Oh ok. Any idea on the part number?

I've cable tied it tight enough that the rubber bit on it can't get through, so it won't move up and down, but it does have room to move. Should I pull them tight?

How important are they? There was no way I was going to get the ones off my old shocks, they had rusted themselves completely on. The screw had no shape left with the exposed bottom thread a lump of solid rust. So I have just cable tied it loosely in place on my new shocks for the time being...

To be fair, you cant really argue with that :).

Anyone else got this knock?

Nice pics. Lol at the tripod ones :) Loose the Trophy stickers though, they look terrible.

I think there are Sportlines available for non sports, yes. Fitted my Sportlines today. Stiff car is stiff.

I know about the full lock top mount knock (I have that too :)). This is different. It sounds like its coming from under the engine or somewhere.

I've just noticed a knocking coming from my steering when stationary. If I 'wiggle' the wheel left and right a little bit I can hear something deep in the bowels of the engine going knock knock knock. As if there is a bit of play in the steering or suspension or something? I fitted my Sportlines...

Was thinking that or something crazy like day glow yellow.

Does the ABS 'save you from dying a horrible death' thing-a-ma-jig get disabled when the ABS warning light comes on?

Dam this thread. Got me thinking I could max a couple of credit cards and buy some track day lols! Would need to go on a diet and somehow shrink by a few inches first though...

I love this car.

Ahhh! So that's what that little nipple thing is? Always wondered.

Where did this whole idea of any sort of camber, spring adjustments or spacers putting enormous extra stress on suspension components come from?

Seats :) Plates :(

...tow stickers and circuit stickers look best on an Iceberg 172 with silver wheels?

Do they provide any meaningful advantage, specifically for track days? Or should I save the money and buy some pizza...

Typical. Just as HDD prices stabalize at the highest level they have been for years, I need to add another couple of TB to my server :(

Nice

Making a claim on your insurance to repair anything counts as a claim. The difference is weather you have additional windscreen cover on your policy. If you do, then claims for windscreens are not recorded as 'normal' claims, and therefore don't get recorded as such, and don't affect your renewal.

Really? Says who? My documentation clearly says that claiming for a new screen will not affect my premium, as does anyone I have ever known claim for a screen with windscreen cover on their policy. Are you sure you are not confusing a bump in premiums with just the standard default renewal...

:(

Those HP Micro Servers are brilliant. Are they still uber cheap (there was a time when you could get one for about £90)?

Yep, that's the one. And that's the feeling I get from them. The manager comes across as a right piece of work. Why are garages with the best kit always the ones run by the worst people?

Windows Home Server (V1, the Server 2003 based version) on a cheap Desktop PC chassis I bought with a bunch of high capacity HDDs in it. It fulfills the 'just works' factor perfectly. Its Server 2003 underneith so does loads more than something like a NAS would, and the backup/recovery process...

Sorry, meant the size of the head for a socket. I have heard 17mm, 18mm and 21mm.

Its clearly a Juke R marketing video. But, does that matter? Nissan still helped create a totally bonkers Juke, so they deserve credit for that at least, especially given the tree hugging hippy crap nature of most car makers nowadays.

You have never been able to port your number within the same network from one plan to a plan of the same payment type. Its not just a T Mobile thing. You cant do it on any network from one Pay monthly plan to another. The whole idea of 'porting' a number is to remove it from one network provider...

What size are the 2 bolts that join the bottom of the front struts to the hub on phase 2 172's? Cheers
