aucky Posted February 20, 2017 Author Posted February 20, 2017 Its nice and smooth mate.could here something rattling with old wheels on but that seams to have gone now [emoji6] brakes am a little dissapointrd at min with them dont feel as good as i expected.dont think they bleeded up right first time.done them again and pedal feels much better but not been out in it yet to see if their better.dirty brown fluid came out off one when i bleed them this time.but their are second hand so see how they go.while its in for oil change and coolant change n mot on thursday am going see if they can change brake fuild and give them a good flush out.but see how they are when i test it later today.

aucky Posted February 21, 2017 Author Posted February 21, 2017 well had to take brembos off for now,looks like they need full overhaul as they just wont bleed up,looking like their full of crap,so standard brakes are back on looks crap with new wheels but need be.will get a kit ordered then get them split,may as well put new seals and nipples and stuff in them while their getting done.off to brighton in morning in car so needed some confidence in breaks,see how the car handles the 500mile round trip ,oh well bed time for me early start
aucky Posted February 22, 2017 Author Posted February 22, 2017 Car made the 250mile trip to brighton without missin a beat.got to do it again to go home in a bit. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk
aucky Posted February 25, 2017 Author Posted February 25, 2017 got the spoiler from painters,Joe and the lads down at the wheel co in dronfield did a cracking job and a great price as well,so if you want any paint done and are near their give them a try.spoiler is on car now but was dark when finished so hope to give car a clean tommorow morning then off to find some were nice to get some pictures
aucky Posted February 26, 2017 Author Posted February 26, 2017 car cleaned,new spoiler fitted,car is starting to take shape now,couple more styling mods to go then will start on the handling 2

aucky Posted March 10, 2017 Author Posted March 10, 2017 Just now, david1972 said: did you rattle can the horns fella? yeah mate,they was red,then i did them silver to match my bug wagon,then put them on my silver blob and now their blue ,did them when i got a match rattle can made up at Halfords to do couple parts on car.
aucky Posted March 25, 2017 Author Posted March 25, 2017 not had much time to do stuff on car at the minute,been busy with other stuff,but i have had a part sat in man cave a couple weeks now and was itching to get it on,so as it was nice today i thought i would get it done,new exhaust fitted and sounds great,still need to tweak it a bit to get the pipes sitting right and am going to make some exhaust surrounds to tidy up were i had to cut hole in defusser,but for now it will do till surrounds are made
Beags Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Looks good . Looks a bit low for the old speed bumps. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Tapatalk
Beags Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Not if this photo will show up. But we talked about the rear wing. They have made a gurney stip for it. Rallysport direct.com. no photo of it attached but be cool. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Tapatalk
Grabey76 Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 You had it remapped? I've had two twin pipes either side, cat back exhaust and cosworth air panel filter put on. Remap next. Mines a 59 plate WRX.
