yeah ive never had any big probs with the rozzers, in fact i got off quite lightly when i handbraked it round a corner in a car park, only to see 3 squad cars parked up about 15 feet away as i came drifting round the corner!!!! they didnt know what the f**k to say to me, looked like i was...

sidcup, kent - u?

i would agree with lofty - while the visions of transforming the bog standard RT into a valver-beating legend are v.pretty, i have had to rationalise myself and convince myself that its just not economically feasible! ive decided to make it look good and keep it in very sound mechanical health...

ok mate, ive gotta do the same job at the weekend so b interested to see how you get on!

youve done pretty unbelievably well if thats what they changed, i think the RRP of the parts would come up at about£35-£40 !

thats how i would do it yes. cant remember which way lowers / raises it, youll just have to try and see what happens! measure the height off the ground before you start, and it should be 30mm higher if you have put it one click back. thinking about it, if you havent marked it and the bar has...

what did they do? must have given you a job sheet?! a bargain or an expensive 16 quid if they did sh*t!

what mileage services it in for? 6000 they would at least change the oil and filter and labour you for it!!!! yeah theyve made a mistake - u sure it was a service?!!! what did they say the 16 quid was for?

that aint a service! theres more than that on just labour if you get it done at a garage...unless you did it yourself?!

ok this is how i would do it if i were you.bascially , you should have marked the relationship between the splines on your torsion bar and the groove in the housing in the centre before you removed the torsion bar from it completely. this would tell you how it is aligned at the moment. then, you...

ah got ya! first time ive heard of ppl hightening their motor ;). how much you gonna have it dropped by then in total? put some pics up when its done!

game on, ill get me kosh

right, i havent seen under the RT so im not sure if its the sme either, but i would have thought it would be - you wanna jack up the centre bit that the torsion bars go into dont you? ie where they have come out of? havent done this myself, and am going on the guide aswell, but it looks like...

t**sers...should have given them the finger (well perhaps not). now you understand why theres so much burglary and street crime - the feds are too busy cruising burnin up their petrol (or our money should i say).

think the forum was down for a bit about an hour ago, i kept getting a 500 internal server error? might be linked to that?

if the engine runs cooler will that slightly decrease performance? are nt they supposed to run at an optimum temp?

im after seeing how a 60mm drop on my car will look. now i was just thinking that as the wheel is a 15" + 195/45 (is this in mm?), you could do a bit of simple maths to work out the proportional drop needed in pixel terms on the screen. now as im no photoshop genius (and i have no image...

sorry to hijack the thread, but one more q about the fuel filter: when looking at it from underneath the vehicle, the arrow indicating direction of fuel shoul d be pointing outwards (i.e. to the door). the reason i ask this is that the existing filter points towards the centre of the vehicle...

did mine the other day, was fed up of everyone flashing me - were way out though. didnt have any markers like ben gave but just used my judgement and compared them to my dads car. why do my lights never give out a nice even triangle of light, like other cars i see on the road - the light is a...

yeah my uncle told me that after i rang him up the first time i did one effign and blinding about how i couldnt be 100% sure id done it properly! saves so much worry!

where did you get these from again - wongy, looked on andyspars and it only lists one type of thermo?

starting to see the above posts point - when im driving on m/ways etc. you are always looking on the lanes inside of you, and can almost always tell if they are going to overtake the car in fron becuase of their relative speed. i hate the c**ts that try to block you from overtaking, whats the...

what do you guys use to clamp the hose in place? the last time i tried to dfo this my clamp didnt work and i covered myself in petrol:oops:

http://www.cliospares.co.uk/parts.htmhttp://www.cliospares.co.uk/parts.htm rign them - dunno if theyl have one?

ouch - my mate did the same thing not looking as he tried to change lanes, luckily the driver in the other lane was alert and got his horn down quickly! i was bricking it though, dont fancy a 70mph smashup!

yeah i drove an escort once that had this problem, it was really really wierd, like when you took a corner the wheel felt like it was collapsing, suddenly becoming very light, and then heavy again! thought it must be very dodgy, sorry i never hung around to find out what it was down to!

i thats cleared that up then! i reckon im gonna get the eibachs, i can cope with not having the most slammed motor about but i wanna keep it driveable, and from everyone ivspoken to they all say the ride gets so much better with these! cheers for your help everyone, time to get the wallet out...

and what would they do with it once they took it off you? rag the sh*t out of it? and how long would they have it for?! i need to read about it a bit more before i condemn them all to death but it sounds very ominous!

just saw this on the cliosport main site piston heads bit: http://www.pistonheads.com/rants/default.asp?storyId=6342http://www.pistonheads.com/rants/default.asp?storyId=6342 is this for real? if so, this give the feds almost unlimited power over you!!! anyone know anything about this?
