Recently i have replaced my digital clock with an aftermarket gauge, i used the 12v ignition and possibly earth cable from the clock to power the gauge, just recently i have noticed my interior light does not work and odometer resets every time the ignition is switched on and off. Could this be due to using wrong connections ? Thanks

Problem solved !

I also removed the oil catch tank, everything was placed back correctly and tightened, both pipes were also put back correctly

I have not long since resprayed certain parts in the engine bay, i removed the hks filter i have on my jspec N/A and when i put it back together i noticed that the sponge filter does not sit flush around the base, the car vibrates slightly on idle and upto 1500-2000rpm, could this be the car is taking in to much air due to it not sitting correctly ? It also idles slightly higher than usual

After looking round for some new tyres, a friend mentioned that to make sure i get the correct size i also need to try and get the correct rolling radius as stock tyres if possible ? As in an earlier topic i will be running 18x8.5j for my fronts, can anyone help me out as regards this radius and size etc
-
ahhh, thats understandable
-
Thanks, just theres a guy selling some 255/35/18 so could save me money if these could fit

What would be the reasonable size tyre to fit my front 8.5j x 18 alloys Rears 265/35/18 x 9.5J Fronts ???/35/18 x8.5J

-
As it is my birthday soon id thought i would treat myself to a new set of alloys for the supra, ive orded 2x18" rota gtr (8.5j) and 2x18" (9.5j) Here is what they look like
-
Going have to get the bearing changed as its always made a werring noise from when i bought the car and take it from there
-
No specific hot spots on the tyres, the disc is just as warm as the opposite side, wen the wheel is on and the car is in gear the wheel wobbles, a friend said this could be my wheel bearing ?? I do get a werring noise wen i make left turns amd goes wen i turn right
-
Thanks alot gaz
-
The creeking is when i am driving, it starts of with a quiet creek then progressively gets louder over a short time, do you think i should let a garage check before i go chucking money at it ?
-
I will try that, if the the disc rotates fine and there is no wobble on the caliper, any ideas what the creeking could be wen the wheel is rotated
-
There is nothing securing the disc to the hub, never was since ive owned the car, yeah the disc has a slight bit of play
-
Hey guys, got a bit of a problem i thought i solved, the drivers rear side brakes or wheel makes a creek noise, i also noticed when i taken my wheel off that my caliper tends to wobble in and out wen the the disc is rotating, there are crappy jspec calipers, any ideas ?
-
Sorted it, as i was freeing up the runners i noticed a stone was lodged between the pads and disc, problem solved thanks
-
Good point, il check the pads, caliper and back plate, anything else i should check ?
