Most of the day i have been on helping jake strip the 205 but managed to find myself a bit time to get my bonnet catches fitted and get a few pics. No time to wash the car tho. Best crack on now and get some presents wrapped Anyway, here are some pics       By the time we had finished with jakes car it was cold, dark and wet!    ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Yes i have had them out. Its p**sin down here so not had a chance to see what they can do but they seem fine and yes there is plenty of noise from them, the rear pass side catches the arch but will be fine once i get my other axle built up and the car stripped out what will bring the back end up a little. ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

i ran them for couple of months, noise didn't bother me after a while, but as i'm currently using my 6ixas a daily runner, the 'tram lining' annoyed the f**k out of me...they do however give you confidence when your nailing it, on a dry road of course! |

Thanks mate. Been down to a log cabin in york for a few days and on my way there i was about 5mile away and my clutch cable snapped! So had to bodge it up to get me home thismorning and what a f**k on! It was either too tight so wouldnt release fully and making the clutch slip or it was too tight and i couldnt get any gears so just struggles on home with a slipping clutch. Was only 80mile but it made it. £48+vat for a cable from peugeot! Think al just make one out of wool for cheap  ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Anyone have any idea what size trumpets fit inside morettes? Seen a few posts about them but there are 2 different sizes i have found! 76mm & 83mm am sure it will be 76mm but i wan something thats going to fit in there nice and tight.Not a lot going on at the minute, just waiting on a few parts coming from Ash so i can make i start with my spare rear beam, fit roller bearing front wish bones as well. Thinking about going for some full in car breaded brake lines too like i had in the saxo, flocked dash and a half decent and comfy set of bucket seats ready for a bit track action starting in March ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Think 1 of my top mounts are done in, knocks and creeks al the time. Wouldnt mind some adjustable top mounts but dont think they can be ran with these coilovers as there is only enough threads fpr standard top mounts unless there are other top mounts i can run? Not sure what the KAD top mounts are like?________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Just there are 4 holes but you only use 3, wasnt sure if the right top mount was different to the left? Been meaning to ask for a while but always forgot about it ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Today is its last day on the road before it goes away for a little while so i can pull the exhaust off. Need to get something done with the down pipes as there cracked in a few places and have a couple of flat spots now off when i smashed my sump. Been looking for a replacement but cant seem to find any? Also found Mark Dow sent me this last week  ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |
