Lovely work that! is the rear window tinted? Some reflection you got there!

See could you check for, how much dampers travel you have ? Just lie on the floor and feel how much of the piston you can feel.

Mine is lowered by 40mm with aftermarket dampers but a non-matching set and am only getting around 1cm-1.5cm which seems little. Just want to see how much you are getting.

Thanks
Ming

Ming, na haven't got any of the window's tinted yet. Can't decide if ah want them dun or not. Cos of how low the wee bugger is av had to take a picture View attachment 1480 ad say it was about 1-1.5cm too. Haven't had any problems with it yet, runs sweet round the corners on the M6 :cool3:
Here's the chopped up rear bump stop View attachment 1481 hopefully let the rear settle abit more although there ain't much movement.

So let's get this straight...you're publicly asking another man to help polish your pipes?

wooh there big boy!

as for yer alfa, if the 156 backbox is a cheaply made as the 147 s1 backbox then there is no hope for it! Our 52plate one was orange wi rust the first time there was a hint of rain after leaving the showroom.

Nice mate, very nice!

 

[Andi9386]

Very nice Rich, shame it wouldny fit on my Sei!!, quite happy with the standard Exhaust and an induction kit under the bonnet minus a breather hose, no thanks to the T****R I bought it from on ebay, so instead of Breather hose it has to Ripspeed Air Filters!! for now at least!

 

[imported_richard33dees]

As a few of you seen at St. Andrews, thanks to Dan (D4NS) on FiatForum, I've now got a GSR Induction kit fitted :devil:

Still need to remove the manifold flexi pipe and give the engine bay a good clean

Got a couple more plans brewing :secret: so much for not modding it :man_in_love:

 

[ycming]

Don't kid yourself not modding .

So many things could be removed from that bay! oil pack cover, mani fold flexi, mani heat sheild, firewall
