    Strut braces

    Rear one flexes if you lean onto it, and its purpose is to stop the entire body to flex, so would not trust my money going into one of those other than for aesthetic reasons :? Lower arms one i think is the only properly built one. But that's just my opinion :P

    Summer road tyre choices

    Just changed those due to wear. Absolutely amazing grip in wet and dry :grin: did not expect that from such a cheap tire. Now i have yokohama parada spec2 and they are better, but very soft compound (easy to wear out) and medium grip in wet, if not careful and push hard you will lose grip :grin:

    Strut braces

    I sincerely hate the omp's :grin: Too flimsy, do not offer a lot of structural rigidity, and do not recommend drilling into panels, as they tend to rust around. I got custom struts all around, welded ofc, and deffinetly improves overall handling :P Do recommend them, but not for daily use as...

    cruching sound 1.7

    Well.. pulleys are in good shape, tensioner also, belt is brand new. It's crunching like it is going to hell in low rev range, especially in 1st gear. In higher revs it doesn't sound like this. Idling it sounds just like a diesel engine

    1.7 Engine Rebuilds

    short answer to this topic is a big fat Nope! Mine happens to have problems on the vct side. No new parts are available anywhere, and even if you find them, you're better off buying another engine for that money :-(

    Fast road clutch

    I repeat, :-) I am on a 220mm from a focus, and will soon buy a stage 1. So that is a new, standard focus clutch plate, but has way more contact area than the skinny puma oem, and makes quite a difference in slip (doesn't slip as much) About cg motorsoprts clutches, a friend has one on a 1.6...

    Exhaust sound

    Did not replace manifold, fitted a larger pipe from cat to backbox (55mm) and a borla kit for the back. Most sweet liftoff pop ever heard, and the sound is killer now. Thanks a lot guys :grin:

    cruching sound 1.7

    My puma is making a crunchy, diesel sound whenever engine is on load. Meachanic said that the vct cam pully and vct solenoid have wears. I replaced them with other parts from another breaking puma and cannot make it dissapear. Has anyone ever encountered this problem? and what could be the fix...
