With coil suspension all round, an engine based on the legendary Dolomite Sprint and stunning futuristic looks the Triumph TR-7 should have been a world beater.

Through their involvement in racing the team members at GAZ Shocks have become quite the experts in designing performance suspension for various BMW models.
Now GAZ has produced a monotube design suspension kit to fit all E46 models.
GAZ gas-charged Monotube Coilovers are far lighter than other types of coilover damper and make more use of lightweight billet aluminium parts that reduces unsprung weight. This makes them ideal for serious trackday or competition use. They also react quicker and can be used in an inverted position. (note damper on the left of the picture).
GAZ Monotube Coilover kits come with silicone chrome springs and the required mounting hardwear. The spring platforms are adjustable to allow the ride height to be altered as required and the bump and rebound settings can be adjusted by means of a knurled collar at the top (or bottom if used inverted).
Like all GAZ coilovers the monotubes carry a two year warranty for non race use.
Bespoke valving and the customer’s preferred spring rates are also available.
GAZ Monotube Coilover Suspension Kits for the BMW E46 retail at £2100.00 (including front and rear top mounts).

Fidanza, Americaʼs leading performance flywheel specialist, has just announced direct replacement lightweight aluminium flywheels to improve the performance of the Honda Civic Type R and the Civic Si.
The Fidanza aluminium flywheel replaces the heavy standard flywheel and improves the power-to-weight ratio thus making the engine more responsive as well as improving performance and acceleration.
The Fidanza aluminium flywheel is made from high-quality machined 6061 T6 aluminium with a 1050 steel friction surface, CNC machined fastener holes and chamfers with military grade fasteners. The steel friction surface of the flywheel (shown in the image with its green protective coating) is heat treated for optimum grip and a long service life. It is also replaceable so when the surface eventually becomes worn it can be changed without having to replace the whole flywheel.
Every Fidanza flywheel application is a unique design that has taken into account overall balance, critical clearances, tensile strength, heat dissipation and optimum weight saving thereby striking a careful balance between reducing the original weight and maintaining a smooth idle for day-to-day street driving.
Fidanza flywheel 191211 for Civic Type R has a RRP of $560.67 Fidanza flywheel 191191 for Civic Si has a RRP of $565.21 UK pound prices will fluctuate with exchange rates and goods are subject to import tax and delivery charge – for details contact sales@fidanza.com. However, Fidanza has some amazing discounts on offer at the moment with the Civic Si flywheel available from Fidanza.com at just $388.99 for a limited period only!
