4-2-1
Group N 3" Straight Thru
Ram Induction
Brand new set of speedlines, month old (£600) brand new

Only thing is, or should i say only thing's wrong

when driving the red light for alaram is always on, and when lockin the car and return to it within 5 mins the hazzard are goin raaj?!?!

Engine managment light is on, but i think it might be something to do with no cat or no lamba sensor

Strut top bearings need replace

Can anyone help with how to fix these and how much bearings would cost to get fixed

Thanks alot =)

strut top bearings are 7 odd quid each from euro car parts,new topmounts 9 each,quite easy to fit,if you have no prob removing struts....and depending on what springs your running..some spring compressors...:D
