dave if it's of any interest (given your question)my slr flywheel is loitering in the garage and amenable to offers jerry
-
jimmy i have one and am in frimley, come through farnham at least once a week let me know if you want to borrow it jerry
-
would suggest the 32r's: reason 2 slr's on new 32r's @mallory i'm a second a lap quicker: onto spa i've changed to acb10's (well worn) and now it's equal- drivers and cars otherwise unchanged plus, if it's damp/wet the 32r's will be more friendly hope that's helpful, enjoy your day out jerry

brian, best excuse to upgrade to carbon nose cone as it doesn't have these 😬 jerry
-
my slr with standard exhaust has been measured between 99-104dB @ 5,500rpm at a selection of venues needless to say the 104 was at goodwood with their "sensitive" meter haven't bothered trying at bedford or coombe jerry
-
if you get it repaired get a fixed quote and make sure it won't be quicker/cheaper to buy a new one keep the fittings as the new one won't come with them hope it goes ok jerry
-
myles i had mine repaired/resprayed (original yellow) but it cost £250 *eek* haven't used it as it took so long upgraded to carbon still have it so if you're in a hurry let me know- i'm sure it's worth less than the repair 🙆🏻 jerry

set of 4 adjustable bilsteins from 2000 SLR £180 working fine but changed to more track orientated nitrons jerry
-
david have you sold either/both rads? perhaps i should advertise my bilsteins jerry
-
steve, what is mick's bleed device and from where might i get one? have done the jacking, blowing, warming, screwing routine but haven't tried to dead lift my 7, what's the recommended lift point? 😬 jerry

Oil Change - Proper procedure for K Dry Sumped
jerrypike replied to Northern Banana's topic in TechTalk
my '99 spec slr doesn't have a sump plate drain so for me it's off with the blue plate, filter off to drain (just over 4l). check the magnom magnetic filter for swarf (nil, same as back of blue plate) refit plate/magnom/filter 4l mobil 1, crank for a couple of seconds, then fire up, idle, pressure gauge straight back up to normal 4 no leaks works for me (so far) jerry -
nick is this mod applicable to those slow k-series cars too? if so any chance i could come to see it?? paul who's making the swirl pot, are they interested in making 2 if answer to above is yes? many thanks jerry
-
such a useful social skill sorry to disturb your reverie jerry
-
thank you another w/e beckons with car in the air and coolant being blown over the flowers 😬 who put them next to the drive jerry
-
paul good to see you too, long wet day would agrre with the pre head gasket checks, friendly mechanic can do these very quickly hope all sorted easily jerry
-
since changing to alloy race rad water temp has kept about 80, but yesterday despite a traffic interupted run back from goodwood didn't go over 60, yet fan was running when i got back to idle at home is the gauge going on the blink, anything else i should check? thanks jerry
-
sure demon tweks sell them, but agree with nifty that really not worth the effort/damaged rims. needs a good deal of care from a friendly and properly equipped fitter to avoid damaging the r500 split rims jerry
-
shame you can't get the mounts off, they fitted well on my radtec i've used the comma propylene coolant (see prev. threads) which goes in undiluted and is green (colour not environment: although not sure how david's plants are since i blew it all over them bleeding the system 😬) what's the red stuff, now i'm worried jerry
-
believe it's due to the unburnt hydrocarbon, but can't give a technical reference jerry
-
have used the bike repair system satisfactorily (as martin says, in xs of 50 😬) mine came with the K1 so no idea of cost, but mps or m&p (bike accessory catalogues also on-line) also do them, i have one stashed in the blackbird , probably cheaper than dt jerry
-
aves not a 999? if so the cat must be wrecked so he'll have to sub a set of termignoni's 😬 jerry
-
bananaman acb10's are quite prone to tram-lining and not that good in the wet, which is probably where you get the "demanding" tag for road use certainly keeps concentration levels up 😬 think the 032's will give plenty of grip, rims make a significant contribution to the weight jerry
-
quenton have your changed toe-in/out setting? have just had the same problem with the acb 10's on my slr 13" split rims previously fitted ok, but had camber set with r500 rims/032R's, swapped wheels (at spa 😳)just rubbing but managed ok with a little leverage jerry
-
interesting thread have just changed to nitrons on my slr reg jan 2000. these mounted through the middle mount rather than the lower for the original bilsteins. was a slight hassle as i didn't have the longer nuts and bolts, but after reading this may be worth it. will be sure to check the nuts when i swap wheels tomorrow anyone else srinting at longcross sunday? jerry
-
mr t lots of variables, probably 101-102 @ 3/4 rpm if you're thinking of goodwood98 days or castle coombe, take a good book jerry
