I suddenly don't feel so welcome on this forum anymore

Its a happy place LOL

Nice wheels there people! By mentioning tyre/wheel sizes and modifications needed,, creates info that people like Roj can benefit from!! Good work troops!

THE DRIVE SHAFTS ARE FITTED AND I HAVE COLLECTED HER!!!!!!! Now that feels better and my steering wheel the H is sitting straighter now LOL He said the old ones did have quite a bit of play in them and he also said a very good thing (unprompted) he said "it's very clean under there mate" oh thats good i replied "yes very clean he said all looks good under there" Well chuffed as i don't get to see that view very often and its nice to know that all well underneath still since last time i saw it (long ago)

Rota circuits 16",,, 195/45/16 lowered 40mm rears rolled rear arches,, but not need for these wheels, perfect fit!

I went back to the original advert pictures of mine, changed a lot already!

Nice pics mate your M is looking so sweet, just think back to the start of this thread where she looked completely different...

Pictures or it never happened.

My friend is a manager of Kwik Fit so I pay everything at £1 above cost. Pretty naughty, but it saves me a small fortune! This is includes a gearbox oil change and a front wheel bearing check. I've been told the calipers are new, not reconditioned units. Not sure where from as they are supplying parts! Discs and pads are Mintex. I'm helping my sister move house monday so I might have to just chuck her stuff on the kerb and whizz off to get the work done

I'll scope the place out on Sunday and let you know what I find

Mine on 16" chronos et45 Tyres: 195/45/16 Suspension: Meister r coil overs -75mm front, -60mm rear no arch rolling but rear camber needs adjusting.

And another

First time I have taken a pic of my car from the top and I think it looks nice from that angle A pic I took as I finished work in morning And a pic my wife made for me

will definitely try it the other way next time

I will get some photos over weekend and get them up.

white alloys looks stunning bro

Yes, same ones, I'm going blue with mine.

I'll see how it goes without rolling then.

Just had the tracking done, it was a mile out no wonder It was twitchy at motorway speeds, they also regassed the aircon aswell. also booked in for its cambelt at the local Honda dealer on the 25th, £210 all in.

Is it the one-eyed purple people eater in your head?

LOL thats not whats running through my head....

Does not wander about as much now...and turning feels so much better through the wheel....

See, leave it a few months for the idea to ferment.

i already told my mrs that this car will be with us from now untill the foreseeable future approx 2 years ago She got many many plans made for her when funds allow so untill that time she will keep getting sorted and improved !!!!!

It's not a hatch either, doesn't matter.

I have not said anything because i have been waiting for you to appear here with your opinion LOL

I was goin sleep at 5 Front off Brew/ fag time No drama let's hope the rears are gonna play nice.

Ha that's what was running through my head too!

Song lyrics just popped into my head then

Woops! Thought I'd try backing the other wrong horse!

Thing is though, you wouldn't put it past him to do that.

They said anytime so I'm going in for 10am since I'm going to be busy training the rest of the day.

If you find them wearing on the inside, camber arms can help with that, not just for making it look like the axle is bent I'd say my original comment was valid about the tyre size, would make a fair bit of difference but even if you had the same size as James you'd still need arch work done, suppose it was always going to be more work than you were wanting to do at the time! But priorities and all that!

There is now

Wrapping a hat?

I'll guess Superleggera Deck looks smart!

Hope these shed some light!

The headlights were a disaster lol. .After all that effort to find out they don't fit .. Well you can always sell them on and get the ones for mb that have already been De chromed.. love all the carbon wrap. . Great job doing it all so quickly. . And love how she looks after the wash and polish. . Shining like a mirror just like you wanted it to be

nice work dude. lurve white wheels. Next time i do a set of wheels, i masking them up like that,,,thats GENIOUS!

I had put the wheel (less tyre) on the car before hand and even that was sticking way out! Dinochips car looks like its not on crazy camber so was impressed when i saw someone else had put those wheels on! Wish it was mine but i was fed up with all the possible arch work etc! Dinochips car is lovely and deserved winner of COTM! More detailed info on wheel fitment/issues would really help others out though......

I must stop looking at this thread, until pictures are confirmed!!

That's a good price for all that work, she'll be running like a dream. As I said before, the water pump is a non-service item, so it only needs changing if it's broken/leaking.

Civic ina field!!

Hook, line and sinker! That's one way to cure the rears! Ruby's done well to last this long but rust be gone!!

just realized I made 200 posts

I work for Western also (albeit Mercedes Benz) that 15% discount is probably better than I would get...and i work for the feckers!

Did not do it as the plan is to change the noisy box and will be getting them then You crazy Madman LOL when i first joined it was in my profile for a couple of weeks till i realized this was going to be my second home and changed it.. Even the establishment know it the nutters They even went through a thing calling me it in posts and me replying saying i did know this fella' The truth being i actually really don't use it unless its a formal letter and i got no choice..I can honestly say i have walked away from a desk (in a bank or similar situation) and the person has forgot something, called out my first name and i really dont look because i really do think they are calling somebody else then i hear Mr Brown and they got my attention..

They look like the right ones for the carpets.

You've bought that set from comedywizard?

Well that's the rest of us fooked.
