Running Nankang NS-2R tyres and soon to be 4 pot brembos.
Can't see me doing massive amount of track days in a year just want something a big more aggressive, not massively bothered about comfort
Just want something that keeps the car stable and flat in the corners. Don't want to spend £500...
Can you get different spring ratings for the Bilsteins ?
Still on the fence as to which ones to get [emoji30]
As said previously, I like the Bilsteins but I want something a bit firmer and due to the rears not being adjustable if they ain't firm enough then it's tough luck. Might have to look...
I just don't like the idea of non adjustable dampeners on the Bilsteins. That was why I looked at GAZ GHA as i know they do. From what I seen, you should avoid GAZ Gold but GHA are ok ...
I have just got Powerflex ones. Car was running 2.3" camber one side and 0.3" on the other. Powerflex only allow for 1" degree so set both to 1.3". Easy job
Currently looking on the market for some coilovers to replace my tired old struts. On CookSport springs at the moment but the standard strut have had it so car is a bit all over the place.
Seen that the B14s can be ordered from Germany at £480, compared to the GAZ ones that come in at around...
Gave the new Nankang NS-2R tyres a little try out last night for the first time in the wet. Well they were not as bad as I thought they would be considering the roads are very greasy. Need to hold caution when entering roundabouts at speed, keeps breaking away on the front. I general though, I...
Yeah welcome to Black Gold. Looks clean after washing until you move it. Best thing really is to get I under a DA polisher with some cutting compound, Will remove most of the swirls. Can buy one for pretty cheap and do your own car. If you get good at it you can then do other people's for cash...
Finding the right cleaning products for you it a real trial and error. Spending £10 on a product then not liking it. There is some good detailing posts on here and do some research helps.
Hope that helps
Washed with AutoGlym shampoo. Auto Finesse polish and then just keep going over it with some bouncers or AutoBrite detailer. Have it a good clay a couple months back, that made the world of difference. Makes the paint feel smooth as glass. Got some poor boys black hole and natty wax to go on...
Got spotted at the Shakespeare speedway and had this picture sent to me. Probably one of the best pictures for black gold....
Did a little bit of work on the car this morning as gearbox seems to be weeping slightly. Don't know if anyone has had any experience with them seal kits from France ...
Cheers Lads
Not sure where I am going to focus my attention next. Really want to get the 4 pots sorted but I still waiting to hear back about the brackets. Might order some front slip on 10mm spacers so I can get the stud kit fitted. That should keep me busy for a day ...
Car has been in for wheels and tyres fitted along with its MOT. Car now has a 12 month ticket on it. Not really much I can add so let the pictures do the talking....
Need to rinse off the bead seal and get some tyre shine on it
