LiamWood!

Not that I've heard of. Get it jacked up, grab a pry bar and check for play on all your bushes/ball joints, they may look ok but move around a lot.

Very, I was rear ended on the way to work one morning by someone speeding and not paying attention, then someone pulled out on me, causing me to crash but they left before the rozzers arrived so the wasent traced and then a police van reversed into my car whilst it was parked outside my girlfriends.

Drummonds vauxhall breaker. Just outside of York is where I got my engine from.

I've only used so far their Jetseal 109 and their V34 and V36 so far and been really impressed by the results. Oh I've used the Mr Pink shampoo too, smells lovely and suds beautifully.

Anything from Chemical guys.

A kestrel Das 6, chemical guys polishing and finishing pads, Mr Pink shampoo, chemical guys V range of compounds and polishes and chemical guys Jetseal 109.

Just spent £160 on cleaning products. Waits for Jardos approval.

Such a funny little boy aren't you. How about you f**k off and grow up.

Because it's a corsa, buy a civic and all will be well.

No as soon as the oil pump pressures up the turbo gets pressure. Just turn it over a few times with the coil pack/ dizzy unplugged.

Why bother making this thread then if you have already been riding on it after you did a piss poor repair?

As above, it's not worth repairing at all, just buy a new tyre.

Throw it in the bin and buy a new tyre.

If it's not too excessive camber then tracking it will help to an extent if you haven't had the tracking done since lowering it. Beyond that I'd assume you would need some camber bolts? I'm not sure what you vag boys run in terms of camber adjustment.

No worries at all mate.

Sounds promising Jardo. Also check your Pm's.

Civic f**king LCA bolts really do grip my shit. If they aren't snapping when you try to undo them they won't go back into the capsulated nut on the subframe because the bush in the LCA is twisted. A job which should of took 30 minutes took me 3 hours.

I've got 2 sets of oem ek9 wheels anyway, one set with mismatched ditch finders on which will get burned up and tyres removed so I can refurb the wheels, then a nice set of wheels with yoko spec 2s on which will also get burned up and replaced with ad08s.

I understand what you mean with the whole stance shite, I can't stand it personally. My ek9 is going to be built with track use in mind. It's running a b18c4 turbo, 349hp at the flywheel, 4.7Fd LSD gearbox from an integra. Just the paintwork is a problem really, I just need Jardo to write me an idiots guide to polishing it, with what products to use in which order. Sam next time your in Barton, drop me a text mate. Also, staying with the Oem wheels. The fortrans where 4x100 so won't fit the Ek9 unfortunately.

Whys that? (Serious question btw)

Thanks for the input Danny. The car has been washed since those pictures, that's all I have to show the oxidisation on the paint. The sticker is also staying I'm afraid.

In need of your advice Jardo/ car cleaning people. I have a championship white Ek9 that's in need of a great deal of loving. It's been stood outside a workshop for the best part of a year without being washed/cared for etc etc. The paint has oxidised rather badly but what sort of products will bring the paint back to life and what methods would you go through to achieve the glossy deep shine it deserves? Here's some pictures: Liam.

Did you know that you had to pull anal beads out slowly? I didn't. I started the missus like a f**king chainsaw.
