Rather expensive. I'm 19, could insure a sport for 600£.. Probably less now as that was a quote from when I was 18

Wait off man, imports look soooo much better
Nah, I don't mind owning a UKDM..
I like them. -

Martyn's one will be up for sale soon. What's your budget?
Cant insure a jdm, elephant won't insure an import. Must be a Ukdm

Update, it actually only does it when accelerating right and accelerating straight (slightly)...?
Drive shaft problem?
-
It happens when accelerating (putting the foot down a little) now and even more so when going round a large round about and applying the accelerator.
Any ideas at all? Gonna get a video shortly if no one knows

How have you spent that much on it?!
It all adds up
. For sale really soon, bursting for an integra and there's a good one up for sale in my price range that's reasonably close.. thinking of putting deposit down!

Might sound really stupid, but seriously, check your wheel bolts
not stupid, had this and that sorted it..
I also had a knock/clunk when breaking at a slow speed when I had a ****ed wheel bearing.
-
pointless unless you have boost or running individual throttle bodies
-
Can you feel it in the steering too?
-
wheel bearing has just been done on this side

Hi, got grinding from brake disc.
Took wheel off, caliper is fouling the disc.
How do I sort this?
The bit either side of the pad it where the caliper fouls the disc.

mprobs spent about £500 on the engine not had her mapped yet so don't know bhp yet
What work have you had done?

Could you get a closer up picture? Body shop might be able to do a smart repair

im pretty sure i have this same issue. front right seems to make a clunk going slow over speed bumps.
would love to know what it is.
im in for a service at the weekend so if they shed any light on it i'll let you know!
Going over bumps is different, that's the suspension top mounts that are gone for you

what tools are needed?
They are torx screws

Rear or front?A. Don't turn right, only go left.
B. It's liable to be a bush or ball joint, jack the car and shake the wheel.
I've recently replaced front bottom ball joint, track rod end and wheel bearing not because of the issue I'm having now.

It's kinda like a clunk noise too hmmm, no idea how to describe it :/

Hi,
When turning right or accelerating hard I'm getting this weird juddering come from the rear left of the car. I can't describe it properly, it's like the wheel wants to come off but it isn't.. Wheels nuts are tight. Happens when going a bit quick round right bends too, right ones like round abouts.
It's quite a horrible noise, I've no idea what it is. Sounds like a wheel bearing when it happens?
Any ideas ??

Not just the ratios but the lightened body panels too

Pedal box goes anytime between 60 and 100k I'm sure.

Lupo is quite a bit quicker than the polo

Jacked up both sides and nothing is loose, everything is tight.
Kinda feels like it's understeering.. plenty of tread though.
What I have noticed is that the drivers tyre inner edge is wearing significantly.. The passenger side is fine. There is quite a lot of negative camber on the drivers side, I've tried to fix it by pulling the strut towards me before tightening suspension bolts but there is still quite a lot. I'm gonna grab pictures of the camber and the wear just now.
I've read that the lower control arm bushes could cause significant wear and could be causing this noise? Is that right? How will I test?
and a comparison of the other side
