yeah id recomend it,affter all look at all the work you've done so far would be that one thing that anoys you if you didnt get it fixed kinda thing,replace the arm,cant rember if they have a tie rod arm as well? if your not shure replace it too and go from there,if i was doing it at work would probe...

yeah the crude trick works and yes us panelshops do it when rig is in use with other cars ect,center to center would be a good base point,we do it all the time and normaly 1-2mm out when they go for wheel alignment but if you want to work under the car mesure from something in the rear say a hole in...

ok turbocab i can see what the problem is now and yes your bottom arm is bent,qustion,affter the accident did you replace it? you may even find that it could be a combo of bent shock and bottom arm,im a panelbeater here in nz so a bit far away to come help ya out,but id recomend now is if possible c...

the one your describing i think is the o2 sensor?? but dont hold me to that,in any case if you have one missing yes the car wont run right anyway.

re your bottom arm,mesure from the center of the rear wheel to the center of the front wheel,this will tell you whats going on with the wheel base,im shure some one on here will read this and might mesuere theres to see what it should be,on my mini im useing a ae92 toyota coroola steering rack end,t...

hi there,re your problem with the front bumper,one is it sitting int the right place? why i ask is one side loks like i covers the wheel more than the other,also the car looks like its sitting to high at the front too,what id do from here is one make shure 100%that bumper is in correct place,then fr...

[quote]so t2 stock bore is 66mm? yes 66mm is correct bore size for both t1,t2 cityturbos. and if i hone the walls i can still run 66mm rings??? yes should be no problem now are all the f10a rings used on the t2 pistons? suzuki fa10 are the cheapst/easyst way to do it many have used them with no prob...

with the suzuki fa-10 piston rings youll need to get the pistons machined so suit the new rings,this cost me at trade price $25each,,if its glazed a good hone out should sort it,as in my pervious post someone said about blocks out of round,mine was out of round on no 3 but once it was honed out it w...

hi,as i have just gone down this road not long ago,and very painfuly i might add heres my 2c worth,my car did same thing head gastket blw so i replaced it got 400km out of it then went again,so had head surfaced,that worked but was slightly warped,with that said was within tolrance,worked well for a...

cost to get pistons machined to suit will cost anywhere between $20-$60 each but ill warn ya id HIGHLY RECOMMEND you get them crack tested before affter they are done,if you look around at my posts with pics that is what can happen if you don't small crack they break up and engine dont go i been the...
