Looks very well with the wheels

Well met up with silvertooth again today and bought the front 2 advans to give me a full set now...



the fronts are very weak offset and only a 8j but strangly enough this suits me as my car trailer is quite narrow so it helps me in this case..

as ya can see they are in need of a refurb as were the rears so will tackle that tomorrow , i just removed all the locking studs from the wheels this evening..

[ste]

Ha prob outta boredom Pete that and I can't be not doin somthing... plus I not doing a savage job on them or anythin just tryin to brighten em up

well after the day in balbriggan it is like a new car to me now..

since mondello i have -

replaced all gaskets, the car now pulls great and boosts nice and steady..

replaced leaking hydro line, still may be air in system didnt work great but might increase handle length

fitted all adjustable arms and sold rear bushes and got it set up by Wez..
this is where i noticed biggest difference.The car was unreal to drive in comparison to before, i had so much more grip than before, no understeer, nice even tire wear and i felt alot more comfortable when transitioning..

all in all had a great day even tried getting close to bales although i gave them a bit of a bang once ha ha

heres the best pic i have found so far

well fuck all really happening here as of late had my second day out in balbriggan drifting and had a shitty day drivin wise, think i spun more often than not... also blew the turbo near the end of the day and annoyed me a lil..

so went up to cavan today to empty all the shit from car and sort out the shed where all my parts are kept and decided to sand these out as they have been driving me mad since gettin the car..now i no its a drift car but who sprayed the car should NEVER be let near a spray gun....



some runs there


kinda got bit carried away and went home with the car lookin like this




so the plan is to repair bumpers somewhat and just blow car over in matt black as its nice and cheap and easy to repair when the car gets hit again... if i get better and more confident ill look into gettin it sprayed if i decide to hit pd next year
