Restored keyless entry to the car by successfully finding the blown fuse in central locking wiring...
Was annoying to have to use key to open door for 2 weeks coz I CBF looking for the fuse.
Reason I knew it was a blown fuse was because the remote would lock but not unlock.
are you the new bludger?Quote:

Also got a set of these off a mate for dirt cheap as he's moved onto a skyline.

Had a replica twin loop installed on my EK, sounds amazing. :)
However, the twin loop had a huge 4" cannon-style tip on it which just would not work on the EK. Was too long, too fat, so I replaced it with a smalled, angled tip. Looks awesome. :)

Fair enough... ive felt buckles like that when going 80+ had it happen to a oem toyota rim once and a 17" chinese rim another... it's only slight but ive felt an extra vibration.Quote:

C pillar brace installed
http://img.tapatalk.com/79d8caf7-848c-2290.jpg
Dis-agree, ive got set of buckled rims sitting in the garage, similar to whats shown, whilst drive at 100kmp/h vibrations is terrible! low - mid speed range its ok, noticeable but bearable to driveQuote:

How much and where from? Noticable difference?Quote:

With everything in rear end feels significantly stiffer.
pretty cheap nice buy man,22mm is a bit big dont you recon ? mainly for the track you would use those sizes? ive only got a GLI 22mm on the front and a EM1 stock rear sway bar 14mm i think on the rear and it oversteers if i push it, cant imagine how much oversteer you would be getting with all that work.Quote:

Dont those whiteline sway kits tear the subframe out of ek's?
nope, this is the revised version (1 piece bar runs from 1 side to the other) previous 2 piece kits would tear the subframe straight off!Quote:

certainly doesn't look like a one piece bar.
You have pillow ball mount each side (?) and bar in the middle, hex adjustments on either side.
if it is indeed pillow ball, would be @ least 5 pieces there, not one.
if not pillow ball, then looks like 3 piece bar.
hes talking about the brace dude
You need to learn to read m8 even a preschool child could work out that the pic you just referred to above is the Whiteline V1 2 piece mounting kit with a rear lower tie bar of which I used to illustrate their original design, the pics of the1 piece bar I installed is a few posts above...Quote:

Well if you quit assuming shit and actually started reading, (hence my original comment about you needing to learn to read) you would have come across my earlier post of the "1 piece bar" I installed to my car rather than inciting that I'm a dumbass who donest know the meaning of a 1 piece bar. Loose the attitude m8 and that goes for the rest of you jokers out there quit shit talking coz the jokes on you.Quote:

So a guy who experiences mechanical problems doesnt know whats wrong and comes to the forum for help, and eventually fixes the issues makes him a dubmassQuote:
