  10. well had a nightmare....top bolt fell out,holding the brake caliper on so caliper dropped forward rubbin like a bbitch on the wheel making horrendous noise in middle of town today in heavy traffic so after abit of fettling manage to nip other bolt up tight enough for me to keep on goin then stop tighten it up n carry on etc till i got home.. the wheel... couldnt find another with same thred so used a wheel nut in stead with some thread lock,thread locked all the rest too incase any of the others try'd makin a run for it!! hoovered n cleaned car, shortened boost threadded bar on inlet manifold so goes whoosh abit louder,i no some people think it might sound tacky but i love it straightened rear light on boot lid to line up with on rear quater fitted alpine star sticker on rear window fitted new jvc head unit heres pics of suspension i took off brake line had taken a beating from being on its arse,av to fix that
  11. haha yeah SOHCAHTOA i havent heard or used that in years!!! if they'd have told me that it could help u work out negitive camber on a car in school i might av paid more attention!! rather than a ladder lent against a wall...a cars far more interesting! ill remember that then..i'd never have thought of it like that 10points to you for inginuity!
