  1. last day of voting looks pretty clear cut right now, can knight pull it back from mattys 3 point lead!
  2. thanks guys booked in with a friendly tester tomorrow so should pretty fair with her
  3. looking good pal in my honest opinion i would say to go for a bronze colour on the callipers would go well with the red
  4. i was under the impression that spoon N1 are one of the loudest, have a look into a twin loop can get them on egay relatively cheap these, also have a look at the apexi ws2 both are high flow low noise boxes designed for the track
  5. You have to share the mrs ka too. my mrs has got one to and I hate having to drive that around, it sucks! Yeap and to add to that her clutch is slipping so much it's made a very slow car alot slower haha
  6. you wouldnt say it looked damn good if you saw it in person, but thanks all the same pal also about to go out and run a screw through my wing mirror, sick of the penny falling out when i put my foot down and having to stuff another one in on the go
  7. lol its so dirty i love how pics just dont show how much grease and dust is all over it but yeah glad its done now was fun bouncing on the front calliper to remove the strut without splitting ball joints or dropping the lower wishbone i hope it goes through its MOT too couldnt bear another week of sharing the missus KA
  8. so a week yesterday i started to fit bits to my car i started by stripping the new trailing arm of the parts i didnt need then i went to the car to remove the arm from my car put locking wheel nut key in place cracked the wheel nuts whent to crack the locking wheel nut and *CRUNCH* locking wheel nut key just turned to powder literally so off to a garage to get them out £20 seemed fair as i was in a bind. old arm came of no problem new RTA bush went in no problem which i cannot say for the RTA bush on the passenger side which was a very tight fit. refreshed the brakes and greased them up with pagid cera tec ceramic grease holds upto 1400° apparently speaking of 1400° i would recommend anyone doing this buys a cheap blowtorch would have been lost without it doing the back shocks. fitted new HB cable which im still having problems with my HB not working where i fitted a new one but the calliper isnt stuck cause when i press the pedal the wheel is solid as a rock then i put the HB on and it can be moved if it has more than three clicks on it. heres what the calliper did look like i cleaned it up and got its mechanics running smooth it spent a week like this and after changing the whole arm i think this is the only part that was faulty on the arm ahh well live and learn ey and now back on the road awaiting her 4wheel alignment M.O.T and a good wash
  9. also dont get a big centre section stuck in there TAKE IT OUT
