GAZ has been associated with winning race suspension systems for BMW for many years. Now owners of classic BMW E30 models can also benefit from a GAZ Gold suspension kit that has been specifically made for race and track day use.

Ride height is adjustable through 60mm of adjustment and the damper units are fitted with anodised adjusters for a long life. The height adjusters have a coarse acme form thread for ease of adjustment and to ensure that they remain in good order even after considerable service.

Damper rates are also variable by means of an adjuster knob on the damper body. The GAZ Gold range comes with a gas cell in the reservoir filled with a high viscosity index multi grade oil to prevent cavitation and reduce fade under racing and trackday conditions.

All the units are individually tested before leaving the factory and are covered by a two year warranty.

The GAZ Gold RACING Coilover Kit for BMW E30 can be ordered as part number GGA300A and retail at £965.31 plus.VAT per kit.

Fidanza lightweight flywheels offer….
• Faster throttle response and quicker acceleration
• Additional horsepower to the wheels by reducing parasitic losses due to flywheel weight
• Smoother, faster gear shifting
• Easier braking, better slowing due to reduced rotational mass
• Reduced clutch wear and improved efficiency from better heat dissipation
• Cost savings and longevity (friction plate is replaceable and can be replaced any number of
times when worn)
• Potential for increased fuel economy (if you can keep your foot off the gas!)

The relaunched flywheels come with Fidanza’s new green friction plate coating to protect the friction surface from moisture, oil and grease contamination during shipping, storage and installation.

Easy to Apply and Flexible for Hard to Fit Areas

Boom Mat’s regular aluminium damping material has long been used to reduce vibration and noise whilst providing insulation to protect against extreme heat and cold.

Now meet Boom Mat Flex, a material that is pliable enough to be used anywhere in a vehicle, even in the most challenging areas such as those with tight curves. Unlike Boom Mat Aluminium, Boom Mat Flex easily conforms to odd shapes and tighter bends making it ideal to use inside wheel wells, mudguards or around tubing and pipes.

This new flexible peel and stick damping material is available in packs of two, four or ten. Each section measures 12” x 12” square and can be trimmed to the exact size required.

Boom Mat Flex is made from 2.5mm thick Butyl rubber and has a clear poly surface with a black textured finish. Boom Mat Flex’s aggressive adhesive backing allows it to be shaped and secured firmly around any surface to reduce bothersome noise whilst adding heat insulation. It is also a great way to protect the paint on new, custom, or luxury vehicles.

Boom Mat Flex also has the potential to be used for many purposes other than automotive. For the home, it can be used to sound-proof a home theatre, music room or workshop, or for reducing noise from sheet metal heating and cooling ducts; for commercial and industrial applications it can be used wherever sound-damping is needed.

For SOHC Pinto, YB Cosworth, Esse x V4/V6, Taunus/Cologne V4/V6,RS2000 16v & 2.9 24v BOA engines.

Burton is pleased to announce that it can now supply the latest K&N wrench-off oil filters for a number of popular Ford applications.

Each canister oil filter comes with a hex nut welded to the top of the canister so it can be easily wrenched-off with a standard tool. A hole is drilled through the wrench-off nut to secure the oil filter with a safety wire that is required in many types of racing. The canister features rolled threads to help prevent stripping and provides a smoother installation.

K&N Premium Wrench-Off Oil Filters are specially designed for high durability and high flow rates in extreme conditions. The high flow rate maintains outstanding filtration even during high-performance racing conditions. The superior filter media cleans 99% of damaging contaminants and an anti-drainback valve (where applicable) keeps oil in the engine to help prevent dry starts.

The oil filter walls are highly durable to minimise the risk of debris or rocks damaging the housing. The filters are also designed to handle higher oil pressures without bursting.

K&N Premium Wrench-Off Oil Filter part number KNHP-2004 retails at £12.19 inc. VAT and will fit… Ford SOHC Pinto, Cosworth YB 16v Turbo, Ford Essex V4/V6, Ford Taunus/Cologne V4/V6 Ford Cosworth 2.9 24v, Ford I4 DOHC Sierra twin cam/RS2000 16v engine plus Ford engines in the following other marques : TVR Tamsin 200,TVR280i, TVR 3000M, 3000S, TVR S1/S2/S3/S4, Taimar and Tuscan, Gilburn Genie & Invader, Marcos GT 3.0, Matra 530 1.7 V4, Reliant Scimitar GT/GTC/GTE and Saab 95 & 96.

For Ford SOHC Pinto & Cosworth YB with long stroke sump OPIDSK5.

This is the most efficient dry sump system currently available. It is suitable for YB Cosworth (N/A & turbo) and SOHC Pinto engines from clubman level up to serious full race.
The kit includes: a smooth cast aluminium sump pan with a sealing O-ring to the block face, mounting bosses for a crank sensor bracket, twin filtered scavenge pick ups and an integral baffle assembly. The sump also contains various external mounting points which make it possible to use a custom made cradle to mount the 4wd front diff. whilst clearance is provided for the drive shaft.
The pump mounts on the distributor side of the block and drives from the jackshaft. The pump is a gear type, rather than the more usual rotor type, which gives it many advantages:
Suitable for most Ford SOHC Pinto and Cosworth YB 16v Turbo applications.

• High flow rates
• Capable of reaching and maintaining high
pressures
• Less pressure spiking
• Machined gears with closer tolerances
between gears
• Very robust/durable
• Creates more vacuum (helping the engine to
run by reducing/removing internal pressures
such as piston blow-by)
• Direct porting reduces heating of oil during its
passage through the pump caused by friction

• Excellent performance when oil is cold in
comparison with rotor pumps

• Far more efficient than a rotor pump

• Very compact

Order as OPIDSK5 at £1,708.20incl. VAT.
