    Silverstone Edition 200 - AST 5100

    Sorry for another post. Thought I'd just share these. Picked up a set of second hand hubs a while back that were looking crusty af. Stripped them apart and gave them to a mate who has a vapour blaster at work, clean up pretty good don't you think. Was wanting to rebuild them prior to...

    Hopefully so. Was too knackered after working on it all day to take it out haha Nurburgring end of next month though so need to have a wee shake down before hand. What spring rates do you run out of curiosity?

    Silverstone Edition 200 - AST 5100

    Front end aligned today. Camber maxed out on the top mounts and getting 2.3deg, would like a bit more but thats all I'm getting for now. Running 10 minutes toe out on the front Some access holes cut Wishbones with the uni balls fitted too. Some ball joint boots used to prevent crap...

    Silverstone Edition 200 - AST 5100

    Got the strings out tonight. Beam looks like right side is a bit out. Got 3mins toe out on the left and 29mins toe out on the right. Camber is at 1.9deg left and 2.0 deg right. Will need to get some shims ordered to sort out the toe and maybe a bit more camber. Aiming for 10 mins toe...

    Yeah, was either that or tie wraps. Rivnut then bolt on the clips Prefer the P clips, better looking finish.

    Silverstone Edition 200 - AST 5100

    PMS strengthened and powder coated rear beam fitted yesterday. Used P clips to hold brake lines and ABS sensor cable. Handbrake cables seem happy where they are. New rear callipers, disks and DS2500 pads fitted as well as a full brake fluid flush through also. Will need to get a base geo and...

    CNC parts ideas

    Tools for removing the ball joints from the hubs. The upper ball joint is a pain due to the lack of flat areas for pressing. A tool for removing the wishbone ball joint too. AP motorsport make some but I think they are overpriced...

    Cup Racer EE Brackets & Roll Centre Correction - The Numbers...

    Nice write up. Be good if PMS could make an EE bracket that doesn't add so much castor and cause the bumper to rub and need trimmed. That's the main thing that is holding me back getting the kit. I did see you can pull some caster back with the adjustable anti rotation link. Is there enough...

    Silverstone Edition 200 - AST 5100

    The ASTs are great. Depending on how you want the car to handle you could get a stiffer rear end. The guys at AST will be happy to advise. Road wise if the road isn't to bumpy then again they are great in my opinion. Yeah PMS top mounts do look like a nice bit of kit. Would recommend some...

    Silverstone Edition 200 - AST 5100

    More lovely parts Rear beam has been welded up and powder coated. New brake lines mounted, just trying to figure out the best way to secure the handbrake cable and ABS cable. Probably put a rivnut in and use a large P clip PMS wishbone bearing installed into some brand new Renault arms...

    Buckets with seatbelts

    Did you some from standard seats? Think the recaro ones are different from standard buckles? The R26 does look like a neat set up

    Buckets with seatbelts

    Don't know anyone local with clip unfortunately and reckon the dealer will just be a pain to deal with.

    Buckets with seatbelts

    I was thinking of doing the same as this for the buckle. What length is the seat belt buckle you got? Going to mount the harness eye bolt on the chassis further back to get the proper length/angles I think.

    Buckets with seatbelts

    Got a sparco EVO QRT on order. Have some pure motorsport side mounts already. What have people used for buckles to use standard seat belts? Also got 3.3ohm resistors for the airbags. Anyone clarify where I need to pin them (coming from recaro CS)
