My new car - name TBA

more lows? back down too?

So yeah, spent a few hours over at Alex's again tonight and whacked the fronts down all the way and also removed the rear cups!





I'll get some better shots when it's light and stuff!

Only one real problem so far and that is that one of the rear tyres is a different brand to all the others and a bit wider so it's rubbing like an absolute mother - new tyre is being ordered right now though, so all is good!

Yes mate, all the way!

good stuff, no chance of spacing the rear abit then if its already scrubbing?

time for stretch if ever there was one.

The other side had plenty of room, probably enough for 5mm or so, and i've ordered that tyre again so it should be fine! getting it all fitted on Saturday morning so if all's good it should be sweet by the afternoon.

Even though it's rubbing badly on left turns and bumps, i hit loads on the way home and there's no damage, just that awful noise!

I was thinking much the same.

Jimmy why were you running two different tyre sizes on the same axle? School boy error there!

They weren't different sizes, they were different brands and one had a slightly thicker sidewalk which rubbed. The other side is fine though!

I slightly better shot of the rear:

No your schoolboy eror for not realising different brands are difference sizes

I read his thing about it being a "different size" so I assumed he meant tyre size. My bad!

Looking really nice Jimbo. I'll get a few snaps of this tonight if you want.

he isnt attending I dont think dude, office fitting I think.

Indeed, I shall not be attending tonight, I have important business based duties to see to.

Got a new tyre sorted this morning, no rubbing at all now. Happy days.

You're missing out the massive arch-gap located to the left of the picture above...
Shame it was a washout boys. But the cars looked spot on!
And the fact that both of your cars have progressed further than mine means some serious work to be done.

To the bat-copter!

ah, you mean this bad boy:

Looks really tidy this Jim, not usually a fan of E81s but everything works on this one.

Cheers man!

typically, now it's pretty much how I wanted it, i having a "hmm, am i bored of this" day... it will pass though!

Not much of an update, but had some tinted plates made up this week, the front is pretty much the same colour of the car now haha.





Jay has told me that my wheels are going to be painted in May whether I agree or not so I better get looking for that perfect shade of purple!
