Oke, I have done some thinking on the issue of the missing M10x50 bolts

If you all agree I want to change the contents of the sets for the people who have ordered 2 sets. It will not be impacted too much I think as you will have enough bolts which you can combine in sufficient ways.

If you ordered 2 sets, I want to make these as follows:

one set:
M10x40, 2 bolts
M10x50, 4 bolts (i.s.o. 6)
M10x60, 2 bolts
M10x70, 2 bolts
So you will recieve twice this amount of bolts if you ordered 2 sets.
Price will drop to 10pounds excl shipping for two sets (was 12 pounds).

If you ordered 1 set you will still receive the bolts as I planned earlier:
M10x40, 2 bolts
M10x50, 6 bolts
M10x60, 2 bolts
M10x70, 2 bolts

Does everybody agree with this new idea?

[NickB787]

Yep no problem, glad you could get these for us Nick

[R1 nur]

Fine by me. No pressure.

[snoopstah]

Reserve list looks quite big, but if there are enough cancellations I'd certainly like a set

[kipper]

Yep, that's fine Mike Dave K

Same as if possible

Mike, you have e-mail.

[Muncher]

Mike, are you ready to send them out? If so I can send a paypal payment straight away, I'm looking to do some work on the car over xmas so if they could be sent before then, that'd be great.

[DutchMike]

I could do that for a couple of people Muncher, I am still quite busy with work and the house, but for the persons who are really in a hurry I can see if I can send them out beginning of the week. There still is the issue of the length of missing thread for the longer bolts, so you could check that right away. If it turns out that they won't fit ( ), I will lower the price, because that would s*ck.... Probably I will fit the bolts before christmas, so we will know anyway, but you might check as well if I am not sure.

Email sent Mike

Muncher/Paul :
I mailed your bolts today, if I think about it I will mail you tonight about the payment, I hope I can figure out payment by PayPal!

A package with one set of bolts appeared to be 509grams heavy , next package I have to try to get the weight below 500grams, saves one and half euros

[Muncher]

Cheers Mike, just let me know how much they were!

[DutchMike]

Oke, goed news, I changed out the old 8.8grade bolts for the new 10.9grade bolts yesterday. It seems that there is enough thread left on the M10x50, M10x60 and M10x70 bolts .

Around Christmas I will start sending the bolts to the UK, but then I need some more adresses I think . Please email me your FULL adress if you did not already do that: maik@planet.nl

Yesterday I placed my new wheels and tyres and got a new geo set-up. Could not really try everything out on the way back to my house as it rained and haled! Not a good mix with new tyres which have a silicone layer on them

New wheels:



Do not be afraid, the big black wing was just for trying

[NickB787]

Like the wing Mike looks cool I hope you got my address OK Nick

[DutchMike]

More wing piccies





First things first, I first want to get comfortable with all new adjustements and the fatter tyres, if I still do not have enough grip, I will think of a big bad black thingy

[Muncher]

Have you got Nitrons mike?

[DutchMike]

Yes, I have. Do you have a problem with that? Muncher, did you already receive the bolts? I am curious how long delivery takes....

[Muncher]

Yes, I have. Do you have a problem with that?

Muncher, did you already receive the bolts? I am curious how long delivery takes....

Just wondering Mike, as that's what I'd go for to get more grip. How are you finding them, I've been out in one car with them and was very impressed, need to earn more money!

The bolts haven't arrived yet Mike, did you send them by courier? or the Dutch equivalent of Royal Mail?

[DutchMike]

The last one. Should take 5 working days.... Hope you will receive them this week! The Nitrons are worth every penny, just like all other people tell I even ordered stiffer springs, resulting in NO bodyroll at all The new year is coming, just ask your boss for a raise man
