If this is all true, and not a load of troll b****cks - then it can't be that bad, it's done 30k miles since Fred saw it...

Can you remember if your battery light came on to start with? Mine did all sorts when the alternator failed and then ran out of charge, dials all over the place, dash lit up like a christmas tree, etc etc.

This, And this, and check the lower ball joints too. Mine's done this twice to me. Once when a bottom ball joint gave up (that had no play until I removed it), and once when the rack bushes had had it. It's an odd sensation, you turn in, the suspension loads up, and it changes the steering...

I have a pair of c5's - that went wrong after 6 months. Absolutely fantastic service to get them fixed/replaced quickly. Faultless sound, absolutely impeccable. Where will you use them though? I don't think the P7 has much isolation, but I'm not 100%.

For 300 notes, get it done!

1400 doesn't actually sound that bad for the work involved!

I was on damp ring/spa, in an Evo. :smile:

I used RE050 in the wet with 4wd and 350bhp, didn't fill me with much confidence. That was 2007 though, so they might have changed since then.

If it's wet they'll be pap. :down: I've used so many over the years. Direzzas for summer/track, Conti Sp Ct 3 for winter/road.

Pretty sure this went round a few weeks back, it's been falsely sped up.

Actually, fatter spline is at the top! zoom in: Thinking about it, I still have no idea how you've done it. :smile::smile:

I've only had mine off once to fit my OMP boss, from memory there's a fatter spline at the bottom (6 o'clock) that you line up.

Was it pretty tough to slide on? I imagine you've got the wrong spline, but I don't know how you've managed it!

You should try the specialist parts team at ECP, they're the UK distributor for Bilstein (or at least, they used to be.) But tbh, any Bilstein reseller should be able to source you the right parts. VE3-A338 is the P/N you want for front Billys...

Gash, I could do with it being a weekday lol. Is James still knocking about fixing Clios?

O/T but what was MWM's lead time? I need a map too!

Certainly not true on 172s. I've had mine off multiple times, I'm not even running the one the car came with. :smile: Companies like BBA Reman can fix UCHs, look them up. Also, I assume you've checked the basics (fuses and relays) for faults?

400 quid already, they were 99p this morning. 6 days left ffs, do people not understand eBay?

Heat cycles are important too, as are spring rates, damper settings yadda yadda. I'd be buying Direzza's over part worn slicks and 888's.

B14's are surely waayy too soft for slicks?!

Thanks for sharing Mark, great pics in there. I wish they'd do something about that f**king red carpet, it ruins white balance lol. It's been the same for years! The show looks a little less dense compared to previous years..

Nice link Mark, what's the normal price of hot wheels?

Did you give it a static ip at your parents?

f**king hideous. There was a lovely 22B at PHSS in December: phss-goodwood-dec-14-45 by adamlstr, on Flickr 22B will always be the king of Impreza's for me.

For 9, just rotate the 6 180deg. For 0, edit the 8 in Illustrator.

I couldn't get over the dish on the rear wheels, it must be at least 8"! (That's what SHE said.)

Cheers, all!

:up: Yeah, it looked good from the front. Rear looked a little untidy, covered in soot!

No excuse for you Dave, you're only in Pompey ! :)
