Yeah it's had a new fuel filter. Could it possibly be the fuel pump as I have a spare one of those and was going to swap them over to see if there's any difference?

Yeah I know which part the back box is, i've heard other diesels with cherry bombs fitted and they've sounded awful if i'm honest but each to their own I suppose. If you want an even better sound/more power i'd suggest getting a good induction kit/air box & a remap as diesels always respond well...

I don't think it'd be worth it tbh, would still have the diesel tractor sound only louder, and it might be more like a smoke bomb than a cherry bomb

I'll add onto this instead of making a new thread, but today it wouldn't start at all. It would turn over, but just wouldn't fire up. As it had been raining overnight and was a bit misty I did what I used last time it refused to start, squirted some wd40 into the spark plug ports and onto the...

When you said set them to max I thought you meant adjusting them like adjustable top mounts or something, my mistake. I'll try that idea though, and see how it goes, thanks :)

Got annoyed with it as it was refusing to start again :( Kind of reminiscent of this haha.. But couldn't be angry at it for long, so wigtd: give it a wash and buy it some presents

Mine's about 50-55mm on stock (front) shocks and drives completely fine, but yes you will need an adjustable panhard rod

I won't really be able to set them to anything, but I suppose the lower you go the more natural camber you get anyway so i'll just have to see how it turns out

They don't have camber adjustable top mounts though, or do you mean, just see how much camber they get naturally after they're fitted etc?

Coilovers, proper micra ones though, not polo & corsa ones

That sounds quite good actually, I suppose a few mm difference in where the strut hole is drilled can make a significant difference to the amount of camber you can get. I'm looking to go more down the stance route of things tbh. My wheels are going to poke out a little and I want to lower it...

Have you slotted the top strut hole on yours? That's what a few people say but it's actually the amount of toe change that comes with negative camber (unless you have it all re-aligned) that eats through tyres

I didn't really want to do that after some horror stories i've heard, one of which happened to the March under a previous owner Yeah i've read they only go to 1.75°, but was unsure how much that would actually be/difference it would make

I've tried a few things already but I don't want to be too rough with it as if I break/crack it then there's no finding another one. Time for some cable tie engineering I think :)

Yeah, i've replaced all the worn/loose clips with new ones but it hasn't fixed it. I think it's the square holes on the car which the clips go into that have worn away so the clips aren't staying in tight enough. I found so many things on the G# were bodged/broken by previous owners when I got it

Ah so it does have the same as mine then haha! sorry, I thought it looked different. Maybe mine have just worn away a bit or something and that's what's stopping it from staying on tight

Thanks Joe! It does look slightly different to my grill as the bits with the holes in don't stick out as far on mine and I don't have anything right on the ends to fit into the holes on the wings/under the headlights. I guess i'll have to break out the cable ties :P

[I've used the search but still can't find a definite answer to this] Has anyone used Eibach camber bolts/or still using them, and are they any good/make much difference to the handling/road feel as i've heard mixed reviews? And are they safe/as strong as the standard hub bolts? Also has anyone...

Yeah I noticed there was a small hole on each side under the lights, but there's no clips on my grill to match up with them. Unless my grill is slightly different to other pre-face ones.. Okay, that'd be a great help. Thank you! :)

Yeah everything else is straight, as is the grill. I think it might be the square holes the clip go into have worn away a little so they're not staying in tight enough I think that's the only solution, i'll just use some cable ties on the inside of the grill to hold it on :P
