give it a goood scrubbin with gunk or similar - yeah like leigh said how crazy you want it?! i rememebr seeing a mk2 golf in max sh*te about 3yrs ago, the nutter had chromed EVERYTHING that could be chromed, the whole of the underneath of the car, the lot. looked mad, but just ridiculous to...

thin about getting some bigger wheels tro fill the arches mate when the car is slammed - will look a lot more striking to the eye! you could have a go at the torsion bar yourself if youre that way inclined - i think theres a good guide on the main site somewhere.

ok, i read that adi clicked his torsion bar about 60mm and dropped the front on springs, (about -40mm?). anyway, i can do both jobs myself, so would just have to buy the springs. i know the dampers wil wear more quickly with the shortened springs, but how long are they roughly to last - i know...

me - sidcup, kent. ben - tell me bout southampton, wetn to look at the uni there today! looks pretty good, gonna do the music course there. whats the town like (sorry to hijack the post, you can PM it to me if you want!)

f**k. that really saddens me that theres sh*t like that going on malice. that just about sums it up for me-somethign i dont think the police, government, or anyone else will EVER get to the bottom of.

adi - wanna know about your suspension!

my first car was an old banged out 1985 k10 micra - sh*t i know, but a good first car that you can learn how to drive properly in - good economy, V.reliable (never had a problem with starting,only had to replace clutch as it was still on original:o !). yeah they loked absolutely sh*t and had no...

i can fill with about £28 quid (no more like £35 the way these prices are fixed - 77.9 the cheapest i found yest!!!) and get about 280 miles out of it.

what r the arches there for in the first place? is it just a kind of mudguard?

sbm - some peopel get away with it no probs, even with slammed 16s some say its ok, maybe just a bit of a catch on ful lock. me, my 15s dont rub atall, but i reckon the 16s would, its quite tight.

lol about 6-7 quid?! adi, sorry2change the thread a little but u got the torsion bar clicked and front springs fitted for 160, is that right? did you not get new dampers? if not, are they still standin now, or did they f**k up quite quickly?!

Just read your story ben, i had a similar thing about 2 months ago where some tw*ts woke my mum and her bloke (ex para) up about 5am sun mornin - they were in the middle of fishing my keys through the letterbox, and dropped them! he rushed out of the house (wearing nto much!) and saw them, but...

ok let me know how you get on, be interested to see if theres any improvement!

somethign ive always thought about engine transplants...doesnt the different characteristics of other engines (weight, centre of gravity, angle at which the sit) affect the performance of the car after its been put in? do you just live with it, or is the difference unnoticeable, or does it...

brun, i seem to remember nick hill saying that you want to keep the filter as close to the engine as possible? why do you want to relocate?

yeah id second what mike says, try the auto express to sort it out - nothin like a bit of bad press to get a dealer to suddenly see the light! sounds absolutely awful service though, i cant believe hes even trying it. fight the f**ker!

thats sh*t mate, are you sure you dont wanna put that kind of bill through your insurance? it would only not be worth it if your renewal for the next peroid went up by the same amount or more surely? its b****cks to think about anyway, but can you afford 1500 notes? the tw*ts.burn em!

aaron mate...aint i seen that pic somewhere before ?! ;)

hmm, not too sure! but put both front seats right down n i can see an interesting nite in with the mrs ;)

got my rt up to about 115, with the 15s on tho they really slow her down, reckon if i was going ofr long ebough i could get about the same, but havent gone any faster than a ton with them on. agree with rhys - those kinds of speeds feel sh*t fast in my rt, after my last incident with a fox on...

gotcha - rob, they aint squeaking. yeah, hadnt thought that the sound would be down to the drills. will get some photos up, lookin pretty good ;)

fitted the fastroad drilled discs and pads to my motor on saturday, am still bedding them in (done 200miles since sat:o!). the only slight niggle is that i can hear them when they are applied - not a squeaking, but more of a "ssshhh" sound. it is noticeable, just wondering if this is normal...

...ok V wierd, theres a delete button for the post above, but not for my other two! this threads f**ked!

there aint no delete button for me...i dont mind takin the cred for the motor tho! no, seriously, ITS SOLOWs!!

looks sweet mate, like the shadow at the bottom ;) btw, it mite just be my f**ked coomputer but it says i am the topic starter, and has lost your original post!

how much is that total quartz then? i got magnatec in at the mo, but if you reccomend the total over it i may as well give it a try!

cant get it mate, theres a problem!

so it went lower?i want mine arounsd about that low, what drop is it on? im gonna do it all myself aswell, cant refuse a challenge ;)

Just finished doing my dics/pad conversion from ktec (pics to follow), and have decided my car really needs a slamming, but dont wanna go either too far so its undriveable, or not far enough so theres no real percievable difference. Any pics of motors anyone could put on / link to? Ta.
