*yawn* shuttup, they're off the top of my head - though the Cusco ones are right, and the other ones are slightly out (TRD 24mm, Whiteline 22mm or 24mm - Being the Heavy Duty) And they're little details that don't mean anything in isolation, the effect is what matters and is what I'm explaining. Diameter isn't the only way of increasing the stiffness of a roll bar.

I'm pretty sure there's a "Monster" 27mm Whiteline Heavy Dute ARB...their usual offering is what, 24mm? TRD is 22mm, and Cusco do 16mm or 18mm...so I'm pretty sure they offer the 27mm one, though why someone would want to get it is beside me

Geo, not to upstage you but it's balls - an uprated Front Anti-roll bar will make a difference - all people who say "Bigger front anti-roll bars just create more understeer and Rear Anti-Roll Bars give more oversteer" obviously know very little and just regurgitate what everyone always says on the forums. Take off the front Anti-roll bar and drive it, then try again with it on. It just cannot disregarded and stereotyped to such a degree - the balance is in the amount of roll stiffness at the front and rear of the car, and is as a common proverb, too much of something is never a good thing.

mods? But you can't drive for another 3 years yet

cheers me dears - will do, seeing as MSN doesn't work here...goddamn Terrorist Internet not letting me use Messenger for fear of having our location discovered...err...I mean, damn internet....

have you asked if they'll allow for some FPR tuning?

It's a bit of a waste of money Jozzo unless you intend to run over the 4efte's rev limit of 7300rpm....If you are though, do it

It isn't but it fits your bill once you get "everything" sorted out (and I mean the whole caboodle) ;) In that respects - I was supposed to receive "it" today, but no luck, and I'm leaving tomorrow Hopefully I get it before I leave to the airport tomorrow -

Guru? Joz?? Meh - Six speed will fit his bill, but it's too short otherwise - don't get it on a notion of better motorway mileage, otherwise it's perfect for your plans Monsieur "Guru" ;) -
wasn't saying my car was in comparison to the hatchbacks...though they actually are as we have a rear bulkhead and a smaller roof section...anyway. So as I iterated, the suspension turrets only flex in extreme situations, so you would only feel the braces, if at all, in extremis. The "Going fast to have great handling"....eh? A slow circuit isn't really going to tax a car - if anything, it'll tax the tyres chosen, how well a car gets power to the ground, and the agility of a car afforded by it's suspension settings and setup...Circuits that will tax a chassis/suspension are long fast tracks, w

they came out awesome Markikins! Could you send me a link to the photos please or is that all of them there?

Ugh - perhaps the most overestimated estimation - yes, they are helpful and can provide an improvement in the driving dynamics in the vehicle, but beyond that, it'll be very hard to detect the difference. All well and good, a strut brace will help to stiffen a chassis, but the degree of it's extent is probably not even a 10th of a percent of the vehicles overall rigidity (a Rollcage that's been welded in typically achieves an 11% improvement in torsional rigidity of a chassis)...keep this in mind - a Strut brace reduces the movement of the Chassis strut towers. Now step back a second - these

sub-division of Wed Sports apparently

I know, I thought MY car was loud!
-
well the stock BOV plumbs back into the intake, and the fitting I have allows you to keep that function on the car otherwise you'll need to find a way of plugging up the connection
-
are you wanting to keep the recirculating function? If so I have the Adaptor for it! If you have the stick EFI Pipe & TMIC it should be very simple to fit

sorry to say the duvet and pillows have retired for the Winter Mikey, though the back should be clean enough, just a bit cold ;) I seem to have found out the cause of the rattle, though it's resolution will probably be a bit complex - the driver's side axle arm is loose over the Cusco Pillowball bush...hmm... -
Sold honeybuns!! ohh my god!! - can't believe I'm actually considering doing them pink now...Argh! Perhaps do the SSR RS-8's in Pink instead (as I prefer to use those as trackday wheels)...what is a girl guy to do! *faints*

blue and yellow? 5-0? They should be so lucky

Possible Photoshoot? Perhaps on a beach? And some sandy fun...
riko666 replied to riko666's topic in South East Region
That's the issue - i'm hoping it's like Pembrey Sands, hey, if Top Gear can go round and act like "Yoofs", surely driving onto a beach for some photographs would be fine? -
Got bored so I photoshopped my new wheels onto my car...now, I probably will go for a Satin Black center...but my god these have made the decision hard I especially love the gold, but it's too unsubtle/gaudy for me. I would do it for Track wheels, but...bah! Decisions, decisions, decisionsth! Jeesusth Christh

I put across an idea to Mikey the other day...ofcourse it was about photographs so he was interested Either way, I've never had any decent photos of my car, and after seeing a guy taking a picture of his Glanza on a beach in Ireland I got sold. So JAG, Gaz and anyone in the vicinity, what do you think of this? The one place I was thinking of is Camber Sands if you're allowed to drive up onto the beach? Would make for beautiful pictures there with the sand, and it would seem ideal for me - remind me of Saudi Arabia a bit! Though one of my many "missions" includes driving there and back...but

sorry - thought he meant the Ecotek Valves *crawls back under nearest rock*
