Sat nav isn't massivly accurate as it doesnt compensate for hills... if your rolling circumference is only 2-3% different it will do just fine off the speedo. Go for a drive, reset both and see how close they are !
Brand new tyres are larger than a set on the wear bars... it's all swings and...
I always used the rear beam. Big fapping strong bit of metal !
Just use some (I won't call it common as it isn't...) sense and you'll be fine ;)
Remember to put it in gear if you're only jacking the back up !
:evil:
Nice touches !
I like all your ideas (apart from the brakes, unless they are actually 'branded', I can't remember) and the wheels. Stick with the (guessing) 17s.. smaller is better ! ;)
Nice to see someone keeping their car relatively standard and staying with the car for so long !
More pics of the other bus needed ! :approve:
Belgian number plates still look odd ;)
Rotating mass has an equivalent of about 5-6x that of non-rotating mass.
If they're 3kg heavier per corner, you're looking at upto 70kg "additional mass" to accelerate. More mass to accelerate = more fuel used.
Not sure on the complexities of larger rolling circumference. I'd have thought...
^ Exactly this !! :approve:
I was giggling to myself over what an annoying bore you must be regarding Evos but I'm exactly the same just on a slightly different ship from Japan :o
I know exactly how you feel .. my last Scoob was my first silly power car, and I'd wanted one (standard or...
Have a look through, steal some exif data for yourself and try again.

I'd up your f number BTW ;) Higher f = tighter trails. Will obviously need to compensate with a longer exposure though.
Just practise...
Try a longer exposure ;) Practice makes perfect. My first ones were wobbly and over/under exposed and just generally awful.
I'm quite a dab hand with the long ones these days :o
Read harder :rasp: it'll be fine, look at the link !
Clear as a bell until 9am with a 1% 20k ft coverage of...
