  1. I'm sure the set up is 300....I got the coilovers with Spax adjustable inserts and brembo brakes as a deal
  2. It was the sidewall that was bothering me with how i want the coilovers set up in didn't want it to be to harsh a ride.....the days of me bouncing down road and putting up with it are long gone lol
  3. Thanks,I'll stick with 16s then that's the set up iv got tyre wise ..I'll have a look at the pirelli I thought there was more wide 16s out there tbh to keep demand up
  4. Haha no not a million or a trillion I'll be putting about 500+hp with a 150 shot of nos on top of that so I want to make sure I can put it to the road ..... Like I said iv already got 16x10s on back and 16x9 on front plus it's always nice to be a little different
  5. Haha noooooooooo I'm looking at having a set of black nascar style wheels made
  6. Due to me changing rear axle on my capri I need to change wheels.iv got 16's at min but looking at 17's 8.5j front 9.5j back My question is who's running 17's and what's it drive like with them on...I'll stick with 16's if need be but I can only get 245s in 16's
  7. Try summit racing that's where I'm getting my from..not to bad even with import tax
  8. They seem to be the same....I've read people running 600bhp through standard ones so when time comes to fit turbos it should be up to job with a lsd kit aswel Plus It has disc brakes so saved me abit
  9. Thanks for replys guys.....6 point cage it is then.... ones at gsm seem to have a option drop downs for things like removable door bars also found a place in Poland that dose full cage kits
  10. You make a good point aardvark lol Escort mk1v6....I've seen the one that's on safety devices website and GSM performance website both cages look the same though so unsure if they get them from same manufacturer. Has anyone had a cage from these places?? Vista.....it's a sbc 385 with ally heads.its not as heavy as a standard small block but even ally heads weigh some. So on guess my next question is...is anyone running a full cage on the street?
  11. Hi want your opinion guys on this.im looking at getting a rollcage for my v8 capri to stiffen the shell. It'll be weekend road use with occasional drag strip use.now do I go full cage or half cage.im having bucket seats too What you think?
  12. Thanks for the info guys..I've got the chance to buy a volvo 245 axle are these the same as 240 axle wise??
  13. Just sent driveline 3j a email I'll let you know what they say
  14. Looked into that too it's one certain kind that you can put the Daimler or mk2 jag internals in and again years ago pretty frequently available but these days everything's getting harder and more expensive to find..... Also looked at the volvo axle that was used in a lot of drag cars because it was strong but hens teeth these days
  15. What jag axles have the Lsd as standard I don't mind doing fab work to fit the carrier cage..where there's a will there's a way and all that
  16. Is there a jag axle that could cope with it you think?
  17. I thought about a 9" but they ain't regularly available these days
  18. Hi.what Lsd do you guys think will be best to run in a atlas axle that would be capable of running 700bhp+....running on street and strip.....I'm going to use a pair of 255 40 17s on a set of 17x10j steels on rear also
  19. I dont know why fords pic on its side
  20. My mate ford,he's always keeps me company when I'm working on capri
  21. I once had a bloke come for a Capri axle I was selling who was into bangers,he thought he was being smug telling me he just bought a 2 door yes 2 Granada off a old women even showed me pics and admitted it was in really good nick but didn't care he was going to use it in a banger event anyway,well he was acting smug untill I told him In no uncertain terms to push off without the axle.....while ever banger racing is going classic cars will always be in danger once the really really scrap cars are gone what then?? Wouldn't have thought ud get much banging out of a plastic modern car and cant see banger "boys" paying......
  22. Welcome mate
