  1. HTC powder in a stainless tub with a burner under heat up to something like 60 degrees leave for couple hours. Then wash off with hose or water blaster if you have one

     

    I have no burner to put under a tub but have a big arse sink and boiling water? where to you get that shiz from?

     

     

    Have you tried dragons breath? I haven't personally but I know a few people who have that say it's the freaken tits.

     

    ​Yeh seen that Dragons breath shit on wheels no idea about engine parts though

  2. We are with classic haven't claimed but they are good to deal with and recently changed there policy wording so that

    agreed value is agreed value and won't go to the books etc on it

  4. yeh Adrian toasted his car pretty good, I was right behind him when it happened (throttle linkage broke and jammed under the brake, wheel spinning top of 3rd no chance) Mates missies got taken to hospital on a stretcher but was just a case of whip lash after getting knocked out.

    Then my boy Mookie who was in the back of that jumped in my bros 626 and he spun and just missed the wall. So now we have banned him from our cars hahahha

    My cars a sack of shit I want to burn it so much myth

  5. I'll bring the rx2 coupe... Just ran her at the classic trials... Managed a 1.26 around Hamptons...not quite strawbridge's 1.22... But getting there.

     

    Good shit! would be keen to blat around the track with this thing, whats your setup like? with the changes we have made we should easily dip below the 1:20's now looking forward to Chrome in a few weeks to test it all out

  6. made/got some bung moulds omade/hacked up/fibreglassed/bogged sanded then twenty years later these turned up

    I only got flares so this thing wouldn't rub its nipples off on the track again, the inside lips of my rim are so fucked up from last time

  8. Keen to know how much battery these things will suck, our car only gets driven every 2nd or 3rd weekend if the weather plays ball.
    I don't like trickle chargers I've seen to many fires lately due to battery chargers going spazz

  9. Hey mate, Last I spoke to him, Mike at Mike Shaw Fibreglass Hamilton (MS fibreglass) said he had a mould for rx2 bonnet, (outer skin only, but could make bracing to suit) it would be perfect to get one made to glass up to your existing frame. 

    He also said he thought he had front guard moulds as well.

     

    Hey bud already onto this!!!, he's making me one up as eek speak, might just ditch the whole frma e and run bonnet pins to stop this issue every happening again, was going to go carbon but a bit to expensey :) he does still have guard moods but will sort that at a later date when ride height castor etc. is locked in as a lot needs cutting from factory guards

  10.  

    Race 3 from the weekend (handicap) finally started getting used to the car, anyone know why Im getting a killer bounce mostly around the sweeper? is this from my 4 link binding up?

     

    Also yes I know diff is getting changed to a 5.1 so I can actually use the power band and 4th gear

  11. How fun was it fanging that thing around the track though man? Jealous.

     

    Was MEGA FUN!!! just putting some go pro footage together now, will take 500years to upload but will put the link up once done!

    Also managed to snap the speedo needle going over 120MPH, made a hell of a noise in the last few laps thought my gearbox had dropped a bearing
