Cool, thanks guys. I think I'll just take a punt then. Stick them on and see what they look like / how the feel. Thanks

Hi all, I recently bought 4 shocks and springs with Koni adjustable inserts fitted. The guy said it will sit lower with them on but I'm not sure what springs they have on them and if they're aftermarket or not. They're just black springs with no real markings on them. How would I know if they're not...

I had equal noise but not exactly the same. Especially in Summer or when the motor is very hot. For me it seems as an alternator bearing but it could be also worse - more important bearings. I made only one small trick - higher idle with 20-30 rpm more. Now i have no the bad noise... :-k Interestin...

Sorry, meant stick it to the sideskirt and to the body of the car? I think I will do both 🏼 Cheers all

Cheers guys. So would you glue both sides? Or just onto the top of the skirt?

Hi all,
Ive purchsed a new set to replaced the brittle old shrunken ones.

Any tips on how to fit? I saw a set for sale in the US that came with loctite. Should I be using some kind of glue? I feel like it should be a simple job but I just couldnt get my head around it!

Thanks in advance peeps

I used to get that kind of noise but only when I turned the engine off. Sounds like something else is blowing as well. Really?? I’ll just keep an eye on it then for now. But its interesting you say it sounds like something else is blowing as it is a bit ticky/ tappy and has been since I got it. It’...

🤔 now you mention it the idle was a little erratic. They kept dropping. Also have a small rad leak. Although wrong end for the noise. Gonna pop back out now and see if I can isolate the noise to a specific area. Wish me luck! Ha Update - Ok. So I’ve been out in the garage and ran it for ...

Haha no worries, thanks for having a listen. It’s weird, it’s literally the first time I’ve heard it ☹️ When it’s idling the noise was constant but goes as soon as you give it some revs. It has sat for a while only getting small runs or a warm up run in the garage. Bl**dy uk wea...

First time I’ve taken her out in a few weeks and I’ve noticed the engine is now making a strange buzzing noise on idle. As soon as you add revs it goes. Trying to think if it could be something I’ve done recently but don’t think they would have caused it. I’ve replaced the aerial wth a new one (whic...

Thanks guys. Ill get underneath her the weekend and have a play with the wire brush

Hi All, Ive just purchased a Mica blue Mk1 T-Bar. Shes in beautiful condition. Arches all solid :thumleft: If you look closely she does have a few little paint defects but all slight and well hidden. Shes just been through an MOT and passed without any advisories! I've had MK1's before and I know th...

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for your help

I sold my last 2 about 5 years ago now. Always had a soft spot for them which just won't go away! I had 3 Mk1's and about 9 MK2's in my time. Now I finally have a garage im looking for a MK1 project. My wedding is taking most of my funds so im looking for a cheap MK1 that I can do up over time. I sa...

That was my sisters boyfriends old MR2 (James Mays) he bought it after a bit of persuading from me. Was immaculate when he bought it about 3-4yrs ago and other than a scuff on the wing and paint fade it was in good condition when he sold it 6months ago.. Been a hard 6months for her by the looks of i...

.... so based on those figures in PSI, my readings seem about correct (1Bar = 14.56PSI)? Only i have an indicator that flashes red when my gauges go over or under a certain amount and its been set to go off or flash like mad when the oil pressure drops too much which obviously only happens at idle. ...

Brilliant, thanks guys. The gauge was a pretty damned expensive one so hopefully accurate. Ill check my figures... Great help

Cheers uglee

Hi guys, on a tubby what kind of oil pressure should i expect from normal everyday driving - by normal i mean taking it moderately easy :) I have an oil pressure gauge and it usually sits around 3-3.5bar when in motion. And when idling drops right down. I would expect it to drop but it practically h...

Hi, ive gone and bought myself a Rev1 tubby. Love everything about it but ive always had Rev2 + because i prefer the deaper bumper. How easy is it to get the lower bumper spoiler or splitter (whatever you want to call it :roll: ) and fit it to a Rev1 bumper? I had a quick look at the parts catalogue...
