Have you driven it with the new springs? They may need to settle.

Well track rod end is on, ball joint is the f**kin wrong size. Typical of euro car parts! Just been out for a quick drive with the eibachs and im quite surprised how comfy and smooth they feel over bumps________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Got round to dropping the rear end today. Looks a little low but got a few bits and bobs in the back to go in the garage tomorrow what will lift it back up a touch and got some new springs to go on the front to replace the eibachs thats on at the minute.   ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Well thought i would trail fit my driver side bucket seat. The seat is nice and low but too far over to the right as it doesnt sit in front off the steering wheel. Its not far off but may have to drill new holes. I have used omp base mounts for a change instead of welding rails in for when i decide i want the standard seats back in.  ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

No idea mate. Car has been running well, never missed a beat then last night on my way home all of a sudden got a massive clunk clunk bang and loads of smoke and cut out! Pulled over and the rod has smashed the oil filter off and rod is hanging through the block. Gave no signs at all just decided there and then it wanted to end its life  ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |
