one sold,one left

Hi bud I had the roof done at body and tuning in Mansfield ,had a loads of work done on the car spent over 3k now , had full exhaust inc two new cats yesterday too , still not 100% happy with it tho

alignment and links done today and i have to say...massive difference (and no more knocking) will have a better exhaust on in the next week or so

thank you...not used to the name on paper rules yet lol (i understand and respect the reasons though)

I have for sale two lower ball joints,bought as a mechanic told me i needed them but it turned out i needed anti roll bar links... want £20 each delivered,cheers

sounds like a plan on the handling ,lets hope a decent exhaust can make the car sound a bit more interesting too,if not i know RB engines slip in easily enough and im quite fond of RB's (also know them inside out) cheers for all the advise so far guys

perhaps,although i was looking at 888,s,the new R1R's or the AD08 yoko,s,just need to be absolutely certain i want the car before spending another shedload of money on it

40,s on the front and 50,s on the rear,everything has been pulled and tugged and only found the anti roll bar links suspect although there is some knocking on the front end over bumpy roads...also had a small airfield event and found above 120 the front goes light and i get big vibrations...maybe related to the links...hope so

Go and get a decent alignment done: Get them to add plenty of camber to the front, a little less to the back and get the fronts pointing straight ahead (or if you're feeling brave, some toe out). Put some quality rubber on there (Michelins are my preference, but the Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta also gives amazing feedback) and then tell me it's not a car that you want to chuck around. its currently having the alignment and anti roll bar links done...it has bridgestones on at the mo but im not too keen to be honest...and the vredestiens almost put me in the armco at 150 once in my skyline (the black one in the pic (450 bhp)),great grip but very weak sidewalls so gives scary wobble at high speed cornering

yeh had a look on the tube to see if i could get any ideas...seems the standard exhaust is not really all that good..seems to dull the experience to be honest

and my little mighty meriva shopping car (220 bhp in this little beast)

keep wondering what an RB26 would be like in a zed ( i know its been done before too)

dont want to change the direction of the thread but this is what im used to ( a small selection of my old cars)

that sounds epic...

cheers CS will do
