Mark, Everyone's very quiet at the moment! Is there any chance of you telling us if the modification to your suspension roll centres had any noticeable effect?...
Its diificult to say. The modifications are to reduce the snap oversteer once the rear end has started to slide, and I cant say Ive had it sideways recently....
Glenn Not sure if Mark's mods are the same, but I altered the roll centres on my Cosworth G33 five years ago. My first hillclimb in the car was at Finlake (a...
I got the Mods from Duncan also, but they are a bit more extreem to drop the top wishbone 6mm at the rear and raise the front one by 6mm with washers. He said...
Graham, Thanks for that. I have the shorter wishbone type (chassis 016) and, in due course, will probably go for the mod you specify but Mark T's version of...
How do I tell if mine is the long or short wishbone version? This sounds like a good mod, and i do tend to push my car quite hard! Don't want to end up in a...
Glenn What ET are your wheels? If they are about ET11 then you probably have the short wishbones. If they are in the region of ET 35, then I would think you...
Nick Sorry - just realised I should addressed my last e-mail to you. Confused you with Glenn. Graham ... From: Nick Towe To: GinettaG33@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
Nick, I have six Fondmetal wheels and the ET is cast near the outside centre on five of them so you should be able to tell. It's all to do with the offset of...
Nick It is usually cast into the wheel. Graham ... From: Nick Towe To: GinettaG33@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, November 22, 2007 9:12 AM Subject: Re:...
Nick Glenn is right. The ideal is high ET on the front wheels to reduce kick back and to improve the front suspension geometry and low or even negative ET on...
Hi guys, Since changing jobs recently i have had to get a sensible daily driver (a 330d touring) so the 911 has been relegated to weekend toy status. This...
Being realistic, its a really bad time of year to try and sell the car, so why not wait 'till the spring and see if you feel the same ? Also it looks like the...
Pretty much what I was going to say. Nick blitzracing@... wrote: Being realistic, its a really bad time of year to try and sell the car, so why not wait...
Hi Pete, I`ve probably got more toys than you at the last count, three TVRs (various), an Autotune Gemini (kit car), a Vauxhall Astra (daily driver), and of...

I've stripped my hydraulics, and the master cylinders are not internally corroded, so just a new seal set will do. One of the Ebay shops does the set for...
Mark, The balance bar setup is adjustable, but is very basic as you say being done with washers and hence not very practical if you want to adjust at an event...
How much is the kit, and how do you set it up ? On the off road stuff I used to set brake bias so it just locked up the rear before the front on wet grass or...
About £20 for the balance bar assembly and another £20 for the remote adjuster. You usually want the fronts to lock just before the rears in both wet and dry...
Mark Did you get my response on the balance bar question? I sent it Saturday with a photograph. Graham ... From: Mark Thompson To: Ginetta Sent: Saturday,...
Having entered my interest at showing my car at the Pistonheads show in January (runs alongside the Autosport International show) I have been accepted and they...
Hey pete, theres an advert on Pistonheads for somebody wanting a G33. Says it must be a 91 car so yours might fit the bill !! Thought I'd give you the heads up...
Thanks Simon. I was considering putting my car up for the PH show, so let me know if you decide not to... Cheers, Pete From: Simon B Sent: Wednesday, December...
