Re: New club mag is out

I can't remember when I renewed my sub but must be about two years ago now..maybe even three! It was in December but can't remember what year. I have mentioned this before as I'm as confused as I'm sure the person who deals with the subs is! At the time I got conformation and a new member card in th...

Re: New club mag is out

Been trying to renew a few times now but nothing is working. The online application renewal doesn't work and I've e-mailed but no reply.

Re: Too Many Spares!

I know the spigot bush can cause judder if worn allowing the shaft to bounce around. I think they can be replaced with bearings but I've heard mixed reviews about them.

Re: Too Many Spares!

I'm glad someone brought that up. I remember when I owned VBX (a deluxe coupe) and reading about why the clutch was changed to an 8". Knowing VBX had an 8" clutch I remember thinking "well, it did f**k all to stop judder but at least they tried!" REP was the same and it wasn't un...

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

I thought that too but there is actually a difference with the TC wheel. When I stripped the old cover off I was just going to use it as a standard Marina wheel but the cross bar has recessed steps molded into it so that the cover fits flush! If you zoom in on the second pic you can just see the ste...

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

Fitted a TC steering wheel to TDT today. I had to buy a new cover and spent most of last night trying to sew it! Took a few attempts but looks good.

Re: Marina / Ital Census

Any good to you Josh? The car was scrapped in the mid 80's. Some of the parts I picked up from Newport were from this.
I don't have any other details about it except it was a teal blue coupe with a yellow interior, I think it's called Ochre.
