Hi, Ive had a few cars that were to be blunt right bangers but always tried to keep them looking shiny! I first used to used Mer and bought a whole load o...

Re: zymol

I must admit that I have tried all sorts of polishes etc as I guess most of everyone here has too! But I must say that the Zymol polish is great. It smells nice and has a good effcet on the paintwork. My car is a black one and as everyone knows it is a biatch to keep clean and looking glossy. I use ...

Re: Anti Roll Bar

Nice one! Will PM him and see whats coming in! Having driven my 2 now for some quite far distances on various roads these last few days i have noticed the steering and handling settle down a bit more with the Teins. The Teins were a little firmer, than they are now and the handling and relative stif...

Hi Andy, I measured my Teins Flex this morning and they are at its widest only 8cm! And they dont look as chunky as your cuscos in your photo! I will borrow a camera tomorrow and hopefully the weather holds so I can take a photo for you! I spoke with Patrick after I confirmed that the clearance i ha...

Re: is 3mm enough gap between tyre and strut?? (front wheels)

[like has been pointed out mate, you need more of a clearance than 1mm! if 3mm is not enough for me, then 1mm wont be enough for you? Damn, damn, damn. Its never simple eh?? I will have to definitely take my 2 up to the shop selling the wheels and get them to fit them at the same time, if they dont...

My wheels will fit!

After a brief scare this morning :shock: when I was told my proposed wheels due in the country in the next 5 days wouldnt fit! I measured the teins etc... The tein strut is 8cm wide (at its widest point-being the adjusting rings!) The distance between the tyre and the strut is 10mm. Andy last night ...
