if your doing the 300mm brake upgrade,it dont fit with the 15" wheels.....
Z- Cause i don't want them to stand out massively, I just want it to be so you look at it, and you can tell there is something there, but you don't know untill you look again and then it stands out- I was thinking of doing them in yellow but i thought it might be overkill / look cack. And its only stickers if they don't work i can just take them off
Mart- Unless you shave the caliper carrier, from what i have read of here?

Should fit behind the 9 spokes with the carrier shaved.
Well I think its about time we revelaed the plan to whch we are working
So we all agree?
Oh and we still have a fuelling issue- its still running lean so im going to stick some injector cleaner through it see if there is anything wrong there.

u know the ka alloys look mean! i had them on mine for a real life photo
Quick update
My Car is more confused then the people in a mental institute
Thanks to hotrodspike we have decided that my car does between 0MPG and 43(ish) MPG
So it goes from good to bad to really really bad to catostrophicly(sp) bad.
But hey how it runs well, it drives well, its doing good on fuel and all is well in the world.
The Jack MAF will be fitted this weekend.
After I have got FITP out of the way i will start to get my brakes refurbed and painted (been quoted about £30 each for this). And find a second inlet manifold and engine cover and a strutbrace for upper front so watch out for some wanted adds.
On the inlet and the engine cover- Local breakers yard wants £55 for the pair of them- does this sound expensive?
And i think there may be a visit to the body shop, spotted some rust bubbles and stone chips, not to mention dints etc.
But first things first- main thing on my rader is the cambelt, the water pump, the iderler pulley, the aux belt and the rocker cover gasket, the leads and the plugs- costed up and its looking like £250 in parts alone i think?
