Actually just took a closer look at the pictures. That's not rotten,its just a bit crusty. Drop the spring, then clean up the area and repaint. Should be fine for a few more years. C.

Upper spring seat. Probably a part you can buy and weld in. You might be able to cut the part from a good shell, then graft it in. Chris.

Hi, I'm on the lookout for a pair of headlights meself sir for the yellow peril pickup. If AndyP no longer needs a set and you're willing to sell then I'm game. Chris.

On the three door cars they route down the front of the arch. Not sure what options that would give you on a 5 door car but surely you could route the drain pipe out into the arch itself, and avoid any nasty rot issues. Chris.

Don't forget that they're describing something within 30cm or thereabouts of what's actually mentioned in the advisory. I had a vehicle fail with "suspension point excessively corroded". When I shat myself and got them to show me it was actually a hole in the outer sill, but it was so close...

So, the car that originally caught my attention was the Minty Fresh pickup; that guy (sorry don't know his name) fitted a Silvia Turbo lump in there. There's a K11 on YouTube with a Sr20DE (I think), the engine from a Primera. It looks pretty tasty. But I'm wondering what else fits; what...

Are there any other adjustments to make or do people generally just fit shorter springs? And by that I guess I mean is the geometry affected (like the panhard rod). I was planning on chopping the springs because I'm cheap as fook, but I would probably slice a bit out of the panhard rod to...

Might have to wander over and say hello to you folks. I'm in my MR2 so will be camped with TwoBrutal, but next year I'm probably going to be in either the Datsun Sunny or (drum roll) the yellow Micra pickup with the biggest engine I can find stuffed in it. :) Chris.

Is there much benefit adding the Almera air box?

Before you move the car (after it's been stood) open the bonnet and shine a torch down through the engine bay; that should give you a rough idea where the leak is. People like National Tyres or Kwik Fit will probably get it on the ramps and advise you on what is leaking, maybe even give you...

If you're near Northampton, you can use mine. :) Chris.

Oh yes. Need to spend some more time on it though, I've another MR2 coming in for a V6 Swap so in a couple of weeks so it needs to be at least complete looking so I can scoot it up the lockup for a few weeks. Paint might have to wait. :)

Also how much for the clocks? C.

Hi, how much for the driveshafts (assuming theyre sound) shipped to Northampton? One of mine is clicking. Chris.

So, I was planning on getting loads done, but went canoeing / snorkelling on the River Wye on Saturday with my dad, spent half a day in the garage Sunday, and had a really lazy Monday. Got some more templates made from cardboard. I make these by gently tapping on cardboard, then trimming it...

Exactly. :)

I've got a pair of rear windows going for free. Chris.

Hi folks, Not sure where this goes (mods please feel free to move) but I'm in need of a pair of K11 headlights. Mine seem to have big holes in them! Chris.

So, figured it was time i did a bit more tinkering. Hacked some more of the boot lid top and made a couple more plates. Plugged the holes that are not needed any more, boot lock and wiper motor. Also switch from gasless to gas mig. I had half a roll of fluxed wire when i bought the...
