Further to the discussions held at the October AGM, I am pleased to announce the appointment of Tristan Carroll as our new 'Website Editor'.

I would like to formally thank Tris for his commitment to this post and the imminent major revamp of the main club website.

Tris can be contacted via private message /email from his 'member listing' under 'TristanC' or click the email link below from the main website

I also wish to thank Tris along with NickT for spending many many hours backing up and relocating this forum to its new 'place' this weekend. Not a simply task as you can imagine, but seamlessly done and now running better than ever before. It is gratefully appreciated for all the late nights and early (3.00am) mornings spent on this.

Thanks again Guys

  Back to the Future part III
Posted by: alexadams1 - 20 Nov 2006, 08:53 - Forum: Off topic talk, general chat etc - Replies (13)

I bought a BTTF III model a couple of days ago, the one with the stuff on the hood and the red/silver wheels. the wheels are proportionate to the original DMC, but on the movie they are the same size, front and rear.

The front wheel arches are smaller than the rear though, would this mean that the movie wouldnt be able to turn left or right as good as a standard D'?

  FORUM TRANSFER 18 NOV 2006 14:30 - 19:00
Posted by: NickT - 18 Nov 2006, 14:05 - Forum: Forum Updates and Advice - Replies (1)

To all,

With the recent downtime of the current ISP it has been decided that the harmonisation between the current forum hosting and the www.deloreans.co.uk will be rapidly brought forward (, as noted in the AGM at the NEC)

The transfer will be done this afternoon from 14:30 and should be active before 19:00 if all the export/ reimport SQL data transfer goes to hand.

The majority of the work has been done in conjunction with myself and Tristan last night and this morning to minimise disruption with this hopefully seamless transfer.

The new forum will work in the same way as before.

ALL data will be transferred which is why this forum will be locked/ closed down during this short interim.

Once the forum is back up please let us know if something has been missed using the Forum Error Reporting Forum or email me at

NickT@ukdmc.co.uk (this email will be active for 2 weeks after this post has been posted)

Please be constructive in your errors giving as much detail as possible.

Once this is up and working we would be grateful if you could update any links in your favourites or personal web sites to reflect this change.

Thank-you in advance for being patient.

NickT.

With £££ your DeLorean can have the power of these cars. The PRV in these is an even firing PRV with EFi.

The forum is not loading properly/at all. Other webpages are fine. In the last few minutes it has recovered. It has been wrong for most of today.

  Larger stock wheels
Posted by: Chris Hawes - 15 Nov 2006, 10:04 - Forum: 6 - Brakes / Wheels / Tyres - Replies (2)

For the owners that would like to maintain the stock look and update the wheel profile to 21st Century or just to accomodate larger brake assemblies see what you think of these:-

Clearly done on Photoshop. The front wheel is too big but the rear is well proportioned:-

This one was modified from a DMCH proposed wheel apparently:-

[Image: ModifiedBig.jpg]
The above allows the brake assemlies to be more visible. Looks like a Genereal Lee wheel.

I like the stock looking wheel. If DMCH were to make a larger alloy, they would surely sell more of the stock look than any other design.

  Standar manual transmission with V8?
Posted by: Knight - 14 Nov 2006, 14:05 - Forum: 4 - Transmission - Manual & Automatic - Replies (5)

I'm worried that the standard delorean transmission isn't strong enough to cope with a 350 small block V8 what do you think?

  Door Lights
Posted by: Paul McKay - 14 Nov 2006, 10:55 - Forum: 3 - Electrical - Replies (6)

Hi all,

I purchased my Delorean at the start of last year, and as the door lighting would run down the battery, i disconnected the wires from the switches.

I have since replaced the bulbs with leds, but no matter how i connect the wires back to the switches the lights wont work. I have checked the fuse which is fine and tried various ways of connecting the wires back to the switches to no success.

What am i doing wrong?

Can someone also please be kind enough to look at their Delorean, and confirm which wires go where. 4 on driver door and 2 on passenger door.

Thank you.
