Very nice price, my mech is £35 per hour but he did used to work for TRD :)

The clicking came back tonight, it's quieter but then that's how it started, gonna replace the pads again I think and another new pin kit. See if that does it if not I am stumped cause the garage said they had fixedit. :cry:
-
made the front splitter black, all badges black.

like what u done with the fog for an air intake, Did u just remove the lense or did u go another way?

Thought it looked familiar! Good luck with the sale.
-
Yeah… i thought that too!!!
Good Luck with the sale... but please, gimme your spoiler and lights first :wink:
-
just to say if that is yours, the listing is very vague and a bit poop really
and if you are selling up, why not px the rear spoiler for a standard one with a club member before it went :wink:
-
I pulled it, TBH i did'nt want to sell it just so tired of paying so much money for parts and fitting for something else to go pop on me :evil: , I love this car and if I do go ahead and sell for real then I will offer out the lights and spolier….. For now she stays. :wink:
-
:D :D
If you want spares just ask, I can find most parts cheap or we can point you in the right direction, dont lose heart with it,
remember once they are repaired they are new :wink:
its only a matter of time until all the worn bits are replaced and then lots of happy motoring after that :)
-
true yeah, i just replaced the arb's costing £140 inc labour now I have rear brake issues, my pads are getting eaten alive, just put on a set a month ago and they are dead after 2000 miles! thanks though, if I need I usually do ask :P
-
if the pads are being eaten, thats either dodgy discs with rough faces or sticky calipers on the rear. :D
-
only just seen this thread. was trying to find the nearest other 1.6. i really like what you've done. red and black works well. glad you removed the rim tape. Is this project still going?
