Recently I noticed that the rec counter needle seems to be a bit slow in matching the actual engine revs [up and down], it get there eventually – anyone had something similar?

Also I’m looking for someone that could supply me with a new [if there is even such a thing now] or refurbished rolling S3 chassis – no engine, gear box or diff needed or socks/springs as I intended to renew or refurbish these but would like the trailing arms, wishbones, bushes and hubs on the chassis.

Thanks

Nigel

Thats a bargain at that price.
I've dealt with the guys there for a few small parts and have nothing but praise for the service I received.

That's great value for money! Hopefully they'll get round to the V8S chassis sometime.

I'm sure they could do a V8s chassis just not on an exchange basis. Personally I think I would prefer my own chassis back anyway.

If any help to you my S3 rev counter was also a bit lazy/slow turned out to be battery not being fully charged from lack of use, the car needed a decent run and fine now.
