Coily i was looking at dampers and springs but theres not many drop options for a vr. And i decided it was better with coilovers to have complete control over the height :), hopefully they live up to the reviews i have heard.

Would that be venom motorsport by any chance?? They are very reasonable on price i just bought some weitec gt's off there im waiting for them to arrive as we speak :) Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2

Hi basically my friend has recently aqquired a nugget yellow g60 that he plans on breaking. as i dont yet have hte privelages to post in cars for breaking (i have started monthly donations up) i thought i would post here as a quick feeler to see if anyone would be interested in some parts. its lowered on i believe koni shocks and springs, has some rather tidy wolfrace alloys, the g60 lump my mate wants to sell as a whole the charger has been worked with jabba sport i believe its phase 3. its all early spec and has what i would think are brand new fogs and headlights. when i get my donator privelages i will post in cars for breaking and get some pictures and more information this is more of a feeler atm. Thanks Sam

In no order atall - Shelby gt500 (1967) - Mclaren SLR (for its dirty soundtrack) - Nissan Gtr - Ferrari f40 - Corrado vr6 turbo with 4wd :) - Ariel Atom v8 - lamborghini murcielago lp670-4 sv - Mercedes SL65 AMG Black edition - Bowler Wildcat - and finally for this picture alone an old Mazda Rx3 Red bull touring car [ATTACH=CONFIG]65125[/ATTACH] My list would be endless but i feel this is a good selection :D

Ive been meaning to put this up for a while but i always see a blackberry vr (i think) not far from me, owner lives in hedge end just off turnpike way im wondering if its anyone one on here?? I know from the past you used to own a black valver?
-
Im still in 2 minds it's either cam the rado or buy a new mountain bike :/ i hate difficult decisions
-
Brilliant :). But yeah ill keep you updated, cheers guys
-
:shrug: i dont know what to do, i think im going to see if i can get the rears in 8's suppose they will have to go to a new home
-
Don't get me started on quads dangerous as hell they are. A quick thought i had If i roll my arches would i be able to sort this problem??
-
[ATTACH=CONFIG]62577[/ATTACH] well this is how they looked, i just liked them and couldnt afford or find the wheels i really want :( damn rare zender phase 2 turbos :'(. I may be able to get these wheels in 8 all round though whats peoples opinion on that?? i would be sticking 225's on, i cant see it ruining handling to much or would it?? probably just best to stick with my speedlines and refurb them for a while i guess :|
-
Well i know you obviously can with 2 piece alloys. But it would be to much hassle and expense i think to take a inch out of the wheel
-
Yeah i think that's a matter that needs to be addressed immediately :lol: I agree completely though, modifications need to be safe, but the law needs to be fairly sensible about it. Looks like im going to have to find some new wheels and sell these bad boys on :(
-
Valid point :). But it makes you think how cars like the atom and quadbikes are legall also lorrys have wheels that poke right out. Yeh tbh ide be happier with some lightwieght 8's or 7's i just liked the look of these and i was offered a good deal.
-
Not to start an argument but i have always thought that the whole "could catch a pedestrian" argument is pointless as at the end of the day your wing mirrors hang out further then anything. However im not atall bothered about the poked look i just want to know if these would be legal as i have brought the wheels due to a friend telling me they would fit fine :sly: I just want to know if i should bother getting tyres or just sell them on and by the majority i would say they are not worth the risk. Thanks for the advice guys :)
-
I can't see how it would be unsafe. Im not massively bothered about poke i just like the wheels and hoping they can be installed legally
-
Hi I have seen a recent thread on a guy who was pulled over a tiny amount of poke from his arches. i have done my research and i know the law states that your allowed a 30mm protrusion from the arch aslong as the tyre tread is within the arch. now i have recently purchased a set of 9j wheels with E.T 30. ive tried the wheels on without tyres and there is a small amount of poke out the arch of the car and i may need a little spacing to bring the wheel just past the fuel tank at the rear the problem im facing is how the law stands on this matter, as the rear bumper part of the arch slopes away an leaving obvious amount of poke, is this seen as part of the arch and therefore illegal? heres some pictures. [ATTACH=CONFIG]62517[/ATTACH] arch top view [ATTACH=CONFIG]62521[/ATTACH] Rear view (at a terrible angle so looks worse) Myquestion is mainly about the rear view as clearly due to the bumper sweeping in the wheel pokes out alot more how does the law stand on this? has anyone else had a similar setup?

Im going to firstly say i hate rat look cars, however some of the work in this project is great :) and i shall be keeping my eye on the thread interested to see what else goes on keep up the work lad :)
-
Haha yeah but that leaks only in heavy heavy downpoors and just dampens the headlining a little bit. And the fob says avital i don't know if its aftermarket as ive never read into what corrads came with standard?? Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
-
I thought as much and that would be nothing that could be controlled through main ecu?? Thanks for the good advice btw bud :)
-
Ill be a maybe depending on price and when it all gets sorted by [ close to pay day would be nice ;) ] Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2

Im not sure if its aftermarket it was in when i brought the car howevee i belive it may be. The only reason i dint think its sunroof is because the sunroof does leak under heavy rain due to a slight blockage in the drian, but there was no sign of dampness in the roof lineing when i checked Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
