  1. For the rear, what about putting in a sheet of MDF from the windscreen down to the seats? Gives you free space for the speakers to mount flush on the MDF. Cuts out the two angles and makes use of the void in between if that makes sense. Cover the mdf in black/whatever colour carpet and it would look pretty tidy.

    Took the screen out of my today and thought it would look good 8)

  2. Cheers, will have a looksie for suitable gloves. You got plans to use a vacuum with that setup to clear the dust inside the unit? Do you have anything inside that the parts sit on or is it empty? I'm going to try some BBQ grills. I'm going square over a drum though as I have tools for woodworking but not sheet metal so would make it hard work to use a drum. Will post up pics in a couple weeks when i've got something made up 8)

  3. Thats mean 8)8)

    Going to design one up this weekend I think, by that I mean google search for pics and copy some other design :lol: Probably going to make it out of MDF and chuck some wheels on it to keep that shit outside. Did some blasting with glass, and made a right mess outside :(

    You reckon you could fit a wheel inside that enclosure? I'm wanting to have one big enough to do wheels. How long are those gloves and where ya get them from?

  4. does a car need a horn to be legal?

    As a side note to this, it doesn't have to be on the steering wheel :wink: My sister bought an ex disability car that had the horn on the door panel for your elbow to press. As well as the steering wheel (which hd stopped working). Had an argument about it with the WOF guy so printed up the requirements and got the item taken off the list :lol:

    Only has to be accessible to the driver or the likes. I just couldn't be fucked fixing the steering wheel button as I couldn't get the damn surrounds off.

    /random useless bit of info.

  5. Does anyone have or have access to a lathe?

    I have an axle that i'd like to get shortened and have the diameter reduced along its length to 25mm with a couple of smaller step downs on the spline end.

    Anyone able to help me out? :) Happy Cheaper the better :oops:

    Cheers. Any recommendations for places to go for this would also be a great help.

  6. Rules suck for those that take ages to get their oldschool cars on the road!!!

    1987 Gemini

    1996 Levin

    So yeah 0%

    Not really fair considering...

    1973 escort - waiting on funds

    1980 corona - waiting on miracle

    1982 starlet - had 3 years just not on road for much of that..

    3/5 = 60% if I twist the rules :lol:

    Excluding parts starlet which was fully running, just no reg. RIP

  7. I could be wrong.... but i've heard people mention 'donuts' before, which I assume is 4 90s in one ;) Might be a cheaper way to do it, then chop them to suit. This was probably in regards to intercooler piping, but you never know!
