The top, i wish ....... Actually i have a cunning plan... On Saturday Mark@wim and a top tech will also be coming.... I will delegate
LOL delegation....you're learning fast Tony
-
LOL last nights 'boy racer' car not only had the spacers but also the camber They put a front strut brace on to try and stop the wheels parting company even more

Apparently a good 45deg helps you go fast round corners better

We watch it every week
They seem to use spacers like that on every car they do & I can't see how they can be safe and must put so much strain on (let alone the rest of the 'cut & shut' style of the cars) Every time they do a 'test drive' I wait for something to fall off or break
-
Anyone mind if I come along to watch?
h
I shouldn't think anyone would mind at all Plus it would give me someone to 'Roadster talk' with and convince you that you definately need to swap it for a Lex

Just found this thread & it refers to me!!
I suggested these as tyres to learn on, especially with N/A MX5's being rather gutless. They are easy to slide around on & its much kinder to your car, you'll pick up the steering techniques far far quicer (In an MX5) Also they are cheap loads on Ebay going cheap. With these on your MX5 feels feels like a V8 monster (well sort of)
I would'nt suggest for one second to use them on anything but beginner level practice days.
LOL yep its all your fault for causing Tony such confusion Declan ....nothing to do with me

'Fraid your 'red mist' expert will be doing her duty at Barkston Heath cheering Barrie & Dave on
Good luck & hope you have a great day though

The MK2 is for sale with a turbo janey and it has the potential to make 240bhp.
...then again I'm sitting on load of bhp and loads of torks so need to sell it...
Low cars are out of the question now....maybe able to get in, but theres no way I could get out Your 5 is a beaut so hopefully it will sell quickly and at a good price
Mabel has gone to Coventry so I've got a very nice 306 Rallye to play in now
-
Ha !! that will teach you for buying an even nicer car Justin
Me ? Jealous ?....never

I'd never heard of this
That said, most SW20s run adjustable height coil overs as their fairly cheap.
Theres quite a few roadster owners who have had the same prob although I think I'm one of the very few who admit to being a ninny
-
LOL, I had a similar situation, changed the shocks & springs to what was supposed to be -30mm and the car ended up higher (poss a lot to do with the fact that my model came with uprated bilsteins as standard which were obviously lower than stock)
So ended up having to get -45mm springs (more £'s) to actually lower it
-
How much is DWYB? Santa pod isn't that far away from me and I've a few sets of rear tyres to finish off, would be a right laugh in the MR2 with the weight in the wrong place!
Next one is 24th October Jon details etc here http://www.driftworks.com/forum/other-news...y-24th-oct.html

Doesn't suprise me
The Mk3's sit ridiculously high (they look like they have been jacked up) I'm suprised they manage to get round corners without tipping over and surely a change in suspension height will 9.9/10 times put the geo out
-
The movie is a non-starter for me
I had the same problem here at work Tony
Easy fix though - downloaded Quick Time player
linky here - its free & easy http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html

Time to get you smiling again and enjoying the fruits of your endeavours
We spent most of today finishing it off. Sam is off on a road test and shake down now.
be interested in Sams opinions and any recommendations he can offer
lets hope he stops shaking soon
I won't tell you what he said - give him a call tomorrow morning and find out. I think he's stopped shaking now
I'm in meetings all morning so I wont be at TDi Towers until around lunchtime.
c`mon Sam spill the beans
Barrie is out all day
-
Basically, for the last 18 months, i've been changing my classic car from a show piece - to a go piece!
Just wondered if anyone would be interested. Its a little different from the usual on here.....
I'd be interested Shaun, have always had a soft spot for Bugs
-
Barry and jane whos driving what out of you 2 ??? janey taking the lex ???
LOL No I'm not taking the Lex No only on the fact that I have only ever driven it once but I haven't got those things you guys have so therefore I'm way too much of a wimp and would probably end up in the Armco
Plus..... Its way nicer to sit in the passenger seat in the Zaf next to Barrie for a 4/5 hour drive
Plus.......Who would do the wobbly camera work if I was driving

Keep your eyes on the dyno cam today peeps
Ohhh does that mean I'm going to get sacked again for keeping an eye on the 'cam' all day :graduated:
I think that would be a bit harsh, after all you only looking after The Boss' best interests
LOL good point Mark especially as the Boss is watching it with me at the mo

Fancy a cuppa Mark
Thank you very much. Makes a change from making tea for you
Have you got any biscuits?
Funny you should ask.............Usually we have a supply of Choccy Digestives - but Barrie ate them all (although that was because I didn't make him any lunch the other day - no wonder he has sacked me )
-
I've sussed it..... janey makes the tea and whilst the men chatter about all the modification stuff she is off giving it a janey MOT stamp of approval........... Nice one janey :rolleyes_anim:
Oh no !!! I've been sussed
And there was me thinking my innocent little tea maker guise was fooling you all
-
Well seeing I've been sacked......Dynocam watching all day now
Fancy a cuppa Mark :rolleyes_anim:
-
Been 'watching' the dynocam on & off all day - is it working ? or is it just that the Tart hasn't been in there yet ?
-
LOL thats pretty quick! Nice white Advans also. Surely thats on track though, going out with the sole aim to destroy the tyres with high speed, big angle drifts, not on his Tesco's run.
Think that was just from 10mins 'P1' enclosure damage at Pod :graduated:
