AUSSIE ANTI-ROLL
Jun 23rd
Australian chassis specialists, SuperPro has released a versatile new range of fully adjustable anti-roll bar (ARB) links in varying lengths and fitments. This portfolio fits most tuner, road and race cars, offering owners and builders the chance to optimise the operation, efficiency and appearance of either OEM or uprated anti-roll bars.
This product solves several problems for tuners and enthusiasts. Firstly, due to the links being stiffer and having greater integrity than most OEM parts, they ensure that the forces of load transfer created during cornering are transmitted into the bar itself, rather than being lost by bending the links.

TRIBUTE TO TRIBUTE – AND NUBODI
Jun 16th
Alongside Stuart Mills at MEV, one of the most prolific kitcar designers around at the moment is Chris Welch of Tribute Automotive and he really doesn’t hang around when it comes to creating innovative, original and ‘inspired-by’ designs cleverly using donors that are affordable and suit the projects perfectly.
Not one of his current NINE models (eleven really if you include two soft-top derivatives of fixed-heads) should cost you more than £7000 to build including purchase of the donor car. That’s pretty amazing when you think about it.
Chris is a real character and has a superb and razor sharp sense of More >

PETROL PEP-UP
Jun 16th
The American-made and highly regarded Rislone products are now available in the UK via Alton-based distributor’s, E-Teck Ltd.
There are plenty of octane and cetane boosters on the market, as there are oils boosters and engine tonics, many of them amounting to nothing more exciting than Doc Holliday’s Snake Oil, but my American friends reckon this stuff is different and are particularly good.
The Rislone range includes a diesel treatment, engine treatment (known as a ‘tune-up in a bottle’), engine oil supplement and a fuel injector cleaner.
The first one we’ll be trying however, is their petrol treatment, and it’ll be tried in More >
