Looks like there is a possibility I'll be selling the Micra to fund a BMW 325 rally car to get back to rwd. A few people said they want it but have to get the money together etc. I want £4000 for the car as recently bought new stainless exhaust, steel flywheel dyno session etc. Don't really want...

Not really what your supposed to do but cars were sliding off everywhere as really slippery so a little cut won't hurt ;)

Yeh I cut the corner. He wouldnt move and was costing me loads of time. Had enough time to move so only way I could get around him. Wasn't behind for long.

Yeh was really slippery. Good fun

Couple of pictures from Pembrey. Caught this escort mid stage. He wouldn't get out of the way. I even give him a nudge up the arse to move. So I cut in front of him on this corner in front of a large crowd of people one of which had a camera

Doing Pembrey Xmas stages on the 28th of this month. Should be fun but car is going to struggle against the fast cars as quite a few straights etc. Hoping it wet n slippery! Will put a picture up.

I'm after a set of front brake calipers from a k11 Micra that doesn't have vented front discs for a hydraulic handbrake conversion. Pref in south Wales unless you can post. Kipsy 07973637894 cheers

Cheers to Jon Suter for the pic!;)

Picture of the rally as promised. On a hairpin right!

Yeh that's quite a low grip budget tyre. Used to use them whilst practicing with my old corolla and escort. Brilliant fun and better than nankangs etc

Hello, did you ever get the system up and working? I'm considering fitting both standard rear caliper and a front caliper for hydraulic handbrake etc for rally use

What Tyres do you use though? I run soft Tarmac Tyres and occasionally slicks which grip really well. I'm not saying you run crap tyres but does it work on good quality rubber? Thanks for all your responses guys!

Just using standard pads, won't lock hot or cold. Needs pressure I think. It's got Aeroquip through out and a bias valve

I have one of those bias valves and it still won't lock. I've tried playing with it but maybe a bit more playing. Bloody road rally rules changing again so no separate or vertical handbrakes next year. Boo

Hola, I've got a Micra with a rear disc conversion and the handbrake is crap. I've got good discs and pads and the calipers are not seized. I have both cable handbrake lever and a large lever which is hydraulically operated. I've bled the system and had a new hydraulic handbrake lever made up...

Their only about £30 each new so I know the bushes are good etc. I used up all of my stock of 2nd hand ones. I was a bit over the top down the White to be fair to the car. It's strong as hell though. Fully seam welded, strut brace and full multipoint cage.

Quick update, did the mel harries memorial rally on sat night with a mate on the maps. Car was superb as the tight and twisty lanes were really slippery and muddy. The conditions really suited the car which enabled us to catch a few cars as bigger engined cars struggled for grip etc. We were...

Mine runs the full matt Humpris 2" system with janspeed decat silencer with the janspeed 4 branch and is unbelievably fast (not quite but makes 118 bhp)doesn't seem to give any resistance as max power is at max rpm

Yes I did caerwent. Was you in the other micra that matt was running?

My brother breaks e30s so easy to get. Got 8 of them now, 4 compomotives, 8 speedlines tyre rack over ful now haha!
