    Bilstein B14 coilovers - creaking

    Email sent to David - hopefully I can get it sorted for not much money

    Bilstein B14 coilovers - creaking

    I'll get it jacked up this weekend and have a look - does sound about right though as last time it was up I noticed play in the wheels but it wasn't the wishbone bushes, bottom ball joints or track rods as they've all been replaced. Sounds identical to the issue you had If I get them refurbed I...

    Bilstein B14 coilovers - creaking

    Oh FFS £860 suspension that's seen about 4-6000 miles of road use and the bearings have gone? It's the worst money I've ever spent on my clio - I aint paying to get them refurbed as they've hardly been used I'll be sending an email to Bilstein explaining what I think I had a spax setup...

    Bilstein B14 coilovers - creaking

    There isn't a top bearing as part of the B14's? They have a top spring plate which sits under the standard renault bearing - but on mine I'm running Pure Motorsport top mounts and strut brace. I'm 90% sure that the play isn't in the top mounts It definitely seems to be in the up/down motion -...

    Can't go wrong with digigood - all grey imports from the US, but they give you a year warranty so who gives a feck! lol

    Bilstein B14 coilovers - creaking

    About 6 months ago when my car came back out the garage from winter I noticed occasionally when I braked a creaking noise from under the car. Sounded horrible and I panicked that I might have left some subframe bolts undone from fitting my 182 mani. I checked ALL the bolts and nothing was lose...

    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    Well FCS was "interesting" My 1st session out was red flagged and stopped - so only got a couple of short laps out Then 2nd session on stone cold tyres a lad I know in a saxo comes hooning up through the S before the pit straight - way too fast, goes onto the grass, nearly clips the back end...

    Rear Tow Strap Fitting

    That's a PH1 though - they have a bolt hole already there for the removable tow hook The PH2 172's have one welded to the bottom of the spare wheel well I've asked this loads and no-one knows. I suspect you'd have to make up a bracket and get it all welded on

    Sorry mate - we were short on staff for the 106owners stand, so I had to go over there for a few hours in the afternoon I saw yours :)

    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    Yeah it was mate - but I was in the pits all morning and on track. Then I parked up on the 106owners stand in the afternoon as I had to man the marquee :( I'll be at Cliosport Saturday though :)

    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    Good point - it probably is because they only just clear my door bars and I don't have a cross shape!

    Yeah - that's the way Oreca made the moulds. Works fine though :)

    172 Cup Track/Fast Road car.

    Yeah - I've already had to kick the drivers one a few times to stop the door slamming on me in the wind while trying to climb out lol - they're plenty strong enough and that's what matters really See you sunday mate :)

    CANON Lens Help Please?

    12 months seller warranty means you get a full exchange if it breaks in 12 months Canon warranty means you send it away and wait a few weeks for it to be repaired I've always had next day delivery with digigood lol I did try to say ;) They're a superb company

    Well worth the money James - the quality of them is awesome and they're such a wide angle you can see your steering/feet/driving in them - so I really like sitting and watching them back to see where I could have improved :)

    Why does that matter - it's warranted by digigood UK

    Do a youtube search for go pro 1 and 2 comparison - a guy has done a load of side-by-side footage and the 2 is much sharper and a LOT better at low light levels It also I think allows you to change the angle without changing the resolution. Version does ultra wide in everything except 1080p...

    I don't find this - I've got a 16gb sd card in mine and the battery dies after about an hour and a half. I think that's due to using the LCD backpack to line it all up etc.. But as someone else said you can charge it while you use it. I bought a usb cigarette lighter socket adaptor and a 1m...

    Yeah I was hoping to go over and take some pics but last minute family BBQ happened instead :( I reckon we're going to have to get a load of the CS lot together for a Blyton day - it's quite local and cheap I'll write the guide up when I get back from FCS sometime next week :)

    CANON Lens Help Please?

    That ebay seller - Digigood - are awesome Had 3 lenses and my 7D came from them. They're only cheap because they import the stuff from the US but they put their own warranty on everything I recommend them fully! :)

    CANON Lens Help Please?

    Absolutely no difference mate Canon CLAIM that it has slightly better image quality - but basically it's just a design refresh. They swapped the silver ring for a black one, changed the font, made it look the same as all the current range. They did the same thing with the 18-55 when it went...

    I had the same problem with some of those nuts - long socket on a cordless impact gun got them off

    Oreca Group N exhaust - Worth the buck's?

    It's VERY VERY loud. I bought Harphams and a drive to Anglesey and back left me with ringing ears for 2 days. My car is stripped so I guess it's quieter with interior - but IMO still way too loud Fails a 98db limit which most UK tracks run. So I can only run mine at Anglesey at the moment lol...

    CANON Lens Help Please?

    Kinda skim read - but ermm yah There are massive issues with very long zoom ranges, it compromises image quality. I got an 18-250 when I first started up and looking back at the photos from it they are VERY soft The 55-250IS is a really good lens for the money - you need to try to get past...
