I'm running KTR solid top mounts. I did need to tap down the top hat onto the bilstein as the ID was slightly too small it seemed (or OD on the bilstein).
I could see where washers would sit underneath but i've had no problems up until recently. Everything else is still tight on top unless...
I've had it down to the mounts again and pulled the engine forward before retorquing it all again. It's got solid top mounts with new bilsteins. These were still tight on check.
All new wishbone bushes, had a balljoint either side last year and they still feel fine.
New hubs fitted with new...
Cheers Paul.
Still got a really annoying knock coming from the front end and I have no idea what is is.
On the motorway just now there were a lot of vibrations through the wheel. Need to investigate
Degreased the grill and lightly sanded it back with some wet and dry then gave it a spray with some grey primer.
Then using some hycote satin black it got a further 4 coats then refitted onto the car.
Looks miles better now being full black rather than the grey blue it was before.
Not...
Yeah, so I'm using resistors 100ohm, 274ohm (2 in series to make 274) and 910ohm.
I checked them all before wiring up but will try again. Do I not need to introduce a voltage to the system to read a resistance when the button is pressed?
And not one button works. I'm right in thinking even...
Yeah I know.
More the fact they did it, showed me the readout and it was fine.
Drove the car and it steered badly left.
Took it back, looked fine, did the same thing again.
Just hassle more than anything
Thanks for the pictures mate. The sparco one looks identical. I pulled out that spring clip and cut it short then slid it back inside. Was going to pull it all out completely but decided against it as not sure whether it's connected internally...
Not tried it yet but see no reason why it would...
Not that bad really ;) don't know whether to prime it or not? I only have normal grey primer but just hycote satin black.
Also do I remove all the stickers or just mask them off? Decisions decisions
Gave the car a full service today -
Engine oil,
Gearbox oil,
Oil filter,
Pollen filter,
New washers all round.
Engine oil was black despite only being done around a year ago (about 8k miles) so glad I changed that. Gearbox was still crystal clear but it got changed anyway.
Then gave...
So i've read a number of different things about connecting the horn up and people having problems with burning/melting cables.
I really do not want this to happen. In an older thread someone recommended chopping off the little spring clip on the back of the horn so that it wasn't earthing to...
Had a knocking coming from my front end so I went over all the engine and gearbox mounts and retorqued them and loctited them as I believe it was the manifold banging on the subframe.
I also managed to get this fitted!
I have cruise control bracket to finish wiring up and also some airbag...
