Re: Where can I get a pallet - Aberdeen
Thanks for the kind offers for free pallets folks, but alas the main problem is getting it to my flat, as I have not suitable transport for it (was out measuring the GF's mini yesterday - no go, just).
I'll try one of those pallet places in Aberdeen
Cheers,
Ross

Odd question I know, but my current fleet doesn't have the capabilites of pallet transport (too big), and I need to arrange to ship an engine / gearbox.. Ooorrrr, anyone want to drop...

NE Damper Inspection?
Hi, Does anyone know of a reputable garage that would be able to inspect a set of Exige S Bilstein dampers which I recently bought, in the Aberdeenshire ? NE area? I bought a set for eBay for a rediculously cheap price, but one was noted as looking slightly 'wet' and was suspected to be leaking by t...

Re: Supercharger Pulley Installation
Managed to get it on.. :D Perched the pulley over the gas hob of the cooker, and heated the rest of the pulley with a blow torch (not my most eloquent of plans, but worked :lol: ) and got alot of heat into it. Then once suitably baked, some good hard work with a big ratchet, and made it home.. Cheer...

Re: Snow on an S2 Elise soft top?
I don't have the soft top worry (have a hard top), but my main concern in with paint bubbling. There is already a few small bubbles on the rear clam (nothing major though) and I was wondering if a good coat of polish / wax will help prevent moisture ingress, which subsequently freezes causing the bu...

Supercharger Pulley Installation
Folks, I'm looking to install a pulley onto an M62 supercharger (same as Exige/Elise S?) but not sure I fancy giving it a go myself in case I mangle it... :shock: Anyone with any tips or even somewhere Aberdeenish who has done this? Options are heating the pulley with a combination of using the M8 t...

Re: Focus RS Drive
Bonkers car.. Had a shot in a 385hp version of the RS a few weeks ago through "exhilarate Scotland". Absolute giggle, but I reckon 385hp is too much through the front wheels in damp conditions. :shock: Cowan Driven the same car, and nearly implanted it into the back of the Aston Martin :oops: I was...

Re: Problem with rear discs
Check the other side of the disc for pad contact area, and if thats good, could be sticking sliders, and / or sticking piston. It would be worth taking if all apart and checking pads are properly seated too.
