i have a knocking drive shaft, i have had the car into the garage, who have told me it is impossible to say which one it is in the current state, the only way to distinguish it, will be when it gets worse, it knocks when setting off on full lock, they have told me it is safe to drive and causes...
just put some williams wheels on my 172 cup, all bolts are tightened up and the wheels appear to be flat against the hub on all 4, but looking at the center of the wheels where the center caps would be, only one of the wheels seems to be flush upto the lip on the center of the alloy the other 3...

sounds like my exhaust is on the way out, not something i've ever had to replace before, so never looked into them, got a standard one on at the minute, but would like an aftermarket one, not to loud for everyday driving, but dont mind a bit of noise when on full pelt :o

turinis gone, oz f1's in! as good as turini's looked on the cup i wanted something different, and the ride on 15's is a million times better than the 16's, not to mention cheap tyres, these wheels will be staying like this for a while, pics dont really do it justice, looks spot on in the flesh...
parked up on my drive last night, ( its quite steep ) went to put the handbrake on and it nearly went through the roof! still seemed to work, but felt as though something had either just let go or slackened off a lot, anyway i did not trust it so parked the car on the front of the house where it...

The seat in my 172 cup does not recline, slides back and forth no problem but if i want to let passengers in the back it wont budge, had a quick look and it seems the metal cable has snaped inside the seat, can this be replaced? and is it easy or do i need a new seat?
cheers
