Followed a very nice RB 182 this morning around 7.15am along Pontefract Lane off the M1 (Jct. 45), then a bit further along I was pulling up to the lights at the A61 crossing (near Crown Point) and a black 197 passed by, black badges, very clean. Anyone here?
Cheers for the replies chaps - really helpful. I think after some research 20mm+ may a bit too much for my liking, the KTEC spacers I have on order are not bolt-to-hub sadly @mjcropper, but I'm fully willing to give them a shot. If I'm uneasy or not liking it, I'll reconsider the options...
Makes it easier without having to buy new bolts if I went H&R, however my current bolts suffer from 197-bolt-rust-syndrome and need sorting anyway, they currently have black caps on, so I'd welcome a new set of bolts.
Think I'll order them, see how I go on, cheers for the help, much appreciated.
Cheers Knuckles mate, am I right in saying yours in the picture doesn't have spacers (hence you saying 'it sorely needs spacers') - if so, that's exactly what I was looking to see, lowered and without spacers.
I understand what you mean about bolt-to-hub, hub-centric, and can understand the...
Hey guys,
I'm looking for some advise / pointers in regards to spacers for my RS 197. I'm having a set of H&R springs put on next week which should drop the car nicely and lose the dreaded arch gap, however I'm really on the fence about adding spacers too.
I've looked into it and it seems...
Spotted one of these yesterday in Horsforth (nr Leeds), Koening Mercedes 560 SEC, was parking up as I drove past so gutted I didn't manage to snap a picture, but it was identical to the below but in purple:
Hi all,
Trying to find out, or source, the centre top mount bolt that fits to the top of the damper through the mount. Can anybody help out? I've got a set of springs to go on and a brand new set of cup dampers, however the current dampers have damaged and rusted threads in which the bolt...
I love that, I mean I'm a fan of a tastefully modified clean car, but seeing a completely standard car with so much work done to keep it that way and in original form is awesome, outstanding work sir!
@OssPoop, I'll be doing the same, Saturday ticket and coming from Leeds, so not too far down the M'Way. We should convoy!
Looks like we'll get kicked out at 6pm.
You know, probably me being slow, but when you mentioned you lived in 'Miggy' I automatically thought you meant Micklefield as it's 5mins up the road from me (we call it 'Micky') - now I know what you meant, and I'll stop looking for an Inferno when I drive through there too! :smirk:
I'd be up for a local meet prior to that if we can get numbers together, I recall Dann2707 mentioning he'd get a meet organised soon but just noticed he isn't the area admin anymore! But yeah I'd be keen for a meet.
Think I'm just going to get a Saturday ticket for Cliosport Fest and blast over...
Been playing this at a pals house recently as I'm too stingy to buy it outright. Game is really good, but I also hate it. For the rally stages, can absolutely smash one course then the next completely total my car, messing up the entire rally time-wise. The rally cross events are fun, you can...
Didn't realise there was a topic for this game, been playing this online consistently for the past year and a half, just hit level 900 as of last night!
If anyone still plays my GT is SavageFingers1, been in a club called waki ever since I started out. Mostly play online with a lot of friends...
