Re: Wanted RPM Transducer 0227 990 001

That isn’t an RPM transducer. That’s the choke for the CDI unit.

Re: Black center speedometer

^ If you run one of our CDI+ ignition boxes, you can use the tacho calibration feature to operate a 6 cylinder tacho on 4 cylinder or vice-versa.

Re: 964 Door Pocket Lid

They are the same for the SC, 3.2, 964 and 993. You can broaden your search.

Re: '73 T wiper function questions

Pretty sure you keep speeds 1 and 2. An additional toggle switch would be added to provide the intermittent wipe when the main wiper stalk is 'OFF'.

This is basically the same as how the later 911s delay wipe works - e.g. when in the 'OFF' position.

Re: 912c

Neil Have you read up about John Willhoits development of his engine conversions? It’s an interesting read of all the avenues he went down, twin plugs, CDI, fuel injection. It answers a lot of questions. What JPS have done is developed an engine package and backed up their designs and products with...

Re: 912c

I've driven it! Lots of fun although it was very twitchy as it had been setup for track when I had a steer on bumpy local lanes.

Re: More scary cr@p from DVLA

^ You've just proved my point. It is impossible to make head nor tail of the rules when they are scattered about a website ( which can also be changed at a moment's notice ). Somewhere behind all this is a policy document yet nobody is allowed to see it!

Re: More scary cr@p from DVLA

^ You would think so but it’s just words on a government website. A case in point is this page where it states that cars and minibuses over 10 years old (with 8 seats or less) are exempt from vehicle approval. That would seem pretty clear cut wouldn’t it? https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-approval/exemptio...

Re: More scary cr@p from DVLA

^Trying to assess what is right or wrong is fruitless. The point is the 'rules' are not clearly defined and the 'fun police' are enforcing them how they see fit. Essentially the DVLA refer to a 'policy' that has not been published so everyone is in the dark about what can and cannot be done. What ha...

Re: More scary cr@p from DVLA

^ Well that is an interesting point. if you take any car with a separate chassis then drilling holes in the upper body is ok. Yet put a hole in a monocoque for, say, fitting seatbelts and you're in the Q club.

Re: More scary cr@p from DVLA

How would you get a quality repair done? By a workshop that keeps their work 'under the radar'? They would be legally obliged to put every restored car on a Q. Edit: "Dear sir, Please find the attached works and invoice for repair work on your Aston Martin DB4. This includes additional works re...
