+1 for turbo side, couldn't be happer with mine
-
My current tank in my fg is the united 100 octane. It does seem to spool a tiny bit faster in my opion but the economy would be 10% to 15% worse then ultimate.
-
Hey was it any of you guys I was following on the way home, black BA turned off main north on to McIntyre rd, then bridge rd if it was decent effort on to bridge.
-
My cambers a bit more in on the rears and the fronts are Laying in a bit more but will prob leave it, I get tyres for next to nothing and will prob be getting some varrstoen 2.2.2 soon with some pretty aggressive offsets, so the camber may be needed
-
I have just got the fg 19 lux pack wheels, but have cut another 20mm off the bump stops since then and haven't had a car load since to test. Real test will come when it warms up, when it will be full car load plus jet ski. What did you do with your bump stops 1nsane?
-
Yeah I'm a diesel mechanic so I did it myself. It's not a hard job, but if your not mechanically minded it would be worth getting someone else to do it. I personally just cut mine, but I'm sure any suspension shop would have them or get them. My fg dropped about 35mm front and 45mm rear. I had a full car load the other day prob about 380kg and few cartons of piss and the ride was less than average haha.

I fitted this set up with ssl fronts and sssl rears a month ago. Only thing you will need is to buy shortened rear bump stops or just cut your standard ones off about half way. The car feels a lot more solid on the road compared to standard.
-
Yeah it's just one big clunk. It feels like a ball joint or bush twisting. I'm heavy diesel mechanic so I hate paying people to work on my car but it looking like I might have to take fraud
-
It just doesn't seem like ABS or a normal thing, people can hear it from out side the car and I can feel it through the floor with my feet, tomorrow if I don't feel like a pig, I'll jack the front end up and spin both the wheels up slowly and see if it will do it.
-
I was the last one at work so I thought I'd test it out in the car park haha, Yeah speedo works in reverse. Didn't make the noise when I got to 15 forwards again, which confuses me even more
-
Yep I'd say clutch is shagged
-
Found out tonight that mine also makes the clunk if I do 15 kph in reverse. Checked sway bar mounts and swaybar link rod ball joints tonight, found nothing wrong.
-
My fg is making the same clunk noise when taking off, doesn't matter how long I drive under 15kmh as soon as I go over "clunk". Doesn't happen again once moving unless I let the car sit for half a hour. Also put in my ssl and sssl and new shocks in on the weekend, I checked most things while at it but couldn't see anything

Rota Wheels, Who's Got Them And What Size's Ba-Bf

So if I went say 19 235 35 on 9 +20, 255/265 35 on 10 +20 Would that fit with out rolling, on ssl/sssl as well. Just trying to get it right the first time, these rims anything but flush will look half done, IMO -
