    Apex... Are they that bad??

    Why didn't you buy Wick's set you r****d? Apex aren't as bad as everyone makes out, but they do accentuate problems with shocks I've found. Eibachs are by far better quality. Don't be so tight.

    How can I remove this locking nut.

    You got a socket set? It looks to me like you'd get a socket in there. You need a decent club hammer though, it really does need whacking. If you were local I'd have a damn good go at it (I haven't failed to get one off yet)

    Has it got a spinning sleeve then?

    Squeaky "L" Shape Door plastic thingamajig!

    Yep just pulls off. Foam pads, double sided foam tape or cotton wool fix it.

    BIGASH/FF-Racing X85 Clio Cup Racer Project

    Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Re-wrapped? AND brand new wheels? You really do have no budget with this do you? Why is it being re-done anyway?

    How can I remove this locking nut.

    Smash a socket onto it. Why can't you do that if it's round? Find one that really very nearly fits, smash away until it does, if it slips, go one size down and repeat.

    steps to refurbing alloys?

    There's some good guides in the guides section, have a search. The best being the one on the Saxo wheels IMO.

    I've plated my nuts!

    Looks proper mint. Mental, but mint. I bet Dawn is literally damp at the sight of this.

    Escort Cosworth Protection Detail...

    Awesome car, but not the wheels.. :( Haircut, you finally look male (bar the highlights ;) ) You've done a top job on that though kev, I'd love to have you skills with making a car look mint.

    Lots of steering wheel vibration after fitting wheels spacers

    You should know iirc? ;) Anyway, OP - it's possible the spacer isn't sitting flush on the hub, it's also possible that your tracking is off or a wheel needs balancing and that's been accentuated by fitting the spacers (unlikely, but possible) It's also possible you knocked off a wheel...

    assuming money was no object.....

    Honestly, about 0.5 hp if you're lucky.

    MX5 Number 2.

    Good to see you're still soldiering on! Will all those marks around the holes come off the bootlid or is that as good as it gets??? Also, are they just packing tape marks on the wing?? Stick some halfords gromets in the holes, sorted.

    juddering from 2.5 - 4k - feels as if something loose undeneath..?

    Sounds like engine mounts to me. Any obvious visual signs?

    My VX220 Turbo

    One in that colour passed me and Ant on the way to the burpspeed track day driving like a nutter. It looked really really good.

    No Power

    Shouldn't he be able to diagnose lambda issues just by unplugging them one at a time or swapping them over etc?

    engine mounts uprated or OEM?

    The power flex involves pushing the old bushes out of your existing mount and putting harder bushes in. IMO not really worth it in a 1.2 etc, but it can't hurt. The harder rubber does cause increased vibrations some times but it does give a tighter feel to the gearbox, especially when...

    exhaust mount tools

    13mm socket and that hammer should do it nicely.

    I'm going with possible o2 sesnor and crank sensor related for the cutting out.

    Depending upon what way they're out, it may be cheaper just to have the shock hole machined at a local metalwork place.

    Introducing the little rascal (106 GTi)

    You bought a seat? So you're getting rid of the 106??? You said insuring two cars was a joke.... (I'm well lost)

    I am GENUINELY Stumped :(

    You properly worry me. I genuinely think you should consider stopping working on your car yourself and start taking it to professionals. The bolts you have are a 60 degree taper, are the wheels the same? 28mm thread does not seem very long, how far through the back of the wheel do they go...

    Mk1 Golf in brief so far

    No tuck needed. Seriously one of my (if not actual) favourite cars on here. It's just so damn nice. How does it go? Any good to drive?
