  1. they key goes in the passenger door fine but will only turn to 45 degrees and wont unlock the door? i cant get the door card off with the door closed can i?? the drivers side works fine but doest trigger the central locking thats all
  2. would anyone be interested in doing a group purchase to secure a discount with AP? im happy to sort it out if there is enough interest?
  3. i like the "offical" modifaction!! lol yeah i just wasnt sure if 330s with a 4 pot apposed piston kit was a little excessive? i would have thought 304s were ample?? http://www.apracing.com/info/index.asp? ... 2F%3E_1064 for those that are interested here is the info
  4. did you do your handles yourself bud? i love them!
  5. so after being a way for a few weeks and leaving my poor car in the rain i have come back to a few problems! they might all be linked to a similar thing but im not sure! 1) the door membrane had come away causing the car to fill up with water :( - this is now sorted 2) the central locking no doesnt work - getting a new alarm soon so will get them to look at this. 3) the drivers door unlocks with the key but the passenger one wont unlock? consequently i cannot open this door? 4[strike:1lhlll9h]) the boot latch wont engage when closed, i have tried spraying WD40 on it but to no avail? does this require a new mehcnism?[/strike:1lhlll9h] cheers for any assistance!
  6. been looking at the AP racing products, what callipers and disks do you guys use/recommend using on a set up like this?
  7. Awsome thread! just had a good old read!! what putty did you use when sealing? where did you get it from? also might have to invest in some panels too for the summer time, its about time she had some new paint!!
  8. winner! will give this a try tonight!cheers guys! i also think i might need a new weather deflector on the outside of the window as i think this is letting a lot of water into the door shell and contributing to the problem.
  9. the boot latch is not engaging when the boot is closed? i have tried spraying WD40 into it etc but to no avail? is this common? do i need a replacement or is there and easy fix? thanks
  10. Cheers guys this looks like the problem! It has come away from the lower rear of the door and the front surrounding the speaker.the area behind the speaker also has a vertical rip of about 120mm.how would u recommend repairing this?
  11. its not a small amount tho. i have been away for a week and it has rained a lot here but the carpet is sodden to the point where water if i press it down water sits on top of it but again only on the drivers side. could this still be the door membrane?
  12. My poor rado has recently started to accumulate water in the drivers side carpet!! are there any key areas that lead to this? sunroof blockage for example or do the runners along the roof allow water in if the silicon has dried and cracked? thanks
  13. lol ok thanks! i need a new alarm fitting so maybe ill just get it all done in one
  14. Yeah so my central locking has stopped working?any ideas or advise as to where to look to try and fix it? cheers!
  15. what other essentials upgrades would people recommend? ive got 312mm brakes but anything else?
  16. Hi Guys, Im currently designing a pedal box for a space framed single seater ( not my C!!) and was wondering if any of you have undertaken anything like this in the past and can offer any advice? the clutch is hand operated so it only needs 2 pedals but it needs to be compact, movable to accommodate different driver heights but most importantly stiff and light! any ideas or know what i can read to get some headway on this? thanks
  17. yeah ive looked at pistonheads and autosport and am composing adds at the moment thanks. just looking for as many outlets as possible, hoped someone might have some racing connections who would know more detailed specifics hadnt thout of motorsport magazine thanks

  22. Hi guys, After munching my way through this ive got a pretty comprehensive shopping list for my VRT but I was wondering what turbo and subsequent oil feeds you would recommend and from who? Im looking for 350-400ps ideally. Thanks
  23. its ok it just means we all need to charge our engines to 300 minimum! :D
