Wheel refurb - south coast/home counties area
Dox replied to scarlet_vr6's topic in Group Buy Feelers
Just talking generally about powder coating wheels, if you don't get them clear coated over the silver and you use wheel cleaner or solvents the silver alloy flakes in the powder coat will tarnish and go dull. -
Do you have equal amounts of lock left and right from centre? Turn to the left put a bit of masking tape on the steering wheel at 12 oclock with L on it. Turn to the right and do the same with an R on the tape. Back to the centre, have you got too much lock one side?

Any signs of the tyre catching on anything? Wishbone bushes ok? Find yourself an empty car park and drive on full lock until it knocks, then take a small amount of lock off - does it still knock?
-
Is the noise on full lock and moving forward or when stationary going lock to lock?

My autel 509? wont connect to the corrado either, it does all my newer vag stuff

I've got the complete setup, pump, pipework, rack reservoir, U/J and column, but can't guarantee any of it because I've not used it myself, but I'd rather sell it complete.

Arrived today, thank you:)

Gets my vote too, 1/4 litre for cleaning and another 1/4 for a rinse = 70p

If the slave has failed hydraulically it will leak fluid externally (on the floor?)
-
Whats wrong with the clutch? If its hydraulic failure the master will allow fluid to return to the reservoir (the clutch won't clear the flywheel), the slave will leak fluid onto the floor. I presume you've tried bleeding it?

I saw a mini 850 rebuilt as a 998 cooper last year at auction sell for £27k

You should do what you like with it. If you regard it as a future investment then I'd don't stray too far from factory spec or do anything that can't be reversed easily and don't sell off standard parts if you do mod it. Period mods won't put off a purist, but Halfords wheels will. Before and after pics of work done will help when you come to sell it so a build thread is a good idea. Enjoy the car while you still can:)
-
Any pics?
-
Agreed
-
Very nice, so is that worth £15K?
-
Anyone else here have a factory stock g60?

Bigger bars make the car less predictable in the wet - they let go all of a sudden when cornering hard - you don't get the weight transfer to the outside wheel that you get with softer bars. If you hit a pot hole on one wheel only then the bar acts as an additional spring - you're twisting the bar rather than the bar swinging up or down should both wheels hit a speed ramp, trench or expansion gap on a motorway bridge etc Does anyone have eibach springs fitted?

I'd like the speedo centre caps and belt tensioner bearing posted please
-
I'm sure it had pics and a lower price tag previously? If you "End listing" too often because its sold "Elsewhere" ebay charge you the full fee anyway, I've doubled the price of items myself to ensure the item remains unsold. This seller could be doing the same?

If you look on eurocarparts site it give disk specs if you click on "Part Details" I thought it was fiat coupe 20v NON turbo 284mm disks used in conjunction with 288mm callipers?
