    Dressed up steel wheels

    I know a fella who works at a place where they chrome things properly, he's done a few little bits for a friend of mine for free so I guess that could be arranged if I wanted, not sure if I would like them chrome though, if I come across a spare one in the scrapyard I might try it. I got these...

    Dressed up steel wheels

    So I painted my steel wheels with some paint i found at the back of my garage and put some stainless steel trim rings off a dolly sprint on them. I think they look awesome, better than alloys any day of the week. Opinions?

    Jacking up the rear

    Its not just the castor angle that makes wheels self center though is it, theres also the scrub radius and king pin inclination that push them back straight and I reckon it has a fair bit more than 2 degrees of castor to begin with and thats all I'd be losing.

    Jacking up the rear

    Yeah I know thats how they did it, I was just using it as an example of the angle i want: On a short wheelbase car like a k11 it should just be a matter of a little drop and a little lift.

    Jacking up the rear

    Good Idea, didn't think of that. Are the stock fronts stiffer than the stock rears though? I'd rather not mess up the ride comfort if i can avoid it.

    Jacking up the rear

    I am thinking of lowering just the front of my car on some matiz springs to give it a Starsky and Hutch style rake but I've done some calculations and this would only be a 1.2 degree angle and I was looking for more like 2-3 so is there an easy and safe way of lifting the rear a little? I know...

    Those early K11 hub caps - Standard wheel-nuts...?

    They will fit as the stud pattern and nuts are the same on all k11 micras. They are supposed to be a tight fit, otherwise they would fall off. You have to give them a decent few whacks with the palm of your hand.

    Wiring.

    Where can I pick up a +12v live behind the dashboard that doesn't switch off while the starter motor is engaged? i.e. not the radio? Any help would be much appreciated as I don't have my haynes manual with me and won't while friday.

    Rear axle change

    My rear beam was paper thin between the spring cup and the hub, it broke mid corner when I was doing 40+mph and after spinning 270 degrees put me backwards into a ditch via a hedge. Don't think just because something is heavy it's strong.

    Port and polish

    I've heard a coupl of things about this, dunno how true they are: One is that the "polish" bit is pointless as the boundary layer of a gas is barely moving anyway and a surface would have to be really very rough to reach up through the boundary layer. Another is that enlarging the inlet...
