    Urgent - Who owns this car now???

    but the crash was meant to happen to day before the car was sold, so the new owner wouldnt have had the car, so doesnt sound like they would be involved, tbh sounds like someones cloned the plates to do a petrol run of some description. either way shouldnt the advert of the car, recipt of...

    Strip or no strip?

    will be quicker, but hard braking will make the rear lock up easier, and lift off oversteer may occur, so it depends how you drive, so long as you only brake hard in straight lines, and keep it planted through the bends, then youll enjoy it, and if it makes you enjoy your car that little bit...

    Bigger wheels bad?

    also, tyres are alot more expensive, and youll put more strain on your drive shafts as the gearing will be slightly out, and not that it matters, but your speedo will be 3% inaccurate with bigger wheels lol id stick with 15, 16s if you like big wheels. 17s are faaar too big imo, car will...

    Quick Question: Changing Sub Boxes

    how small were you thinking?? most subs are designed around a box capacity, go too far below that and it will start effecting the sound quality, should be tighter as said, but not as loud or as low. have you thought of reverse mounting your sub in the new box to eliminate the cone...
