if the rust is in an obvious spot then sanding, rust protecting, then painting is probably best. If rust is not so obvious like under boot or bonnet, or in a door somewhere, just spray a petrol based "anti-rust" on the rust spots to prevent further spread"

just followed the instructions on here. I think its worked. I only did one seat, will take her for a spin to make sure its done properly before I do other seat, then other car. great info.

can you put a performance chip in a car on gas? I have heard that you can't. I don't know if this is true or not though.

this thread is so comical. to start off with its an easy thing to do. Secondly all you audio freaks make it sound so much more complicated than it has to be. I have a switch for subby. cost me 2 bucks. got audio guys at JB HiFi to fit it for free. its just a circuit breaker. got one for my GPS...

if you sound proof the boot properly the spoiler shouldn't be an issue. its like when ppl say their number plates rattle. i used a healthy combo of expanda foam and sound deadening sheets inside the boot and i only get very small vibrations now with very high volume (which i could probably get...

i didn't think camber was adjustable in the VN/VP without getting aftermarket parts.

rear suspension still effects steering as it allows the tail of the car to move around and hence makes the front end harder to control. gonna get the bushes i mentioned changed and put better tyres. then i'll write back to this thread to tell everyone how it feels.

had coils, shocks and strut bearing plates changed today. firmer ride, however steering is still stuffed. I have been advised that is is most likely to be the bushes around the lower control arm, radius rod, upper and lower trailing arms, and sway bar. A few replacement bushes should do the...

if you are not sure what the problem is, it will only cost you a whole 14 bucks to get pedders to hoist the car up and check it over. They'll let you know of any other issues too. I know it probably sounds like I work for them or something but it is a pretty sweet deal. It doesn't mean you have...

i am getting my coils and shocks changed in a couple of days. One thing that I think is important is the strut mounting/bearing plates. I am gonna be replacing these with adjustable ones (camber). Other things to think about are the sway bar, panhard rod, all the bushes and a good set of tyres...

oxygen sensor....maybe??? alot of mechanics don't pick up on this. I could be anything though.

they were friends. friends usually do things on a trust basis. although lesson to be learnt.

don't worry bout law or cops. they will be a burden to the process of getting your car back. I say confront your "friend" civilly and discuss. Sort the differences out. no violence required. you never know, may even be a simple misunderstanding in the middle of all this hype. chances are, you'll...

i don't know much about other states legislation, but in victoria the restrictions all have loopholes, or room for negotiation. powerfull vehicles= letter from employer stating the vehicle is needed for employment to drive a manual whilst on auto license= as previously mentioned, "driver...

lets just say you want a good oxygen to fuel mix right? if ur oxygen sensor is screwed, then i guess ur not getting that optimal mix so your car won't run the way it should. my advice...change the sensor!
