    The advice from the members has been so helpful in the building of this wonderful car, which we have nicknamed the "Tank" since it has put up with everything we have thrown at it. Before I first bought the car I would not have given a "Micra" a second look, but now I have a great fondness for...

    Last rally Glyn Memorial Stages - Anglesey. Great first day but being on a tight budget and last rally didn't invest in spotlights for last two stages of first day. Big mistake as all the ground I gained I lost. I used 100w Ring H4 lamps but useless, lights seemed worse than before so...

    Thanks for this information. I already have the standard valve so with this new info it looks like I might have to leave it unless there is a quick fix. I was hoping to do it this weekend before rally next week.

    Fitting bias valve

    Hi I know it has been a while since I first asked about the subject of Bias/Proportioning valves but moved onto other projects.
