Forum parts buisness
« on: November 09, 2013, 09:48:15 am »
Hiya, just floating this idea but dont want it to have any impact on Jasons growing buisness at all, idea is to enhance.....but if its stupid, please delete.

Tom has just made those lovely steering rack brackets. I have loads of bits i have had made, eg adjustible arbs. There us a massive shortage of pukka race bits for our cars. How about we make them available here? Also, with the engineering excellence presence, we should fill the gaps for the bits not available today.

I could start a list....but lets see what Jason thinks first.

How is your anti role bar performing? Would love to see pics and read your thoughts on it.

I look forward to seeing what Jason says in responce, it could really help this forum develop.

See my MK2 Golf 16v in the members section.

Arb is ace. Nicely adjustible and great when it rains. Fits std mk2/3 mounts but needs tabs welding or bolting on strut bodies to attach. Could be made available.

Excellent Idea - and something I was going to ask Jason about, either to go in tango with him, or do stuff that he doesnt/wont/has no interest in.

My area would be small numbers of cast parts, or cnc'd items.

Not intending to get rich, just would love to see some problems solved or holes filled with new creations.

Curved throttle body spacers seem to be a big issue for some?

Jason, over to you boss.

Brian,

Afternoon chaps!

Finally got broadband working!....just moved house...been like watching paint dry waiting for the sky switch on date!

I reckon we can look at something like that....I've been approached by another chap along similar lines, and as he asked first I need to sit and have a proper chat with him and see what we can rustle up to play fair....after that I should think we can fill in some gaps.

I've got some curved spacers here Brian...came on an engine...I figured they where Jenvey but not got around to looking at it yet...they've been used to straighten up the inlet of a DTH set up on a KR 16v.

I prefer to use a manifold with less upright than the DTH set up but yr right there are a lot of them out there with air filter clearance issues where curved spacers could help.

Can you cast sensible price throttle bodies Brian!!...

Im sure I could, more numbers equate to lesser prices - as always!
