i am sure i had to shorten the gearbox mounting bit of angle iron on mine mind you was a long long time ago! should be plently of room on the sump as when i shortened mine i exteneded mine into the shallow part, making it deeper at that end dave

you mean to say that i am the only one with a garage like that ? must admit its tidier than mine though

you will need 2 extra ones to follow the rear suspension down to the rear hubs you will eaither need a friendly motor factors or a pipe flaring tool for the end of these where are you ? i have one, but maybe someone is closer?

i know a good welder in northamptonshire he live works in yelden near rushden pm me an i will sort it for you

recent dont matter piddy! could i have a looksee at your details ? the total kitcar site appears to have a load of bad links in the sva section!!!! dave

just been sent form 627/1 and a v55/5 by the dvla cos northampton wont let me make my own up :angry: the v627 is fairly staright forward but not sure how much of the 55/5 i can fill in ? anyone had to do one recently ?

its a 205/50 r15 86v sportrac with about 6mm tread left on it was on an alloy wheel i bought as my spare £10 plus postage ? or come pick it up!

had another look at mine today took the spring off and slid the hub up the chrome shaft till the wheel (15 inch) rubbed on mine that takes about 4 1/4 inches of travel the bump stops the video tells you to fit are never gonna stop any thing cos they aint long enough i amthinkin of fitting something on the shaft to allow the bumpstop to do its job was considering either a piece os tell tube about 1 1/2 diameter with a washer welded in each end to centralise it and give the bump stop something to hit cut to length so that the bumpstop starts working at maybe 3 1/2 inches of travel any comments?

no tension on them but for a supersonic job they realy want taking out and the end or the shaft drilling and tapping to something a bit bigger they are a barstweard size too at the moment so think you will struggle to find anything else to fit

seem to remember that these tend to crack anyone got any photo's of where the extra bracing goes?

1/2 inch more would certainly be better fnar fnar i have most of the ford bumpstop in mine, was thinking of putting somthing solidish in top maybe a bit of plastic gas pipe or something so it actually does something. at the moment the car would be ploughin the road before that did anything

what size wheels have you got now? i fitted 15 inch to mine because i could see the problem occuring mind you mine aint on the road yet was wondering about fitting a bigger bump stop to mine... something to stop the springs compressing any further before the hubs hit the wheels think mark kingston has experience with this and has fitted extra's ?

sorry matt the other half is no-where to be found will see if it turns up in the next few days but dunno where else to look now :boohoo:

will have another look this morning now the concrete has gone hard enuff to walk on i very much doubt/know that i havent thrown it out, so its here somewhere will keep you posted

ok matt will see if the other one can be found lurking in the undergrowth (anyone who has seen my back garden will know what i mean about lurking and undergrowth!

you want that sort matt ? if so will look the other one out. its a little awkward looking till the weekend cos i am pouring concrete and dont fancy doing the long jump to look!

think i have some rusting in the garden somewhere will oik them out tomorow eve

oh you are awful actually quite nice seats realy. had my backside in them for 80k think thats a good enuff reason to scrap them on there own!

same here think the video mentions this if you havent fallen asleep first ?

they are getting closer to the skip

free to anyone who wants to come and collect 2 seats from a metro gta, clean with no cuts too wide for the 2b but maybe someone wants/needs them they are in northamptonshire and are in the way will be in the skip soon!

yes but there was a whole host of other electronics in the donor

would have thought uncle hernry would have fitted diodes as standard to have protected the donor ? but obviosly not! :boohoo:
