    HR bonnet

    Anyone breaking a HR? Don't care about colour or stonechips etc as the car will be getting resprayed eventually. I've seen posts about buying from Nissan but I'm not in an immediate rush so am happy to wait a while for a second hand one.
  3. Oh sweet, I'll have a look and see what I can find.
  4. I'm 35 so a bit passed being a cool kid too To run a static stanced car properly, the suspension work will surpass most track cars. I say high end because I'd of thought most people serious about track driving would have properly set up suspension and this should know about toe rod ends adjustability.... whereas like I said, this particular part is new to me as my previous jap suspension ran dual wishbone All parts are aftermarket and have to be modified, all bushes uprated etc I've had 34kg custom coilovers made in the US which are being shipped over, the contact patch won't be an issue as I will still have more tyre on the road than most standard cars But with still having 4 wheels on the road, camber doesn't make these types of cars dangerous it's the toe because if not set properly the wheels fight each other for direction. And that's when it becomes unstable and dangerous.
  5. I thought there would be more people on here running high end modifications to their suspension, or is this just a coilovers will do kinda place lol I guess I'll just have to wing it, the toe ends look like there constructed with threaded bar so I presume it'll be cool just to alter it and wind it out
  6. Yeah man But to safely run crazy camber you have to get the toe perfect so I'm trying to find put how much adjustment is in the aftermarket or standard toe ends.
  7. Only if 4x4's run -15 degrees of front camber?
  8. Id rather avoid the hub carrier hitting the coilovers this time round
  9. Yes I know.... I have aftermarket upper arms which are being modified to possibly double the amount of negative camber capacity but that won't be enough, so I wish to also push the bottom out by cutting and extending the 2 lower arms. I'm assuming once this is done the tie rod ends won't reach the hub, so I'm asking if uprated/aftermarket ones have more room for adjustment or modification to extend them. I'm not going crazy, probably going to extend the arm that the shock bolts too by about 15mm
  10. I did post this on the Facebook group but got no answers, so hopefully get a bit more luck here copied from facebook Not sure what sort of help I will get here but I have a question about tie rod ends. My previous jap car ran dual wishbone, so I'm in new territory here 🖒 I'm having my upper arms modified to give more negative camber, but on my previous car I had the issue of the hub carrier connecting with the coilovers on cornering. So I'm going to have the two lower arms extended. Now I've not took my wheels off yet as I'm still awaiting my coilovers to come from BC but am I right to assume the tie rod ends may not reach? And it's the tie rod ends which adjust to set the toe and castor, If I buy uprated would there be more adjustability to extend them?
  11. like The cheap insurance The offset possibilities Strong camber game Dislike It sounding like a Honda Plastic fantastic dashboard
  12. Done some investigation work on the weekend and yes, I will be replacing my aircon pump for the alternator. Should be quite straight forward tho as like my previous car the aircon pump has its own bracket with tension wheel. Happy days
  13. There's I think 7 roundabouts to the gym, never really noticed, it just comfortably goes round. But I guess if your on about track use, then no nangkang's probably wouldn't be ideal
  14. Nah this one isn't a showcar, it's the daily cruiser for gym and shop runs etc But genuinely, I only get problems on launch in the wet. Nangkang gets my vote Yeah the SL
  15. Haha I'll admit it felt wrong ordering a 275 tyre for my runaround But still, never had a problem in the wet with them, with rwd and 500bhp
