jordan are they flat or tapered wheels ?

yesterday in the MOT

just had some more black carbon fibre come today to finish off the driver pillar ..

sold my wheels for a small price today to ShaunGTR this afternoon so the fondmetals ive had for four years have gone to a new owner, was good to finally meet you and jordan mate

yeah scott i thought it was a scam at first when i got the email but double checked with barclays webchat and it turned out that i was entitled to a free personalised debit card as my card was expiring soon so why not and what a nice pic to have on there haha:)

haha ...not really for the celica but a nice touch either way .....and no thats not my number lol

few changes between 2012-2016

im gonna try the sealant route and if that doesnt work then new windscreen it is

has anybody had the roof seal on the driver side windscreen leak before ...mine did a few years ago then stopped but it seems to be doing it more now , ive looked and i was thinking for now could i use some clear sealant on the inside where its coming from and to also apply a bit on the outside until i get the windscreen replaced in a few month ... when it does leak it drips onto drivers seat ..

went for red bolts on mine but then with the storm blue/black red is the colour scheme for my engine bay

hmm not sure its seeable on my pic :

so that should be the correct measurement for the above wheel nuts too then

the problem is these are the spline locking type , i mean they are still steel either way

ok i did find somewhere where they said no more than 103 nm ..

can anybody help cheers

ok guys im having the new wheels fitted tomorrow and i just wanted to make sure what torque the following steel bolts should be nipped upto : i did speak to Rich_P and he said the standard values should be good but not sure on what the values should be ?

well they are here , i didnt realise they were so big , even to the fact that the carbon fibre sheet wasnt big enough doh!... they are black but im going to attempt to get some bigger sheets of carbon fibre on them and see how they look if i dont like how they look then i will change them to being sprayed in storm blue paint no biggie going to be refurbing the brakes tomorrow as it will be a much cooler day than a few days ago but i also recieved this silicon key cover which makes the key feel stronger .. this is also red not pink as thats the camera lol .. then on tuesday ive got my wheelman coming around to fit the new wheels ...

i bought my new one from ebay for the front for £9 i think they just wanted the reg plate, this was the one that after i took off the holder i heated , slightly bent and fixed to the bumper

ive bought the t1 , p1 and silo sealer and all have had good results , is the armour good stuff so far ?
