you may need front adjustable camber arms, depending on how low you go, the stok rears should do enough adjustment unless your planning to deck it. ive got 20mm on the rear and its ok and around 35 to 40 on the front and taht seems ok, maybe a little too much neg for the road. need to get it set up again. make sure you buy 300zx ones not skyline ones, i cant remeber the ins and outs of it but there are issues there

vodafone suck!
:gun_bandana: i renewed my contract early this year, and got a nice shiny new motorola defy. the one advertised at the bullet and bomb proof water proof all singing all dancing smart phone. after two weeks its broke, the speaker shit the bed. not impressive for something billed as indestructable. anyways i called vodafone explained how i wasnt impressed to be further unimpressed, by the response youve had the phone over 7 days and because of that you cannot change it, we can fix it via your insurance, which will cost you £20. and will take 5 to 7 working days. i wasnt very happy and expalined my frustration, i was then told to go into my local store who would simply swap it for a brand new one for me. i excepted this and went to town. i was then told they didnt do that had exactly the same conversation and after about an hour i ended up walking away with my phone being sent off for repair under manufactuers defect(its a known defect). two weeks later i got the phone back. no charges, thank god that was all sorted. two weeks later i woke up my alarm clock haddnt gone off in the morning on my fully charged phone, fortunatly i wasnt late for work, the phone had decharged itself over night. so i charged it up that morning, and guess what it was flat by midday, and the battery was so hot i could feel it through my black jeans in full sunlight, i popped the battery out and it was HOT! hot hot. this stoke me as bad. so back on the phone, really annoyed now, and really not wanting the phone anymore, simular conversation and the round the houses, i demanded to talk to a manager was on hold for about 20 minutes before i get one, who esentially tells me the same youve had the phone more than 7 days we cant exchange iot its policy. as you can imagine i told her what i thought of policy and wanted to know what she was going to do, she sent me a battery. its been ok since that. anyways going through my acounts this morning and i find a phone bill for £160 :ohmy: i call up, usual on hold for ages buisness. the guy i speak to explains my old numbers went cancelled properly and i would be charged for another month as it takes 30 days to cancel. (er no i will not) and that i had been charged for two months at once because of the new system i had bveen put onto. i let vented my anger at him, they have refunded the extra charge and cancelled the other contracts with immediate effect. if it wasnt for me checking my bank account i wouldnt have noticed. im glad that they have "sorted" it out now. but christ how many cock ups and how much bad customer service can you get from one company in three months. i wont be renewing with them in 18 months time!!!!!!! its the way they speak to you, as if they are the goverment and they wont budge on what is their policy. the service ive recieved in general has been shite! and they will be reciving a proper letter of complaint.

misfire again.
i do something although im not sure how safe it is...... lol prob not very. simply work back through the engine with it running, and disconnect each plug, by lifting the coilpack connection, or injector connector. when or if the engine note changes you know that one is working. when you reach one where no difference is heard tahts the cylider that isnt firing. make sure to do a compression test aswel. does your exhaust run bank to pipe with no h or x pipe? if there is a cross then ou wouldnt be able to rely on the exhaust.

how fast do you reckon
180 can be achived with a pretty much stock car, the final drive ratio and therefore ultimate top speed iis around 210 I dont think many would hit that though. Top speed is irrelivant in any case.
