wtf :| ?

WTF of my saying?or?

[jbird]

I was just trying to show the offset to the other member,and that was my machanic doing the job and they are rays nuts,so assume it will be all right,but anyone can correct me if I'm wrong,thanks

Yeah I wasn't complaining about the photo, I like CE28N's.

Just because they are Rays nuts doesn't mean they won't get stripped. Aluminium no matter what grade T6/cold forged whatever is 'soft' compared to proper steel nuts and strip a lot easier.

Sorry I should have been more clear. What I'm saying is it isn't a flat out "no you can't use a rattle gun" - if it's set to the lowest level of torque it should be 'ok' and your mechanic finished tightening them with a torque wrench set to the correct specs. If this procedure was followed then yeah.

If it's done too tight, the nuts might fuse onto the studs or become stripped

Hey guys anyone running on tein flex if so what settings are you guys running on in terms of clicks ( eg, 10clicks counter clockwise for rear)? cause right now my teins are sooo stiff a small bump on the ground feels like i ran over a cow. also noob questions do i need the car jacked up to change the 'clicks' or cna i just pop the hood and change that top bolt with a spanner or watever for the front settings

clicks are very personal, start from the middle and play around till you are happy.

No need to jack car to adjust, just pop the bonnet and hatch.

I hate mechanics who use rattle gun to undo aftermarket lock nuts. They should overcome their laziness.

hey guys for the tein flex the front suspension wont click at all any particular reason for this? even with the key it wont turn left or right. please not let it be bad news. the rear ones were fine. also there is a bit of oil on the damper. is it time for repair or something?

my clutch is getting fitted end of this week, going to throw in a service while im there. excited already to have her rolling again!

has anyone here fitted a harness bar to their cars? ive found one from NRG that seems to be a good one

im trying to find out if i need to cut anything to make it fit - which i dont want to do

[Mugen_B16B]

u shouldnt need to cut nothin, its fit onto the b pillar

imo waste of money, u lose the easy access to the back seats, vision in the rear mirrors
