still for sale...

bump!

getting stuck by into this again. removing some redundant wires from the engine bay loom at the minute. going to stick at it now and finish it. have the loom taped up and finished now more or less,started to fit back on stuff like the alternator,starter and vaccum lines.

i didnt mean it like that matty,i know your not making them,im just putting my name in that ill be making them,and that if anyone had any questions or doubts over the quality,just ask me. ;) cheers,ill message phil now.

it is me who is going to be making these,and why matty has started the thread.ive sent geo a message about them this morning. as for load bearing etc,i doubt that zep,bride,or even recaro put these into cars and go crashing them! these rails will be extremley strong,and be the exact same as bride/recaro/zep ones. ive made them before,in various guises,and im currently making up the recaro one for a member to test fit etc.

not looking to spend much more than 100 quid. anything else?

bump,im open to reasonable offers.

im not saying there is anything wrong with the way the rainsport perfrom,i just will never buy another over the soft tyre wall,esp as i like to test mine,or customers cars cars,hard in corners. i will be going for r1rs for my own car after the winter.

update 3/8/11 well after recently doing some work on andy87's car,it gave me some motivation to start sorting this thing out. i started with the brakes,removed the old ones,and noticed quite a bit of surface rust on the hubs and arms. due to the amount of salt of the roads from 2 winters ago im guessing,as the rest of the car is perfect. have a few scuffs on the inner arms from running big wheels a few years ago,so will tidy that up too. so im going to remove all,strip them back,prim and paint them,and refit.going to completlry polybush the arms while im at it. so i test fitted the cus

cheers. this monday on will see a big push on this in the evenigs. need it out on the road and ran in.
