Water leaking into the fuse box
I had this problem on the passenger side. A once upon a time trader here re routed my boost controler through the whole were the drain cock for the targas come out of the wing (about 4" infront of and 4" lower than the top door hindge). Problem is that drain cock is a rubber tube with a 90 degree L bow on the other end which the drain pipe from the targa fits into. Buy pushing and pulling at the rubber drain cock the pipe from targa will come out and drip drip drip onto you electrics. Its a B to get to but needs pushing back in. You'll have to remove the kick pannel the pannel under the steering wheel and a load of block conectors that fasten to the inner wing buy the bulkhead. I find reclining the drivers seat then sitting in it upside down the most comfortable way to prob around up there.

Best Pads????
Yep agree and Porterfields just as bad IMO. So too are the srandard Brembo pads for the R33's.

Best Pads????
Red stuff and Portefield are pants. Ferodo DS 2500 or Mintex 1155 are best for every day fast road use and DS 3000 for track days. I've just bought a set of 2500's and they ordered the 3000's because I had them last time. They are a brilliant pad, but need a bit of heating up. However because they have them in I'll see if you could have em cheep.

racelogic traction control
I'm after the little interface gizzmo that piggy backs the standard Racelogic and gives you more options and control.

What do you think about this price?
I think if you check out some of the classic rally car sites you'll find the same thing much cheeper and closer to home. Not the kind of thing I'd go for, but each to there own.

Wheel re-furb... how much damage can be fixed?
One thing Pristine have in there favour is they have a collection and return service through Dealer networks. ie They may havbe someone up your neck of the woods. If you do use Pristine then hears a bit of Advice. Speak to Pristine first and tell them exactly what you want and what damage needs reparing and get a price from them. Then go to the dealer and when they quote you the price +there large cur you can say sorry I spoke to Pristine and they Quoted me the figure they did. That would have been without ship and return, but keep haggling and you'll get loads knocked off. Good luck

Wheel re-furb... how much damage can be fixed?
Had those done at Pristine and they charged £320 for all 4 including repairs to 3 wheels, but these are just 2 piece. However I think the guy that did Funki Si's wheels did a better job than Pristine.

John Dixon has a Quaife diff I think. It click clacks for Britain., but he may have some good feed back for you. I've been looking at the OS Giken set ups.

Rear Tailgate Skin - Have you got one?
They hold water and can leak where the glass meets the new lake. unless you have a genuine Strosek as they use the top of the boot as a spoiler and the new boot lid goes right inderneath.

A good wheel refurber will be able to fix anything so long as it isn't structurely dangerous. Pristine repared this one and it had a big chunk missing

Heater fan Replacement??
Hi is there an easy way of changing the heater fan without pulling the dash out? Had her off the road for winter and low and behold I fire her up and the heater fan is making a right din. sounds like a dry bearing.
