Got it compression tested put it wasn't turning over fast enough to get a proper reading so we suspected bad starter motor. So I took it out got it tested but all was good but the starter was already apart so it got all new bearings.Turned out it was just a bad earth

They wouldnt be my choice a wheel personally.. should be interesting to see how them FD lights turn out in the Fc bumper... any bits forsale man?
Enquired about getting this but missed out on it! Savage looking FC - good luck with the build!
I usually hate Eurolines but they suit FCs for some reason!

I was never mad on the eurolines meself but they just grew on me for the fc. Only bits I have is a cat back exhaust including decat
Cool car, becoming a bit iconic now, wouldn't mind one....

So I'm nearly there now I might have to look in to wide rear arches for them wheels :D
Awesome man, only seeing this now! Used to own this car and have to say I loved it. Glad to see you're giving it the attention it deserves, as at the time I had no real money to actually spend on it or make it look how I wanted. Would love a FC again in the future though!

ye im with axa, really cheap. you will 100% need over fenders
I tryied axa but they wouldn't insure me cause I'm under 25. I think I will need overfenders aswell I was on rhd Japan looking at them but its more expensive to ship them then to buy them
everyone is putting euro lines on FC,s these days. :confused:
I was trend setting back in the day:p
http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a114/C-Rex/Viennas/FCV4.jpg
You will need pretty wide overfenders alright here were 18x12j et-31 on my old FC... Yours would probably be on the same spec given the offset of mine versus yours being 13j

Very nice,love the shape of thoses. Best of luck
jaysus. haha. thatl be tough work to fit
your going to have to make overfenders for the rear i would say,
Those rear tyres are fucking insane wide too though get some mega stretch going and it wont look as scary wide.. To be fare a similar arch that was on mine should fit yours the spres would give the same offset
Richie if your selling the diffuser let me know:cool:
I messaged Bart to see if he can get me a pair of overfenders or I will order them meself it's working out about €350 for d-max 50mm overfenders it's gonna look fat from the back :D
Jesus, didn't realise just how wide those Euolines are. It will look mental once you've got the fenders sorted. Loving this FC more and more!

there the over fenders im using havent trial fitted them yet, my wheels would be a little smaller than yours at 18x11 -22 but if i were you id consider a smaller tyre and get some stretch for sure.
also have faith, these are something silly like 18x12s also..

I had those wheels years ago and I bought the tyres new for them and they didn't fill the rims der was so much stretch on the fuckers so 285 30 is abit to small even!! Dey look the tits on my s13 with the stock arch flared for them to fit!! A lot of flare that is!!
the wheel looks to be more than 50mm out from the arch,

That's what tires are on them now I will have to find someone who can stretch them on or I will try the lynx and lighting it haha
the wheel looks to be more than 50mm out from the arch,
They are about 70mm to the rim but I'm hoping with the stretched tire should be ok with 50mm
the wheel looks to be more than 50mm out from the arch,
bit a fiberglass modification be grand.... you get my message the other day.??????
Where did you get your ones man ?
from a bloke in the UK. 50 quid private sale.. spot on haha.. need from wings now.

What wheels have you on your FC now Rory?
if ya make the car fit the wheels your going to have one cool lookng fc,
Rory did ya get my message the other day? send us on pics of them mirrors if ya get a chance. Sound
should be cool if ya get her done,abd defo dont go for a smaller tire when inflated they dont even meet the edge of the rim, like i said go for a 305 or 315 next time,the 285 was atoo much of a stretch,, or thinking about it maybe its the sidewall is too low?
Been flat out in work so not much progress but nearly there (I thought :evil: )
