I am having the same problem and not sure what my answer is as it is getting annoying and means I don't use the car as scared of being left stranded.
Paul, can you explain more of what you mean? How do I get an alternator with the regulator built in?

First time we (I say we, I sat and watched whilst someone else kindly did it for me, but I was very supportive! :D ) changed the plastice gear but very quickly it happened again so we realised the housing was chewing the white plastic gear (sorry...

Re: Fire
Superchargers also have an inherent design flaw.... the battery securing bracket runs dangerously close to the positive battery terminal, over time the plastic coating comes off the bracket and it is very easy for the main terminal to weld itself to that bracket. If i owned a SC i'd ditch that batt...

Re: The twincharger lives!
Congratulations Toni. I found out about this when I bought my SC and then I thought it was nearing completion.
This was two years ago.
Anyhow am looking forward to seeing it sometime.

White Rev 5 n/a t-bar, Hertford 2nd May, evening
T112 PKU. You were driving along the A414 and then turned away to Balls Park.
I was in the mondeo and went around the roundabout with you and then in front of you going up the hill.
Needs a wash!

Saw a blue Mk2 on Monday along Gascoigne Way but he appeared to ignore me (I was in my SC). I will be out and about more now so hopefully I will see others around.
I am interested in meets but have little time.

Re: Herts Meet
I would love to meet up but cannot do the 18th May at all. I fly back from India that morning and have a big birthday party that evening so need to sleep in the afternoon.
I am still very much interested if you do another date!

Re: MR2 and Supercharger Decals
That is worth knowing.
I am intending to get my SC resprayed at some point after some minor bodywork touchups along with the brake light spoiler so will need some of these.

I am hoping to rely on the following exchange:
Officer: So, Madam, how fast do you think you were going?
Kate: Not a clue, but doesn't she look gorgeous?
Officer: Good point, on your way.

And you can bet when we do rearrange, it will be manky weather.
Never mind, we met last year between Christmas and New Year and it was sleeting so we are hard core.
