Hate the wheels, lights, tints and you need alot more lows. but thats just my opnion!

Ok well ive got nothing else planned for tonight so ill defo give this a go tonight! Could it be because the wires were snapped when removing my old wheel, and can these parts be replaced easily? Thanks!

Sorry for this, and it could be the most stupid question ever, but what exactly am i spinning? is it the part that the wires come out of? Thanks alot Jenic, reading that really has saved my day! haha EDIT - which way do i spin it, either way? Thanks!

Eating my words now... ABS light is also on now along with the ESP and the usual serv+airbag. is it as simple as turning the wheeel around then stick it back on?

Its the ESP, not the abs mate, but I've just thought about what you said and I think when I have the steering wheel turned to get at the airbag clips, then I put the new wheel on straight, if you know what I mean?

Ok, could you tell me what that looks like and how to check if its fucked or not? Thanks!

What's SAS? :o Thanks!

If the civic bumper wasnt cut away so much then it would look good imo. But that clio... seriously... I DONT BELIEVE IT!!!! (in the voice of that old man..you know who i mean)

Hi all.. Just back in from fitting my new OMP wheel and BOSS. while removed my standard wheel i managed to pull both plugs out of the back of the airbag by mistake. Meh. Wired the horn up and then took the car out a quick drive and when i pulled off, my ESP light flickered then stayed on...

Haha, what a beast! Reminds me of a 106 I seen, with a saxo front end. Just looks odd!

Owned! Anyways.. Ive got a question too, Does a rear strut brace actually do any good at all? i remember reading on here that they dont do anything..

Hahah, I'm not really in the police. Good find mate!

Re: Road/Track 172 Looks like this is going to turn out great, how much did you pay for it?

Who is selling them? I'm a police man, you have to tell me via pm. Its the law. :)

That actually looks very nice, i think its the wheels that really set the car apart from others. Wasnt expecting it to be an estate from the first pictures haha.

Trophy or a very tidy 182 :) No point buying a shagged 197 then having to spend another grand on fixing it!!

I refurbed my f1's myself at a total cost of around 60 quid. few sheets of sand paper and then 2x primer 4x paint and 2x laquer. Sand down - wash&dry - prime - hairdryer it dry - prime again - hairdryer again and so on with each wheel. i should of done 3 or 4 coats of paint though! Then seal...

f**k those things, get some apex springs on it :) Liam.

Did he ask before painting your whole car? or is he just charging the same price? i want mine done! As above, depends if its baked or not, but be very careful not to mark it while its soft, that'd be gutting :(

Thats not your one Crombie :P Probably 2 completely different cars but i seen a RB with black wheels on the back on a pickup with front end damage too... but i seen it up in Elgin, which is the north east of scotland. Would of been about a month ago maybe? I think the one i seen had scabby...

Is there no way to find out who the origional 'Disabled driver' is? be good to get some history about the car, like why its got the wrong engine..

Oh and I wonder what the milage on the engine is, as I doubt its 35k!

Has anyone phoned and asked for some info on the history of the car? :p Number plate is VO54 FFZ for those who haven't looked, which is close to vosa ffs. Suits it!

Painting what Crombie? Hah Ill wait till tomorrow Chris, once we get the 2 cars together :)

No they were not on the car when we changed the brakes, otherwise they would of went back on! Yeah £8 + VAT the guy said. Cheers for the wrong info Danny :P Thanks for the correct info Fred! haha. Yellow_Chris and myself are going to tackle them on saturday morning. Thanks all.

I didn't 'forget' , I just didn't have them! There's some waiting for me in ness motors and I've got new bearings just incase!

Alright thanks Danny, they been on for around 5k miles. Probably best to get some new bearings before I even try it just incase it comes off in parts then isn't it?

Also, is it possible to remove my disk and bearing without damaging the bearing? Thanks

Hi all, Due to having alot of play in my rear disks/wheels im going to try fitting deflector plates/washer things as i dont remember seeing them when my brakes were changed last. Im just wondering if there are any pictures/guides or any info about it? Like.. where the go exactly etc.. Thanks...

Has anyone else tried the Holts tar/grime remover? I think its great stuff!
