I know it's an old thread, but I have a similar question for my mk3. What would be involve in fitting the recaros from another car (accord, vectra, etc), to my own car?

I spy...

What about a decibel killer for the exhaust?

Re: 'Cub's Trackday Flamer - Cage etc' Flol! Well, yes, there was the driving option. Evil voices keep telling me to strip the dirty derv and fit braces. Then I realise it's a 1.5dci with 86bhp, and is my sensible daily. Seriously tempted to sell the bike though to free up some fundage.

Re: 'Cub's Trackday Flamer - Cage etc' Looking forward to seeing the end result. It's projects like this (and the others on here), that make me wish I could buy an older Clio to tart up for track use. Got no way of towing it there though. Lol.

I like the Nissan cube, the juke and this weird. I'm weird.

Pics of you selling spuds out the back of it please? x

Try Renault Wolverhampton in the traders section - should be able to help you out.

My Mk3 didn't have the luxury of the auto lights or wiper setup. So, my question is, what would be needed to make it happen?

Service parts for the Vectra were stupidly cheap on trade. Genuine parts, like oil filters for £1, You could get 4x 5ltr bottles of oil for under £40. I could service the Vectra myself with all genuine parts for around £70 tops.

I miss my old V6 Vectra. Still got my trade card at Vauxhall too.

That sits pretty nicely. Top colour too, be sure to keep on top of that.

Fecking Nora!!! Btw, the change of username threw me off dan!

Cookies needed for the build process old man?

Me? Not got any trackdays planned at the moment. Do need to get a couple in this year though.

Lol! If I had a woman in my boot I'd be happy! Single though.

Best - Cheap to run Worst - unknown knocking from boot driving me mental over the last 6 months.

I don't know if you know your Geography Russ, but he's living in Johannesburg. This means that his car is ALWAYS in his garage when at home, which is in a secure gated community. At work, it's parked in a secured and guarded car park (We're talking a guy operating an electric gate, who sits...

The garage who changed the tyres checked that. As I said above though, it doesn't matter what wheel it is on the front offside corner, so I doubt he has a problem with all 4 wheels.

Car is parked on a flat concrete, painted floor, in his garage. No kerbs and wheels are pointing straight or near as dammit. It won't be mates letting it down, as it's either at work, or in his home (which being in Jo'burg is in a gated community).

But on every wheel, if it's put on that corner? That's a bit of a fluke. Remember, it doesn't matter which wheel he puts on that 1 corner, they all do it. However, when the wheels are on the other 3 corners, they're fine!

They've checked the original wheel, but the problem is there with any of the other wheels put on the offside front corner, so I don't think it's the wheels. Especially as they're then fine on another corner.

A mate of mine down in Jo'burg has a weird problem with his Toyota Run-X (Corolla, basically). Off-side front tyre will deflate to flat in about 2 weeks. He needed new tyres all round anyway, so got them put on and asked them to check that rim. New valves, no dinks in the rim, new tyre seated...

1. Don (Track Race 40) 2. Team Gitspeed - Adam & Nathan are a possibility (Track Race 40) 3. Jay (Track Race 40) 4. Mike (Track Race 40 or 60) 5. JP (Track Race 40)

There's a daft little inspection cover on the bottom of the bumper, so if you're slim you might be able to do it that way. Otherwise from memory, you can take off the front wheels and then the arch liners. You can easily get to the passenger side but can't remember on the driver's side.

Haha! Few more BHP and I reckon I could give it a go.

That's the puppies. Shop around though, as you can get them cheaper than that. As for spacers, check out the traders on here if you're a member.

Sweet. I'll ask the boys down the garage nicely if I can borrow their machine and have a fettle. Cheers guys!

I'll consult the good old Haynes manual! It's got it's mot due next weekend so I might ask them to check the alignment on the machine.

Manual adjustment? You mean the toggle switch in the car? If so, that's set to zero. Don't worry about the cost. Trade card. ;)
