Great news for me i have just sold my beloved Volvo 850 T5-R. One of them awesome yellow ones. Went like the preverbiale off a stick. I'll miss her.

This doesn now mean i'll be spending loads on my sammy. I'll try n update it in the builds section and also on my website.

Whoo hoo!

These can be applied for from DVLA but i would possibly do one of those mobile phone reg check things (bout £5) just to ...

I was reading on http://www.rollcentre.co.uk and FIA spec cages are 45mm x 2.5mm. I've been quoted £18+VAT for 44mm x 3mm x 7.5m. I also reckon on two lengths so be about £50. Bargain. Just gotta get home and measure up.

Your thoughts please.

Thanks

Yup, read that one, read the DIY page on Suzuki Club, and i've been thru the shropshire forum too. Mine pretty much is identical to all of them minus the water jacket. Pipes to the same places, same bits blocked off. I havn't ran this SJ for years and bolted the SU on today - nothing. Swapped back t...

Ok, so I haven't rebuilt the carb (but the car it came off was running when I removed it) Before doing anything with the carb I just want to get it running. The carb is off a maestro and i just want to see if it runs. I know most posts mention changing needles etc... giving it a good service gaskets...
