You got a lovely car mate don't get disheartened by it I hope it is not too bad fingers crossed and chin up. When they ate all good they are awesome cars hope alls good
Right well the news from AMD is that the car has multiple boost leaks coming from 2 or 3 split pipes. The car was going to be all done on friday but one of the pipes is out of stock so i have to wait till monday.
Kind of puts things on ice for the wheels and springs. Wheels have not arrived yet anyway but everything else has.
Im just dying to get the stance right and the wheels on!
looks like AMD is gonna be about £180 so not too bad.
I got my 20mm rear spacers my 5mm Spacers and my Wheels all together today for the first time so now its time to fit it all to the car.
First task was picking the car up from AMD must say its a massive difference!
the steering wheel wants to try and come out of my hands now, probably due to needing all new bushes lol but its a change for the better. Much more powerful all the way around to the redline.
So i got home and took a couple of pics before the progress started.
And then it was off with the wheels to change these, i opted to do the rear first as i dont have any spring clamps.
Spring out
Spring in
Then it was time to fit these, they are really well made but i have not seen spacers like this before. If people say they are unsafe then ill change them "what do you think"
well ive given up for tonight as the son of a bitch front strut wont come off. need the right allen key so that i can get the top off then i might be able to get the bottom off.
has anyone got any ideas for how to get the fronts off.
excuse the pictures im no david bailey. Car is also dirty and not low enough.
Unfortunately if it was as low as others on here the fronts would definately rub. The good news is though that there is no wheel wobble and no rubbing. Woo Hoo!
