possibly one of the best mods ive done so far tbh,
my ones were pretty spongy on one side though,
feels like a different car now, so much more predictable means you can throw it in with confidence!
id recommend them!
getting the old ones out were an absolute cnut though! unless you have a...
as said, (god rob!!) i changed the gearbox oil with the clutch, <1k ago,
upper mount is brand new ktec one now,
dogbone mount is a pollybush,
and ktec gearbox mount is on my christmas list lol,
wishbone bushes are new powerflex one and droplinks are also new.
Are they REALLY worth the money??
i mean it all comes from the same hole in the ground, and many of them are refined in the same places. The only difference is in whats added by the different companies!
and im sure a lot of them are just over marketed bull turd!
on an old 100k miler, is it...
So after a month of owning my valver, ive finally got it how i want it,
(£700 odd pounds later :( )
so i want to give it a good service!
(promped by watching last nights top gear with the avantime dropping 40bhp after 6 years!!)
so what should be on my list of things to change??
ive...
if only i had seen it earlier, without reading anything i was thinking it looked like the matiz out of the potnoodle advert!
purpose built barry boys car FTW!
I have a set of yoko Sdrives, with 3mm or so left of tread,
im probs not going to be in a possition to buy much more than T1Rs or paradas atm.
if i put them on the rear, how many miles should they last?? before theyre on the limit??
stripped out car, and i never do any handbrakes!
Be brave,
and lower it,
a lot!!
i started on one of these,
and did the following (sorry this might drag)
Fogs with coded surrounds
LamiX the fogs,
dual optic headlights
smocked side repeators,
cc badge
cc bumpers,
laguna splitter
ph2 rub strips
ph2 rear lights
debadge,
dyanmic spoiler...
i wouldnt do it with a 360 tbh, i had a ps2 in my old clio, that was simple.
xboxs have a habbit of eating discs if you knock them,
you over every bump it will probs scratch the disk pretty badly.
mine used to do it all the time,
and they also didnt look corroded at all,
i just gave the plug a wiggle, and at a certain angle, it worked perfectly,
had to do it every couple of months mind!
this is how they come from fancy plates. no BS number or info of the printer so technically theyre completely illegal!
but it doesnt make the car unsafe so im not that bothered, ill drive about until i get stopped, then ill come on here b**ching about it :D
if you wanted the lettering the same...
power doesnt come cheap,
cams and remap will be the easiest way to get real gains, but its a lot of money!
pound for pound, completely stripping the chuff out of it would be the best mod!
powerflex bushes,
suspension mods,
tyres!
Got my cut down plate this morning and fitted it,
i love the look, fits so much more flush with the bumper.
just hope i dont get too much unwanted attention for it!
My front end finally looks the way i want it, and i couldnt be happier!
using the search function would have saved you time,
there's hundreds of threads on this problem, it's just that common!
its corrosion in the light cluster, either cut it out and wire a new one in,
or just clean the connectors up, it should solve it!
why not just buy another single alloy??
as said, try and get the council to pay for it,
failing that, keep them till new year when all the potholes start appearing,
find a nice big one, and say you did it there! (as far as im concerned, the council owe you the money for it either way, who...
so why when asked what car you own do you declare the worst of the bunch??
keyboard warrior alert me thinks!
pics, or GTFO!
and to the OP,
the paintwork looks alright,
and the smoothing is spot on,
HOWEVER, to make a 1.2 look good, you need to drop it literally to the floor!!
and get some...
i also thought the veyron let off as soon as the GT-R had gone past,
and im not sure what happened at 1:09, first honk the veyron plants, then lets off, then plants again, unless it was traction control kicking in,
screw doing that in the wet!!!
you havnt told us your income yet?! or how much dispoable income you have!!
how else can we know if you can afford it??
get some insurance quotes,
and do you intend to do all the work/servicing yourself??
i know some of the owners on here are 19, and im sure there are younger owners out there
between 195/45/15 and 195/50/15,
i currently have 195/45/15 all round,
but need to replace the back tyres only,
and i notice, that my budget will go a LOT further buying 50s
(which is what valver came on standard)
question is, if i just buy 50's at the rear, ill still have 45s at the front...
