  1. I cant fault the idle with my 60's, but have maxed them out on 50/50 98ron and e85. I was planning on going 80's till I read about the id1000's...
  2. THE STORY: I received my wheel spacers from the u s a couple days ago and started putting them on. I opened the box and I THINK I checked that they were all there (the box felt light) and I think I saw them all. so I put the front ones on with all the rigamarole of cutting the end of the studs off etc, then installed and got my son to go o the end of the road and back so I could have a mickey mervy. then back in the driveway, up with the rear and took the wheels off. asked the lad to hand me another spacer and he informed me there were none left. ??? started to poke around a bit, but no luck. the garage is a bit of a mess on the floor due to sorting out my work trailer/ building my sub box/ another couple projects I have on, so had a better look, all the while thinking I had seen 4 (but now wondering). time for the good searcher- the missus started having a decent look, but no good. checked all the usual places in the house where I have a tendency to put things down. still no luck. even went for a walk down the road to check I hadnt put them on the car or something stupid and they fell off when the lad drove up and down. since then I have sorted and cleaned the garage, looked all over 3 times, and pulled my hair out more, but no spacers anywhere. so I came to the conclusion that I was mistaken and there were only 2 in the box. so I emailed the supplier and let them know, and I got a response this morning: Dear fordriver1, I apologize for the mix up - we will ship out two more right away today THank you for letting us know - lugs-n-stuff so the upshot is- I recommend these guys for spacers. they cost $160 bucks delivered, I received within 2 weeks and they provide excellent customer service. its an ebay shop and they have tonnes of different sizes etc... (if the spacers ever show up then I will send them back- im not a dishonest guy. if not then ive gone mad....) PS: I asked taleb first being a site sponsor and they recommended ebay.
  3. best place to get remsa pads?
  4. I heard that brembo's were not that good for the street? take a while to warm up before they clamp tight? the bomb for the track though cause once they are warm they bite like a bull terrier having his balls squeezed....
  5. no money left for brake cleaner?
  6. ok cool I thought it was still an unsure thing...
  7. or you buy a premium brake upgrade. I think there was a set for sale on ebay for 1k...
  8. mate the fit is beautiful- tight around the centre bore and wheels. (70.5mm bore size) you have to nip the end of the original studs (the smooth bit and about 2 threads for 25mm spacers) for the rims to sit flat on the spacer. that is if your wheels dont have relief holes on the rear face. remember to wind the nuts supplied with the spacer onto your original studs before cutting. that way when you wind them off after cutting they will clean the thread and you wont have any trouble getting the nuts over the cut.
  9. well ive had enough internets for one day. bye.
  10. I think rear premium brakes (pbr) are 328mm? actually bigger than the front but not vented...

  12. I got a level and put it against the guard down to the ground then measured the distance from the top of the rim to the inside of the level. exact equals flush, any more means poke....
