    mirrors

    They are just plastic covers with a chrome paintjob, not real aluminium. Just so you know.

    Which springs for bilstein B6?

    Chiel Bos have replacement springs on the same height as OEM, but I'm not completely sure these are stiffer. www.chielbos.com

    Suspension reviews, please

    Why is it that brits mostly talk about the Bilstein B8's? While you can also get the B6 and don't have to bother about installing other ARBs.... It might be that B6 coilover's aren't know or available in the UK, but here on the mainland it's well known and proven to handle spot on. Just a...

    Grinding noise!!!

    Sounds like one of the catalytic converters is about to give up his job, me guess.

    ET + spacer question

    Correct, thanks for pointing out. I've come to this set-up: Slightly wider track then standard, esp. since I'll be running OE ARB's and Bilstein B6 with -25mm springs...therefor don't want to lower the ET under 24. You reckon this would be a good set-up for a smooth, non-aggresive drive?

    Seat folds but doesn't move forward!

    Cheers. Will be looking into this matter, hopefully nothing major.

    Seat folds but doesn't move forward!

    Little question, about the same subject so just taking the opportunity to post here: When you fold your seat forward does it stay in that position or do you need to keep pressure on while jumping into the back seat? I find it quite annoying mine doesn't keep in the forward position until...

    Forge Split R (Splitter) DV Fitting Help Needed Please!

    I've fitted the Split-R last weekend and can't say the car prefoms differently. There is a soft woosh which is quite nice compaired to the lack of any noise from the standard Bosch. I'm also wonder how much clicks would be best? Running on an ABT chip.

    ET + spacer question

    The drawing is 'home-made' by me...and I was just guessing :) So the scale doesn't count. Perhaps I'll take the effort to pull a wheel off and get all the needed mesurements to be able to order bolts with the correct length.

    Emotion Strada 18" 7.5J, Gunmetal. The rims I've drawn above are just 'fantasy rims' not the actual Strada's :)

    ET + spacer question

    I've come up with this setup, as shown in the picture below. I'm aware it only slightly wider then standard but I'm a bit afraid going to wide. Opinions are that a much wider track then stardard will cause damage to wheel bearings overtime. Perhaps you guys disagree? Who knows how deep the...

    ET + spacer question

    Aha, that's the answer! I couldn't imagine there would be enough contact to make it a solid construction, but you've proven me wrong. Got a product # on those spacers, or is the picture an copy/paste one off the net? I'll dig myself into the H&R site to see if I can find a set of 10mm with...

    ET + spacer question

    Bolts are about 5mm longer then the standard so that should be ok. Just out of curiosity; how will 10 (or more) mm spacers fit over the wheel centre hub and have a centre alignment hub of 57.1mm? (instead of the 70mm like shown in the picture in post #4) Imo the grease cap will bump into the...
