To Jamie[ The boy] WIM OOF MEET ?
« on: 19 July 2009, 21:02:16 »
Jamie, are there any future plans for another WIM open day, as i am sure that there are a few new members, and older ones come to mention it that would benifit from the experiance of the omega master looking over their pride and joy. Hope that something can be arranged in the next few months. For those that are not aware Tony bones is the man to see if your rubbing your front tyres out on the inner edge,  you will not be disapointed belive me. Gary.

The last one was well worth going to.

Even considering the distance I went to it!

I'll be travelling from 18 miles west of Swansea. I've had enough of the local so called "experts".
 
Firts I need to sorted the timing on my recently replaced injection pump (I hope it's just the timing !) and either sourced some uprated standard height front springs or a complete set of 30mm lowered.
Prefer to keep it standard height but really having difficulty finding anything up-rated.
Nearest I've got is a company that will make a set, but they need the originals to develop them.
A lowered mig does look good and handles well tho' :y

Last time was a good overview on geometry, along with raffle tickets for some to have their cars looked at / setup free.

unfortunately 90% of the cars couldnt be worked on due to dodgy wishbone bushes.

I went back the next day and had our car set up properly, new set of tyres and the aircon regassed.

Great guys down there, really sort out any tyre wear issues, and improve the car's handling.

Was a good day out.

If you look at the WIM web site you can see some pics of the last open day there, great fun had by all. I missed the line up of cars as i had to get back to go out that evening but lets see if we can get a huge turn out if it can be arranged. Over to you Jamie.fingers crossed. :y

Just got mine done at WIM on Friday the 17th July and to put it simply - the pleasure of driving is back. The vechicle handles beautifully.  :y :y

Great work WIM :y

Tony does not have to advertise really as the best form of it is word of mouth, If your reading this at any time tony keep up the good work mate. :y
