- Thread starter DOLBY

Im gonna ask Issam for some kind of discount on these....good job im a patient man
Meanwhile i adjusted my suspension front rebound to more 'comfort' (1.5 clicks) and was shocked to find the car handles MUCH better

It'll be worth it though Darren. It's just a shame that these take so incredibly long to be sourced and delivered. Definitely justification for a cheeky discount

Darren? Lol its Bret dude!
Well i got to at least ask i suppose. The car is stage 2 Revo but the settings are dialled so far back that im not driving the full potential of the car..yet. Still very very fast but i really need the car serviced and mani fitted asap.
Nothing paid for yet buddy, but i may be cheeky and ask Alex when they finally come in...
Sorry Bret... It's been a long day!! It'll be awesome to have it at its best come the summer though.
Deffo go for the roll bar. Be nice to get the car back up and see you.
I paid for the rods months ago
Alex how much to change all the seals on the car? Just got back off holiday and there is more water on the INSIDE of the windows than the outside.
Oh and my bad at the "25% discount" on the ARB. It really isn't is it! Oops.
So when the rods come in, will have a rear bar and hopefully new seals.
Oh and Issam emailed me to say he will throw in some coil pack adapters for free.

Ok so I'm seriously considering cancelling my order for the rods as they are just taking too long! It's not Alex's fault but INA.
Along with this I have a whole load of other stuff that need doing with the car. Unfortunately wear and tear items are easily noticeable on a 7 year old car these days
1. Fit manifold and fit rods with other
Gubbins.
2. Rear anti roll bar.
3. AKS decat & modification of current exhaust to stop the rear beam knock.
4. Replace all door seals as the condensation is ridiculous ATM.
5. Suspension needs adjusting again as its beginning to get a tad uncomfortable.
6. Front & rear bumper respray and general tidy up.
7. Fit my near side jacking point cover as (at least) 10 ppl have tried but everyone struggles with it.
8. Wheel refurb in bright range rover silver again...this time I want EXTRA laquer and protection.
9. MOT & wheel alignment.
10. Remap at R T*E*C*H after running in period
Think this covers it. Lol. Tbh at times I feel like part exchanging it for a nice 3 litre Audi derv, as it's disheartening watching ppl overtaking me on the motorway in their diesels knowing...
A) I've spent ALOT of money making this car noisy and uncomfortable just to be overtaken by an old granny in a Corsa knowing she is probably in more comfort than me. AND in more peaceful conditions.
b) Unable to 'floor' the car anymore due to other road users true obsession with doing 29.2 mph nearly everywhere. Braking unnessessary or just general crap driving.
c) Having to take the long routes home cos my car is sooo low, yet I'm noticing these roads are getting 'third world' standard, and the constant BANG or THUD is doing my head in. Coupled with the fact the councils endless quest in creating a head on accident WILL happen one day, if they continue to ignore sunken drainage covers on the road. (They always seem to be just off centre of the middle of the road, or excessively far from the kerb).
Well there u go. I may just get a Corsa lol.

Unfortunately if I did want rid, she will be broken.
a) cos I don't want no one else driving it. Heck maybe only 2 other ppl drove my car in its lifetime.
b) too many good parts still on the car that will make good money.

Lol no....my life isn't that bad buddy, just find myself not using the car to its potential anymore and when I try there's always a derv right up my ass lol.
Looking to go R T*E*C*H due to the good reputation they have built up tbh. I totally trust Alex but will be nice to have a map customised on a duno (to get the best out of her).
After a think I WON'T cancel the order with Alex he has done a lot of work on the car and I trust him. Just INA have messed up and Issam knows this as he has emailed me an apology.
