PRECISION DAMPING FOR MX-5-BASED KITCAR OWNERS
Dec 13th
Moss Europe has announced that it can now offer MeisterR coil-over dampers for the Mazda MX-5 (Miata).
MeisterR coilovers are one of the biggest names in aftermarket coil-overs for the MX-5. They combine build quality, good looks, and excellent performance, all at a sensible price.
There are two versions of MeisterR coil-overs: ZetaCRD and ClubRace. The former are designed for fast road use and use a softer spring and lower damping rates than the ClubRace, but perform very well on the road and are still capable of the occasional trackday.
The ClubRace, meanwhile, are designed to maximise performance with high grip trackday tyres More >
GOLD CLASS
Dec 13th
A standard Mini coil-pack can only do so much. When the compression is raised (as in most high-performance engines) or non-standard fuel mixtures are used the coil’s performance is challenged so something better is needed.
The Mini Spares Gold Performance Coil is totally different to the usual Lucas type and is generally acclaimed as being the best on the market.
It represents a massive improvement over the standard coil and yet is a direct replacement upgrade. It must be noted though that it can only be used on non-ballast type Minis manufactured up to 1982.
The internal components of this coil are completely More >

MANIFOLD REASONS WHY …
Dec 7th
Webcon has announced the introduction of a range of manifold spacer sets.
It is widely understood that increasing intake length can have a beneficial effect on performance. Up until now, the only way to achieve this has been to fit different length intake manifolds, when available. However, now the new Webcon spacers allow the existing intake manifold to quickly and easily be extended with the minimum of disruption to the tuning process.
Superbly CNC manufactured in the UK from billet aluminium, the new spacers add 32mm to the length of any 45DCOE manifold and are supplied in kit form with studs, nuts, More >
IT’S NOT A GRIND WITH THIS HANDY TOOL
Dec 7th
One of the most versatile tools you should have in your toolbox is a die grinder. This Air Pencil Die Grinder from Laser Tools (part number 7149) adds even more versatility with its ultra-slim profile and lightweight, making for great manoeuvrability and suitable for intricate work.
By its very nature, an air-powered die grinder is quite bulky and it’s connected up to a heavy workshop compressed air-line. However, this air pencil is small, light and compact; and it’s connected to the workshop air-line by 1.4-metres of super-thin and very flexible hose, making it easy to use even in really tight locations More >

RECOGNISING THE PAST
Dec 7th
The power of the re-imagined and the recreated is undeniably strong at the moment. Retro cars made modern is now a trend for any number of cottage industries turned massively successful businesses in recent years – firms like Singer for its 911 recreations and Eagle for its E-type re-imagining have chiselled out a niche in the classic car marketplace that’s almost impossible to better. There’s a good reason for the obsession as well – modern underpinnings with retro good looks makes an awful lot of sense – practicality with new age performance and economy…What’s not to like?
That’s only part of More >
EASY CHANGE
Dec 7th
Now you can save time and energy when replacing a flat or punctured tyre on a twin axle trailer with the B-G Racing Tyre Changing Ramp.
The Tyre Changing Ramp simplifies the wheel changing process. Simply loosen the wheel nuts/bolts on the damaged wheel and drive the good wheel onto the Tyre Changing Ramp. The damaged wheel is then suspended off the ground allowing for work to be carried out safely and efficiently, before driving the trailer back off the ramp and re-tightening the nuts/bolts.
No more messing around with jacks or makeshift shims; no problems with a jack sinking into the More >
