  1. Seen on wheelers lane in Kings Heath about 7pm today, looked beautiful
  2. Yeah there was a car accident there, had its hazards on. Was just helping out.
  3. Sorted : Took the car down to Ibrar and he checked over the wheels and the tyres seemed to be faulty and difficult to balance even though they were brand new. Go another set of tyres of him and no it's a dream to drive, I still have a tiny bit of of shake but very minimal. Think it might just be me noticing it. Alignment is still out so need to get that sorted now. Thanks guys for all the advice.
  4. Looked stock driving near wheelers lane in kings Heath seen about 10:15pm
  5. I'll take it, pm me a price posted to Birmingham please
  6. Need a rubber strip that goes along the scuttle panel as mine is missing
  7. So today I changed my front wheels back to stock and I got zero vibration in the steering wheel. No shake at all. Before I had done any suspension work I could feel it slightly at about 80mph. But now I feel nothing. The alignment feels a mess and feels like it's all over the place.
  8. Please do keep me updated. They are pretty heavy wheels as well so maybe it's the weight of them.
  9. The reason I went to this place was because they are apparently specialist in 4 wheel alignment. They recently done a fast road setup for a e46 and he said it seems perfect. And due to the fact they use the systems that mount on the alloy rim rather then over the wheel, as my car is lowered I am now thinking of raising it up a tad.
  10. So I rang them and told them that the camber and caster can be adjusted and they said that because I have put a new lower control arm the old one was probably warped to suit the camber. And the new one is straight. With the camber he first said he can't be adjusted then he said with a washer out it still isn't enough. And on top of that I don't think it was tracked with the steering straight. I need to hold the steering about 20 degrees to the right for the car to go straight.
  11. Yes I do understand. Are the supra arms adjustable. I had my tracking done recently and was told the camber and caster is not adjustable. The passenger front wheel needs a bit of camber. I was told the only way to solve this is by getting adjustable arms. Is this correct?
  12. Thanks for the info, I think i will give it a miss. It does seem like a bargain. I'll have to stick with the auto box for a while then. GLWTS
  13. Would this be okay on a tt bpu. And I'm looking to go single soon as I think my turbos are on the way out. I'm not looking for any crazy power, but up to a max of 500bhp. Would the w58 cope with the the torque
  14. UPDATE: So I finally had time to have a clear look at the car and found the passenger side lower control arm ball joint leaking grease as well as the track rod ends and the drop links worn out. I have now changed both side lower control arms and the drop links and the inner and outer track rod ends. The difference it has made is amazing, the steering feels a lot more responsive. Still need to get the geometry set up, wheels balanced properly and also get the fit new brakes.
  15. Still looking, would also have a pre facelift arm
  16. As title lights covered 70k miles Could do with a polish or refurb but still look good Haven't had any condensation Only removed as I upgraded to facelift £80 collected Can also post
  17. Is it one of these pipes you need
  18. Drop me a pm if you decide to sell the bumper
