Once you've felt the power of his package, it's hard to go back... (God, I'm so childish... )

Just had a call from Toyota. I will say there response was quick and efficient, After ensuring i was ok and not in A&E they have ordered a replacement wheel nut and held there hand up as this is part of there Quality Control.
 
The Technician said he didnt remove any wheels during this service, I think that is untrue but there is no hard proof of this.
 
 

Nope, luckily it's still where I left it

Just sell your kidneys and do both like I did. If it helps - I scrimped on the wheels. Leave those stock for time being and do the rest. Coilovers make a big difference too

Quick spin out at lunchtime to try the new set up in the damp.
Wow - what a transformation. So much more confidence in the car. The decent damping keeps all four wheels on the Tarmac and thus grip levels much more predictable and the tyres actually grip. It will still step out but only if you want it to.
Now got the car I always wanted it to be. Grip and predictability without losing the feel and shift of balance on the throttle. Last time I felt this confident in a car on a B road was in my Puma fifteen years ago.
I think I might be in love

Simply install a small tap under each light. Hey presto. A handy drink dispenser.

Happy birthday to me!
Won't be fitted until Mid-August though.

Quick update. Car back into TD to sort what appeared to be a very slight clearance issue as the engine moves under torque. Overpipe removed and refitted - bit of a mystery as to the cause of the noise as no visible evidence of contact, but either way whatever was vibrating against whatever has stopped doing it following the refit, so jobs a good 'un.

Ah - hadn't spotted it wasn't a UK car ;-D
In that case I'd have a go yourself - what's the worst that could happen?

Jesus wept... No pressure there then.
Perhaps I'll get Lauren to have a go as she's tried most set ups - she can tell you whether I'm talking out of my backside...

I suppose. I guess my point is Its possible to like anything that has a point to it and a bit of character

My last car was a Saab. Epic in a straight line, hilariously dodgy in bends but like sitting in a stupidly fast armchair. Thus I loved it.

My other car is s Citroen Berlingo . I love that because it's a big square useful box, and not pretending otherwise. Also fun to drive quickly because it shouldn't be possible.

I love the GT86 because the compromises are true to its character.

For me the choices were the Fiesta, the Toyota or a V8 Jag (really). Couldn't be more different, but all interesting and with a bit of identity.

What I can't stand is when I borrow a car (usually an Audi) which is supposed to be refined luxurious, and it has 35 profile tyres and a friggin' awful ride. What's the earthly point of that?
(See also small cars that don't handle, and estates with no boot space or practically any SUV that couldn't manage a muddy field...)
