thanks soksta, always a gentleman.

a mate and i checked all my drive shafts / cv's and they all have play up and down, side to side but no rotation..is this normal to all you gurus ? didnt seem un-normal

my steering wheel has a bout an inch n half of play on still park.. each side from nuetral position and it knocks in the hand on back n forward turn when static...

i have about 1.5 inch of clearance between my dump pipe and steering rack (wonder if the heat from dumpipe) causing premature wear on rack pinion uni joint ?

anyways thought id update yas all - feels like my car is running like 44psi allround on tyres lol

i think the whiteline centre roll kit and bump steer kit might solve all my problems..

My guess is that they are there, but completely worn out.
Group N mounts are great for inducing gearbox noise

I'll check to see if I've held onto all of my mounts, if so I can let you have my OEM ones until you can get some new mounts.

If you can wait a week or two, get them from RSD, they were quite cheap there!

Edit: slight problem, I can't see to find the box that had my mounts stored inside.
Hoping that it hasn't been binned accidentally >.<

haha, i am the only owner of this car...they are there..worn out isnt really the explanation...we are more so thinking...evaporated from intense alien rays - they are cracked and disintergrated...the actual box is moving inches causing all my cvs to make the car look like its wobbling where its actually not LOL - so new mount and bushes

Neil at maximum wobbled my front left tyre and the whole gearbox moved haha - im laughing as i have no other choice

causing severe tail shaft and engine movement which is why my handling is out...centre roll kit will be a nice addition none the less.

soksta, i appreciate your efforts mate i leave for work offshore again friday and its booked in for my return so no worrys there hard parked and no more possible damage ( on that note - no other damage found)

cheers all

PS - hats off to maximum again for their efforts...everyone elsewhere who drove the car didnt believed me and thought i was of the re-tard... and didnt even bother putting on the hoist to check. including the safety inspection at "below"

im not one to slander - Wilkinsons suspension - 1hr 15min wait..5minute test drive - "your good to go mate your car is just too low, harsh from coilovers and rims and your drive shafts are at wrong angle these taiwanese cars are no good around the track - just good for straight line and drifting"...

mmmm i must of been driving a ute or something..silly me

u get it ?

Maximum always give me the time of day.
