Very nice shots. Car is just so clean flowing
Yeah the pics the guys got are great
Thanks man!
I'm so jealous
Anymore updates on this?
Followed you on Instagram there
Haha thanks man! Ah right didn't realise that was someone off here! Followed you back im sure!
Not much been happening tbh, I've been busy with uni and exams which start next week! Was away for 4 days week before last to Belgium through Uni and was down in Derby last week for a couple of days, so been a hectic few weeks haha.
Have managed to get a bit done though. I was getting a loud knocking noise that had appeared from no where and the steering felt ****, was paranoid it was the rack but closer inspection revealed this:
So yeah...new track rod inners ordered! Should've just done them when the rack was off but due to other factors all I replaced for the subframe/rack/arb swap was the droplinks, track rod outers and put some locking collars in. Lesson learned!
While I ordered the TRI's, I got oil change stuff from the guys at JapServiceParts as well as rear droplinks so that I could finally fit the rear ARB i've had sitting in my shed for over a year. The guys at JSP were kind enough to fire in a free GReddy magnetic sump plug for me too
As usual,
@Steve M was the unlucky guy that volunteered to help me and we got all the above fired on. Didn't get any pictures of the day unfortunately because it was CHUCKING it down, and we were too busy trying to get finished haha.
Another thing we did that day was fit some spacers to the front of the car, 16mm each side. This was a big deal because there was a complete **** up with my order from FreakyParts, which after 8 weeks left me with nothing. Anyway, ordered a set from JJC Race and Rally (for half the price) and got them within 3 days
. Top guys. Also raised the car 5mm all round to avoid rubbing with the now widened track. Still rubs a bit under heavy compression but nothing drastic.
So yeah, thats pretty much it! Here's a few recent pictures of the car, weather has been awful and I've been really busy so not had a chance to wash the car in a while
Cheers!
