That's why I'm asking Dan as I don't know ;) :tongueout:

On a side note, what tailgate struts do you use with your spoiler?

Good progress mate!! Certainly so different from when you got it. A proper journey!

What ones are needed for the replica spoilers? Unsure if the reps are the same as genuine ones but I do know my spoiler doesn't hit the roof once fully opened. Vaguely remember reading it was a BMW one?

Only on solid top mounts as they are bolted in the turrets. Standard ones are raised and turn with the steering.

Thanks James. I also agree regarding spacers. Check out the previous page ;) @Jimbob 2705 I have a knocking noise from the rear. I know it's not the suspension as it did this with the old shocks, plus these are new. Sounds like something is loose in the boot. Will need to look into that. It...

YK54 VFK.

Thank you mate. It's got a kind of subtle mortorsport look to it, without going ott. Not that I know of Scott. Don't know many owners apart from Jamie the previous owner. @Sesqui89

Thanks Ian :)

Here you go mate :) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111930358224?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Here's how it looks now.

Here buddy. http://m.ebay.co.uk/orderDetails?itemId=111930358224&txnId=1555505446001 This is without nuts mind. I'm probably going to buy different ones so that's why I went for just the studs. These are "BMW" studs but they are the same thread as the 172/182's so all is good. If you message...

Coilovers wound down 4 turns all round so should be perfect now.

Thanks buddy. I just cant help myself. Supossed to be saving for a wedding and mortgage! Ah well. Proof is in the pics about alex @Martin. ;)

Didn't know you was on here too! Car looks so good!

Standard spring rates on these are 325 fronts/ 225 rears.

I'll probably get something like these. http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLOX-BLACK-ALUMINIUM-WHEEL-D1-LUG-NUTS-M12x1-5-HONDA-TOYOTA-MAZDA-FORD-/252501336754?nav=SEARCH Had them on my BG with no issues.

With a capital A and G?! You must really mean it! :tonguewink:

Studs came today! Great service and delivery and i even asked for 2 different sizes and was much cheaper than anywhere else! All high tensile 10.9 grade with allen key ends. Spacers painted Trial fitted them all. Fronts: Rears: The rears "may" be a tad long but the next size...

Good stuff. No I never did buddy, why, have you got one spare?

Thank you wangers! :smile: Thank you. I just can't help but tinker but I still try and make it look good with the things I do too. Old habits die hard I guess. Yeah, I do think you need lows to pull off 15" but tbf it didn't look as bad as I though on the cooksports, but that was probably due...

This is the stuff I currently have. It is big though!

Yes, it's better to leave the cap plugged in. I just cable ties mine underneath the headlight. Also I put a bolt in the end to block it up Still no light either :)

Thanks Rob! I also bought some new studs for the stud conversion. After some thinking, I've gone with 75mm rears and 82mm fronts. This will compensate the front spacers and the studs should sill have plenty of threads and still look the same after the wheels, front and rear. They are high...

Tell me about it Chris! Pretty sure the pads are the same too as well as the battery clamps. Obviously she's living in denial! Tbf I've spent more on mine this month than she has on the micra in 4yrs/35k!

Haha, not sure on that but thank you regardless! :smile: @imprezaworks

Started fitting the coilovers Fronts done so stopped off for coffee and toast! Even Beamish had some! Then onto the rears Touring car style!! Obviously it needed major adjustment! While the rear was up in the air my new genuine center exhaust mount came so i fitted that and...

Im still going!

Fog light wires removed as they are no longer needed I think i'll need to take more out of the front crossmember if i want to add some air feed or an actual duct Decided to relocate the horn and make a bracket so its not directly on the chassis I am going to redo the bracket...
