Disappointing hearing that about Spax.
When my rear shocks started squeaking, I got in touch with them. Sent them back for inspection and in less than a week had a brand new pair on my doorstep. Couldn't fault them at all.
Thats exactly what I'm like at the moment. I could maybe push for £3.5k but in the last 10 months owner ship I already have £3k in receipts for parts I've bought not even including the car. So yeah I could buy something that already handles and has a nicer interior but then I'd need to get that...
Very confused lol.
Pistonheads/Ebay etc don't help. Look at Astra VXRs, Megane R26, VX220, Focus RS, next its something on lease then i put myself owning a car on finance because i'll get bored etc lol. Then I love the Astra again, and then repeat.
Really not sure what to do :( What you been...
£100 for injectors with rail brand new and a similar price for the MAF. Although the MAF is indentical internals, its only the 80mm housing you need!
Yeah fronts bolt right in, rears need slight modification.
What they'll look like fitted -
Boost gauge looks good. Not too in your face.
I've sorted a rare pillar pod for 2 in mine but not sure whether to fit it or not. Need to check boost levels actually since new turbo is one.
Old broke one with knackered oil seals, half in play in shaft and a crack by wastegate was peaking at 16...
Would you have another one?
I love my mates, its absolutely fantastic. His is around 650bhp. I honestly don't think I could own one without crashing or being killed/banned from driving lol. The way it gets to 160+mph is just brutal. It doesn't need much road at all! The way it hangs its arse...
Yeah pulled far to many times! Police always been absolutely fantastic. Been let off quite a few times for 3 figures speeds! 105 and pulling away was one lol. Managed to wiggle my way out of it <3
And quite a few other silly speeds.
Only time I've ever been given points was for parking on zig...
How expensive is it to take out a full years policy? Then just cancel within the cooling off period. Usually works out much much cheaper than temp insurance.
A mate done it on his EVO 9 360 at 21. Cost him £17 for a week with Admiral after taking out a full policy then cancelling lol.
