Might be of some use?
  6. what do you class as a pinion shaft. I've got an old box in bits. if the parts are there id be willing to part with them just not sure what you're after exactly
  7. Absolutely gutted tbh, just spent over £100 on parts for it and had just collected them the same day too! haha i was more concerned about getting out the road and not having someone drive into the other side at the time! If i could garrentee id make the money back I've lost out on this then id consider it indeed he does erm not sure, have i got you on FB? will be trying to find one in the uk, if not here ill pop over to ireland. Whether i go for a SS model or a normal mcpherson strut im undecided, will see when the time comes! me too cheers! yeah its part the reason i wanted one being so unique! hopefully, that or they don't and im forced to either 20v another motor or build a turbo engine for my ep ;) yeah i know trees and ditches all around where i lost it, but there was also fields i could have landed in instead! I've got a micra in the field would fit in there quite nicely? haha ill see the true extent of the damage when i pull the wing and door off. glad the signs fairly battered, makes it a little easier i suppose!
  8. I dont really get it, you say when the crank hits the oil. There's a girdle between the oil in the sump and the crank so it never gets in direct contact with much. Other than what's falling down the oil returns . I'm sure I'd does have a purpose but I struggle to see unless running mad revs on a highly strung engine, isn't zisco using a stock one still?
  9. well this was rather short lived, spun it a few weeks ago and hit a sign. the just of it. going round a set of bends less than a mile from home, driven them hundreds of times in every condition thinkable. fairly fast bends but wasnt pushing as it was a new car and it was damp out. either way went into a right hander back end came out. foot in, pulled it straight. braked a tad between the bends then back on the throttle gentley into a long left, where it flips out the other way, back ends out all the way around this bend. (luckily no cars coming the other way) rear right wheel clips the kerb on the outside just before a sharp right hander, sending me spinning back the other way (foot was still in at this point) wasnt until i was going into the right hander completely backwards that i gave up and stamped on the brakes and rode the car home into a chevron sign. by the time i hit the sign it had completed a 360 spin! personally i think part of the passengers SS was shot, it felt funny on some right handers and i never got around to looking at it. hindsight hey! under the wing is a lot worst that on top. theres a pole shaped dent in the chassis rail and it seems the front ends been pushed over and the bonnet is catching when opening so rather than spending money on a car that's bent im breaking it for parts. get my money back and get another! And for all the haters of Rota's, hit a kerb sideways still in one piece... yup i'm surprised too after pulling the wing out and driving it home. damage to the A piller the sign its final resting place If anyones after any parts most bits are available, refurbed twinpots and new yellow stuff pads etc etc.
  10. Ditto this! i got away very lucky a few weeks ago. my car didnt. but id rather my health! hope your mate gets sorted swiftly dude!
  11. after market usually have security tabs over the front onto the side to stop them from being tampered with. stock just has a large sticker with 4efte M/T or A/T and a picture of the plugs at the bottom
  12. Lololol I got a quote to do a rear quarter, C pillar and roof removing rear window including Some filling for £275 all in, they were mugging you off haha
  13. Lovely motor this, Glwts!
  14. ^^^ that ;) And I love how you're taking care of the little things, so much more dedication than me haha
  15. It probably is marc moss taking the piss
  16. Tdi north and south might be worth a shot
  17. Removed it left the ps rack in, worst decision ever, looking at ellecy ps pump To change to a Non ps rack you have to change the whole colomn I believe
  18. Well it is a stag do, ng1 is not going to be the first choice but if we can stitch the stag up then it sounds good lol
  19. Waaaaheeeeyyyyy!!!!!!
  20. Is ng1 a club?
  21. out on a stag do, got some idea of places to go, Any where people would either reccomend or we should avoid? Tbf we'll prob be so trashed it won't matter but it doesn't hurt to ask
  22. I'd say more like aircon stuff in that location
  23. But a turbo lump revs to around 7500 so you've got the extra revs to account for. Hence why I said take it to 3800 and double it ;)
  24. This is This is what I use. Really awkward to get money out of so never any temptation to pick at it either.
