    Stock anti-roll bars wanted

    I'd be happy to swap, but don't have the ability to DIY. If you can wait while I get switched over then it's a possibility but may be time consuming.

    Bilstein B14 coilovers - review

    Still happy with these? Recommended for day-to-day commuting and occasional fast road?

    Bristol/Southwest specialist?

    Thanks Rob. Confirms my findings.

    Bristol/Southwest specialist?

    Yep, I'm booked in to Tuning Devs in August now. I've been happy with Fensport and still am, but it's such a trek it means an overnight stay for anything but the most trivial job. At least Warrington is only a couple of hours away.

    How often should the TC light come on?

    Running in new tyres? A couple of miles to lose the lube but that's it, surely? Never been an issue for me anyway.

    He probably has that remaining having used most of his 30MB? Needs to follow link above to edit existing post. Maybe. Probably.

    Grover's ginger jap

    Yep. PH may not be what it once was, but I still spend some time there. No proper photos, though I took a couple of snaps last time I cleaned it. As Lauren & Nicebiscuit said, V105 are leagues ahead of the Primacy and way better than the Assymetric 2 I had previously. Very happy with them. Yours is looking good too, despite being one of the slower colours.

    not necessary. If it all goes horribly wrong it's your fault!

    Grover's ginger jap

    It's only been a few days and I've changed my mind already. As the ride's pretty harsh and I've starting getting an unwelcome clunk in fast left turns I'm sorting the handling first. Need to get stock/OEM ARBs and a set of the Billies as per Nicebiscuit's review here.

    Southwest?

    I'm near to Bristol and quite like Dartmoor, Exmoor & Devon roads. Maybe a North Devon meet at somewhere like Woolacombe? A decent drive out for most but a nice place to go for a day out and maybe lunch or something?

    Bilstein B14 coilovers - review

    I'm no track pilot but car's a bit rubbish on stock springs/dampers and too stiff after-market ARBs. I'm sorely tempted by these Billies at 25% off.

    My limited experience of Litchfield mirrors yours.

    Urgent advice - Decals -!

    I wasn't a fan of the decals in the brochure, but in real life they're not so bad. Each to their own and all that. Welcome and enjoy your new car.

    Next on the list is headers. Decided to go for Tuning Developments EL and overpipe, but slowly changing my mind and may switch to unequal when it comes to installation which isn't until second weekend of August. As and when funds and time allows, my list is currently: Tein coilovers & EDFC Decided against these, probably going to be Bilstein B14 Final drive Aluminium prop-shaft Lightweight pulleys Braided brake lines Master cylinder support/brace Low temp thermostat Feel more comfortable messing about with it as it approaches 50,000 miles and four years. If I completely mess it up I'll just buy a new one, the 2017 model has some interesting changes.

    Suspension setups question

    If anyone has a set of stock/OE ARBs collecting dust let me know.

    TRD Heavy Duty Top Mount

    Ah, sorry - my mistake. I'll get me coat...

    TRD Heavy Duty Top Mount

    Maybe not quite that expensive, list is only £640 +VAT: CLICK - unless you include the cost of fitting (which would be similar whichever you went for, no?).

    Tuning Developments Manifold & Remap Review

    Thanks for taking the time to review. First I've heard of the clearance issue. Easy fix?
  21. Mike, you've done a few now, enough to compare? Are you seeing much difference between unequal and equal length?
  22. Sorry off-topic but, please would you get printouts to show ft·lbf rather than HP for the torque figures?

    Rear Parcel Shelf removal.

    Ouch! Amber is listing them at £149.94 plus carriage! Considering they're $149.95 plus carriage from the US seems like taking the piss to me. Any other suppliers of these over here?
