So finally getting round to squeezing my own car in tomorrow for some new bits. Td monster radiator. Genuine thermostat. Genuine drivers door hinges due to the current ones having play. Front mount intercooler with new samco joiners. Both handbrake cables as ones seized. -

New monster half rad from tuning developments turned up today, also got a second hand short route fmic the other week aswell. Was ideally wanting a brand new intercooler kit but was really struggling to find one that came with the short route piping. Hopefully will be fitted in the coming weeks when work calms down abit. -
Looking good mate 😎 did you get the relocation kit from TD?
-
Nightmare trying to find one isn't it mate, I had the same issue. I got lucky a few weeks ago on a second hand one from ebay. If your not in a rush for one just be patient as the do pop up second hand.

Got the 4 wheel alignment done today! Great timing as I was just about to send it to the local guys who do alignment when my boss said he was looking into buying 4 wheel alignment so we used my car while we had the machine on demo. Winner winner 😀 -
tuning developments exhaust.
Charlie Thompson replied to Charlie Thompson's topic in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust
I would definitely recommend one, best sounding system I've heard 😎 -
tuning developments exhaust.
Charlie Thompson replied to Charlie Thompson's topic in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust
I was happy with the exhaust that's why I've never said anything, I expected to have to make slight modifications to get it to fit properly with it been a 3" exhaust. Im simply just replying as to how I rectified mine. -
tuning developments exhaust.
Charlie Thompson replied to Charlie Thompson's topic in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust
Yeah I had exactly the same issue and I tried everything to rectify it. In the end I took the exhaust off and heated it up where it was touching then brayed it with a hammer to flatten it so it didn't touch. Fits a treat now plus you cant see where I've had to hit it -

New tyre's came this morning so I quickly banged them on before I did any work. Opted for the rainsport 5s at a bargain price of £30 a tyre 😎 let's hope they arnt ditch finders like the current tyres 😂 -

Finally decided what way to go with suspension and ordered some yellow speed coilovers 😀 after lots of research I've come to the conclusion that these are supposed to be the best for road use as they arnt to stiff for our bumpy english roads and have a good adjustment range. Hopefully fit them Saturday 😎 -
