She looks an absolute treat Kev you should be well proud.
:)

vid vid vid!!! :D

The bogs dollocks mate well done :cool:

Don't let them log it on as test,but you probably already know that.

Get the brake force readings from them,it will give you an idea front to rear balance,if it's atl you should get a weight reading too.

Well done kev, looking great

Well done kev. Have fun testing it out!

Hi guys and thanks.....may have an issue to solve, my local garage checked the car over and the only 2 things they could see that might be a problem was tracking and emissions .....now the tracking I am going to sort out tomorrow, but does anyone know how to get the emissions down ....my CO is around 4.5 and needs to be under 3.5 ....I have heard retarding the timing a little helps.
no cat or lambda, never was any.
Trailer works brilliant by the way

One nice car you got there Kev:cool: :cool:

Well guys, had my Iva today and failed on a few things:(
1. Speedo was under-reading 7% at worst 3% at best..... I believe on my dash it is a potentiometer to twiddle so relatively easy fix there.

2.headlamps are "kicking up" the wrong way ie lhd.......might just be a turn of the bulb to rectify or new headlamps.

3.rear fog was operating with sidelights........re-wire

4.Axle weight at rear was over stated axle weight .......As manufacturer I can write a letter to the examiner and advise him of a re-distribution of axle weights

5.Parking brake cable had wire joiner which is not allowed.........new correct length handbrake cable.

6.Locking device required on screw seats of shock absorbers.........simple drill,tap and fit grub screw

I have no complaints what soever with the examiner, he was a nice guy who chatted throughout the test and described everything that he was doing and offered advice regarding possible solutions/fixes, so I am hoping to get sorted within a few weeks and get back over there to pass.
Ironically the one thing I was worried about was the emissions were fine at 1.7% CO (limit 3.5) HC was 260 ( limit 1200).
So all in all I would say it was not a bad fail as all of the fault are easily rectified.

Not too bad Kev. Interesting about the handbrake, I thought most people used cable clamps here? These are the type I used.



I have 3 or 4 of them on there.
