Hi people, The standard HT leads on my car are 6mm, but the ones I'm using to replace are better spec, 8mm ones. Trouble is the cable management. The plastic HT lead carriers are not going to be big enough. Does anyone know of anywhere that makes bigger carriers, or am I going to...

Hi everyone, One or two of you may remember me, I posted the Probe project a while ago. That's been on hold for a while, but I still have the car, she's fine. How's everyone doing here, still seeing some familiar names :D Mick. EDIT: Wow just looked, it was a year ago to the day...

Hi all, Haven't been on in a while, so hope you're all ok. I've got a friend with a Renault Master 2.8 diesel van. The thing won't start. The original engine had seized up and so was changed. The moby didn't like the 'new' fuel pump and would not disengage, so the original pump was fitted...

Is there not any other Cougar owners here?

It was a little dark, but you can see ok Cougar 2.5 V6 - Drove home nice, and will replace my old 1.1 Fiesta :lol: Much more fun while I fix up my Probe :bigsmile:

The thing with owning a Probe is you can't really get any rear light clusters other than standard. Standard I do have a set of US rear spec lights, but they don't have any orange section for the indicators. Early US spec I could have used the reverse sections, but they are...

. . . Look more closely Funny looking tyres those . . . Puncture was that? . . . Nah

Went to Billing today in Northampton and got a few pics, so I thought I'd share Click on the pic for link to the slideshow Some really nice cars there, and some pretty old ones too :bigsmile:

Next to be done is I need my CAI piping either powder coating, or even ceramic coating. May go with the ceramic as it would help with the intake air temperature perhaps. Also need some new slam panels, a rad shroud, and battery cover, so looking for those too. I can either go for stainless, or...

What's the funniest registration you've ever seen? This was a good one and got a pic too

Who likes spoilers, and what type of spoiler do you prefer. This was my last one Sprayed up myself from this Originally fitted to my first Probe a few years back It's in the garage somewhere now though and that's probably where it'll stay too. What's your favourite type?

Here's some pics of the setup I've got for my Probe. I don't have the turbo unit fitted here as I bought the setup minus the turbo unit - I want to fit a new unit just for my own piece of mind. I do, however, have the front exit Powerflow exhaust. The turbo unit in the pic is a T70...

Does anyone else have special lighting on their cars? Neon, LED?

What is the best way of dealing with a sheared bolt? The bolt in question is one of the top radiator mounting bolts. :confused: Cheers. :D

What is the best way to blend body panels together, for example a bumper to a wing? I'd like to do this but it worries me that it may crack and ruin the job. Any thoughts on the best way to do this properly?

Thought this would be the best place for this, so here goes. This was my car when I first bought her a few years ago and this was after her first 'facelift' She now, however, looks like this Interior is stripped out apart from the dash She's having some body mods done, including de...

The factory brakes are ok on the Probe and I know I can do a direct swap for the bigger front Mazda 6 discs and calipers as they'll bolt straight on, but I was thinking more along the lines of more pots. Not really interested in drilled/grooved discs, or better pads as they don't seem to make...

I know that TVR have no door handles on some of their models with a release switch under the wing mirror, which would indicate to me that they would have to be legal to be sold in the UK likle that. However I keep hearing from some, that shaved door handles are illegal. :confused: What do...

Just like to say hi to everyone, and what a great looking site you have here :cool: Still got lots of looking round to do, and looking forward to it. My name is Mick, and I'm in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. I'm currently running around in an old 1.1 Fiesta (costs nothing in petrol to run :lol:)...
