    Gear selection issues

    @ the Doc. Absolutely spot on. Spend the money on strengthening the internals only to be let down by a spring. Any way to avoid or reduce the chance of this happening in future? Box is currently with Gearboxman awaiting new clips/springs

    Gear selection issues

    Took the car out for a long deserved lap the other week only to find it increasingly difficult to engage third gear. The higher the revs in second the harder it would be to engage third and past 6k it would crunch into third. I had the box with quaife internals fully overhauled with new...

    Shims

    Just been to have my R setup for running in (after 3 long years rebuilding) and the tuner has said that my head is so noisy that my knock sensor is picking it up - managed to turn the sensitivity down for now but obviously this will cause problems when it comes to big power maps (please someone...

Coolant leak is now sorted + inlet back on and before I did any additional electrical testing I...

    Wont turn over

    Hi Williams, This is my project R (still being built) and after the front end was finished and car was running I took it round the block and parked it in my garage so that I could work on the back end + get welding done. Once the back end was completed the problem surfaced. As nothing had been...

    Wont turn over

    Wont turn over

    Thanks for replies guys. I checked the alarm system for any reset options and fuses but couldn't find anything and double checked all connections on the starter. I will check all earths and try running a 12v feed directly to the starter on Friday when I get home. I'm hoping it is a simple...

    Wont turn over

    Just to add, when I used to connect the battery the alarm would always sound, but now it doesn't. Does it sound likely that I have a probl;em with the alarm system? Thanks
