    With Scammonden Dam cancelled last weekend due to fire risk I made the long trip to Gurston Down Hillclimb for the first time this weekend. Ironically enough on the Sunday, the meeting was cut short due to (amonst other things) a Fire in the field at the finish line.

    Is there much drone with a miltek on the motorway, around 2-2.5k My Cobra has been on a while now and getting close to decibel limit at certain tracks, reads upto 106db whilst it sounds amazing coupled with the rest of my setup, the drone around 2-2.5k can be ear bleeding at times on long journeys. I either have to drop a gear to 5th so 70mph is around 3k or go 80mph+ in 6th, neither is ideal. I dont think swapping the mid pipe back will lose too many horses if any but if the sound and drone decrease should be worth it,

    The kw suspension really takes the kerbs well. Its only the last corner that is a risk. 70mph with about 4ft grass before the barriers. Fortune favours the brave.

    Still had problems going into 4th so have reverted back to the OE shifter. Now feels much much easier (although more sloppy) going into all gears. I think the coolerworx shifter mounting to the tunnel and not the gearbox means under heavy loads when the gearbox is moving around slightly the rifle precision of the shifter does not marry upto the position of the linkage. never the less, the oil situation remains the same in that I will only be using the redline stuff moving forwards.

    £250 inc Royal Mail Tracked 24hr postage. (or can collect from Pontefract, West Yorkshire) Fitted to my car for the last 2 years, does not lend itself to a race application in my view (which is 90% of my use) but feels awesome on the road. Very precise and mechanical gear change. 40% shorter throw than oem and relatively straightforward to install. very good condition as per pictures. does not come with anything else other than the shifter unit itself. I think you re-use existing bolts. Plenty of you-tube videos showing installs.

    Caster issues?

    G1en replied to arcdef's topic in Servicing

    Its not that far out to be fair. but you can only adjust caster with adjustable top arms as far as i know, you just need to reduce the right side by 0.5-0.75 deg and it will be near as, which you will be able to do with adjustable camber arms that also have caster adjustment. If your on stock upper arms your stuck with what you have.

    2nd Event of the year Is there a better Circuit in the UK than Anglesey when the sun is shining?

    Sounds like its just come to the end of its life like you have stated. To be honest at 64k it may be on the second clutch in the cars life already, they don’t last as long as other vehicles but thats just a blanket statement, obviously tons of variables involved. I am on my 4th clutch in 20k miles but thats with lots of track abuse. Lots of traders on here can sell/fit or both for you a new clutch disc, flywheel, slave either separate or full kits.

    Had my first race event last weekend, around 200 road miles plus track time and no issue. If your not sure what to use, I would recommend this over anything else I have used.

    Sorted it. Because I have the module wired in (CS Burnout Mod or whatever you want to call it) that disables TC and SC I had to disable that and then drive for a period co the whole system could reset. just turning it off/on and starting car wasn't enough. And I had been driving back from dyno with it on which must bypass the system so the ABS light didn't clear. I thought it highly unlikely there would be a fault if nothing was messed with, its common that lights throw up after a rolling road session as i assume rear wheels going 150mph whilst front wheels are stationary throws the system into meltdown. My OBD reader also doesn't read ABS/SRS faults/codes just the main Engine ECU so it would never have detected anything anyhow. Something for others to bear in mind. Hope that makes sense to everyone (but prob doesn't lol)

    Advice Needed Just been to a rolling road for a dyno run as part of a new championship i am doing this year. On drive back home noticed the ABS and Parking Brake warning lights are on. I have disconected battery and reconnected Checked with my OBD reader - No codes stored or pending I have the module wired in that permanently disables/ re-enables TC and SC this is still working fine and has no impact on the ABS light switching it off/on Checked alll relevant fuses (i think) and all seem ok Checked behind brake pedal and both switches that connect and all seems ok took it for a drive after turning off/on and disconnecting battery and still on (stays on from ignition) Only thing left is checking abs sensors but would this throw a code? How will i know which one might be faulty without swapping the lot? On the rolling road it was slipping a lot and i am wondering if that has caused the lights, I dont know if they were on straight after session or not, there was no mapping or anything involved, it was just a power run (or 3) to determine the power of the car then it was weighed. cheers

    my friends car, cough cough.... was struggling to get through this year and the tester knew a few tricks, blocking the other tailpipe with a rag and and putting a rag around the probe on the tailpipe being tested drops the emissions flow and reduces engine revs so the emissions readings lowered, my friend said he could see the numbers drop on the computer and it worked a treat, apparently.....

    It will be the slave cylinder. highly unlikely to be the master. On your model I think you are in luck and it is on the outside of the gearbox, fairly straightforward job to replace, all traders on here sell the replacement kits. Its the HR model 07+ that I have which is a pig where the slave is inside the housing.
