I did think powder was different to paint. What've you done yours with? C5?

This has probably been covered somewhere in this thread but I can't find where abouts for the life of me. I'm having some Turinis powdercoated this week, how long will I have to leave them before I can apply something like Gtechniq C5? Do I need to let them 'breathe' for a bit?

f**k 'em Mark, everytime you post, stick a stat update up :up:

Mrs just bought my ticket for me :cool:

Lol'd at the lube bit. Don't be squirting your lube somewhere it shouldn't be going haha. We're all the pops and bangs just in normal mode?

Hi all, Got some Turinis that could do with a spruce up. Looking for an OEM kind of finish, Silver with a little bit of flake but not OTT. Dropped them off at a powdercoaters yesterday and had a look at a few finishes. They had silver with no flake in it and a few really sparkly silvers but...

Think that was pro plates that he sorted it with.

Looks great in them pics. What size plate did you go for?

Yeh they've not scaled the characters down on that one have they? How you finding boost?

True dat!

On a 1*2, ET30 won't stick out tooooo much, you need to be at 25 and under to be flush with the arch.

Oh thought the OP was just asking from a 'will they fit' point of view.

Eh? There's plenty of people running lower offset than that!

That's where I put mine. Always been sturdy enough for me. When you've got it on the 2 stands, just give it a good push to make sure it isn't going anywhere.

Got a link to the stuff you've bought? I wouldn't mind doing this.

Could be a million and one things, hard to say without having a look. Sure it isn't something simple like your wheel scraping on the arch liner? Could happen if something's come loose when you put everything back together.

Looks a bit rough around the edges ;)

*snigger*

AP's also have anodised blue adjusters.

How the hell did that shed pass with no advisories? Defo paying the MOT guy a couple of quid ;)

That sounds ace, is that with sports cat and silencer?

I took mine out and just had a rubber thing on top and bottom of the spring but it was just a touch too low and would scrape on the arch on certain speed bumps. I've just got 2 rubber things at the top of the spring and one below and it's loads better.

Just get some sockets banged in the rear hangers Paul. Bit pikey but got my exhaust sitting absolutely bang on doing that.

They do sound good but I've been struggling with the mani to cat gasket leaking so I've not got the 'full' sound as yet. It is pretty loud though, I've just fitted a decat as well which will be taking off because it's a bit too loud for me now. Think I've only ever seen or heard of a handful...

Kinda sounds like brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr brrrrrrrr brrrrrrrrrr.

I couldn't work out which way the adjusters went on my KW's but it was too high with them in anyway so never fitted them.

Piper do, I've got one on mine :cool:

Just make sure whatever you do that you prep it correctly, give it a good wash and a drive around the block to dry it off before cracking on with the DA.....

With sparkly new wheels?

I'm running around -2.2 camber and 10 mins toe out. Will be reducing the camber when I next get it aligned as it wants to follow every bump and jut in the road at the minute.
