I’m a 100% definite it was the cause as all the vibration has now stopped since replacing the bolt. We did think about cutting it off but in my mind it wouldn’t have been the proper way to fix it.
For those who follow the thread you will know about the broken gearbox bolt I have had for a while. It’s causes a massive vibration through the car when I lift of the throttle after spirited driving.
Last night I went to my mechanic after hours to sort that issue along with an oil & filter...
I know what you mean about the stereo type having a sub an amp brings but I only put one in to give my current speakers that little extra punch. I run the high pass filter so tbh you wouldn’t know I had one unless you looked in the boot.
Finally picked up a 2nd hand sub and amp for the bargain price of £35 having fit the cables last week. It’s nothing to special, a Fli 10” 800w peak sub and a Maystar QXT200 amp which runs at 350w RMS bridged, so it’s got plenty of kick without maxing the sub.

Not much has happened with the car lately but today saw the start of another audio upgrade,

Cheers mate glad I stopped to think about it before just throwing toys out of the pram! Haha
This morning put the standard headlight back in since the nights are drawing in a bit and don’t fancy getting caught out with 1 headlight.
Once that was in I set about giving her a quick bath... Iron...
Well the Recaros are in but it wasn’t without it’s problems... plug and play my arse! Much thanks to @Adamxx for assisting with my wire guessing...
So this morning at half 7 I was full of excitement with the prospect of fitting my seats...
Car was up in the air, battery was disconnected and I...
