How do you find the Falkens on the back? Much noisy?

they're good.

no noise that i know of, but tbh this car is pretty loud so yea, take from that what you will.

tbh if they made pilot sport 4 in a size i could use on the back of this car id swap tomorrow. pilot sport 4 is the best tyre ive ever had by a long long margin.

Great work. 

 

The intercooler hanging out the front has always been my least favorite thing about this car, and now you have fixed that with something that matches the look of the flares and rear spoiler. 

 

 

I shall give you a crisp high five as a reward

As far as english wheels go the machinery house ones are pretty rubbish.

But if its doing what you want then that's all you can ask for yeah? 

You might find if you start to use more pressure they bend pretty quick

The ones we have at work for wheeling guards/doorskins/roofs/whatever are much sturdier. Most are cast iron and virtually unmovable or like ours and fabricated from some serious thick plate or c channel . And have wider planishing wheels . 3" ish where the metal master ones are a lot thinner

Greetings fine sir, 

 

Probably a dumb question, but do you run clamps on the push lock fittings? I originally didn't when I first started playing with push lock stuff but I do now...

There are a few options like a single use crimp style or these clip type ones I have as snipped below..

yea i never have in the past but im about to start.

im fucked if i know why that hose let go. when i pulled it off the car and looked at what had happened the hose was like the next size up?

like it just slid on and off the fitting like it wasn't supposed to be for that size fitting?

it was the fucking hose that had been there for years and all of a sudden it grew by like 3mm in dia.

fucked if i know? i did arsehole any other of the same type of hose that i had on the car and replace it.

Guessing it was oil rated hose? ive seen hose swell before due to not being used with the right liquids etc
