Im just having a giggle hating bud, each to their own. Only thing i watch the iom tt for is subaru wrecking house round it!
I'll let you off then lol

ah bikes, one wheel drive, fall over, knacker their engines at like 50k miles, require special clothing to ride 'safely' and arent actually that fast unless the weather is good and the road suits it. but still the biker fanboys go on about their superiority, baffling.
Lol, i've never seen so much bollocks in one post! One wheel drive and will still outrun most cars on the road. Engines are well capable of running over 50k. Most commuter bikes have this kinda mileage and maybe more. You'll regularly see Pan Europeans and GS's with 100k on and still going strong. The only legal requirement is a helmet, the others are just optional. As for weather or roads? Take a look at the IOM TT.

As above. Buy a motorbike lol.

Pretty sure one off an N/A will fit

Nah. Looks tacky even on genuine cores.

Its a film, to entertain. Not a documnetary
But with each film they've moved away from what made the film great in the first place. There's dedicated action series for stuff like this. The franchise has forgotten its roots.
I understand where your coming from, but im a little different.
I was watching getaway in stockholm and car chases in ronin for action and entertainment
I guess times have changed, I'm getting old.
Proper driving lol! Cant beat Getaway in stockholm.

Look at it this way, by the time you've bought the coilovers, had them fitted and setup, you're gonna be looking at well over £900. Can you really justify that for a car which has to deal with our potholed roads? And lets be honest, are you really gonna keep faffing round altering the ride height and damping all the time?

If you copy the
tag instead. It shows the pics in the thread.

I've driven my friends Glanza which has BC coilovers. They were on the car when he bought them so he doesn't know which springs they are. The back of his car is stripped so this may have made it seem worse than it was but it felt too stiff. He also has rear OEM strut brace and rear anti roll bar so that would have also contributed to the stiffness. I will add that they were great on good roads with no bumps or pot holes, the terrain feedback is excellent. But I just felt they were too stiff for roads where you have to be civilized...
I'd really like to go out for a ride in a Glanza with MiesterR's to see the difference really but don't personally know anyone else around me.
Starlet_SR, thanks for the input buddy. I know what you mean. I usually drive sensibly but I give it some welly on country roads where there are loads of bends and dips. I was wondering if shocks with lowering springs would suffice or if I should go with coilovers. As Morgey says though, if it's £50 quid within a coilover set up, may aswel go with coilovers ey? I had chopped springs and standard shocks on my mk2 fiesta and then replaced them with SPAX PSX coilovers. The difference was worlds apart!
It's cost me around £420 all in for brand new kyb gas shocks, new kyb top mounts and tein s tech springs. For me it's more than adequate for daily use and throwing round the local back roads. Granted. I've. It got the adjustment that coilovers give. But I know I've got a robust setup that I can now forget about for a good few years.
-
I'm the opposite. As good as coilovers are. I'd not push the stock suspension far enough on the roads to warrant coilovers. Shocks and springs are far more robust for every day use.

I'm sure Zisco have started selling adapter plates that weld onto the rocker. Might be worth looking on their page.
-
You buy the black v lol?
-

I've checked all my bulbs they seem to be fine I have constantly change the fuses Silly question how do I upload pictures please?
Either upload to photobucket/imgurl and link up, or become a paid member and upload directly to site.
-
Have you checked the relay? Sometimes if that sticks it may pop the fuse. Have you also checked the bulbs?
-
As above. Get a set of itb's slapped on.

Go Halfords and buy a 150 piece socket and spanner set. You'll have more than enough in there.
