  1. The Arrays were supplied with 205's with the 2b plus. I've dropped mine to 195/50 x15 with no noticeable effects. Nick

    Spare Wheel Cradle

    How about getting hold of a space saver spare, then making a mount off the rear of the "hoop" for your bike. Best of both worlds then. HTH Nick
  3. I've got Cobra Roadster 7's and they fit with loads of room. I've had the RH supplied "jazz" seats and some that said "mamba" on them too. The 7's look the best, but the Jazz seats were the comfiest. Nick
  4. Sorry, not going to make it this evening, not taxed kit yet and busy tidying after having new fencing. Nick

    Midi strip fuse

    Sorry Matt, can't help with fuse size, but I'm off all week if you want to come round and look at my original wiring diagram, or haynes manual. Nick
  6. If the weather is OK I might take a run over, but I'm not going in the pub. Nick (and have a great holiday Andy)
  7. I've got a 2b and you can fit sierra seats in it (with a lot of stuff removed from the runners etc) I've got cobra roadster 7's in mine and there's loads of room around them. I did build it with the RH "jazz" seats in it, which fitted when modified. HTH Nick
  8. Alloy wheel refurbishment, when you've got seven it gets expensive. Oh and maybe an engine upgrade (I'd love a V8) Nick
  9. Sorry, can't remember. It was 13/14 years ago. The worse bit was where I had stored panels in the shed and sunlight had hit them. Logic seem to say heat the covering to aid removal then use acetone to remove residue/glue. HTH Nick
  10. Acetone based nail varnish remover and/or hair dryer helped when I did mine. Nick
  11. I must say, on every car I've had for the last 20 years at least, the fog lights only get used once a year at MOT time. Nick

    rear fog lights

    There's a diagram knocking about that gives dimensions for lights, but as for the brackets... I know it's a long time ago, but when I SVA'd mine, the brackets weren't good enough and I had to make something to stop the vibrating/moving. HTH Nick
  13. Good morning everyone, happy easter. Just finished breakfast here, admiring the view. Planning hot dogs, in the garden, for lunch. What's everyone upto today? Nick
  14. Q. Have you lost 1? or are you wanting to replace all/some of them? I think I may have a spare. I remember a fellow member giving me a spare after selling his Kit, but I've not seen it for a while. If you need just 1, I'll try to find it. Nick
  15. Also, it may or may not go through a relay. So the switch could be ok, and the relay or associated wiring could be faulty. My fog light switch has a 12v feed when headlights are on, an earth for illuminating the switch when switched on and a feed to the fog light, which then has an earth to complete the circuit. As mine only has 1 fog light I don't have a relay. HTH Nick
  16. 2nd vote for Dave at http://dampertech.co.uk/ As for measuring center to center, the measurement will be the same if you measure from the inner edge of the hole or shaft at one end to the outer edge of the hole or shaft at the other end (if the holes/shafts are the same diameter) HTH Nick
  17. Seeing as there are no car meets I thought we could have an Easter Sunday virtual meet. Get a photo between now and Easter, of your car, what you're doing or what you're drinking, post it Easter Sunday for a virtual get together. If you've got no photo, post a hello to those random people you get chatting to at car meets/shows. See you all next weekend Nick

    2B

    Welcome, there are no "off the shelf" GRP parts for a 2B and as they are generally larger than say a Locost, generic panels will probably need a lot of modifying. Luego do a larger 7 style car, so that may help. Vinyl wrap or paint is always an option. HTH Nick
  19. On a pinto EFi there's a valve type thing (can't remember its name) on the inlet plenum. When left it can start to stick and give symptoms similar to yours, it needs removing and cleaning with carb cleaner. Worth a try as it's an easy fix (It's held on with 2 nuts/bolts and has a wiring plug connected to it) HTH Nick
  20. Excellent work Andy, and I'm sure it was more fun with an "apprentice" Nick
  21. See my post regarding Stoneleigh. Postponed to possibly last weekend in June. Nick
  22. Hi all, just had a phone call from Stoneleigh Park Lodge saying the show has been postponed, and the provisional date is the last weekend in June. HTH Nick

    Recommendation

    Yep, I drive through Laughton most weeks, always got an MX5 or 2 outside. Nick

    Recommendation

    A few local guys have had bike carbs set up by Autotronics in the past. Nick
