I'm off most of the week so ill get some upto date pics with the rest of my mods soon :D

Thanks :D

How much for the BTB?!

Yep it is, 307 splitter, think it was the mk1 one, circa £35, comes in 2 pieces, nice and flexible and fits 90% perfect!

^ pretty much all they are mate, I want some nice coloured ones though :D

Let me know Luke I fancy a set too :)

Ah s**t, forgot all about this mate! I'll get onto him and see what he says.

Ah no mate, just cant drive to get up there!

Birchdown will be doing mine when I can drive, only people i trust with mine and stupidly well priced even taking into account the 60 mile journey!

^ Debatable in my opinion, the soarer is stupidly rare, and worth a lot to the right person.

The difference you have now between standard and fitting them but not set up, multiply that by around 4.63914 million, and that's how much better it is! Seriously though, worlds apart.

My mate has an AE86, its awesome and is pretty quick (16v one) BUT, the soarer is the ultimate car for amazingness. I reckon after your 200 you'll be annoyed at how 'slow' they are, the Soarer rules!

The car has: H&R's Lightweight 15's Stripped out Rear strut brace (does nothign but for looks) EBC redstuffs KTR braided hoses AP racing fluid Will have Brembo HC Max's after i kill the standards on my first trackday Ktec Decat

Camber was done with a digital protractor, but only because he managed to nick one from work, he normally does it through trig. Pics will be up at some point, car will be finished as of friday so maybe then! Rich - Seems fine apart from a bit of tramlining on the motorway, normal day to day...

It seems a 'simple' job once you know what to do, he talked me through a bit of it, and to be honest the hardest part is setting the box equal around the car, then it's just using Trig to set the angles etc all in. But a lot of garages don't deal with this stuff day to day so I could understand...

Friend of a friend ;) I 'think' most places charge for 3 hours labour to do this job if you fit them yourself, he did it in about 1 hour 20 to have it done completely, using only a jack etc with going up and down to check measurements, on ramps it would probably have been an hour dead.

Finally got my coilovers set up when the lad doing them had some time to spare. He used to work for a Clio cup team, and recently set up and raced an EP3 CTR in the Britcar 24hour and came 6th overall!!! Anyways, equipped ith 2 fishing poles, fishing wire, 4 axle stands, a jack, and some...

Not needed at all you will be fine with them standard mate. If you need any help with fitting, i'm in Derby and happy to lend a hand.

Thought you had signed up Tom! Marby I've seen your car about a bit when I worked down there.

^ Cheers mate. My mpg seems pretty good, going to work and back is a short journey so never goes above 4krpm, and when i get chance it gets a decent hard drive and i get around 32mpg. Interesting stuff though :)

ooooooooooft! Expensive!

And the fronts, looks like more than 1.6mm of tread on them, good for another year I reckon ;)

I can't believe you made Sam park so far away in the Lupo.....should have been pride of place to be honest, much better looking that the Clio's!

My teeth are weaker than my array of adjustable spanners, think I'll invest in a proper spanner set come payday. I have fitted so many clios with suspension etc from springs to coilovers and only used 2 adjustable spanners haha!

never thought of that rich! Good idea!

lol, is it left or right hand drive though, that would influence my decision ;)

^ Thanks mate. Shame I couldn't get the damn thing out, bit annoying buy just the way it goes I suppose. I can't wait until I'm rich, got plans for a double garage to be build with some ramps etc etc, will make jobs like this so much easier!!

^ Hmm interesting. It's booked in on Friday to have my new brake bits fitted, so I'm getting them to do the decat too, saves me having the hassle again to be honest. I only wanted to do it myself so I knew how to do it in the first place, but now I do I'm happy to sit back and watch someone...

Won't get chance. And to be honest I would rather Birchdown did it, I'm traveeling up there anyways so not a big deal. I'm getting my coilovers set up Tomorrow so I'll reallig the cat then and get it to seal properly, although the noise is quite addictive!!

Given in, std cat back on. Emmisions light is on, but comes on and off as it pleases anyways so thats nothing new! it's blowing slightly now too, sounds like i've got a turbo fitted!!
