It was a new guy on here joe. He said he had never fitted it before seemed genuine when Ron and I went round but won't contact me back. I guess that's the expensive risk we take buying 2nd hand

Thats a shame if he's still on here and not responding. Not Cricket that.

It is a chance but when you buying from a fellow local forum member(unlike scoobynet or the good old facebook selling pages) you would hope they would be legit and honest,but when you get no contact back it only says one thing they knew it was f**cked in the first place

I recon you should go round do a recce , sit and wait for him coming home a give it back to him and get your money back as that is out of order doing that to a fellow member we are here to help each other out .

How does the P1 perform with the Eibach coilovers Tim and did you buy camber bolts as well .

Really like the coilovers. Didn't buy camber bolts as having the coilovers means more camber could be dialled in anyway

Good to hear still can't decide as there are so many out there just after a good set with a good firm ride but still keeps it planted to the road .

Indeed it does. Much better on motorways with that 6th gear
|
#164
|
||||
|
||||
Presumably the ratios are shorter so does it feel quicker?

Nice, what tyre size did you go for..... |
#170
|

|

215/45
|
#171
|

|
||||
You sure.....
Research I done over the last couple of weeks was reporting that 45's will rub the front arch liners and rear lip. Track tyres also have a squarer shoulder with edge to edge tread so are a little wider then road tyres. Prodrive's size was 205/45, but these are a rare tyre so the normal is 215/40 |

Yeh but P1WOC also told me to use 225/40, but when I quizzed them further they admitted they rubbed, those running 215/45 also admitted they rubbed, so not very useful recommending a size then admitting later they rub !!!!!
http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=38119 On BrianP1's ring lap you can here it....but I only noticed as it rubbed in the same place on the lap as mine on the lowered Tein's and 225/35 8x18's. |

Good luck with the map & the journey down there
|
#188

God that'll be a long journey with no boost. I remember going up to SRR with no boost and that was bad enough. Sure it'll be well worth it though. Have you used Bob Rawle before?

It just sounds like alot of time effort and money for very little gain which may end up with little power increase and less torque compared to ported oe. |

The original headers had pretty much had it anyway and certainly already sounds better.

Yes mate, I got a 2003 non dccd uk box with 63k on it. I wanted to keep my rear brakes rather than the cost of brembos so had to get the right diff to match
