Nice stuff Dan

Evening all!

Anyone care to help, tell me about subframe bushes? I have clunks that have been there since I bought the car, I'm narrowing it down to the tailshaft/diff area, or possibly subframe bushes, based on what I've read.

How many bushes are there? Where are they, what is required to change them?

the bushes that hold the subframe to the body? or the bushes that hold the various suspension arms/diff onto the subframe?

could also be the tie rods or rack ends of the hicas setup. If its the subframe bushes themselves you'll next an oxy and a hacksaw

Ok, well I'll start with the easiest options first I guess.

Would the bushes where the arms etc join the subframe be the easiest place to start out of those options?

get under the back with a long screw driver or pry bar and try see what moves around too much, thats the best way to start looking, otherwise you just start throwing money away on things that don't need doing yet.

Morning Mangs,

Boring weekend was boring. Wanted to wash the car but it wouldn't stop f**king raining. Stupid weather.

Solution to being bored: GT5.

End.

Mate doesn't have a PS3 and Lee would throw a shitfit if I tried to take the PS3 away lol. Have to wait until my mate sees the light and decides he needs a PS3

I'll trade you a PS3 for your sister. I'll even throw in a copy of GT5 ;)

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
