KE30_KE35_KE55 Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 Any suggestions on a quick way to strip paint? Â Will take for ever to sand it off :) Â methylene chloride mixed with airplane jelly (so it doesn't evaporate quick) works the best, off the shelf paint stripper will work it is just weaker. cover up wear gloves it burns skin. could start to eat the tyre as well.

Falken_KE30 Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Posted February 2, 2009 was heading home, was about 2 mins out of Gtown near the bellbay roundabout, came off the roundabout at 40 (its a large circle lol) got some well spin in 2nd, so backed off (bub was car.... ) slowly put into 3rd and applied throttle, the f@$ker lit up the rears again and sent me into a 4 wheel slid straight over a ditch.. then ditch was near a meter drop then just flat grass.. drivers side went off first, and dug into the ground and nearly flipped us  Is all good now.. Good excuse to upgrade to better struts and brake :cool: Quote

Falken_KE30 Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Posted February 2, 2009 lol, Â if it was just me in car i prolly would have held it cause it would have been expected. Â But when me daughter is in the car i drive with care... so main priority was to keep her safe. so once i knew the car wasnt going to straighten, i dropped it back a gear and gave the clutch a kick to spin it around a bit more so if it did roll, or go on its side it wouldn't be on her side..

Falken_KE30 Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Posted February 2, 2009 Turns out the + camber is from a bent stub axle.. its bent so much its a real struggle to even move the rotor :P Â no wonder it pulled hard to the right and why the front right locked up on every right turn lol Quote
