I see your back to being friends with everyone again since I have been away, thats sweet
I never fell out with anyone on the forum apart from you?

As for brakes, I am still open to spacer-free BBK suggestions.

His AP calipers wont hold up long on UK roads with no dust seals The AP, Endless, Brembo or Alcon BBK kits are a different prospect

Said it 5 times already and everyone else is correct get the Dixcel disks and pads and also the spoon calipers (I have a set you can buy ) you will likely out brake anyone using those hispec kits and it will be better balanced as well, still waiting to be proved wrong

Not sure on the cage, but my seatbelt issue is a PITA for passengers so I might have to do it for that reason alone!
Have a look at the Modifry belt locks
I found them to be a good compromise between a CG lock and a harness
They lock the belt completly so it locks the lap section and the torso section unilke the CG lock

Yep I agreed Tan. They are a great seat for the money.

They are now going in this car

How's yours these days?
Big Gay Wing for the Big Gay Win! I've gone through a set of Kumho KU36 on the street in less than 6 months but would NEVER take it off, it's amazing! Corner so much faster with it. Can't wait to test it out on track at end of August. BTW KU36 massive thumbs up! Swapped back to my Advan RGs with Toyos on for MOT and they are horrible!

Looking good. I bet they aren't fun to keep clean

I'd like to use some different tyres but A048 is the regulation tyre.

I called them yesterday to ask if they would do me a M compound in the rear sizes I need, but they were rather unhelpful Really doesn't help...
