  1. Nice write up, shimming is ok if you have the garage, tools & time to fiddle about with it but surley it would just be easier to buy a diff or just weld it if all your doing with the car is skidding? I hope the open carpark is not the the extent of your "drifting" capabilities but a mear test of the shims. Do you do any DWYB events?
  2. Yes +1 its quite different I had one for a couple of weeks but it wasn`t my piece of cake

    Yes but you should know how big a mans 2inches is: Yes the culprit is still in the garage, reluctant to sell it, i`m sure I`ll be back on it next year Yes must get to work with the drive out soon, just after I get to work on F1 2010,

    Same thing as I had last year - broken/shattered Heel Bone (Calcaneus) - looks like I might have to have an op as well as a whole year later mine is still not right Not good mate. Mine smashed as I had a hollow inside the calcanium making it weak. What I have just had done was to basically have it drilled out the a bone graft not nice at all

    I`m back on-line The opp went well.... so they say, but it really has put me on my a*** a much worse experience than when I actually broke it, which has taken me by surprise. But now 4days after the opp I`m starting to feel a little better, can almost focus on the screen. I now have 4 days of lost forum time to make up for, not to mention the new F1 game I payed over the odds for to be delivered by thursday 1pm, haven`t even attempted opening it yet Thanks to everyone who have left the kind messages of support, donations can be made to my paypal, daz_***********@hotmail.com Zed parts can be sent to: Darren-b 55 zed aveune ****88 **** Z33 ZED
  8. Just a thought, have you declared all your mods? if not I`d recommend getting them off before the the assessor comes around, insurance companies will find any excuse not to pay out,

  10. I`ve never seen Go Faster stripes in the engine bay before Sure I saw some in your engine bay Darren And yes the go faster stripes were a joke! Some carbon will be making an appearance, but he only stuff I am willing to put on there ATM is slightly expensive The only stripes you saw in my engine bay were the wires running to my electric SUPERCHAGER On a serious note, cant wait to see/hear your car with the exhaust & filters Maybe some carbon to, keep up the good work
  11. Quick tip, get a length of hose about 2metres, a funnel on one end and a medium sized nozzle on the other (one from a silicone tube does the trick) pop the bonnet, then feed the pipe down through the engine bay to the gearbox filler hole, zip tie your funnel to the bonnet catch & fill away

  13. I got my old mx-5 diff welded when I ordered my Torsen, is good if you just want to p*ss about skidding everywhere but destroys the handling of the car. Personally I find a torsen far superior to a viscous diff
  14. Sorry to hear about this Matt, hope you can get it sorted
  15. Or just get your open diff welded
  16. Theres your answer ^^^^^^^^
  17. Now when it gets that low you know for sure your having fun
