Nice update Mark. Just be careful with the paint on the rubbers as it can often lead to them splitting. Will be great with the PMS top mounts fitted. Cure your OCD ;)

allcartyres. Brad hasnt been able to fit me in this weekend as he's racing and i'm going to london on sunday night so want it right.

Great read. Thanks Dan

What are the effects of more or less toe?

Soo I'm going for tracking on Saturday. - 2 camber and 10 mins toe out a good idea? Or slightly more tour out? 12 mins?

Thought you got these from proplates mate?

Working again now. Ace video! One you can kind of see going viral but also be worried of going viral

Lovely photos Mark, especially the one of you and your Nan. Also breaking? How much for the spoiler? x

Thanks Steve. The cars come a fair way from the beginning, but I just do things as and when! I have a ktec cup splitter on the way which I'm excited to fit. I've also just put an order in for lots of detailing products as it hasn't been washed in nearly a month :nomouth:

Cheers Mark. Spoke to KTEC and SKF and they recommended packing them properly, so that's what I did :) I might remove a little yet. Engine bay wise, I'm wanting to totally refresh my inlets/fuel guard etc, but that's for the future.

This is gorgeous mate. Glad its finally made it outside :smile:

Not updated this for a while but I have been pretty busy. Started off with some new genuine tie rods and lemforder TRE's as I had a fair bit of movement in them. Thanks @leeds2592 for lending me the tie rod tool which made the job a thousand times easier! 20170916_132959 by Louis Walker, on...

Yeah, i don't understand what that's actually telling me. I'm thinking of just going -2 camber, -.10 total toe out

Going to Bram tomorrow for my alignment doing and i'm getting mixed messages about what sort of settings? I was thinking 2 degrees camber, with 15 mins out total? I've heard 15 mins either side toe, and from others 10 total. I just want to make sure it's all setup right. It's just for fast...

Going for tracking tomorrow and having just got new tyres on my 2118s I'm wanting to run these. However it's not the best time coming into winter! I was just wondering how many people do run winter wheels? I was just going to keep on top of cleaning my alloys and making sure they're sealed...

Dannydc2 and 6two1. I can't stand boosted.

Has this been removed through fear?

On the fitting instructions it says to pack both faces with grease, moly do? Or shall i put something better in there? The bearings are SKF, and self lubricating but if being packed with grease will prolong their life, then so be it. I'll be using a ptfe washer to stop most contamination, but...

I've got ktec ones now mate. Just ordered some SKF bearings, and i'll laser cut out some washers from PTFE at work.

According to KTEC the bearings are SKF GEH20C, with a custom PTFE shim and m20 circlip. It's fairly difficult to find SKF bearings cheaper than ktec supply. Found these -...

I think to a certain extent the black alloys would put a few people off. I focus on them straight away, and it just shouts young owner spray painting his alloys (if you didn't know the story behind the car). It's one of those, but you're not in a rush so i wouldn't worry.

Look so clean with the TPI bolts, hopefully they dont rust like some people see! I know you've coated them though, so fingers crossed :) The cars immaculate as always too!

Strange though, maybe it's sitting on the little protrusion more on one, than on the other. You running the rubber parts too?

Ktec ones? The ktec bearings I pressed out were 20x42x25x16

Best bearings for the KTR Top Mounts? There's the GEG20C mcgill ones (http://www.mcgillmotorsport.com/m20-spherical-plain-bearing-geg20c-teflon-lined-705/) or the SKF GEH20C ones (http://www.mcgillmotorsport.com/skf-m20-spherical-plain-bearing-geh20c-1900/).

I'm running standard 16's with 10mm rear spacers and 20mm fronts at the minute. Hubcentric with studs/nuts and the added bonus of the wheel trims still fitting. I'll grab some pictures but it looks a million times better and I can't really say i've noticed it handle any worse? It's nice to know...

I think Black Gold is so much nicer than Pearl Black. It just seems so much deeper, and polishes up so well. It's a b*****d to keep clean though, but they still look good dirty. IMHO I would look for a car that needs it's belts doing (either knock this off list price, or find a buyer who has...
