Re: 300+ miles to a tank of fuel (3SGE)

lol i'm lucky if i get 220 to a tank. This semester doing a 40mile round trip to uni everyday has been costing me a fortune and i've not been able to work as much- boohoo!

Re: Ran At Crail Yesterday

don't suppose you might have seen my mate Mark up at Crail. He was up in his silver Hyundai Coupe and blew his gearbox on the line on his first run. Had to get towed off in shame, he was sooo... gutted! lol

Would an ARC induction kit fit an N/a

well just like the title says would an ARC induction kit fit a rev3 n/a. Was talking to a guy who might be able to source one but thinks that they fit only the turbo engine and i'm sure i've heard otherwise on here.

Re: Broke my baby - clutch related

had a look and there doesn't seem to be any clutch centre chains in my area. The clutch was only replaced 6months ago just before i bought it and it seems that it was a very cheap part fitted by cowboys - got a receipt for a copied part clutch for 50 quid which is too cheap for it to be any good - h...

[Mk2 Generic] factory car mats

are factory car mats for the sw20 still available??

really need some new mats for the motor as mine are worn thru and keep slipping under the pedals and factory versions clip into the floor i believe so would rather go for them

Re: what wheels do you think?

well after much consideration and playing on photoshop i mite go for the kei racing d1's due to cost and the fact they are similar to the gram lites that i love but haven't got a hope of getting.

Re: what wheels do you think?

i was aiming to stagger the wheels but all the wheels i like are proving to be too expensive or unavailable if i want 8j on the rears. Also noticed in many posts that 235 on a 7j is a bit dodgy and looks rubbish??

Re: what wheels do you think?

just trying to work out the best setup i can afford with the RS5's. Am i correct in thinking that 17x7 all round with 215/40/17 at the front and 225/40/17 at the rear will be fine with an offset of 35??

last time i bought a set of alloys it was for my punto and it was never this hard lol

Re: what wheels do you think?

decided it has to be the Rs 5's. If anyone has them and could suggest a good setup and some prices they paid i would be so grateful. Going to make some phone calls for quotes now i think.

what wheels do you think?

hey i've got some money together and plan to treat my 2 to some well deserved rims but can't decide. Obviously i don't want to go too expensive so staggered jap rims are a no go but heres what i like, they're all pretty common choices. i've had a read and the best sizes seem to be 17x7 front with 21...
