Rally spec?

I had my tracking sorted at Sheldons on Saturday. Nice guys, were careful with the car, and all done in about 20mins. Now drives true and straight, with the steering wheel centred. £25. They did suggest I get some camber bolts in the future and have it set up again, given I have 2.5deg

Have a word with Birchdown? They arent too far from you, may be able to have a quick look for you for a few quid

Fuel pump perhaps? Loose cam sensor?

Is it only doing it under load? Not just when you rev it at a standstill?

so you've paid them for the work, but they havent fixed the problem?

ITG panel, but remove the actual feed to the box. They breath better without it, and it sounds a bit fruitier too

If they deny to you, may I suggest that you request confirmation of their inspection regime for the area, along with copies of the relevant inspections and repair documents for the road for the 12 months period pre-incident. You are entitled to have sight of these Furthermore, might be worth...

Lee, do you still get yours off Martin?

Does the bottom of the seat not pull out like the trendlines?

so I ask for them to set it to 10 toe out Fred? Will this wear the inside or outside edges?

I've heard even a few degrees camber is fine for wear, as long as the toe is set correctly. Pretty sure mine is set a little toe out, for better turn in, which obviously chomps the tyres Anyone know the best setting for the toe?

True. Will visit them on saturday and have it sorted. Still not sure if the shoulder scrubbage is set up, or my hero driving style though. Hmmm

LOL Just spoke to Nigel lang. They want £40 but use the hunter stuff. As it's fixed beam on the rear, they only adjust the tracking at the front. Dave Sheldons only want £25, but said it's and easy job and will only take 30mins or so. I think I want to leave my camber as it is (fixed on the...

Had my car tracked up at kwik-sh1t after putting some Koni shocks on a while back. It was on standard springs at the time, but due to the camber on the shocks, it was AWFUL and toeing right in. They seemed to sort it out. I then put some 40mm springs on. I was going to give it a week to settle...

My lever has developed a little "sloppiness" of later. Yanoo, do I need to order a stiff base kit AND a brass bush?

Split and paint them? ;)

Re: Pics inside - New wheels on (sort of) - Now to become a sheep or chase the hero s ewwwwww. F1's for Phs1 only. They look wrong on 182's. Like you've gone for the cheap option on tyres

Get a decent Tom Tom, hard wire it in, and use the sat nave dash top for OEM looks?

Black xenons and cup spoiler required Lose the nose ring prefect LY

I think they refer to it as a "knocking stick", but yeah, seems to work fine for mine

Or just take it to NWP and let them do the timing? LOL

Awaits the "oooohh, but youre timing is out, this will f**k your engine"

boy done good

I am shocked to see that people think the 106 gives better steering feedback. The only feedback I got was from the seat of my pants as the back end started to slide. Mine felt totally numb compared to the 172.

Christ, now you're asking, lol. Think it was 2004, because I had it after my cossie, but before my Mk1 Clio Sold it to some scouse lad
