that's them mate, Conbear is there web site. I only change the one as I had to do a call out for the bearing. (After hours) and this was the only one that was making noise.

The headsex tune is going great. It has completely changed the car. Getting a retune soon too, I have a 4 inch intake, moved the Battery and Valve springs have been done so I ready for more boost. Just have to hope the gear box doesn't jump over broad.

How is your car going? upgrading any more things yet?

Good to hear buddy...

Mines going sweet... Yeah well rego and now some suspension stuff has come up so performance mods are on hold a bit, but next on the list is actuator, cause mine is piss poor...

With the bearing thing, I dont know much if anything about them, and the guy never called me back for prices etc... What exactly do I need to replace? The bearings itself or the whole hub? Or does it depend on how bad its gotten? Will probably pop into the CBC place during the week but I need to know what I need exactly, so I can pick it up..

Cheers Mike

I sent them an e-mail and they pretty much said exactly what you said hehe. I was quoted $155 for a hub. You said you got yours for $80? You said you did yours yourself so im assuming you bought a new bearing instead of the whole hub and replacing that?

Cheers Mike...

You can not buy the bearings, you have to buy the hole hub, they are a sealed unit. There is no other way to get them. If you want me to get you two bearings let me know(both sides) and I should be down in Melb this week, so I could drop them off at Danny's house for you.

CBC - consolidated bearing company. my old man used to work there but work for BSC now same stuff. can get anything from bearings for cars to fanbelts. hose clamps the screw driver ones better then the ones they use these days with the prongs.

Do you know that CBC owns BSC, they own about all of the bearing companys in Australia. And the leave them open with other brands so they have all of the market. So your old man is still with CBC, but has a different heading.

. I have 19's, cheap tyres and TTF (tyre factory) said 40psi...

I run 30psi with my 18's. Excessive tyre wear in the centre of the tyre is over inflation.
