Purity14 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Mot failed on leaky stock shocks, so I thought id get a free upgrade in the process.. So spent today swapping out the old and in with the purple D2 shocks.. Not been for a drive yet, and I've left the hight exactly the same.. yes I'm boring.. Anyway read a guide on here about disconnectting the droplinks...? Why? I just unbolted the top and bottoms and manovered the shocks out avoiding them through the use of springcompressors and a long bar.. seemed like a lot of work to undo 15 year old droplinks that had fused together and a hex key just rounded the ends of them. Seemed simple to just go around them, job well done and finished with a kfc, took me and a friend 6 hours, we've done suspension before but not on a supra, fixed my leaky exhaust as well, so good to go now.. Gonna book an mot on Monday and when it passes does anyone recommend any north west detailers, I want a really good job doing.. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil-NA Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 If you dont mind traveling a bit for a detailer then their is a company in farnworth near Bolton called OCD and from what i have seen of his work its damn good. However i would still just take my car all the way down to Stonkins place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakey Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Finerdetails are based in Rochdale. Very good, do a search on detailing world, they had quite alot of threads on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Brendan, what are you doing to my old car? Gaz Eves has a mate called Cav who is a top detailer. I can get you a number if you want as he's based around Wigan. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus GTE Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Let me know what you think of the purple d2's. I have them on mine. I like them but the car came with them so it would be good to get a before and after perspective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
