Rab got a reaction from Deacon in Anyone up for an epic adventure? 9th-13th April
It's usually the 2 weeks following the Easter weekend but as it falls so early next year it is the 2nd-17th April in Glasgow, however this seems to vary regionally as the Highland's are 25th March - 10th April:

If you seriously have to moan about not being able to see our the rear windows for 1% of the time that you actually drive the car then you have far too much time on your hands. Here are some tips...
1. Reverse into your driveway so you can drive out forwards. No need a for rear window
2. Use the rear screen heater. It will clear any moisture within a few minutes. If you don't have a few minutes for whatever reason, leave earlier...
3. There are magical products out there that have hydrophobic properties. This helps shift water
4. Drive the bloody car...water has a tenancy to move when you're at speed...
5. Find something else to do with your time rather than trying to justify the need for a rear wiper by saying it's a safety hazard without one. It's not. Get over it.
The shape of the car means that it's not like hatchbacks with a flat rear end where water and crap from the road will stick to the back window. I have never ever needed a rear wiper on this car and even if I can't see out the back, I use my side mirrors. It's what they're there for. The law states you only need 2 rear facing mirrors for a reason...

Rab got a reaction from Keethos in £££ OFFERS Five Axis 19" Alloys
I was only -15mm which didn't actually need the camber adjustment. These are a direct fit as Rob said

Rab reacted to Panigale in £££ OFFERS Five Axis 19" Alloys
Thanks rob275 for relaying that information to me so quickly! I think they could be a bargain for me Rob, but I was going to go for 18" wheels - so offset all o.k and no spacers etc? In your experience of all things GT86, are there any problems or bad points about going for these wheels? Sorry to have to pick your knowledge on this, but I only came across the advert last night and I am desperately trying to find info and put to the wife before getting back to fatrab.
By the way what a fantastic club - people so helpful and so nice to me at Newark JAE a few weeks back.
p.s Just paid membership as I think it's well worth it.

These wheels were made for the GT86, you won't have any fitment issues.

Rab got a reaction from Panigale in £££ OFFERS Five Axis 19" Alloys
I've had a change of plans and as such I'm now selling these 19x8.5" Five Axis S7:F alloys. Just the wheels, no tyres, 5x100 45mm offset. Came off my BRZ after only 900 miles so are in as new condition.
Located in Hamilton, near Glasgow but can be brought down to Liverpool/Northwest if it helps

Rab reacted to Tareim in £££ OFFERS Five Axis 19" Alloys
unfortunately I think 19" is a bit too big, looking at staying 17" GLWTS

We may come in the AE86 would be interesting to see what it puts out with the rebuilt engine.
