  1. Top man It will just effect the rear toe wont it ?? I shouldnt have to remove the lower arms
  2. His spare doesnt look up to much though
  3. Yes 28/7/10 @ 50778 miles Mot has just been done at 51292 miles so not that many miles since alignment I can get the arms at a reasonable price at the moment normally £140ish plus the bushes each side but a trader i know is doing them with new bushes for £110 so i will buy them now but probably fit them after xmas . Its only an advisory though wasnt a fail but i am very fussy
  4. MOT picked up wear in the rear trailing arms , either the ball joint or the bush or both In line with most of the stuff i do on the Evo I will change both with new and replace all the bolts as well , but since i only had the alignment set recently is there anyway i can do it without throwing the settings out too much ??
  5. No the difference is you can align yourself easier in using the side mirrors you will know if you are central before getting out and pushing it back straight
  6. You could always use the old tennis ball on a bit of string trick You hang a tennis ball from the roof on a piece of string , you can then use it as a reference point when lining up perhaps have two balls and use one on each side I used to do this for putting my Skyline into the garage as the bumper almost had to touch the wall to allow me to close the door
  7. I think the car was still running to start with , marshalls are told to wait until the engines die down in that case Most drag fires are at the other end of the track, start line fires are rare
  8. You are doing well Tony car looks fab but truth is some products not sold in shops give better results for a lot less effort , thats not saying you cant get decent results with off the shelf stuff though
  9. Funny though loved the stream of oil coming up ,cant believe they didnt drain it they couldhave just checked this vid out Please wait a few moments for Video to Load!
  10. Don't you use it on it's own? No not on paintwork , dont think it looks that good
  11. No its kind of creamy and needs applying with a pad and then taking off with a clean mf
  12. I use optiseal on wheels but its strips wax and other lsp's so i dont use it on paintwork
  13. I either use z6 then z8 or Optimum quick detailer but this this spray wax has more of a sealant feel , i'll see how long its lasts as its on our gloss black superb
  14. I've been spending of late bought some of the Optimum spray wax , goes on quick and easy ideal for a top up bought a couple more waxes another Collinite to try and Dodo Hard Candy . I like the autosmart bubble gum , i use the California scent air fresheners in the car and give it a spray of the blast after cleaning, also use berry blast and a autosmart hanging fresheners when doing other peoples cars
  15. Some places only stock certain brands and most people have their favourites I mostly use Zaino and Optimum products but use most other stuff at some point as well Maybe we should start a basic what to buy thread
  16. Nice job , i used to use Fenwicks cleaner when i had my caravan , its great at getting rid of the green stuff and leaves it looking clean and shiny
  17. Yes a decent drying towel for drying , using a chamois is a very good way to introduce swirls and scratches Halfords usually stock the meguirs waffle weave ones which are ok but a nice plush towel is essential washing kit imo
  18. http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/zaino/z-10-l...e/prod_473.html these guys
  19. I use Zaino Z10 did my Superb2 at the beginning of the year and its still looking really good
  20. I do like a clean and tidy engine My Evo 6 My old Skyline My old Dragbike
