When i do mine, i jack it up on the 4 poster, then put the gauges on then lower the car back down slowly making sure they dont get th arches. easy :)

IVe got custom 90mm springs on the rear of mine and i have no camber issues :)

Yep, Great place, photos of my dash are on there, ive also had all my interior done by them :)

13mm socket iirc :) easy as.

I saw the black ph1 today guys, awesome bit of kit, looking forward to updates :D

I grinded both ends of mine off to free it then wd40 and the hammer and punch as said.

All i can say is, AWESOME!!!!

Cheers mate :)

I need 5mm or maybe 10mm spacers so the wheels stop catching the struts, but ive heard bad things about some sort of spacers etc, Are hubcentric ones the best and do i need longer wheel bolts? Last question, wheres the best place to buy them from? cheers.

Cheers guys, The seats are going as soon as work pays me, as for the yellow springy things they ust stop the doors flying open and people going in there at shows. :)

I dont normally post photos of my clio on here, but heres a few with the turbines on and flocked interior. And well, il let you decide about this one, its all about being different, each to their own. Cheers.
