  3. Running an interior lol, the only thing scary bout my interior was the s*it stain you left on it Anyway nuff of the b*tching, you coming to AGM?
  4. NIIICCEEEE! Looking crisp, nice choice of wheels, much better than your previous novaesqe wheels! How much you lowered it by?
  5. I would personally get a Tdi (150)engine fitted into a rado if economy was a problem. I wouldn't say modern cars are more reliable, MK4 have had a number of recalls and niggly electrical problems and they have to be plugged in to diagnostic for most electrical sensors. How about a Nissan Sx touring, made up to year 2000 and well equipped too.

  7. Furkhs im on the case.......of course someone not mentioning any names could have sorted me out some flat caps, but never mind off to supergolfs i go.
  8. Wide rims for the wide boys!
  9. Having worked in a Mercedes dealership and driven a few a classes, i never liked them at all, the quality was inferior we used to always get problems with electrics and they expensive to maintain for a car of that class. Kev the amount of warranty work done on leaking seals on the latest SLs i can understand that they share same materials as the A class :) General thought, they are not built as well as they were used to.
  10. Dont think its the car, could be your bones, teeth get yourself checked out mate!
  11. my car Mines on too, clicky click!
  12. yes, i'll put them up in due course
  13. I have thought about it but prefer the wide arse look!
  14. Got 2 words for Furki.........BLING BLING!!!
  15. AFAIK, please correct me if i am wrong Arch Rolling, is folding the lip/flap of the furthest part of the wheelarch back on the panel, this is done by using a hammer and dolly. It also maintains the strength in the panel. Imagine a cereal box if the top flap is cut off, the side panel would have less strength than if the flap was pushed back inside. Arch Flaring is quite a generic term, the proper way to do it is how PhatVr6 has done welding another arch to extend to completely. The cheaper option is to use a tool which puts tension on the arch and push it out whilst its being moved from one side to another. Now imagine the cereal box with the flap pushed in because of the greater strength of the panel it may distort if its shape is being changed. I've never seen the flaring tool in action, but from what i understand the tensioner bit rest on the lip of the arch.
  16. Pinks where are located, we could recommend someone to have a look at it, who knows the car rather than kwik fix.
  17. From what i've been told no.....which suprised me a little as i thought the fronts would give the most problems.
  18. Ask them which dodgy credit card they want to pay with ;)?
  19. Koni coilovers and borbets a's 16/9 215/40/16 rear 16/7.5 front 205 40 16
  20. Mine is a 1991 H reg, and im sure Darrens was an ealry too. As i mention before i wouldn't recommend rolling the arch because mine were rolled and the rubbing still occured. The arch couldnt be pulled out further becuase of this, i was told that the panel has too much strength in it and will become out of shape if it is pulled out. Just to clarify what i understand by rolling the arch is fold back the metal flap so it gives a few mm of clearance. I did see Darrens car and its true that his didnt seemed like it was rubbing at all, but that method never worked for me.
  21. Right i never seemed to get a straight answer on this post so heres the solution. 1. The tyres have to be 205 no greater. 2. DO NOT ROLL THE ARCHES, reason is i had mine done by extreme and it didnt eliminate the problem, if they catch anywhere its at the front of the arch more than at the top. Get them flared by using a wheelarch flaring tool and then if need be trim part of the lip, if the arch has been rolled previously then it is more difficult to flare in the future as i have experienced! 3. Not that important but helps to fit extended bump stops some of the suspension travel is lost , but on coilovers there isnt that much travel for the difference to be felt. Hope to help and good luck!
  22. Thats Ironic Bally, if you were there 24 hours eariler you would've seen my motor in the macdonalds car park, i saw the storm too, think thats their local cruise strip or driving circuit!
