Front end clubman

Nobody said, it would be easy. The worst part is, that “wipe the trail in the dark” because the information is HOW very little. Yesterday, after try-dropped my hands and realized, I have no idea how to attach the front, Maciek expression was also eloquent, but we fight on..

The story of the equalizer

All of the progress of work on the GT would be great, if not annoying brake fluid leak. Locate and determine the cause of Mack came very quickly – was damaged brake equalizer. Old age is not happiness. Unfortunately, part is irreparable and as to the “duperele” costs a lot. Without that widgets can ride but it is very nice and the inhibition does not necessarily look like it should. Can be combined with substitutes, dwururkowego assembly “something” and other pantenty, the only question is what, some reportedly breaks down once 20 years, and the time offset expenditure £ dozens.
Freshly, brand new just before assembly.

A history looks like…if the car występowałby equal distribution of braking forces at the axles, This would lock the rear wheels too early and would significantly reduce the vehicle control leading to a slip. During braking, the front axle is more weighted on the rear axle (you can see it perfect “przysiadaniu” the whole front of the car when braking hard) so that the front wheels are inhibited more strongly than the rear wheels. Load sensing braking force between each wheel depending on the load and road conditions by limiting the increase in brake fluid pressure of rear wheels compared with the front adjusting the braking force and preventing the so-called “overtaking the front”. The mini-limiting valve is in a braking set and does not allow the rear wheels to lock during sudden braking.
P.S. Thank you for your contribution substantive Flapowi

The spirit of the mountains

We decided to take a break from miniaków and we went on holiday to Karpacz. M from the car but you can not escape and avoid associations, because our first time to Sandra was just Amberkiem the rally by Pass Okraj and 30 comforter cm of snow on the roof.
We come back full of enthusiasm for the construction of the new GT and hungry zloty experience, and plan trips 2013 year prepared!
Peaceful Christmas and a Happy New Year.

GT stage one

Engine for more than a week is removed and to this day failed to move the box. Implemented an emergency plan – butla i palnik, Yesterday it did not work. Today, the second approach. First, What caught my eye is ubiquitous oil and dirt. So the black box of the block and that's probably never seen. Replacement of worn parts is probably easier than bringing it to an acceptable appearance.

My task is to gather in the, to begin disassembly of the car, so far I have only included the removal of hideous soundproofing of the engine compartment, remove all remaining, cables clean and my "part" is ready.
For comparison, – engine after repairs. Maciek is a great!

Children intuition

My goal is the mission of awareness, What is the Club. I would like to, MINI that users know about the progenitor of his car, were aware of, associate a name with a long nose Clubman and knew, że to mini, but it's only Christmas – New Year's wishes. I am very, that our raisins was a hero of the month and browning on the cover, because although motorist historic motoring fans read it in a sense will also reach a wider audience.
A colleague witnessed just such a conversation in the living room press.
Child: of view mini in the newspaper.
Parent: no co ty, strange. Leave it! Come!

I must admit, that children have an amazing sense and seeing Clubiego intuitively know, it is a Mini. Maybe the size is herein? In any, or if adults occur in the head at a strange car, and the children do not hesitate and you only know!
For most of Sunday, the Club has outdoor and happy spying behavior of people passing by. Walkers paused, viewed, they dismissed the driver or even stopped the car and the kids wytykały your fingers and very glad to face watched. Finally, the car made!
