Re: [Quantum Owners] Automatic Gearbox needed. HELP!
A mate had a complete Quantum (coupe I think) with a 1.1 CVH and auto (CVT?). He was originally going to try to put a Calibra V6 in it but the project fell through. I haven't seen him for a couple of years but last I heard, he still had the car, although it's been laid up for a while. I'll try to get in contact with him and find out if he still has it.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Lowering springs for my 2+2.
My current 2+2 is chassis no 063 and I have fitted standard XR2 on the front and 1100 on the rear with GAZ adjustable dampers 15" wheels with 195/50 15. It handles well and is high enough to get over speed bumps (slowly) but does bottom out on the wheel arches occasionally. I also had this set up on chassis 263 originally with 14" wheels and then with 15" and 195/45 profile tyres. Similar handling.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Lowering springs for my 2+2.
Calum, where in Scotland are you. I am in Paisley and have an early model (063) with standard XR2 front springs and 1100 rears on fitted around 3000 miles ago so still fresh. My car may be slightly heavier at the front with the addition of the turbo and intercooler stuff but it will give you a good guide. There are actually quite a few quantums in Scotland, at least 10 at the last count and probably some more that don't use either The Scottish Kit Car Club or QOC.

Almost worn TOYO R1Rs 195/50 15 on the front and part worn 195/45 15 on the rear. The rear tyres last for ever as they do very little work. Even on a hot day on a track day they hardly get warm. Changed the fronts to 195/50 as R1Rs don't come in 45 profile.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Lowering springs for my 2+2.
Great info as always Matthew. You and Jim put a lot of work into the car and it is pretty unique. I've gone with XR2 front springs and 1100 rears which has raised it slightly. Callum will testify that the handling is pretty damn good. I thinks the mileage is around 52k so it's done a few miles in the last couple of years, including a trip to France. I get the feeling you are missing the little Q?

Re: [Quantum Owners] Vacuum & Volts gauge mounting & install
Dash top if you don't want to move other things. In the radio slot if you can move the radio to the centre console or put the gauges in the centre console but you won't see them very well when driving.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Vacuum & Volts gauge mounting & install
Personally, I would rather have an oil pressure gauge than a vacuum one. It means fitting a sandwich plate at the filter but that's simple enough.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Vacuum & Volts gauge mounting & install
"Can a Y piece be used to connect where the oil pressure sender is?" Martin If you mean the sender for the low oil warning light, then no as its electrical and basically just an on/off sender. An oil pressure gauge will come with its own matched sender unless it's a mechanical one which will need a tube ran to it from a take off in the block or oil filter sandwich plate. Never really liked that type as if the pipe gets damaged or leaks you get oil everywhere.

Hi Darren, That's an interesting MG conversion. Will your Escort parts be available or are you keeping them? Just weighing up options at the moment.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Brake master cylinder conversions
Hi Jim, I didn't know that. At the moment I have no pressure at the pedal and full travel. I guess if I refitted the original set up that yourself and Matthew fitted and I have brakes again then it points towards the master cylinder being too small to cope with the Hispec set up (same as Willwood). Not a huge job, it's just finding time to do it that's the problem. As it's only me that drives the car, I'm not overly concerned about removing the servo ( if I take that route).

Re: [Quantum Owners] Brake master cylinder conversions
That's a fair point Darren and I've heard of that problem with mini calipers. I've got the calipers fitted with the bleed screws at the bottom but maybe they should be at the top, so effectively I may have fitted the n/s to the o/s and the o/s to the n/s (they came with the bleed screws already fitted). There are two on each caliper and they may be interchangeable top to bottom - need to check if there are blanks at the other end or swap them side to side. Worth a try at least.

That's helpful Steve. The Hispec caliper is pretty much the same but only came with one bleed screw on each side.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Tyre pressures xtreme
Here is a trick I learnt years ago. Set the tyre pressures to what you think they might be and keep a note. Take the car for a spirited 10 minute run. Recheck the pressure, if they have risen by more than 2 psi, the pressures are too low. If they haven't risen, they are too high. Repeat the process until you get a rise of 1-2 psi after the run. This should be the optimum pressure.

I thought about the rear disc conversion but even on a twisty sprint track with heavy braking zones the rear drums never got any real heat in them.
