Clear side repeaters also installed.. After the alloys were added the car was looking like a monster truck! wanted to get rid of that arch gap so i got a set of coilovers from a member on civiclife. I then went a specalist tracking place my front/rear camber and toe was completly messed up i didnt know any thing about camber at this point i was advised an adjustable camber kit for front and rear to sort any future issues with tyre wear etc.. Below is the print out of the tracking out of place.. I then invested into a D2 camber kit front and rear had them fitted .. Went back to the tracking place and had them adjusted accordingly This was the result.. As you can see there is a big difference from before / after camber and toe got adjusted correctly.. However i was still -1 degree out on the front which caused minor inner tyre wear still.. After having my MOT passed there was an advisory of exhaust leak .. Now i had an excuse to get an exhaust system also my center mid pipe was scraping on speed bumps .. So i went ahead with a full custom exhaust system with lifetime warrenty Video of exhaust: http://vid34.photobucket.com/albums/d145/jdmsaq/IMG_0597_zpsbbf3b967.mp4 I repainted my wiper arms along and de - wipered the rear Got bored of the stock gear knob so i upgraded to a gold one then i ordered a quick shift along side a poly bush kit from energy suspension shifts are way better now i would definatly reccomend this My next upgrade was the HID kit which is 6000k Removed mud guards, colour coded my center caps added NEO chrome lug nuts My next upgrade was the sound system the following items were ordered; Pioneer DEH-X9500BT, FLI active sub 10" 250RMS, 3 way Fli front door speakers 16.5cm 70RMS each, Vauxhall Astra front door speaker adaptors, 3 way Fli 13cm rear speakers 60RMS each, Fli FU360 360 watt 2 channel amp to power 3 way Infinity's on rear parcel shelf which are 100RMS each. Also iv hooked up a 500GB hard drive in the glove box and also theres an additional USB in there too, oh parrot bluetooth including mic is wired up too Was not happy with the wiring in the boot everything was going all over the place whist driving.. So i spent a bit more time on trying to hide the additional amp and do a wire tuck.. Best location was mounting it on the rear of the sub box.. Anyway this was the result when i was finished Iv recently raised the car as i was getting tyre issues and chasis damage.. I got the tracking done recently and its all setup perfect now i get a very minor inner tyre wear which is 0.5 degree .. Guess i can live with that lol Now for some photo whoring ..
  14. Right for your rears the actual size is 5.25" or 13cm. I am currently running these on the rear and they fit straight in with no additional modification required: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FLI-FI5-5-25-13cm-3-way-Car-Coaxial-Door-Shelf-Dash-Speakers-360W-Pair-/371143781476?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item5669e4ac64 Addionally, for the front i am also running fli speakers with Astra ring adaptors which allows me to run 16.5cm 3 way fli speakers. Hope this helps
  15. Issue sorted it was the tyres! iv put my 14" stock alloys back on they are all four same tyres with 8mm thread all around i have no issues now. Thanks for your help guys
  16. Excuse me? "explaining too much" I'd much rather fully explain the problem and get a correct answer from someone on here. Rear tyres are different tyres as mention above. They are different brand one has 8mm thread other one about 5-6mm.
  17. NOTE: Thread title should have been "car pulling left" I'm currently having an issue with my steering iv raised my car up and went to a propper tracking place iv got it aligned up and my front and rear camber adjusted accordingly, however when i keep my steering dead straight on a straight road car pulls left if i move my steering slightly right then it goes straight at high speeds you have to keep the steering more to right for the car to go in straight line.. My front two tyres are the same, tyre pressure is also good.. Rear tyres are different ones.
  18. Nice transformations here.. looking good dude
