On my stock wheels I went 15mm front and 20mm rear and it was a pretty good fitment with some lowering springs.

I never had an issue with the eibach spacers I put on with my stock wheels, probably 10k + miles.

I'm pretty impressed with the kit after afew track days, not had any fade but granted im no pro. For the money though i think its great.
Have you got any pictures of them fitted to your car? hard to judge the size of the calipers without a wheel.

If I were to add the MTEC Springs & Shifter Bush to the N/A package, what kind of improvement do you see to the gear change?
Does it get rid the 'clunky' second gear?
Also do you have availability all through December or only certain days?
-
Pretty sure my Eibach springs have seen better days so looking at upgrading to some coilovers.
Anyone have any for sale?

Learnt a hard lesson last Saturday night that you should just drink and leave the car at home rather than not drinking and driving!
Someone had cut across my car leaving some lovely scrapes on my front bumper and even better damaging and cracking my Seibon carbon front splitter!
The bumper i'm not so concerned about as its relatively 'cheap' to sort out but the splitter is another story!
Does anyone know of a company in the North East that repairs carbon?

Hi Mike,
What days are the free spaces on? guessing the whole thing takes a few hours?
Could a full 60,000 service be done at the same time?

My local dealership (RMB Teesside) has started doing the repair works as I've seen a fellow member discussing it, so i rang up and inquired about booking it in but they have twice fobbed me off saying they will ring me back to book a slot (has anyone in the history of the world had a call back from a dealership?!). All I can do is keep trying i guess because i feel i might be waiting a long time if i leave it for them to contact me!

2 hours ago, Lowe said:Yeah they come from China. There's various sites for the Chinese manufacturers, take your time looking through them and see if you can get a deal. The biggest issue you'll have is that they all tend to use the same generic stock pictures, so you'll have no idea on the quality of the item you're buying. I've been considering getting a couple more in if demand is there since I know that the ones I can get hold of are decent.
If this eBay one doesn't work out then i'd be very interested in getting one from you @Lowe.
If there is interest from other members, how much would one be?

I'm looking to buy and fit a SARD LSR wing, cant quite justify the price of an official one so will be going down the replica route.
Has anyone bought or imported one? The plastic or carbon one?
Realistically i will be buying it from FT86 speedfactory, they look popular with the forum, have people had good experiences with them?

12 minutes ago, Lowe said:Depends on your dealer I guess. Mine have said OK - but then I'm also considering what else to get done while the engine's out. Clutch is a potential, as is any timing chain stuff that's otherwise a dick to get to.
Have they said what kind of discount they'd be willing to offer?
Or do they just take the labour charge of removing the engine off your bill?
-
Do you reckon they'd be willing to do a deal on the 60,000 mile service for the plugs if they are already taking the engine out?!
I'm fully expecting a no here though lol

Is this MOT compliant with the additional light bar coming on?
Or is just the flashing brake light mod which is an MOT fail?
