the shocks are yellow but have no real indication as too who makes them theres a fair old gap of about 2inch when fronts jacked up between top of spring and top mount,the springs littlerally wobby from side to side with easy and lift up too im guessing its a bodge,ill try sorting u some pictures out as iv never seen anything like this why cant people just do things properly,it causes less head aches all round :brickwall:

right well i think iv binned the idea of a straight through system as making all the bends would be a right bitch i didnt realise untill i had a look underneth before :cuckoo: think iv found a system im gonna buy on ed38 so hopefully alls gonna be well :clap: for half the price of one i got quoted today

thing is iv just jacked my little beast up to check the broken exhaust but wen i did the springs move about in between the shock bottom and top of the tower,theres small bits of wire twisted around tostop them moving around completly now im no inspector morse but does this indicate that the drasticly low ride height is achived by sum doughnut chopping the spings??? or should they move about when u jack the car up and all the weight is off spring :scratch:

cheers just iv got a length of stainless that i got from a old factory,think its about 3" ill av to check but was thinking of puttin a straight through system on with just aback box would it be defening tho?? iv got the same set up on mini n thats load but would the rado be as loud or louder??

i have a g60 but iv heard that your able to fit any size bore u'd like on a turbo as u dont require the exhaust to give u back pressure is this correct?? also if it is does the same apply to a charger?? i was going to fit a straight throught system to my car but does anyone know of the regs on cats as i no there 1991 on but my cars a 1991 so does it need one?or would it be a case of just see if my cars got one and refit if necessery?? also is it true magnex no longer exist as im needin one of there boxes as i hear they give a good raspys/poppy sound

woohoo :clap: thats ok then i tought they were gonna hike it up and make me start paying even more! its a good feeling tho wen i tax the mini and its free! :grin:

haha nice1 well ill look out for the blue tt from now on!!haha cheers cars not too bad but work in progress,blew off a maserati the other day,145 past lanc junc he was nowhere too be seen haha i love it!!! if yur missin yur vr feel free to come av a butchers at the g60 if u like well yeah think its cumberland view down next too wickes,i got it mot'd there but they were going to fix my door handle as i didnt work they said it wouldnt be much ended up being 80quid for a second hand1!!!!!!!!!!!!theifing little gits....never going there again well ill give awsome gti a ring n see wot they say cheers for all the help tho fellas any of u go to the un-phased meets on last thur of the month?? i know adz does and shame to say hes sellin his rado now tho

well im looking at buying some new brakes but confused by everything on the market really iv seen some on fleabay for 69sheets but im guessin these wont last as long as ones that are 149 ebc jobs?will the cheaper ones warp n run out quicker?? any help would be greatly appriciated

cheers :) so do i just take it off n douse it in clutch n parts cleaner fluid n try gettin any crap out of it then? if it still idles high is there anyway that i can turn the idle down like on the throttle body etc or is it running on a pre set settin on the map??

now then chaps im new too the rado scene n not really got much in the way of understanding of how it all works on my g60 but gettin to grips with it i have a 1991 g60 with remap to suit smaller pulley and bbm outlet,boost return delete thing is,when im drivin and change gear the revs dont drop,when i come to a halt at lights it revs up by itself untill i blip the throtle the it idles at 1200rpm whys it idling this fast??should it be doing this?its done it since i bought the car but dont think it should be like this should it? :scratch: also today but every now and then when i put my foot down it splutters and a small pop comes from the zorst but then after a while itll clear n itll be ok or if i switch ignition off then back on its ok usually does this when i first start it up tho any ideas?? :confused4: i remember on my old e30 it kinda did the same and turned out it was idle speed control valve,im guess the rado will have 1 will it? cant afford a garage bill so ill av to try sort it myself mucho gracias

has anyone figured out these new tax regs for emmissions?? :confused4: i know the g60 aint the most ozone friendly and its gonna get more pricey esp for us with not alot of spare dosh to give even more to goverment for supposid road tax wen the roads are more like tracks through a warzone with bombholes everywhere!!! :mad2: :mad2: i wouldnt mind so much if the roads were as smooth as the race tracks then id pay :D ,just come back from france and there all smooth out there so why cant we av the same deal??? :brickwall: anyway as much as i think that the planets warming up got nothing to do with my mini or my rado being abit dirty in the air i guess im just gonna av to be british n take it like a man but............. how much am i gonna av to start payin in tax???????????its allreay 100quid for 6months anyways feel better after my rant but can sum1 please inform me as i looked at the dvla website n still couldnt work it out :help:

well folks my daily driver is my rado,starts 1st time,runs like a treat and i look for any excuse to go out in her :D http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3546/3328407323_82c726361d_b.jpg as this is the garaged baby,pretty much full race spec 1380 1962 morris cooper,handles like nothing else http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3601/3329282712_2e40dd2e64.jpg sorry about these links to my pictures but iv got no idea how i post them on here :cuckoo:

my sunroof aint working :( and summers allmost here iv got light on at the switch but it just wont open all the way is it any easy job to sort?? might it just be the motor? :scratch: theres one on flea bay at the min so thinking of buyin the whole new unit to fit anyone had problems with these before??

hi im got a 1991 rado but dont know a right lot about it and wouldnt mind gettin it checked out by some1 that knows them i got it mot't at the local stealers and i nearly sold the dam thing to fund the bill!!!!!!!! and they still didnt tell me anything i didnnt allready know and they were out of their depth with the car as nobody knew anything about it they said the boost delete pipe was causing allot of idling problems but thats horse :censored: as its been runnig high on idle before i fitted it also they charged me £80 QUID for a replacement door handle if id av know it was that price id av sourced one myself!! iv learnt my lesson now tho and never going back :wave: so can anybody help with and reccomendations about where i could go? i live in lancaster but willing to travel if its gonna be worth it cheers

now then just looking at gettin some new brakes but got a couple of questions any reccomendations when it comes to discs is it worth spending the extra for cross drilled grooved palava??? i know they help to a degree but whats best grooved or drilled? the rotar discs any good seem expensive just for some wavey bits of metal,if its that good why havent they all got that shape? iv been looking at black diamond and wilwood,i can run these with my standard calipers?? pads? been looking at geen stuff but is there a better equivilent?? should i replace all 4 at once or can i just do 1st for now?? cheers
