Re: Sparks out of engine bay
That is scary! Doesn't someone do repro clips? Think I've seen some.

Re: Advice on selling my Laser
2 1/4 spring actually is rusty.... but they are not madly expensive, I was going to replace with lower poundage slightly longer springs anyway. Random pic of brake master shows the brake bias adjuster (off a Sierra) which lets you adjust back/front brake balance.

Re: Advice on selling my Laser
So frustrating, I'm obviously not computer literate so all the pics I uploaded to drop box didn't work... looks like the beer, scampi offer is currently leading..... Auction closes in 2026.

Re: Advice on selling my Laser
OK, so nothing much has changed, have used the Capri a bit this summer but still not going to have time to do track days..... so it has to go, I have been around the Ebay merry-go-round a few times and that is just so frustrating in terms of time wasted.... Here are a couple of pics: https://www.dro...

Re: Refurbished DashBoards
Has anyone seen the fibreglass dash that Capri club do? I understand you need to strip out the steel "chassis" of your original dash?

Re: Advice on selling my Laser
Brilliant advice so far... thanks and yes it is MOT'd at the moment, been SORNed a bit when I haven't had time to sort it and it lived in a garage mostly so no stress about SORN in the past.
Cheers,

I am lookin...

Re: Any experience of this company for parts?
yup I have ordered bits and bobs over the years, seemed good to me, they have an older car part ordering line, or used to anyway, with a helpful bloke (Martin??) on the other end. I kept an ancient Fiat Tempura (sp???) and a Nissan Sunny on the road for years beyond their recommended retirement ages...

I like Rustoleum combicolour. Seems better than the Hammerite.

Re: 2.0 laser street sleeper.
Thx, I am trying Rustoleum combicolour on the brembos, having been advised that it's a bit better than Hammerite which is what I use under the car mostly, or caliper paint from Halfrauds.
Seems pretty good so far.

Re: List of parts not in reproduction.
jokes aside, ,I have some that are a truly crappy copy on my Laser. Very disappointing fit- I am going to try warming them up and closing down the profile a bit so they grip better.rich_jc wrote:Shaped gutter trims, please, shaped gutter trims.
