Cheers boosted, I agree these things are all DIY'able, but I really don't fancy doing it on the drive and would much rather send it off to a specialist to take care of 

Hi everyone,

I'm looking at recommisioning my 1996 FD, it has been off the road and waiting for some time now. Does anyone have any recommendations for a specialist who could take this on, either in or near to Berkshire please?

It needs a new clutch slave cylinder, battery and some ancillary parts putting back on (air filters etc, all of which I have). It will also need new brake discs and pads and likely the calipers rebuilding. It has been sat for a while so the fuel tank will also need draining.

Any help or advice would be gratefully received.

Thanks!

Yep still here!

Did as advised and its working again.
 
Thanks very much for the spot on advice guys.

Absolutely, thanks for the advice gents. I\'ll give it a whirl tonight hopefully and post up the results..

Thanks Leon, that definately worth a shot. I can see any blown capacitors or the like, just some rust-type stuff across some of the pins on a few different chips..
 
Will electrical contact cleaner suffice do you think?

Just a heads-up to anyone running an Apexi Power FC:
 
The torrential rain on Monday managed to seep into the passenger footwell and pooled in the port next to the commander port, which in turn blew the board.
 
I\'d wouldn\'t like anyone else to be stranded in those conditions on the hard shoulder (especially with the 2.5 hour wait for recovery!).
 
I\'ve reverted to the OEM ECU and shes\' running again, just need to source a suitable replacement!
 
Cheers,
Dan.

Thanks for the advice guys.

Does anybody know if there are any differences between the twin turbo packs used on Left and Right hand drive FDs, please?

Clive thats excellent, thankyou very much indeed.

Thanks Clive, no worries at all. I seem to have Part Number: GSM32 B1SS3..
 
Ta for the info too Mr ReXtreme, much appreciated dude.

Thanks chaps, please excuse my ignorance  :o
 
and cheers for the advice SiH, wise words indeed, you\'re a gent.

Seems to be a prob with original pic, will retry....
 

 
 

Cheers Mr JP825 for the rapid response..
 
Anybody else concur?

This is possibly/ probably a stupid question...
 
Would somebody be able to confirm whether these Tein Super Streets I have just bought are the ones with pillow ball top mounts, or without, please? Am I missing anything? I thought the top mounts were camber adjustable?
 

 
Thanks guys,
Dan.
