My mate has a bead blower thing and is a canister connected to an airline with a spout that gets very thin at the end which you insert between tyre and rim then it fills with air,you release a valve on it and POP it pops the bead on.....magic!!Can't remember its name tho? ________________________________________ cherry rallye daily (the money pit) |

naah, working, I rarely do saturdays too  french chav show never been my thing. chiefton, its called a cheetah, works a treat as long as your compressor is man enough to fill it, thankfully didn't have to use it much on the trucks, the 1/2 bore airlines seemed to flow enough, most car garages and tyre places only use 3/8 bore pipe though so quite a lot less air flow. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

First time there last year ...must admit Mei ..there was loads of fools with amazing cars & money spent for racing who have never used it for anything other than looking at ...don't get that ?? There were also some really amazing cars on the track with people in them who I believed didn't have a driving licence yet alone should be aloud on a very dangerous track  |

Got unused new bolts or Nuts what ever ? That an amazing price or £600 with brand new TIRs worth £300 which I paid = £36.50 per tyre as new Can deliver to you personally FOC |

I will let him know, the old set went for £300...C2 S1600 wheels would have been ideal, as theyre on offer now at 100 euros, but I think they're ET30  ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Ran the Dunlops and the Federals at Snetterton a few days ago. Dunlops definitely have more grip, particularly mid-corner and the exit. Due to the increased grip it was more reluctant to turn in as the rear had more grip so I stiffened the rear up to make it more unstable which seemed to help a bit.I would say that on a back to back test you're looking at about a 1 second gain by using Dunlops over Federals but I'm not 100% certain as the conditions were changing quickly. ________________________________________ Rallye Race Car |

Can't change anything on my setup ....it feels amazing on the fast road ....I just hope with the load of money I've spent it's better than last time ...which was amazing .... |

No few Years ago when I first bought my 6 ....Andy / Jord294 texted me about some wheels on EBay saying they are rare & are direct fit etc & he wanted them ...but I should buy them ??? Anyway the bloke lived in the far end of Scotland & would only do Collect only which is why no one bought them by the time time you put Fuel cost & time on they would of cost £900 !!!!....no way was I paying that ....so I asked him if I arranged for a courier would he wrap them up & I was surprised he said yes They ended up costing about £650 total with carriage in the end ...but he totally resprayed them & did a top notch job Sadly only 7 days time until Toyos out ...end of June ...next month bring on the 205/40/17 -R888Rs is there any chance of me using them on the track I'm skint at mo so they will have to wait for a few more months Only bought direct fit PRO 1.2s to fit tyres for the track |
