There are two key factors that will affect the performance and enjoyability of your newly registered and road legal kit car. If you have built your car using a donor vehicle then it will undoubtedly have a used engine and often a used catalytic converter. Terraclean will spring clean your engine from the inside out and will help get your car through the DVSA emissions test which is vital part of the IVA test. It will also restore your car’s sparkle and lost bhp.

Four wheel laser alignment is truly important on a lightweight sports car. it will optimise the handing, improve high speed stability and prevent premature tyre wear

Since the car was invented it has been important that all four wheels point in the same direction!

Over time as the car and its components have evolved, so has the way cars steering and suspension set up or geometry is measured.

Most kit cars are built for a combination of comfort, performance and handling. In order to achieve and maintain the best set up possible, the steering and suspension needs to be measured and adjusted within prescribed specifications.

 

Terraclean

 

Laser Wheel Alignment

 

Terraclean is a new way to maintain your car and improve performance and fuel economy from the fabulous scientists over in Canada, who were commissioned by the Canadian Government to develop a zero emission engine. They achieved this goal, but they also came up with a product that could improve the efficiency of older vehicles.

So what is Terraclean? Quite simply, it's a machine that runs a highly refined fuel through your vehicle.

This fuel burns off carbon deposits in the engine and cleans the exhaust, including the catalytic converter and O2 sensors.


The theory is that over time, cars get a build up of carbon and other nasty things and by burning off these things, a vehicle's emissions will improve dramatically. It's like detailing for the inside of a car.

Does Terraclean work in practice?
Terraclean was featured on an episode of Wheeler Dealers with Edd China. He used Terraclean to clean the inside of a Jaguar XK8 4.2-litre V8, and the results were dramatic. Edd China found that Terraclean pretty much halved the carbon monoxide content of the Jaguar's emissions and practically eradicated the level of hydrocarbons. He referred to these results as "amazing".

This can only be done by measuring all four wheels and having a proper full four wheel alignment measurement.


If only the fronts are set straight, through having a Tracking, two wheel alignment, or Toe & Go, and the rear wheels remain out of alignment (and not adjusted), your car could still suffer tyre wear, pulling and crooked steering wheel.
