Couple of questions dudes....................

If I were to get my hands on a flywheel, how much should I get skimmed off (father in law works at engineering firm and done one from a hillman imp). If I were to do this would it cure the constant judder I get when pulling off?

What should the vertical camber be on the front wheels?

Edited to add Dave you bling tart face-icon-small-wink.gif

Dont know on the flywheel dude.

Camber depends on your style of driving; I take it this is because of the outside edge going that you pointed out at the grandstand?

In which case either 0 deg for neutral or as most alignment places in UK do is -1 deg.

However I have read that toe in/out can cause wear on edges to.

Best get alignment done, Fast Fit have the proper laser 4 wheel computer setup, but its £80.face-icon-small-shocked.gif

I'm guessing it's something that goes bang quite a lot..... face-icon-small-wink.gif

Fegging exhaust came off over a speed bump this morning so I had to abandon the car and run back home. Grrrr! Today is going to be one of those days. face-icon-small-sad.gif

Got it sorted again.

Couldn't believe it though earlier. Just as I got back to the car after work to remove the zorst and drive off the police rang me. They said they'd received a complaint about where my car was parked from someone.

They were fine when I explained I'd left it there because the exhaust had come off and was moving it the first possible chance but they had to check.

I don't mind them ringing me but I do object to whoever the jobsworth prick was that complained.

The exhaust came off on the road that goes along the edge of ballakermeen playing fields but a bit lower down where it's quite narrow and I carried on 50 yards or so with it dragging on the road so I could turn into the estate so it wouldn't be in the way. It was pretty close to the junction but off the main road and not in anyone's way so I can't believe someone made a complaint!! I hope their car breaks down in front of an oncoming train.

Next time if it happens I'll leave it out on the road causing an obstruction seeing as there's no yellow lines. It might cause 10 times the inconvenience & danger to other drivers but at least it won't be parked in front of someone's precious house so it's ok!face-icon-small-mad.gifface-icon-small-mad.gifface-icon-small-mad.gif

Good luck with the exams Jimmy dude.

Typical hey Jim, there is always some git who's got nothing better to do than cause agro.face-icon-small-disgusted.gif

Going to have to watch the speed bumps myself now, 20mm drop all round.

And the most surprising thing is how much stronger the brakes feel!face-icon-small-confused.gif

But the best bit is the back end don?t bog down when booting it, err sorry in my case, when you lightly press the accelerator.face-icon-small-smile.gif

So when you back fella?

Not 100 per cent sure when I'm heading back yet but might be in a few weeks.

Lots of things to sort out first.

PS: I could have done all that manifold wrapping with 99p sheet of baco-foil! Lol

It's been too long since I've watched the innards of a Subaru engine bay being splayed out in farm outbuilding in the middle of Colby! Lol

Dude, I told you not to cut that tiny wire on the ECU....would have saved you two days of putting an engine in and out a million times!! Lol
