johngreen537 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Aint you got rollers at work? You could run them in on rollers? 5 miles of gentle braking on rollers will sort them nicely Braided hoses make as much difference as decent disks / pads!

james Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 savage, haven fun in the snow?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civicturbo79 Posted December 25, 2010 Author Share Posted December 25, 2010 The car is bad in the snow as the rear wheels are so wide (10") I have only used it twice and both time i had to get pushed half way up my road before the car would move under its own steam . But i have now removed the rear wheels a swaped them for the standard 16" wheel with a 215 tyres on and im running them on 22 psi and that as helped out loads . Rich.

stod1990 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Love the car and the work you've done mate. You must be loaded running a Supra! My MR2 Turbo is almost to thirsty for me ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civicturbo79 Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 I wish i was mate , im just a panel beater / mechanic and my brother is a painter so i can do the work on the cars for next to nothing . The supra is not that bad to run ,as my mb6 turbo used the same sort of fuel but it was 380 bhp . Plus i do not use the car every day as i get a lift to work , so i only use it at the weekends ,i only do about 250 miles a month . Rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
