Hi there, As part of the ongoing modification to my 1976 3500 P6 I would like to consider upgrading the brakes so that they will better handle my engine upgrade that will add a significant amount of additional power to my car. I would appreciate advice on what others have done to significantly...

Speed humps are an increasing reality in the land of OZ........but will never stop good hearted folks from enjoying motor carriages travelling at a height lower than that stipulated in the owners manual.........a combination of using alternative roads, reducing ones speed over the dreaded hump...

Hi there, You asked if there were any problems with the front end bottoming out? The answer is NO......and I lowered my car 2" in the front........however I did have problems with the car bottoming out in the rear and that was with 1.5" lower......so I brought the level up 1/2" (to 1" lower...

Hi Jonny, I have successfully lowered my 1976 P6 V8 courtesy of some great advie from this site.......one of the readers in NZ had lowered his car and the advice that he gave was great. I measured my car against other standard P6 Rover in Sydney and the rear is now 1" closer to the ground via...

Hi Guys, Thanks for the interest in my topic. I am trying to be able to simply push the button on my central locking remote and be able to unlock the boot as I walk up to the car. Being able to have the boot unlock AND release itself remotely is nice but NOT a big deal for me. Regards...
