BAH IT WAS MY IDEAL LONG BEFORE ANY OF U PUPPIES

I DID THIS THIS WITH 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS :P

ps that speed racer looks shieeet!!

Erin I'm pretty sure people have been meeting up and cruising to drive-in's long before Fast and Furious came out :P

I'm watching the trailer now, doesn't really seem that interesting. I can also see quite a few of us nit-picking the movie about faults and things that aren't realistic with the cars :(

it was myyyy idea!! lol but gepps cross drive ins is abit bumpy low cars will definately scrape... i went to sus it out in my commy and it still scraped my front bar -,-" no good...

i get my car in there all the time no worries, i swing very wide and come in n out at 45 degrees, my cars like 2mm higher than my wallet (good for keeping money in there and dumped into repairs) at the front bar on flat ground. well say the front is 12mm-14mm off the ground. rest of the car is reasonably high though. also i make sure im last to leave, saves wasting petrol inline and makes sure i got plenty of room when leaving. also ill bring planks or bricks or something if it scares ya

i think my bro gets his in aswell which is lower ill chat to him and make sure he can and do some measurements for ya

it was a cartoon man was it ment to be realistic? i mean they were jumping over cars n such. matrix people made it so there could be 360 cam spins on the drifting ;) also think of it this way the kids there that are getting into cars will see yours there thus boosting your car value in say 10years time :D i know i decided on getting a skyline at around the 12years old mark. also a certain car jump in gone n 60seconds rings a bell. although everything else in that movie was reasonable, except the chopper chase outrunning. airport is more traditional way of losing a choper

and a big cheers to the people that mentioned techno man ive been looking for that cartoon a fair bit on the net but i forgot what it was called. that used to be my fav back in the day.

if you guys wanna organise another night for a diff movie feel free. good luck getting everyone to agree on a movie though :P batman isnt that far away could possibly be playing same night so could have a crack at that 1. i just thought a movie bout cars would be cool worse comes to worse just sit around and talk cars instead of watching it

I'll be on dayshift that week so i could just "chop chop chop chop chop chop" down there, and with a sixer of teds maybe........

Was a great cartoon back in the day, prob one of the best! Somethings telling me the Aristo will be the most comfy seat in the drivein!! Not too mention my electronic heater that doesn't need a car to be running for it to get warm, I can see a line up to come sit in the Aristo..... :)

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      By Duncan · Posted

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
