Re: Japfest club stand 2014

I'm coming from Kent so will leave at 3am... (rude word) my life. So will meet at the Chievely services. What time are you thinking of leaving the services so I know a cut off time as I'm travelling a fair distance. I will be heading up the M26 on to the M25 if you wanted to co-ordinate meeting up?...

Re: [Mk2] [NA] Front suspension looks high after changing shocks and springs

Just give it time mate, one option would to possibly put some added weight in the frunk to assist the sagging process. I put all my tools and jack in the front anyway but an idea for you if you want "some lows"

+1 powerflow exhausts

I had a custom powerflow fitted in St Albans, great exhaust and the sound is amazing over 3500 revs but subtle for cruising :thumleft: Cost me £240 all in for them to fabricate from scratch.

Re: Topping up coolant

It's possible that trapped air is causing the pressure so burp the system to rid the pipes of air.

Post here if it continues to have back pressure and i'll have a think

Re: OZ 35 5 spoke racing alloy refurb

Cheers and yeah already have the decals :thumleft:

AS-1 NANKANGS are only tyres I can afford and the car is never tracked and is a show car so therefore doesn't take a beating with tyres.

What are your views on nankang as everyone I've met with them say they are a great tyre for price?

Now open the coolant cap (make sure car is cool) and fill slowly. Also, s...
