  15. hi mate i would check ure pads as its not a big job anyways, and as for the power button this is supposed to be a sports button watever thats supposed to do as i cant tell a difference, and the red button is to select gears i.e neutral if towing instead of using the brake,press this and u will be able to select any gear without applying the brake to release when stationery,
  16. i was looking at a set of NEX coilovers on ebay for £378 and postage is £125 , have u heard of this brand and do u know if these are any good
  17. i want good handeling also and if i get the 30mm springs it might rub so at least i can set the coilovers less or more drop to suit if u get what i mean lol

  19. hey ppl im after a set of coilovers for my altezza 1999 model,lookin anly to drop the car around 30mm as i am running 18" wheels and dont want any rubbing, iv also got a tight budget so keeping the cost to a minimum, any ideas
  20. thats a ****ter then not to keen on spending £700 but wee will see
  21. thats really annoying that lol obviousely ill need the turbo apexi ecu to run the s/charger aswell is there anywere else who sells these closer to home as its an extra £300 on top of a standard turbo altezza ecu wich comes in at £400 this is £696
  22. whats the verdict on these , what are ure thoughts as im thinking of purchasing one as these look like a good investment, im thinking of getting this as ill be fitting cams and also bigger injectors,intercooler in the next few weeks , will this power fc be ok for the triptronic model altezza, im also running the blitz charger so this should allow me to give a good safe setup after the mods, am i right ?
  23. u sure its not ure drop link as they make a hell of a noise when they are nacked
  24. good effort matey , hows it in comparison to the itr v-tec then was it the 180 bhp or the 220bhp dc2 or dc5 thought this would have been slower as the type R v-tec gives u some kick back , i myself also drive an altezza lovely cars ,enjoy
