If it had a big wing, yeah potentially the back right as that thing is scrubbing! I have big spacers for the daily wheels and forget the slicks are wider, no exhaust smoke though
Arrived like 9pm on Friday and put the tent up no problem, forgot to put the little on the top though so the first night of heavy rain was horrendous and I curled up on the passenger seat from 5am onwards haha,
But the sun that day was really great and this track is now the favourite of any...
Something i fancied, its literally a loud beep. The old horns from the bumper /bracket but knackered and i fancied something different.
The dixie horn also took up way too much bay space and toyed with the idea of a switch which could flick between both horns but decided against it.
The dixie horn is in the shed at the moment, Not sure if it clogged with water as it stopped working! Using a truck air horn which looks like the trumpet in the engine bay pic
I decided to look around for some new seats. Wanted something a little different.
Found some cheap type r seats and decided to get them reupholstered (rails and upholstering probably matched the price of buying 182 recaros.. but hey lesson learnt)
Under seat sub doesn't fit under these...
Hi all
Decided to make am up to date project thread, don't find myself posting much but looking for some ideas on what to do for the car.
Bought the car 3 or so years ago. Pretty much standard apart from lowered and HIDs. Believe it was on about 93,000 miles.
At the moment the engine bay as a...
Hi all
I've been toying with having new doorcards and a bit bored of the standard ones.
I want to have speakers in there as well.
Has anyone got any examples of race door cards - front and back but with speakers in too?
is the only example I have come across but would like to see one with pull...
Yep 3 blue saxos. The vts had yellow fogs
Also if you mean the roundabouts near green lane that's the one. Second one has a bit of camber if you drive the inside slightly
Bit of a sigh of relief that it's not the gearbox or suspension tbh, do you guys reckon it can be sealed or need replacement due to the amount of oil/grease that's escaped?
How much will it cost too?
I only checked one side of the rubber, I'm unable to fully rotate to look for splits, would that be the correct colour? As splatter shows it was something spinning
On my way home there's been nothing bad, no noises anything.
Near my house are 2 mini roundabouts, went round first fine, went round 2nd and its a tad cambered and made a grinding noise like bottoming out (despite the inch or 2 arch gap..)
I had a look under the car to see if it hit anything or...
Top engine mount has been renewed, it's a vibratech one been moved it's not the engine knocking. (It's got a washer in the belt cover piece too).
It's the creaking when turning, likely to be topmounts, but running out of ideas..
Can springs be potentially a reason for noise? It does make a...
Such a common problem on these cars but I just can't rid of mine.
The noise started with my ktec solid top mounts and I thought they had been damaged on potholes so they have been swapped out for standard top mounts with the washer spacer (just in case)
So it's the usual pulling away makes a...
@leeds2592 It wasn't too bad a job.
I removed the horn from the wheel/wing area and threaded the wiring back up through the engine bay to the front (there is enough length)
Then added new spade connectors to the ends and then it was pretty much plug and play. (I did change the fuse to a...
Tonight I planned to disconnect every wire and the tubing, spray wd40 into the compressor.. Set up the wiring and tubing so it looks neat at least... then try again
'Was'.
Dixie horn has now been replaced with this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150DB-Super-Loud-12V-Single-Trumpet-Air-Horn-Compressor-Truck-Lorry-Boat-Train-/271847239635?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3f4b5bafd3
Dixie horn did work on same setup and that required more power..
Hi I've got an air horn with tubing and air compressor that sits in the car engine bay.
I've not had a chance to give it a proper blast just a couple of beeps (it's very loud and you can't really keep beeping it).
The last time I used it, I then parked up minutes later to the cinema then...
I do have a spare gearstick but was informed today it doesn't look like there was any problem with it. I may swap with my current one though, just in case the bottom part attached to selector arm was bent too.
Is the gearbox side lift up piece boltable or a solid piece
