hmmmm... tempting....
but need some new tyres... fronts are a bit lacking in tread...
time to write my letter to santa... lol
 
glad you enjoyed yourself nick. was back on the road at 4.30. had thrown a pad out of the back and pushed the piston out,fluid ****ing out. new pads and a quick clean up on the pistons and all's good. get yourself some side bars and we'll get them fitted for you one weekend before January. ugly duck,you'd be more than welcome to tag along,the more the merrier.

cheers would you let me know when in january ? also while we're on this subject can anyone give me some pointers on fitting a lift kit... do i need any special tools or anything ?
(i know wrong place to post this)
sounds like you had fun... im looking forward to january....
(still fancy kirton at some point)
cheers guys
 
no special tools, just big jack and axl stands - a big socket set is handy (up to 32mm iirc) but otherwise its just nuts and bolts mate.

sounds good to me cheers for the pointers... no excuse not to get it done now....
just need some new tyres... then we're ready to go...
:)
 
brill :D

i dont know what youre thinking of, but 265/75/16 insa turbo is by far and away the best value for money

if you do plenty of road mileage its worth keeping them for pay and play only and use your road tyres where they belong :)

otherwise i think 31x10.5x15 ATs are a great option, theyre good enough for pay and play but still drive like stock on road.

cheers
