its got to be down to personal preference, the looks are completely different between the two, so only you can decide. for me, im not keen on either.

Oooh, I've not seen this question for about a week!!

yes. it wont be held as securely as it requires. the insides of the bearing have probably moved a little to the outer housing assembly.

I assume the bearing carriers have been fitted/welded in correctly and straight? if its been sat around outside for a while, the bearings themselves, and sleeves haven't suffered the elements too badly have they?

Phil, id been using the Trophy with the AST's, ARB and many other treats etc for a year mate, so I know what its like with it, and I liked it. I was curious if once the bearing kit, and beam bracing kit had been fitted, if id have a need for the ARB aswell? I understand its down to personal...

They are not genuine springs then?

Gotcha. could you hit me with a price sweet cheeks ;) anything else you want to part with that could be of interest to me? edit: you seem to have more goodies hidden in that shed than ive got in my unit, lol.

Sorry Nick, you slipped in there. is it just the bearing kit fitted, or the bracing sections aswell?

a complete beam with it all fitted already Mike? could save me paying a mate to weld it all up for me, and keep a beam as a spare back up :)

I currently have the whiteline ARB, but in motion of having the PMS rear spherical bearing and bracing kits fitted. im in two minds as to wether or not keep the ARB aswell? anyone tried it with both, or has the ARB's requirements now been made pretty much redundant? I don't want to part with...

your dads just used them as oversized nails on the new roofing he was doing over the weekend ;) :p

I was thinking that, under or over tightened maybe? what torque setting did you do it up too?

PICS or STFU! :p

I made a quick setup earlier in the year a day before a trackday, then ended up leaving it like it.

Cheers chap

I've still got the old hub sat in the garage, and the receipt from buying the brand new hub two days before the holiday. in my mind at that point, I didn't have time to waste waiting for them to look at the car and decide what they wanted to do about it. even as it was, the hub was a special...

Daniel, what's your opinion on this one while your attentions on this topic and mind is in motion. we bought a 57 plate 197 R27, 72k on the clock and FRSH, car appeared to be pretty spot on and I was happy to pay the advertised price tag as the dealer wouldn't move on price in the slightest...

ETA? will they arrive in time for the engine build?

Pro Alloy are who ive always used for custom stuff, but nearer to you would be Spec-R, Pete is awesome at his fabrication work and hes sponsored and looked after a mates needs within Time Attack for a good few years, I cant fault the quality or performance of his products. its actually my mates...

Black top strip works for me :)

no problem, or if easier ping over a number and ill give you a call.

but, weights and cost? if the difference of balancing or not to a crank is negligible, I can have my flywheel on the way to you first thing Monday if you fancy the task?

the exact reason why I have one on the Trophy.

worth a view at that price, and quite smart in the nimbus grey.

on a suitable track car, I think that looks okay. I certainly wouldn't be doing it to a road going daily tho.

Cheers James, I couldn't see any pictures so I was making an assumption.

roll it up and put it in a cardboard tube

I have a satin black one on the Trophy, but it suits its appearance, and it has no sun visors either so it does serve a purpose.

What would you do a lightened/balanced flywheel for, obviously supplying the flywheel myself. have you weighed that flywheel you have done, assuming it is a clio item!?

Very nice chap :)
