Just got a picture on my profile.

[Gavinr]

Title says it all really. Pic was taken at Pie On The Beach last year. Sat next to it is Nacnud's 450SEAC .

It's a bit small Gav! Looks like a matchbox....

[Gavinr]

It's a start! Do you know how to make it bigger? It took me long enough to get that on there.

How many MB was the camera which took the photo? as this affects size

[Gavinr]

I don't know, I got a link from another site. They take quite a long time to come up, I'm assumming they're quite big files.

Gavin

Edited to say: just tried another picture, came up small again.

You've linked to the thumbnail pic, you need to re-edit your picture profile to www.verysideways.com/live/images/pistonheads/potb_8.9.2002/107-0749_IMG.JPG

That will give you the big piccy

Ok, tried this and all I get is a box with a little red cross in it. Any ideas?

You've probably not got http:// in front of the www.
Unfortunately when you type that into here it doesn't display the HTTP bit because it recognises it as an active link.

You can also click on the link above and copy the link from the address line of the new windows that opens.

The cars looking good mate, how’s it going?

My Griff’s just gone into David Batty’s for a bit of work, fingers crossed I’ll get it back soon!

Car's going well thanks. In the process of sorting new brakes. Should be getting 4 pot calipers and 295mm grooved and vented discs. Hopefully in time for Folembray.
What are they doing to your's? Nothing too serious I hope. Jane still enjoying the Mini?

Thanks for all the help. I've got it sorted and also have pictures of the CBR and TVR in my profile.
Cheers

Pleasure to help

[paul v]

Just a bit of work for the MOT, need it back for snetterton on the 21st. Jane’s still loving the Mini, it’s going very well.

Who’s doing your brake upgrade?

[Gavinr]

Paul

Me and Dad. The upgrade is coming from Hi-Spec motorsports. Should work really well. Look good to!

[Paul V]

Sorry for the late reply, Hi spec is just up the road from Jane, would be good to hear how you get on with the upgrade.

[Gavinr]

Paul

Spoke to them today, hopefully arriving thursday or friday. I'll let you know how I get on.

I got a HiSpec upgrade for my car, the Billet 4 pots and 285mm vented discs.
Just don't expect them any time soon.
Despite being quoted a 3-4 week lead time, it actually took 17 weeks.
That was about 9 weeks to deliver (after a threat of cancelling the order), and a further 8 weeks for them to supply the correct parts.
Guess who I won't be using anymore!

The product looks very good and I've been told that they are extremely effective, but the service, in my opinion and experience, is diabolical.

Assuming you've gone for the Billet 4 calipers, the pads are a Volvo 240 design btw (mmm, glamourous!), so you know what to ask for when getting pads.
