  1. I think he's already answered that question... Why don't you stick the GPS immobiliser on the fuel pump or starter?
  2. This volatility is awesome!
  3. Coronavirus sale now on!
  4. Shervin is the man when it comes to alarms and trackers. Speak to him if you're interested. If your insurer has demanded the installation of a tracker and you can't/don't want to seek an alternative policy, then I'm afraid you will have to comply with their demand else they could refuse to insure your car or perhaps propose to remove the agreed valuation.
  5. This. For the record, I am no expert but it is highly unusual to wire the ignition cut at the ECU.
  6. Speak to Shervin, he does this for a living bud.
  7. Do you have any issues with your EGT with that set up?
  8. Perfect working condition. These run better AFRs on the dyno than the typical HKS FCDs which have a tendency of running borderline lean, even on its highest setting! Price is £30 delivered.
  9. These need a constant power source, right?
  10. You could just use your existing engine's sump and mounts though I think.
  11. Thank you for your kind offer but I think it would probably better suit the club car!
  12. Are you sure you're not just referring to relays as ECUs?

    Very helpful information Frank, thank you for taking the time to share it. I already have the OS Giken 1.5 LSD fitted so I guess that's one less thing I have to worry about! All things considered, I think I will have to compromise and go with 35 profile tyres on the rear. Reason being; I need at least 295s at the back in order to put the power down and sadly, no mainstream tyre manufacturer produces readily available tyres in that size with a 40 profile. So, in the unfortunate scenario I suffer a blow out or the tyre sustains some sort of irreparable damage, I will effectively be at the mercy of an international company, which will undoubtedly leave me stranded for at least a few days whilst the replacement tyre is shipped, at an extortionate cost no doubt, due to the urgency. In the ideal world, and as I have eluded to in the past, I would prefer a larger side wall at the rear, for the various reasons that you and I have catalogued previously; however, this world is far from ideal and that is why I think a slight hit on the rear profile would be worthwhile. Going to a 35 profile from a 40 profile, is in the grand scheme of things, a relatively small change. This will not only afford me the luxury of having Michelin Super Sports as an option for tyres all round, but also allow me to stagger the front with a 40 profile, a stock feature I would have always wanted to keep proportionate.

    I'm not sure the tramlining is due to the width of the front tyres? I used to have that issue with 235s on the front. Turned out to be a geometry issue...

    Why would I need to remove the lip? If I go with a 35 profile on the rear, which I think would be reasonable compromise, I could probably get away with a 265/40 on the fronts? What do you think?

    What's the ride like? Presumably you guys run 265/35 fronts?

    Is there a way we can accurately calculate clearance or is it a matter of trial and error?

    The wheels are being custom made to my specification but I'd rather leave the rears at 11.5J for the sake of greater flexibility if I decide to use them in another application in the future. With a 305/40 tyre, any idea what the clearance would be like?

    I was hoping I could get away with 315s with a 40 profile, but I can't find any tyres in that size. The widest rear tyres I could find with a 40 profile is a 275 and that's not really going to cut it. However, if I go down to a 35 profile, there is plenty to choose from with a 295 width.
  21. The silver set, in my opinion, is more aesthetically pleasing as it provides a nice contrast to the car's body colour.
