Cheers dude, ye really sorry about the hammer, ill drop it round later this eve dude!
Providing I don't end up in a ditch because of this bump steer lol
Dan you're on cliosport!!??!!??!!??!!??
Formula one? Ill look them up after I've fitted my rod ends, seems easier than going down the a13 lol
And I'm not sure if I have play in the rack, you can move the wheels slightly by hand, but there are no clunks or anything!
cheers for the quote dude.
i may have a go for piece of mind,
but it looks like the kind of thing i lack the patience to do myself lol
if i get 4wheel alignment done from a shop (such as elite)
will the also loosen up the rear beam mounts in order to adjust the rear tracking like in the above...
yes they should fit, (might bt worth measuring your bolt spacing quickly)
yes they work, theyre the same as the "raceland" kit or the "Rokkor" kit,
i suggest you grab a set because they come up for sale, then disappear for a while,
i had them on my old clio,
theyre very good for a set of...
i am seriously swaying toward the idea of wrapping it,
because those pics look stunning!!
i wouldnt be much help wrapping it,
i struggled at fitting a sunstrip!! lol
but would be amazing if you could lend a hand doing it, i dont mind giving you some money for the trouble!
did they use camber correction bolts??
i got some off ebay saying they were by eibach but they seem abit shite!
ill get my rod ends on and ill probs look them up!!
cheers dude
nope wouldnt have been me that said about elite!
where abouts are they,
and what did they do to yours to make it so good?
roundabouts are usually fine,
when actually taking a turn while accelerating from lowish speed its fine,
its more an issue going in a straight line, youll go over a...
oh wow, thats a much better pics, why didnt i use that!!
the camber hasnt really made it worse, it was just as bad before,
ill get the brakes all refurbed (new carriers, discs, pads, fluid are all enroute)
and get the rod ends changed and tracking done
then ill look at getting the geometry...
top mounts are also new!
and oooooo low blow!
and danny its not shockingly low
sorry if its a bad pic, its just to show the height,
i fitted camber correction bolts also and dialed in some camber,
the problem hasnt got any better or any worse.
Ok since buying my valver, it has always had horriffic bump steer!!
going over bumps or uneven roads, the car pull violently in either direction,
happens the least when accelerating and can happen easily when braking.
since buying the car i have replaced,
Shocks
Ball joints
Wishbone bushes...
What would refurbing it entail? And how good would it come up??
I'm more tempted to get it wrapped tbh, if the end result would look nicer!
I'm quite close to kent tbh, how long would you need the bonnet for? And how much is your fees lol?
i found the problem later that evening,
one of the pads had disappeared!
very strange tbh, but ive installed new pads and made sure everything is where its supposed to be down there!
not a big fan tbh,
i like
the wheels,
the stance,
and the seats,
i dislike
the stickers
showcages
lack of headlights
exhaust
making it look like a track car when its got very little go
your friends car in it's entirety
but its your car,
and your clearly not going to be removing the...
ill have a go at polishing it,
but the blemishes look like theyre below the laqure,
looks like its in the resin like its been applied badly!
i dont really want to spend silly money on cosmetics tbh so getting it professionally restored/painted isnt really an option,
there are many more...
can this be done to a valver bonnet??
and before anyone flames me, the bonnet is carbon fibre,
its just gone very very dull (i was offered it at a price i really couldnt refuse)
after feeling how light it is, i really want to use it over my standard bonnet with has to be held on by bonnet...
pics of new mods should be up soon!!
my mate took some lovely ones last night that i need to get off him!!
its not so bad lol, those pads needed doing sooner or later!!
i was there most of the night, went up and down the strip a few times,
but then my car decieded to spit one of the rear pads out so i decieded to go home lol
I was driving tonight and all of a sudden I go to brake and they're incredibly soft, the pedal goes all the way to the floor before I get any braking!
So I pull over to look for leaks and such and see nothing, five minutes pass and my friend tries the pedal, its completely back to normal...
