    😂 😂 Yeah standard shafts, that one only went in in December! Tbf I like the look of the HD flanges! They worked well on my old 110. Often talked about is having cheap flanges or even cutting a few splines off them to make them specifically weaker but that can cause its own issues because the...

    Well this is a first, even for me 😅😅 Had a new CV & Shaft delivered to today from Empire, went about swapping it over after work today. Easy hours work or so I thought.... Found the problem, thankfully not the diff!! Forgot my 52mm socket ffs, so had to make this monstrosity Blew in...

    Went to Piccadilly Wood yesterday, was a great day with the Empire lot except may have sent it a little too hard and broken what is likely a CV/shaft on the drivers side. If not its the front diff but I would be suprised if it was given its an Xcess Ultrabuild. Got a new shaft & CV from Empire...

    Be careful when buying from SP 4x4 Panels : Very poor quality, dangerous & awful customer service

    Did you adjust the steering box with the adjustment screw?

    What Remap

    Speak to Gareth at Empire Tuning. He does the crusie control kits and can recalibrate the ECU if you have different ratios. As always a full vehicle health check would be done before mapping. Empire has done all of my Land Rovers and all of my mates too 😅 Cant go wrong with them.

    Thank you!! Long time coming! Cars absolutely lovely. Drives so well and rather comfortable! Cant say its fantastic on fuel getting maybe 200miles from £60 🙈 Wifes not keen on the white but prefers the WRX over the 86. Far more practical as well, nice having 4 proper seats and 4 doors!

    Not much to say! Been busy moving house, finally getting my own space back to work on the cars. Got a lovely car port (just over 2 cars long, 1.5 wide) and an outdoor workshop to start with. Will eventually try and turn the carport into a proper garage. Sold the GT86 and replaced it with a...

    Insurance companies scared of chassis changes

    Tend to agree with the above. Its not a modification, its repair/replacement. You wouldnt tell them about new calipers or a pas box. Why this? Just because its large change. Unless you want it listed for agreed value then id been looking at a new insurer.

    Help please problem bleeding 110 with ABS new brake master cylinder

    Are you sure the master was at fault? I had a similar issue a while back, fitted a TRW master and after bleeding the pedal was rock solid with almost zero movement and barely any braking force. Replaced it and it was fine, the unit was faulty. Ive found alot of TRW parts being faulty recently...

    I was meant to get some pics of that!! It was lovely. 110 Hicap but an auto box! Really nicely done interior super clean and tidy with a lovely CNC cut timber bed and drawer system. Very glad to be back in my 110 especially during this horrendous weather!

    Got my 110 back from Empire today! So nice to have it back! They did a brilliant job of sorting out the clutch issue along with a lot of other issues that cropped up. LOFs new updated VNT Extreme clutch is better as well, considerably lighter on the pedal compared to the older version so an...
