I paid for it on the 1st December by paypal expecting that it would be delivered during my Christmas leave but unfortunately it took more than 5 weeks and so I was back at work by the time it arrived hence being unable to check it. Yeah I do think the packaging is a bit crap but lesson learned I gue...

Hi there, I ordered a front lip back in December. The lip wasn't delivered until January and the first time I seen it was early February. My father signed for it and just placed it on my bed until I was home. It's still wrapped, i haven't even bothered to remove the bubble wrap as I can see through ...

Check the dates on the threads, It's not hard to see that this thread was posted before that thread when I discovered the missing nut...

This should probably be deleted now though!

Advan RS test fit for a joke 18x10 +25 with 285/35/18

On the US oc a lot of the owners just drain their powersteering fluid and remove the pump. Using a bung on the bolt. A few have been running the rack dry for years apparently with no problems. You get the quickness of a PS rack with the feel of a non PS rack at the expense of burning a few extra cal...

Well people can work out where I had the work done, I actually posted a trader feedback thread about the work being done and that I was really happy. Obviously that was before I noticed this. I'll give the guy a ring after christmas. I was about to have it recovered to GTSChris as that's where I bou...

I'm not sure if I want to name the garage, everyone makes mistakes and I don't really want to damage someones livelyhood in these times for a mistake. I'll give them a call and see what they say. I'd say the nuts were never even put on though. I've only made 2 journeys since the work was done. The f...

Right well I've had a look at this now and there's an easy explanation for the camber and the car feeling funny. Here's a video of the car jacked up with me rocking the wheel, it pulled out to correct camber as soon as it was jacked up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-I9aOX_7_Pw The bottom bolt is c...

Yep I'm guessing the bottom bolt is still there, but the nut on the other hand...

I'll report back in the morning when I've checked.

I haven't checked the lower bolt yet as it's dark and snowy outside, I'll jack the car up tomorrow and torque the trailing arm, balljoint and what remains of the strut bolts. I have 2 camber bolts I bought a while back so it's the ideal time to fit those in the top positions either side. Scares me t...

Hi, Ok well a couple of months ago my car started making a clanging noise at low speeds and a sort of warble at high speeds it would come and go. After a bit of research on the net it was pinned down to a dodgy CV joint. I don't use my car much to be honest so a couple of weeks later I booked it in ...

Top bloke at this garage, my car was making a crazy clanging noise and it started shaking the whole back end. Got my car sorted with a new driveshaft, sorted my tension rod bracket out and I swear he's also tightened my alternator belt as it hasn't sqeaked since :) He also stayed late so I could pic...

I think OMP/Sparco/Momo are the same, Nardi/Personal are different

Do the BCs use shorter front droplinks? If so are they included in the kit?

Cheers

I hear this every winter and in all my years existence have still never seen or experienced this occuring despite my whole family doing it on all our cars in winter.

I run mine daily including some 200mile+ trips in heavy snow. Not had any scares at all it's better than putting the power down in snow than my old prelude that's for sure. I get the sticky doors but I Just pour some warm water around the frame. Sometimes my locks are frozen but I just heat my key u...

Does the 255 affect the speedo much,get any tyre rub on the arches?

Paul

The speedo under reads 1-2mph until you get to about 90mph that is when compared to a tomtom GPS.

It did rub until I had my rear arches rolled

Same specs as above but 255 tyres on the rear.

Do you know what is most likely to fail? Is it likely to be the cv joints or something else on the driveshafts?

I'm gonna get a recording tonight on my phone to help diagnosis.

I need some help guys as this is my daily drive. I was cruising at 70 a few days ago while on a 220mile trip and started to notice a faint clicking noise behind me. Now over the past 2 days it's got louder and louder and can be heard quite easily from outside the car. It's sort of like a loud tap or...
