Not sure exactly where the place is, I arranged to meet him at Reebok . The wheels arent knackered but have a bit of damage on the front off side. Just fancied having them sprayed anthracite as I think they look nice when covered in brake dust!

I know we have been here b4 but Powerflow in Burnley seem to be good (not saying that every branch is good, or that they use the highest quality ss). Had exhausts from them on my last 3 cars and have never had any problems with any of them. Plus you might even get a brew at my house! lol...
I found a place in Bolton (Im from Blackburn) called Ace Alloys. Met the owner the other week. Really sound bloke called Mark Power.(No he doesnt have a brother called Max!) Getting the front wheels refurbed and the 4 coloured Anthracite for £40 a wheel. He said hell come to my works, as long as...
Mine did a weird noise on heavy acceleration in 1st,2nd and sometimes in 3rd. I took it in and told them what I probably was and they couldnt find any probs. Took it back a few weeks later and, surprisingly they replaced the engine mount and the gearbox bushes and it is now perfect!...Nobs!

Not much until 3rd and 4th m8. 4th is a real killer gear now...pulls really well from 80-125 now and usually the race is over buy then. (mind u thats not just with the r-sport)
Y0z has just fitted his and he is well impressed with the difference.
