  1. Only the quattro is allowed to sound like Flipper.
  2. You can jack the car up, put it on axle stands - fit them at the same length as the originals. Easy. Ideally to adjust them, put blocks of wood under the car, when it's on a flat surface, then you can adjust the lengths shorter/longer as required. See this post: http://www.350z-uk.c...riving-me-nuts/ Or just search on google, doesn't matter what car, the principle is the same.
  3. Go to Wheels in Motion, worth the journey.
  4. http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/interior/leather-care/cat_112.html Personally I think Zaino Z9 is possibly the best one there, I don't like shiny leather and this stuff gives an absolutely amazing matte finish exactly like new. Use a nice soft bristle brush to apply it, then a microfibre to wipe away any excess. I'm guessing a kit might have some leather paint/dye in there to go over any cracks, obviously the Z9 isn't for that.
  5. Don't make lightened ones mate, they are CRAP, a decent weighted one is what is good for shifting.
  6. In his one I can hear something like wheel bearings, which are worth checking properly - and I mean on axle stands, wheels and discs off. With yours, I'd just drop it off at a decent Z garage, use a rental for a week whilst they sort it.
  7. Superb looking car, and I'm pretty sure a few lucky mates have names down too Funnily enough my recent favourite cars have been born from the US ! Top of the list is the Viper ACR, once again, two very lucky mates have them coming - I just hope they are willing to let me have a pootle, even in a car park
  8. Remove it, and take a photo, or carry it with you to Halfords/Eurocar parts etc.
  9. Unless I'm misunderstanding you... It's JUST an exhaust gasket Buy one that's the right size (you could even walk into Halfords and get one), and if you want a more durable one contact Torqen, he has beefier than usual.
  10. I think you should name the place that did this, and for everyone else to avoid them !
  11. Absolutely mega wheels there, I just can't stand that exhaust - but that's possibly due to no bum on the car
  12. I'm really enjoying it so far but I don't think I'll be playing it if I am tired or in a bad mood I made the mistake of first jumping in the Peugeot 208 T16 and tried to make a stab at climbing a [wet] Pikes Peak. Not a chance. Couldn't even round the first corner haha. Back to the Mini until I've learned to drive it a bit better. I got the 'Legends Edition' too which is pretty cool. I pretty much did the same in the Quattro Exactly the same conclusion, start at the beginning and work your way up ! Difficult but rewarding.
  13. Liking the new website chaps
  14. When you get a chance, please can you PM regarding the diff please
  15. A 200000000bhp RX7
  16. You can buy a sound meter from ebay/amazon. It'll give you a fairly reasonable approximation. http://www.javelintrackdays.co.uk/trackday/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=5&Itemid=22
  17. Bought and played Dirt Rally (xbox one), absolutely bloody brilliant !!!! Finally a PROPER rally game with decent handling, tracks/stages/cars, amazing sound and nice graphics. Fairly unforgiving, so be patient and get used to it
  18. No offence to the 370 chap though
  19. I hate Autodesk, bane of my working life
  20. Or, depending where you are I used the dealer finder, luckily got one nearby: http://www.michelin.co.uk/tyres/michelin-pilot-super-sport So try that as well.
  21. Definitely take your time George, a gooden will show up (whatever model you want)
