Alan!

I,m not doing this so as to go fast on our normal roads, but do and would like to take it on track and sprint events.

Friends have some faster cars and just wish to even the odds slightly.

Re: KC3 Project Silver

Looking forward to the 11th!! Rogue, you manning the BBQ??

And the rest of you, if you are just thinking about coming along there will be no pressure to spend money on mods - it would be great to see if we could top to 10 cars we managed to get at Nottingham!

Re: KC3 Project Silver

Been a busy B today.

Got her down to my mates garage and fitted the new goodridge stainless steel brake hoses.
We removed the old rubber hoses which just screw off with the correct spanner.

Replaced with new hoses and a good bleed and refit with new DOT 5.1 high performance brake fluid.

An easy enough mod to do, once up on a ramp.

A little messy but a good jet wash afterwards sorts that out.



A few pics before and afterwards.

Re: KC3 Project Silver

Some more pics of the new lines, and i also changed all the rear suspension rubber mounts and bump stops.

These i purchased a long time ago, just never got round to fitting them when i first fitted the suspension springs as i was waiting for additional rubbers to come.
