Re: Hermes parcel delivery

I’ll only use UPS now - I’m sure there’s bad and good with all of these companies but I’ve found UPS to be nearly as cheap as anyone else (through third party booking companies like inter parcel) and a different level in terms of handling your packages, actually delivering things and also dealing wi...

Re: Harnesses suitable for 997 GT3

Graham do you have any detail on what’s different with the Porsche ones? I have a couple of pairs of “non Porsche” schroth harnesses (in use, so not available unfortunately) so happy to take a look or send you some pics if they would be of use When I saw your post my gut reaction was schroth - super...

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day

The number of band clamps you can see underneath for the cooling system etc gives me a twitch! You need to get rid of those for reliability Also I can’t believe it has AC and sat nav but not ABS? Good spot! You have to remember this is a prototype, the first of it's kind, the engineering is evolvin...

Re: A 3.2 which will run 8,000 rpm?

I do think if you rebuild then go efi - fuel and spark, with a camsync so you can ditch the dizzy
It needn’t be mega costly and I think the driveabdrivability gain you’ll get will be very noticeable, potentially enough to avoid the odd gearshift depending on the track..

Re: A 3.2 which will run 8,000 rpm?

Have you looked at some of the new players, like samsonas transmissions? https://www.samsonas.com/products/2/ Or some of the alternative but proven ones like drenth? Samsonas seem popular with the drift contingent so are pretty bomb proof, drenth have porsche solutions but i think they're pretty spe...

Re: A 3.2 which will run 8,000 rpm?

I think if you’re stretching rpm considerably and wanting driveability across the existing and new increased range then EFI (fuel and spark) is going to bag you the gains (if you can use it within your regs). Without this you’re going to move the powerband you already have.. Another option - have yo...

2001 Audi A6 Quattro Avant 2.7TT for quick sale

Unfortunately a very close friend of mine was killed earlier in the year in a motorcycle accident - we’re just starting to sort things out on behalf of his family, which includes selling his car. Please note - the family are not desperate for the money, but his wife is understandably fed up with see...
