Re: CV Boot - totally ripped :(

I just did a quick search on YouTube for Vitara CV boot and a few vids popped up.

I don't know if they are any good as I'm on PP wifi at the min.

Re: Front N/S brake grinding

I'd go to a local bolt stockist with a sample, and get a grade 8.8 minimum bolt from them.

Six years and not road worth! Are you going for a little known record? ;)

I keep meaning to come over to N Wales for some laning, but yet to get there. I've seen some nice videos on Youtube, and fancy trying them out.

Re: Kawazonkey

And I found this article in the Aircooled club magazine. TZ wheels are a fraction lighter than the alloy RD ones...not really worth the bother...
