The car needed a new drivers door due to minor damage at the edge. A new door is now on it and to be honest I cant even tell its a different door.

Customs was a complete pissflap and just about everything went wrong! :rolleyes:

I saw this just in when I got to the port yesterday and im in love, it just looks so awesome!!

Anyway got the car, and as usual it started first go. Checked all the levels and everything was perfect

I had gotten it registered so put the plates in the window and off I went!

It needs tracking but otherwise seems spot on. The suspension is seriously solid, front and back and the clutch is the closest thing to a foot operated light switch i've come across!! :D

I got it home, and lowered it straight away at the front. It's maybe a fraction too low so I reckon 15/20mm will sort it out, just for getting it in the driveway...

So first impressions its awesome! I have to say too, I love the wheels! SO does she of course, lol, thats the most important thing! It needs tyres so it get some stretch and spacers all round and it will finish it off for now. It's also going to be mapped this weekend or next too.

Although they arent the cheapest, I have a Works Bell snap off kit with a lock in my car so we got another for hers.

For her birthday I bought her a Keys Racing dished suede wheel and matching gear knob. Still waiting for those; can't wait to see them in the car!

That's kind of it for now, She got a full bucket seat but it's for sale now, I dont think it will suit. The cage to hold the radio was knicked in transit :rolleyes: so she needs one of those to get the radio in...

No, selling the other black so called Bride. The seat in the car was to be the passenger, but its staying for now anyway! Stretch and spacers and that will be it for now!

Fredericks Balls

Nah, I had it for sale for about a year and a half and not one call. So I launched it over a roundabout and sold it about two days later! :D I didnt think it was driveable but the guy put two spacesavers on the front and took it home, and I got a load of unpaid toll letters about two weeks later lol

Very nice 14!can i have it?
19-06-10, 15:24
Fredericks Balls

Yea. No bother pete, pop over Monday to pick it up :p

Got man-spec 25mm spacers all round. Just need the stretch (next sat) then they will go on. I'll still need to give the rear a little negative camber to squeeze the tyre in the arch lol they stick out a fair bit!

And after fitting...
http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a59...a/b3c6ffab.jpg

I f00king love the wheel, so i'm gonna sell my Nardi and the Momo that was in here before and buy another for the X81. Not sure if she will sell the Grex knob yet.

Got all the spacers on, alignment is all over the shop, ill get the camber gauges out at the weekend before i leave it in to get the tracking done. IMO it's looking better though...

Thanks Carlie, it's class although everytime I drive it my hands are black from the suede. Had to wash them like 10 times last night!!

Spacers are great, i took off 5 or 10mm slip ons so im gonna put them on the X81. They might be enough on the back then maybe get something a bit wider for the front :D
