I'm using the Quaife chain driven diff with the in built reverse thats operated by a cable.... Due to reasons not easyly explained I haven't got it yet.....

But on the bright side I had my Summit Racing order come though today.....
My pedal box and Electric water pump......

A great Idea that has come from Marlin Cars, is a modification you can do to your 4 Pot calipers to convert them into a Hand Brake system. While keeping them as the normal rear brakes aswell....

So I have weighed the Cossy Rear Calipers (They have hand and foot brake combined) and they are 3.6kgs, the Wilwood 4 pots I want (And can now have !!)
on the rear brakes are 1kgs, and the conversion kit weighs less than 0.5kgs..

So there's another double bonus 4pots on the rear and a weight saving of 4kgs....

I live for these days.....

Look at this months Sep issue Kit Car Mag, it's all in there .....
Or go to

I Love it, the products you are using are quality!! and to top it off you are just not chucking everything expensive because they cost the most everything is thought out !! Absolutely cant wait to see this thing on the road.
