  1. John, Any news on CG locks? Ian
  2. John, It really depends on what you plan on doing with the car (i.e track days) and what sort of budget you have. The newer 4 pots are definately a good upgrade for occasional track time. They will require 16" wheels though, so cost can mount. If you are serious about track days then AP 6 pots are the way to go (these will need bigger wheels again) For discs and pads, i've heard good things about the DBA discs. I've used tarox and mintex discs with excellent results. Although i have heard of folks having problems with warping of tarox discs under heavy use. For pads Mintex 1144 will give excellent braking under road conditions and some track use as will the Ferrodo DS' pads. Mintex 1155's are better for track use but don't perform as well when cold. Some folks have complained about squealing with mintex pads, this isn't a problem i've had on any of my cars. I think you need to make sure the caliper faces are properly cleaned and make sure you use the rubber anti squeal shims supplied with the pads. While doing the above it's probably a good thing to look at brake fluid. I think as standard your car should be running on DOT4 (my 95 WRX is) This is more than adequate for daily driving and occasional track days. So just get some more DOT4 and flush out the old stuff to make sure it's all nice and clean (brake fluid can retain water over time). However if you want to go tracking a lot then going to DOT5.1 is the recognised way to go. This withstands a higher temperature however it does require that you completely clean out all your brakes lines as DOT4 and 5.1 are not to be mixed. DOT 5.1 will also require changing more often than DOT4. Hope this helps Ian
  3. LOL Snap It's obv the weapon of choice!
  4. Hi Gee, I think Cal has the same one as me. B. Hague camera mounts I went for the complete kit as it has the suction mount and a clamp, so can pretty much be used anywhere in the car (or outside if you feel brave!) They were quick at delivering too. Ian
  5. Get in there 15/15! Disclaimer: I didn't get that score because i'd seen all the films

  8. Will do. It's proving difficult though. All seem to be down south.
  9. Anyone know of somewhere that could make up a cage for my 924S in central Scotland? Ian
  10. The parts department will be in Stirling too. but doesn't open until 1st June (Despite being told by the sales folks that it's open now!) Here's hoping they do the business! Ian

  15. Dave, I'll go with the majority. I just need to get my jaws wired and lose a stone or three Ian
  16. Dave, I blame you for this...got it all get the safe...must be missing the code. Ian edited to say i found the code using google because the url given doesn't work!
  17. Steve, I'm sure you'll get through the tyres quick enough I keep looking at the pics and those wheels are the danglies on a silver wagon. Very nice indeed. Ian
  18. Looking good Steve. What tyres is it on? What specs? Welcome to the wagon club, you should be able to get a decent sized TV in the back
  19. Cheer Dougs. Water off a ducks back mate. I was trying to be helpful initially and point out why folks weren't breaking down his door to give him money. My 2nd reply was a bit tongue in check after RR trying to be a smartar5e. If it's any help, i could maybe organise a group buy for something that anyone needs at a good price.
  20. That doesn't work. You sure the product you are trying to sell isn't call MEGUIARS? Internet isn't so good if you don't give the right company name to check It also doesn't tell us which items you are planning on bulk buying nor does it tell us what kind of discounts you are offering?
  21. Perhaps everyone is the same as me and don't really know what the products range is, what normal prices are and what sort of discount to expect. I have some clear coat polish and gold summit shampoo which is pretty good stuff, but what else is there in the range? what sexy stuff do they have?? Ian
  22. Just did a quick search and the bad news is she's 51 The good news is Jessica Simpson is playing Daisy in the new film The new Daisy
  23. She's in her 50's now!
