Well heres my latest wheels with some nice flush valves.. Also painted my calipers and got decals at the same time.. :winky: -
Well ive had a wobble under braking.. (not really sure if theres a slight one when driving as its been so long since i had a car without it) and have never found a solution... have changed what was said to be a stuck caliper.. changed discs and pads... changed wheels.. and tyres.. and still the same.. told the bearings are fine so im at a loss... will try these though was hoping you can tell me if your wobble was there all the time or mostly under braking...? what is also strange for me is that when i replace the wheels having had them off... it drives fine for maybe 50-100km... and then the problem comes back... its like something moves or that.. any thoughts?? Cheers..

So he really wanting 4k for Blitz charger then, s/hand to :o you need to find out the price of Blitz charger new Says the charger is 4k new.. but not searched it... im just curious about it all.... Oh... someone just did search it Is it true the internals are just as weak??? Yes you have to be very curious with Dave (prolex) these days, as he is still saying things he knows nothing about, had email of someone the other week, asking about pistons,turns out Dave had told him the wrong info about pistons in turbo charged engines, not good really ps. and if i know Dave.....its still in Japan and he can get it for you I think it does say it can be got... THINK........ Some things never change its just a case of going on the sites Dave uses, you can get much cheaper that way :winky: There an altezza engine on ebay at the mo with the 5 speed semi-auto transmission for 1,700 quid Claims to have 30,000km on it and price includes delivery..... Says its the yamaha tuned edition (whatever that means).. Just for info.. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TOYOTA-LEXUS-ALTEZZA...304127002r21275 -
