I'm from Maidstone, Hollingbourne to be specific, quite a few of us it seems.

thanks guys, i ended up learning the hard way haha, just got back from amd essex and im £180 down after fitting 3degrees worth of shims and no better off lol, oh well you live and learn, they recommended 15mm so im gonna go with those, anyone wanna buy some 30mm FK hubcentric spacers, barely...

anyone up for a meet? get a few pics?

well that answered none of my questions?

Apologies if i come across a bit dumb with this but i could do with some help please, I have recently fitted 30mm spacers on the rear which in hindsight i probably should have gone with 20mm, my wheels are now scrubbing on bumps and dips in the road and when i have passengers, how much...

Some dosey cow was well over the center line coming the other way and clipped my wing mirror last week, completely shattered it so I'm looking to replace it, i want to change both mirrors to aftermarket as i don't really like the look of the standard ones anyway. Not bothered about them being...

strange 'woooring' sound coming from wheels, definitely not coming from the engine because still happens when in neutral, faster i go the louder it gets, sounds like the kinda noise you'd expect from an electric car lol, just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what it could be or has come...

Hi all I'm currently running vmaxx coilovers on my 172, all was well and good when i had 195 45 r16's on but i now have 40's and this has created a bit more of an arch gap, i want to go lower but the only thing stopping me is how low the exhaust hangs, ive got ktec recessed supersports exhaust...

Re: Essex meet 27/04/13 looking forward to coming along, what times and places is everyone meeting exactly? :)

Re: Essex meet 27/04/13 i'd definatly like to come along, never been to a meet having only had my 172 for about 6 months or so, i wont know any of ya but never mind! :)

Yeah man i'd definitely be up for a meet at lakeside, where can i find details of it? ive hardly used this forum and dont know too much about it just yet? :)

black 182 coming off j8 of the m20 i was behind you in a red 172 (brown cos i havnt cleaned it for ages), was tailing you for a little while then had to slow down and turn off, you carried on along the ashford road??? :)

Just ordered vmaxx, what the best ride height setting in you opinion?

want it for de badging and bumper smoothing also looking for a place to get some custom work done for boot opening/closing, happy to travel 30 miles or so from the maidstone area

Really need some help deciding between vmaxx coilovers or k-tec, both are good value for money, i know the vmaxx drop lower than the k-tec but rerealisticly im not gonna be running it on the lowest settings. would really appreciate some opinions on the situaton to help me decide, thanks
