yes but mine isn't rotated and there is massive price difference between them
Wasn't aimed at you but does also depend where you source your parts from as my turbo and twisted kit was 2nd hand .. maz |

Give it a rest guys...
Not everyone wants to / can spend thousands of pounds on random stuff that may (or may not) make things better. Sometimes we have to make do with cheaper bits, or bits we already have, or second hand bits etc etc. Also, for a hobby (let's be honest, none of us are Carlos seinz), what's the harm in trying something cheaper to see if it works or not. If it doesn't work, you've learned something, and if it does work, then great, it works. Also, let's be clear... It's easy to be a cheque book tuner nowadays, with all the easy credit around, so almost everyone on this thread COULD get the absolute best ECU, with the best turbo, best exhaust blah blah by spending money (if they prioritised that way), so IMO it's all the more impressive if you can do it yourself without relying on a supplier selling you their vision (or more likely in many instances, what generates the most profit for them). |

Now wrong with 2nd hand bits . My complete engine was 2nd hand . 5 k or so miles. Turbo was off a sprint car . Brakes was 2nd hand . Headers 2nd hand . Front mount 2nd hand . What a cheap skate I am . Lol |
Cant see where the cost is in the rotated kits,
Would be far cheaper to get one fabbed up |

This is my personal motivation too. I don't use credit cards or loans for my hobbies or cars. If I can't afford it, I don't do it. All my toys are upgraded within my means by myself wherever I can. To be honest it's more fun and rewarding that way. I'd always do whatever I could myself, so long as it's not eating into valuable family time. I have no problem with second hand parts, if they suit my needs and budget. Job done! |
I don’t do the whole credit card or loan thing either my car and everything on it is paid for outright best of ya to be imo |

well its a work in progress ,, meaning it works and I drive it until a part needs upgrading ,, got a rotated kit , got a closed deck 2.1 , got a spare 6 speed , got a twin plate waiting ,, anything else I need laying around lol,, try buying gobstopper billet uprights and subframes new as there worth more than your car and thats only a couple of the parts iv got for my track build so buying expensive parts isn't a problem when there needed
At what point do you "need" to uprgade to Gobstopper billet uprights or subframe tho ? |

Raggy and Smurfy, Seriously you two, give it a rest. Nobody on here has to justify themselves to you (or anyone else) if you don’t believe what Domino says, that is fine, just give it a rest, as it’s your constant badgering that IS getting boring :thumb: |
Had plenty to say about me and bob when the **** hit the fan its a forum that’s the way it is |
It is a forum and everyone is free to speak their mind, but let's try not make it personal chaps. Everyone is allowed their own choices and opinions and shouldn't get attacked over their own likes and decisions like Domino has. Domino has always been a very friendly and helpful member.
Raggy, I like you and we've always got on just fine. Think you're a nice bloke. smurfy, I've found your posts on most threads now to be getting more aggressive and pointed towards other member's. You're obviously allowed your own opinion but feel it's your way or no way and seem to be purposely rubbing people the wrong way. I've had to step away from threads where you've been pushing things too far unnecessarily. Just give people some space and courtesy please. I'm sure you're a nice chap too and I don't have issue with you and don't wish to start an argument. We all need to get along. |
Cough! Hence I bother less with threads nowadays too, too many people feel like their better than the other, know more, have more, etc etc. bpr you've hit the nail on the head, I just can't be bothered so I choose my threads wisely. half the time I'm just sat here laughing at some people's reply's |
Sad but true Busta.
The issue is there are a lot of genuine members on here with good quality real world experience and respectful attitudes such as yourself, who get turned away from this place as I too have sometimes when things get unnecessarily nasty. |

I've always done it this way with everything I buy from shopping, household, electrical etc etc as I'm the type of person when I get something I think, wish I'd of bought that instead etc looool. |

Theres always more than 1 way of doing something, especially if u want to do it on budget or avoid buying parts u been told u dont need. Far too many snowflakes spreading mis information. The real experts are too nice not to slay these fools publicly and therefor a yes / no question becomes a debate. However with the amount of idiots and folk who would still try disagree with facts you cant blame them as they would be forever doing that and never get anything else done. |

Your butthurt as i says ur sub 1k meisters were chinatown BS same as my cheapo BCs. Certainly not "proper" suspension by any means. Just cheap crap like most of the budget stuff. Domino is too because his inferior ECU is holding his car back and the wrc parts he wipes the dust off once a month could have bought one to have it running better and safer. |

Domino is too because his inferiour ECU is holding his car back and the wrc parts he wipes the dust off once a month could have bought one to have it running better and safer. People like you are the reason this site is going down the pan. Fact. You can't comment on my suspension, my setup and my choices. Fact. Stop with the aggressive posts on all members. It's not necessary. Calm your content down for the sake of everyone else. |
