Quick question: My steering wheel vibrates at 80km and by 120km its shaking hella bad - its had a wheel alignment done but its still like this and its really annoying! Anyone know whats causing it?

Wheel Balance or your nuts are loose.

Cheers

Ken

Thanks Ken will do. I prolly would have used the RAC if you hadn't said that...so good timing.

The RAC will spend more time doing the

* rip in seat , mark on rear squab , dirty hoodlining type report which any schmuck can see by using there eyes.

The important , check front end play , compression or leakage test, check syncros and oil cond test are bypassed cos they are baffled by the lack of V and too many camshafts.

Well then they must have got it wrong then.

Have you hit any kerbs or suddenly heard a loud bang not long after the wheels were balanced ?

cheers

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
