    What did you do with your early bay today

    What did you do with your early bay today

    T-Cut and polish went well - never looked so good. All the different bits of paint are shiny now... Replaced HT leads and plugs and had a go at balancing the carbs - almost idles now...

    Warm gear selection

    I had something similar when I was running a modded engine with a stock SP cooler. I assumed that heat-soak was causing the problem - either possibly in the clutch, causing drag or even in the gearbox itself. I switched to a TP cooler and it has been fine ever since. J

    What did you do with your early bay today

    Painted over the primer from Classic Car Revivals repair. Reasonably happy with the quality of my spraying but not the colour match. Not their fault - think it matched the original colour but not the cak the PO had put on. So fired up the electric polisher and T-Cut. Getting there...

    What did you do with your early bay today

    Dragged it out of the workshop, fired it up, ran like a bag of ***** but took the kids out anyway. Full throttle is fine, so briefed the missus to keep it lit as she takes the kids to Big Bang while I'm working.

    Engine Oil

    I started with SAE30 but the pressure dropped too much when it got hot so I switched to Halfords Classic 20W50 on a mate's recommendation and it's been spot on.

    Anyone got a Gopro Hero 3

    I haven't got one but have used a Hero3 Black and it's awesome. Wi-Fi link to iPhone is brilliant but destroys battery. Best to frame on phone or iPad then turn off Wi-Fi. Editing is a doddle with iMovie too. J

    speakers - recommendations please - 'new soundsystem'

    Another for Infinity. I've got 6.5in components in the front doors running off a Pioneer head and they sound lovely - punchy and accurate. The only issue I could see with mounting in kick panels could be potential sealing problems and hence, a lack of bottom-end punch but I've never tried it...

    New or recon engine

    If it's any help, I had a recon from these guys a few years ago and it's been bang-on - I've tweaked it, had it in and out loads of times to play with it and it hasn't missed a beat. Cheap, will fit and even collected my van. I'm well happy... http://www.elitevw.com/"...
