Hi people, bought this really cool snap-off kit from MikeN, test fitted it and .. well it fits. but it moves the steering wheel a big amount towards the driver. are there like flat boss kits, so it doenst stick out that much?? i will give a drive round like this, maybe it drives better with the snap-off on Anybody can post up there experience with snap-offs, or deepdish steering wheels? etc? Cheers! Kevin

  12. fitted some mesh at the front, the fmic was getting really dirty and was getting lots of little stones against it. i know some of you guys won't like it but it's functional so it's ok, thats what i think anyway ;)

  14. well today was the day, wasn't it Rico? installed: Whiteline adjustable Rear Swaybar Tom's rear strutbar (RARE ) (getting front asap)(no cutting needed) C-pillar bar Cusco front lower arm bar And i removed the MPH converter, so it reads kmh now converter up for sale soon Great day with some nice results handles WAY better now, all the rear suspension upgrades make such a big difference on the handling of the car! ow and it seems i have a 2 inch exhaust ? is 2 inch OEM?
  15. Hi Joz, they look identical to be honest. really busy at the moment so will be friday till i can make some pics.
  16. it does not directly DAMAGE the turbo, but using some common sense you could understand the following> the blades of the turbo spool up to a high speed, this causes friction that is cooled and lubed by the oil. when a turbo has no bov the air compressed air can not escape and will push back against the blades slowing it down very fast and thus putting pressure on the blades, making the chatter noise. This puts extra, unneeded in my opinion, stress on the turbo causing it to wear faster. just my 2 p everybody has the right to run with or without bov.
  17. yeah, what RobSR said, when i switched to TRD shocks i did not tighten the top bolt up propperly it started knocking after a while! i used a airpowered tool to tighten it up and knocking stopped. tightening up manualy will mean that the inner shock tube will turn in circles together with the top bug nut and you can keep turning it forever without result, a airpowered tools works a treat. just my 2 p
  18. nice parts you got there Joz! With all the parts coming in it's all coming together, and once this car is running it is gonna be a truly epic EP that will go down in EP history thats for sure!!
  19. Nah RicoW, in the UK they got the SR as the special edition.
