Cars are going to be expensive but the more you use your head the cheaper they get.
Simple things like running 15's instead of 16's, £140 for a set of T1R's opposed to ~£250. Plus the wheels being a damn sight cheaper themselves. Using cheapish oil etc all adds up.
The more work you do...
If you drive it without spacers on with coils your going to have major major scrubbage from the shock to the tire. Make sure you've got that clearance!
You mean the front and back are different heights? You should have the adjuster rings on the bottom of the springs that screw up or down to...
Excuse me if I'm out of date as Ive not been that into the stuff for 2/3 years now.
Quite certain the only prevention is abit of luck and good ventilation. :)
If you got a new one it'd prob have the update jasper(or whatever they were) boards and the warranty which is better off IMO.
Worth a try. My guess is it won't get hot enought though.
Just pick up a decent one from B&Q etc. It's an investment after all as with every other tool you buy so. Plus if you ever decorate your own house a heat gun comes in handy removing paint from doors and whole other bunch of stuff. It's...
Pictures never do this car any justice.
I've seen tons of pictures online of EK9's/Jordan's and that lot. But I once saw a white EK up in Accrington. The whole street may as well have been blurry as that thing stood out like George Foreman at a KKK party. Absolutely beautiful it was, can 100%...
Heat up with heat gun/blow torch etc and scrap off. You'll be left with a stain. White spirits and a rag will easily get it off. Sorted.

Paint code will be on the sticker on the door, it'll be something like TED48 etc with a different letter/number combo.
Looks oddessey(sp) blue though to me.
But I am colour blind.
Probably around the same as you, 30/35. I got 28mpg average out of a tank once lol.
Only time I've ever got 45+mpg was a 5 hour trip at 64mph with one stop.
You'll see it sink if you cruise above 3.5k in 5th TBH. Anything below that is sipping territory.

I'd love a set of Schmidt's but it's just £££. You could roll around on a newly powercoated and brand new tired up set of OZ F1's for afew quid over £300 if you play your cards right and get the tires...
Say standard 172 wheels, have a offset of 48.5. The lower you go the further out the wheel is. Every 1mm more outways the lower the number of offset. Plus if you stick like 20mm spacers on that will lower the offset another 20.
That's how I've always known it to be anyways...
Prob took the hub off instead of just pushing it out the way...
Not fussed on 7 miles, just as long as I know it's sorted. I won't leave a car I actually care about with someone I don't trust anyways.
