Hi Carl, did you ever weigh the 7 ?
need a new trailer...my new towcar is close to max towing weight of new tow car...not a prob for the westy...but might be over on an fd!

Well it seems Father Christmas had a look in my ebay watching and got me a few things rotary related.
Bonnet dampners for the fd
Rear ebc pads for the fd and rotary emblemed T shirt!.
No spoiler but a towbar for the towcar.

I couldnt agree more!

Grant Monkhouse · December 28, 2015, 03:26:48 PM

Extra added lightness

Bobfish · December 28, 2015, 09:41:32 PM

well how much is your trailer? you should have 300kg+ to play with

boosted · December 29, 2015, 05:21:32 AM

Well trailer is yet to be purchased...thinking car is 1200kg? So trailer weight 400kg..close to 1600 kg.
I sold my other trailer this year...fd would not have fitted inside. It had seen better days.

re japi · December 29, 2015, 03:48:50 PM

I think FD weights 1260kg. Dunno if extra options will raise that weight much...

Got my OBDII mini scanner today! That thing is brilliant!

Cool bargain aint they...dont leave plugged in though...may flatten battery!.

re japi · December 29, 2015, 05:25:09 PM

Yes they are. Thanks for that tip

How it may flatten battery? I would imagine that it wouldnt...? But thanks for advice...

Yes, we have nice day to "test" here. Very slippery roads, about -5 Celsius. I did put it my soccermom car and give it some beans

went sideways around my village. Had good fun about 30mins. Oh, and checked cars "parameters" via my new toy...

Just airing on side of caution. If it has a light or led on and follow comms instructions for connecting and dis connection with ecu....dont wanna spike ecu by pulling out etc whilst driving along lol....."boosted told me to buy it and now my ecu is fried " lol
! Jokin aside plug in ign off follow instructions etc.
