currently fitting LSD, got some clio coupe steels for it (williams spares). Engines no-where near, need to sort clutch as the flywheels soooo much taller on the b14. Gonna need to space the arm/ release bearing an inch forwards. I'm mocking things up with vario parts, the splines on the clutch shat ...

Hi, i bought Miniswifts last diff, after testing the first ever. Ive had a similar problem with the spacer / worm gear retainer ring being too big for the crown wheel. Its currently at the machine shop with the crown wheel to get it to sit flush. I need to get shorter bolts too. M12 x 1.25 x 30mm at...

Hi all, need the part that goes between the front rubber engine mounts and the block its self. They're like two parts linked with a thin bar.

Cheers Mark! It's been off the road now since sept 28 when the MOT expired. Been welding the drivers inner wing, sill, floor, jacking point. Still got a bit to finish, and a little patch on the other inner arch. Few suspension bits and its going for test. Bought some twingo RS 133 seats, 2" spring a...

I didn't use it in extreme temperatures, range would have been 0 - 28 deg C ambient temp
At 3psi my set up worked using 95 RON
At 11psi my set up required 97 RON minimum

I ran my 360 10:1 CR at 11psi on LH2.4 and matching EZK. It had no problems at all. The retarding of ignition timing by the knock sensor due to pre ignition, would have no effect on said pre ignition. I used an A cam which may have had a difference in stopping pre ignition. 95 octane fuel would caus...

Welcome!

Electrical bodgery is my absolute least favorate part of owning old cars

The last weeks been a bit quiet. Swapped the ridiculous gear knob for my mates snapped old E34 one. same time I had to adjust the reverse gate as 2nd gear was always a struggle, its sweet now. Rigged up a 12v fan heater to the rear screen as i reckon every line is broken. Fan works better but might ...

Hi, cheers I've had a look at the photos on your blog and it all looks familiar to my corsa epas system. Will give him a shout when i get round to starting that bit and see what light he can shed. Will watch for the horn ring placement.

So my 2nd shot at 300 ownership. The car's a 1986 340 DL 1.4 in Red, because red cars are the best! https://ochluw-ch3301.files.1drv.com/y4mOBp0W5v9ovQg9zmmpLNYx6UHlyhBv8HWEO2cEW47CVNui4EtT5AhPJmX1oAryqsR2-0uMe7-RBIhu7Ido92BEYE181suRpzAZvpBwRjWbH1N5ZroYLHaQg4d82JG1oJyQpYksdeUqRWpxerOwJ8HN4OPjQ8756Wb...

Ooh no way! thought it hadn't been done yet. Corsa system? I have the column out my old corsa b and a spare 300 column. I sold it to a lad in Stornorway called Tim. Hope it's still loved :D Been doing more looking and the K-type renault engines should fit too. So 1.4 and 1.6 16v with cam phasing. Bi...

Cheers guys! I'm u decided. I've got really into EFI so whatever i do the carb isn't staying. First thought was BMW 3l 6 pot tdi but i kinda like the diddy engine at the mo. Been talking about other conversions and stuff but the one i wanna look into a bit is an E7J Renault energy 1.4 on fenix 5 man...

Hi, I used to have a 360 GLT which I turbo'd, tested the first LSD in and then sold a few years ago, and regretted big time. I got a 740 saloon and stuck a turbo lump in that and have been dailying it since then. Had a brief stint in a 04 V40 TDI and learned a load of remapping. I recently swapped i...

Hello, I tested the first of these LSD's for Miniswift. It was in my 360 which was a PAS car. I didn't feel any real difference in the steering being heavier because of the rear wheels being more constrained in relation to each other. In fact i can't remember any real downsides at all, It made drivi...

Also something I'm doing in the 744, just i have the original tax disk

anyone got a new disk this month? mine came on non-perforated paper, no metallic ink. The latter attached said they were running their stocks out for 'value for the taxpayer' lol.
