Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] camber adjustment bolts

I have a set of Ingalls camber bolts for the front of my two as one wheel has about 0 degrees camber and the other is about a degree positive. It looks stupid and must affect the handling!

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] sticking handbrake

exact same thing happened to me this morning ... think the cold caused it to stick on? The handbrake handle had no "tension" just flopped up and down until 5 miles up road when it released!

Re: [All] [Generic] Short Shifter - any good?

Have one of the shift kits above fitted too. Was simple to install, very clear instructions. Good quality bit of kit and looks great in the car! I agree with it being a little more challenging to engage 1st and 2nd and sometimes im unsure if its actually in gear. Feels great when your driving though...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Another 500+ bhp monster on its way...

The new versions of the OS Giken are no where near as heavy as the older ones. I'm running one in my own car now and can't believe just how streetable it is :shock: It's not feather light but then I hate that kind of feel with a clutch as much as I do a really heavy clutch. The OS twin plate is per...
