I broke a rear stub axle on weekend (kombi to 930) just wondering where is the best place to get new ones from ? And can you get fully billet ones or are they all made from welding a kombi stub to a Porsche flange ? -- Edited by nt on Monday 3rd of December 2012 07:43:20 PM

Do brake lines, the flexible ones to the calipers have to be to a similar spec to ADR? I work for Pirtek and can make teflon hoses for days. But that won't mean anything if I can't use them. Thanks in advance.

I need some advice on the type of tube required for the repairs of my buggy please. I currently have 35mm OD X 2.5mm and two other smaller size tubes as angle braces and steering mounts. It seems to be the correct size as per CAMS but is there different sizes for different grades of steel. I'm guessing it's...

Was thinking of dragging my Jimco over to play in the dust of Ausi. We originally built up the Nissan engine with 95.5mm pistons but had so much slap (with a stock bore engine) that pistons we collapsed a skirt. On cosworth's recommendation (the only ones to make a stock bore off the shelf piston) we dump...

My kombi 1800 gearbox is jumping out of second gear under acceleration, all other gears are fine. (All gears are albins) It's not the linkage as I have disconnected it and problem still is there. Has anyone else had this issue and what was the cause ?

I have to replace the front beam in my buggy and all I read is standard length plus XX inches. How long is a standard beam to start with? Mine is 2" (50mm) diameter X 42" (1050mm) long. Close to accurate as it is now bent to the shape of the tree that leapt out in front of me. Anyone got one to sell?

Hi guys we have a 2.7 Honda V6 that was mounted to a Kombi box running a Hi Torque starter, we have a un5 now went to mount it in and realised that the starter wont mount into the VW bellhousing because the un5 is wider than the bellhousing. Is there any fix for this besides a new adaption plate ?
