  1. Or so I keep telling myself anyway.

    Not much to really say about it really.


    4 previous owners, 74k, cup suspension pack, climate pack.


    In my ownership, it's had my lower hub bearing maintainence mod applied, stage 1 remap, induction kit, and just this week had 4 pilot sport 3's fitted.


    Just before I bought it, it had a new aux kit, new squib, new hubs and carriers, new discs and pads all round.


    Really resisting the urge to go nuts with it like I did my LCR. (Big turbo, forged internals, Quaife, KW V3, which resulted in 360bhp)


    Only things I do want to do, are a Milltek, and some recaro's as Vikki finds the seats uncomfortable. Possibly some cooksports when the baby has grown up a bit, don't want shaken baby syndrome from going to the shops :smile:
     
  2. Looks good Dan. I'm interested to see what this hub bearing maintenance mod is! I can only assume it's something that allows you to grease the bearing?

    What induction kit did you go for?
     
  3. knowing him its a pair of tights stretched over the intake pipe!
     
  4. Haha. Does the job! Lol
     
  5. unless he could find a pair of trainer socks to use at his unit!!

    infact saying that i havent seen the enngine bay of this mobile he likes a good picture!
     
  6. Correct. Without any stripping of the front suspension. I have a few sets out in testing at the moment, but I'll be marketing it soon (as soon as the patent gets approved!)
    it was just a K+N filter I had lying around from an old turbo build that it was too small for. But I'm making up a nice heatshield too.
     
  7. is the hub fix working mate?
     
  8. Excellent. Will certainly be a worth while mod if it works. After all it's only the fact that they dry out that causes the problem.

    I'm still trying to decide what IK to go for. OCD kicks in and I don't wanna make the engine bay look cack lol.
     
  9. Well, it's working in the sense that it's allowing grease to be supplied to the bearing without stripping any suspension components. Whether it will enable the hub bearing service life to be increased is another story. The theory is there.
     
  10. its all in the execution mate i believe in you!!!!!!
