That would make for an interesting race. Two stock cars against each other. Both 130 bhp. I know who I'd put my money on. As said there is something special about the driving of a mx5

Nice first post. So it's not so much a welcome but more a welcome back?

See I'm tempted to wait to see what you offer Jezza. Because the ride in my car is awful as it is. And I like powerflex components. But a softer alternative might be the way to go.

Item For Sale: Pair (Or singularly) EP 82 Seats with rails Item Condition & Description: Firstly I'll start with Passenger seat. Fine working condition seat. Ratchet works and they slide up and down fine. Minor blemishes to the seat, some of which is dirt from where they've been stored and some of small ash burns. Just typical for the age of these seats. I've tried to capture this the best I can. And on the seat belt side some of the stitching has started to come away. Definitely nothing major and any basic seamstress or you yourself could patch it up. I've pulled it back just to sh

ID-Workz sell them. Another company is making some too! Apparently, the Polybush ones can be quite harsh for the road. So I've bought them but have not yet fitted them. But the other company is developing ones with a little bit more give.

Yeah what was the Jingle about. I know I read it somewhere? Can't believe you would let this CLASSIC go

** SOLD ** GT Driving Force Steering Wheel, Pedals And Stand
Calum122 replied to Sefton-EP91's topic in General Sales Items
Wow that's a bargain. Always the way when a new console makes old gear obselete. Any GT fans though should snap this up. You haven't truly experienced GT until you've played it on a decent wheel, and this is a decent wheel. -
Well I've been in both and the Starlet would smash the Mazda. I'd say it would smash it round a track to. You also get four seats. But there is DEFINITELY something special about driving the mazda. From where you are sat to the fact it's rear wheel drive. It's a hard choice. But for the money, you'd get a higher spec Glanza, that''s for sure.

My dad currently owns a BBR Turbo mazda It's a solid Car. 1.8 Turbo, amazing cars to drive, ain't quite as fast as a TD04 starlet. And his is a 1.8. But it's a different kind of fast. So it's all really what you want. Also he spent a fortune turboing it. And the money he spent turboing it could have had a forged Glanza. But he didn't want that. He wanted a two seater roofless car. And it's a cracking motor. I've just read Ollie's post. And Yeah I agree. And I've been in both very recently. Brother has a td04 GT.

Alright mate, Just a quick note I bought one of fleabay new, and it was broken. And they've ceased communications so no refund £15 and it feels rather plasticy So avoid this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301456592522?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Yeah it's a good write up. Things like braided oil return hoses and a decent boost gauge are a must

How can I tell if a gt gearbox is a lsd one?

Yeah lol, that's pretty obvious when you know what you're looking at. Mines definitely not then. -
♪♫ Charlotte's Purple Glanza Project ♪♫
Calum122 replied to funny onion's topic in EP91 Glanza Progress Blogs
Aww no! But fair play sounds like you're on the case about it anyway. Good news about the MOT. Still looks like a smart motor -
Have a ganders in the tutorial guidance section mate. There is a really good write up in there explaining the bare minimum that you should cover when getting a new motor. But it's the same as any other motor. If you head over to TGTT then have nicely formatted service sheets that you can use to record what you have achieved.

You say that but the experts seem to disagree. Regardless of how often you change your oil, it's always going to be better to run a higher quality oil for long periods of time, rather than a lower grade oil for any time at all. But by lower grade I'm talking Morrisons own oil or Car Lube or something similar. For some of you, like Colin, a rebuild might just be one of those things and is second nature. But I'd prefer not to rebuild the engine at this stage. I've been using Magnetec but I think I'm going to bung that on, use Silkolene like I do on my bikes. But from what I hear, 6 or 1

Haha, nice. I'm keeping my eyes peeled on this one.

Calum122 replied to Rocketbunny's topic in Drivetrain & Transmission
I bet that was quite a surprise when you found out you had an LSD box -
Lol tell me about it. I don't even need seats, just the rails. But the chances of getting them without the seat I'll just have to roll around with no back part to the seat. Be alright.

Uprated Gear Linkage Installation Help?
Calum122 replied to Calum122's topic in Drivetrain & Transmission
Right I just want to finish this off and say I used a dremel with a very light grit sanding tool just to take the edge off slightly, fitted the bushes a treat. not so much that it was sloppy, it's still tight but no where near as tight as before. Then took some wet and dry to the shaft and cleaned it up and that slide over nicely. Again this was light ten-twenty seconds just rubbing the shaft <giggity> to make it easier to get on. Job done. Took 5-10 minutes in total. Repacked with grease.- 13 replies
