AAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGHHHHHH.... They are an absolute joke!! They would not budge, even when heat was applied, then when you apply pressure the heads get mangled by the torque bit!? I had to drill out all 4 of them :mad::mad::mad::mad: Which meant I spent 3 hours changing front disc's and pads...

I am really struggling to get a set of front DS2500's at a reasonable price :dapprove: all my usual "contacts" have failed me this time, one of the suppliers quoted me £147 fronts only LOL! I know they can be had from K-tec for a touch over £100 posted... But can we get any better than that?

Finally put the car back together last night.... Well the very few bits that go inside it, seats and belts? (which will shortly be replaced by some Cobra items) Took the car to my friends garage, took the best part of 5hrs to prep the car... I can still smell the faint scent of thinners in my...

Yes its dirty and desperately needs a wash... yes the brake dust in embedded in the body work... and yes its got my friends wheels on.... and yes at the moment it needs a few things doing to it... But I still love it, always manages to bring a smile to your face :D

Saw you shoot past Kings mill hospital around 5:15pm tonight.. I was in a van so you wouldn't of noticed me LOL! Car looked awesome man, Vee's have so much road presence spotted you from a 100 meters away

As above really.. any help mucho appreciated :) For a 172 BTW

Going to be fitting these very soon.. and will more than likely take the trip to Demon Tweeks for set-up with Norm who needs his Veeeee suspension setting up! But who knows of any other places around Derby/Chesterfield way who offer suspension/geo set-ups? :approve:
