@qwakers. This jus5 gets to be a bigger bargain as the gas is an Argon C02 mix
@ Honkytonk. I am not that brave, clean thick metal would be a challenge!
@ Neil Just need the wire then

Note to self: get loads of practice. Making a bench and some shelving as a starter project perhaps

Basic question. How can you tell how much gas is in the bottle? The gauge is showing 2000psi.

Hmm! Thought I could just plug it into a standard 3 pin plug!

Following talking to Chris today we have now decided to make this trackday event backed by the Events Team , which means a Club Gazebo will hopefully be erected on the day weather permitting in a spare grass area and there will be a supply of Water, Soft Drinks and Hot Drinks on the day supplied by...

Plugged it in, fan came on squeezed trigger and I have wire feed and sparks.
Gas bottle to fill next week and it’s play time soon!

and a couple of bits of stainless for a real challenge. Their is a mod that can be done to the rear box on the M3 to make it sound a bit throatier!!!!

Whilst I don’t need one, hopefully, at £20 this was worth a punt. Once the car is back in the road then I can have a poke around to see if this works or is a lemon.

Why thankyou oh exalted one! Literally a 5 minute job, degrease, etch primer and two coats of Rustoleum gloss.

Traffic free roads around Oxford on a Saturday you have to be joking. You could drive across toward Bibury and then up toward the A40 and over to Cheltenham for a coffee!

Fixed Brian.

So that's three tyres, two bucket seats, one belt bar, two belt sets and now two cans of green paint to fit in the car. All presuming I get the darn thing back together by 5th February too!

Blimey, you cannot even buy an engineless Westfield kit for that price. An absolute bargain which fortunately I wont fit in and the bank balance wouldn't cover anyway.
Your op permitting I hope we see you at JDM Combe Jon.

If anyone wants any green paint I managed to order two cans and used less than one, considerably less.

List updated We have 40 people and 22 RX8s listed so far, thankyou earlybirds for your confirmed bookings

A lick of green tein paint on that Chris would make it look good as new :thumleft: A bit of interwebbing came up with some Rustoleum Green paint as used by TEIN USA. The units are originally powder coated therefore there is no aftermarket process for repainting offered by TEIN. 229E9449-3453-49C9-B...

I am up for this, especially as we are neighbours!

A compression test can show up a much more than just overall low compression. It is possible to diagnose a broken side seal or apex seal before major damage occurs. It is amazing how much damage a rotary can with stand without any rattles or other obvious symptoms so a compression test can be very u...

Should be some good stuff for a big fire pit in the summer.

Is it a decat on your hot tin roof?

In a different league but if anyone is interested.

Local me if anyone wants me to go and check them out.

LOL a straight Google search brings up the Oxford dictionary definition as “baby-talk word for your buttocks”
Image search results are quite different!

Looks a bit like a boys only weekend at the moment.
