Discovered my 008 valve was sticking shut a bit after servicing it last week so took it apart again and whacked a load more grease in it.

I'm thinking of fitting one of these. How much of a difference does it make?

A lot I fitted a 25mm Eibach one and my car grips the road on the bend's much better. it'll be even better still when I get around to fitting my coilie's. Had em a year still not fitted yet:rolleyes:.

Still debating the idea of a P-Flo or S2000 induction system

What a very big diffrence, the car feels much tighter going into corners! One thing i will say dont tackle the job yourself, get an extra pair of hands! It took me just over 2 1/2hours fitting it,as it's heavy bit of kit (doing it on my driveway with axle stands[:@]) but its worth it in the end,mate.

Just given the brembo's a lick of laquor while I was hunting for the creaking noise which I believe is drop link or roll bat related !

Only quick spray will do them fully when the weather is better

Fixed the rear washer pipe under the air box. Shouldn't come apart again as I've taped it up and cable tied it ;)
Fitted new tail light bulbs. Run tap and die over threads of fittings/screws as previous owner/fitter cross threaded 5 out of 6 :rolleyes:

Haha you are joking right?
It takes half hour tops, easiest and one of the best mods to do.
