    Whats up with these discs?

    Trying to fit my bremobs and I just cant get them to fit properly.. I originally thought it was the adaptor as you need to grind the caliper back for it to fit square.. Done that - Not my pik but dont this - Fitted better - But for some reason when you tighten the wheel onto the...

    330mm brake upgrade

    Now I know some people dont like these kits as they use brackets to mount the caliper...but for those who have used it how would you rate it over standard? Im fed up of waiting for a set of ksports to come up and havent got £8/900 for new ones so im thinking about one of these kits for the...

    Is this a vertex ridge kit (Ray, Dean any ideas)

    Torque GT have just listed this cracking S15 they have got coming over :nod: - http://www.torque-gt.co.uk/auction_details/?act=productDetail&productId=511# Now I'm usually quite good at kits but something’s not right with this one, I’m 90% sure it’s a ridge kit but with a normal vertex front...

    I've found the best lip for an S15

    The guy used to have a thread on here but he's no longer an active user. After lots of searching on the net, there are a few threads about this lip but nobody knows what it is! Could well be a custom job... Either way...it looks absolutely brilliant! :D

    Home owners / Saving for a house?

    So what’s your story, are you currently saving like me or did you make the plunge into home ownership already? I keep having bad thoughts about selling the S15 so I can have a nice wedge towards a deposit for a house, keep talking myself out of the idea though as I love my car too much. I want...

    My visit to Japfest 2012

    Japfest 2012 turned out to be a great day! When we got to Coombe I initially didn’t think much of the stand as I was expecting a nice flat open plan field where you could get some good photos of each of the cars. It was also very dusty! :p Saying this though my mind soon changed when I began...

    For those that have converted kmh to mph speedo

    Realised last night that the last MOT i told them the wrong mileage! Doh! What I did was get them to convert the total number on the clocks to miles as I told them it was in km's... What I should have done was use the number of km's at the point the car was picked up. Then it was converted to...

    Standard rear camber adjustment

    Hi Guys Can someone explain how to go about adjusting the rear camber on standard arms. I know there is very little room for adjustment using standard arms but I would like to see if I can improve it even slightly as I want to reduce tyre wear. I see that the bolts have markings on them but...

    Rant about this country (Petrol related)

    Well I’m surprised there isn’t a thread already! So last week when it all kicked off on Wednesday or Thursday I think it was..everyone decided the world was going to end or something and decided to brim their tanks! Meanwhile as this kicked off I was driving around on the red as I intended to...

    Emigrating to somewhere better than the UK

    This isn’t something I’m thinking about seriously doing however it crossed my mind earlier and thought I’d look into it. This is because I am looking at buying a house in the not so distant future and find it somewhat sickening at the amount of house you can get for your money in other...

    Possible new belts needed? Video included

    Just wanted to check as im pretty certain I need new belts but just wanted to make sure. The 'airy' noise you can here, would you say that is the belts? I would of thought if the belts were slipping even a tiny amount then it would be more of a squeeky noise? When I am parked up it sounds...

    How many people use engine braking on a daily basis?

    Just wondered as I generaly always use my clutch to slow me down when going at slow-moderate speeds...obviously this puts added wear on the clutch and added strain on the drivetrain but just how much? How long would you expect a clutch to last engine braking on a regular basis? I never do it...
