  1. I think my drivers wheel is slightly turned when the passenger is straight? Yeah I've taken everything apart, cleaned it all up, and put it all back together, so this is the last thing I could think off, unless one of my wheels is buckled? But surely that would have been picked up on balancing?
  2. Hi Fitted a new track rod and got some new wheels, fitted them all then at 70-75mph it started shaking, so got wheels balanced, still shaking. So I'm going to take it for a full geo tomorrow. Should the zed be set up with any toe-in/out at all? Should there be any camber aswell? Cheers
  3. Personally ild be going for an Audi a4 estate, the 03ish shape. Either the 1.8t which can be tuned if desired, or the diesel if wanting to get a few more mpg. ample room. So much safer than a Clio. And can pick them up real easy for under £6k
  4. I had some white centred bbs lm reps on my black Astra once. They looked soo good. So i personally like them!
  5. I bought one from mr zmanalex
  6. Guy died instantly. This is only a few miles away from me, must have been absolutely going some! http://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/news/9882520.Man_dies_in_Bushey_car_crash/?ref=mr
  7. Sell it without the pop charger, to anyone who doesn't know, will think its a chavy mod from Halfords. Remove the fact your selling for an upgrade, instantly makes the car seem inferior to others. The price is good, but if you wanted a proper quick sale, your going to have to knock another £400 off. Your wording for the service history is confusing. Make it simpler. Putting you couldn't be bothered to get the alloys redone shows you don't care about them. Indicates you could have not bothered with other stuff possibly. Get some pictures of every angle, even if it's 20 pictures. Show the alloy scuff. I've seen recently more people doing a short video clip of walking round the car and showing the interior.

    New Pics

    Very nice! I've got a massive wing aswell. Only thing is that your support legs look really close together? Think it would look a lot better spaced out more? But yeah, it looks pretty awesome. Well done!
  9. Hi, As title says I have a set of 17s and a set of 18s - both are lightweight wheels and ATM I'm using the 17s for track and 18s for daily use. As well as the standard 17s in the garage. 17 - oz race superleggera 18 - team dynamic pro race 1 However, Ive seen some 19" bbs lm that I want, and having 3/4 sets of wheels is a bit too much.... So I'll have to sell either the 17s or 18s. Question is, What's better for track use 17s or 18s? I was under the impression you were to go smallest diameter and widest width? I was using the 17s due to cost to replace tyres! Cheers guys.
  10. I looked for a zed specifically with cloth.. More comfortable, holds you better, doesn't burn you on a hot day and isn't freezing cold in winter. Personally, I can't see one plus to leather?

    slip light

    I get this with my daily 18s, slip comes on all the time, but in a way, I like it. It's the cars way of telling me to take it easy. My track 17s will be fine all day, and give me slight back end action coming out of bends before slip comes on.
  12. I have this problem, but I just drive with my legs a bit more bent. I'm 6ft 2/3.
  13. Tbh, I didn't actually read the listing. But for that price, still pretty good. Is the cracked wheel still safe?:/
  14. Anyone? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rota-Gtr-P-45F-18x8-5-5x114-3-Evo-200sx-Rx7-Jdm-Alloys-drift-/320958138519?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Trims_Car_Rims_ET&hash=item4aba988897#ht_500wt_922
  15. Yeah, well its a track car so I expect to throw it into Armco once or twice. And the wheel.... Yeah all my fault. Ayah, I know the spoiler is hated by most. But that's fine!
  16. Ahah yeah! My car has two looks Track day mode : carbon wing, 17" orange wheels, k1 de-bunged if it meets trackday db Normal : no rear wing, black 18" wheels, bunged k1 Yeah, sticker says illest. Just had ones spare one lying around so I stuck it on. At the time I didn't really want to pay £20 for a fair lady badge.
  17. Please excuse the dirt and state of my bumper....
  18. Update Had the rear wing fitted, then went to Mallory park on the 4th, had an awesome day. But just could not get any power coming out the hairpin due to my traction control being on, and my mate in a fiesta st would just pull away every time. in the dry it turned it off and was just sideways coming out every time. Just couldn't do it. Anyways in the afternoon it rained so I sat in the paddock, waited for it to stop then went out. Then it started raining again, then out the hairpin the back end went and I over corrected, spun it and hit the Armco. At first i thought it was a bent wheel but Luckily it was just cosmetic and a bent tie rod. Ordered one from zmanalex and arrived next working day. Fitted and perfect again. Black team dymamics back on for daily wheels. Had a k1 fitted yesterday and my word it's loud!
  19. I've got a uk front plate. Wasn't thinking of selling it but could do...
  20. I've got some. They're the version before the 1.2s. Got some matte black 18s for daily, then orange 17s oz for track. I'll get a pic tomorrow.
  21. I've still got the ones from when I drove through France on my ring trip. I'll use them if I ever need. But tbh, if I've got to check, i probably shouldn't be driving. 2 shandys max.
  22. Hii! Not sure if Im allowed to give good feedback on garages but I feel I should. Just had my Japspeed k1 fitted this morning at Garage D in Watford. All fitted in about an hour, great price and real nice guys in there. The cars in their car parks are so awesome too. Will definentley be using them again! And for the k1..... LOUD NOISES
