looks good mate.
so did they say what the problem was?
-
The problem was basically it needed a dam good service. The last owner had not looked after the car espically the engine. It runs so well now though the garage has done a great job. On a seperate note scary moment today my front wheel buckled on me goin round a roundabout for no reason, nearly hit a tree. So i am gettin my wheels on Monday hopefully.
Right pain as i need my exhaust but that is now next on the list :D
-
good servicing!!! I would not have thought that was the problem but then i'm no mc nik.
when I have time and funds mine is getting done.but saying that mine ticks over ok so I guess theres no rush. lol :shock: :lol:
glad its ok for you just a shame about your wheels but you did want some lovely new ones tho….

The wheels were wolf race alloys. The are made from a low grade alloy so i have heard. The same thing happened to somebody in the fto owners club but he was doin 70 on the motorway and ended up trashing his car.
I,ve ordered my wheels SDX rota's carnt wait to get them on :D

My project has moved on another stage today 8)
A nice delivery man handed over 4 Rota SDX alloys to me this moring, complete with lightweight wheel nuts and a set of locking nuts :D
They look bronze in the photos (prob due to the low sun) - they are gunmetal in colour though. They're also extremely lightweight 8)
Next step on the project is a new exhaust :wink:
-
those look nice but have you thought about lowering it?

Thanks.
One step at a time :wink: Lowering will happen in the near future, but exhaust is next on the list because the current one has just about had it :lol:
-
Looking good :D Lowering will set them off nicely ;) What weight are they?
-
Thank you. I know it needs lowering it looks like a 4*4 at the moment. The weight of each wheel is 6.9kg and i all so have lightweight nuts and locking wheel nuts. They are meant to be 1 of the lightest 17" wheels you can buy and the price was good, and yeah they make a big difference to the look of the car.
Im very happy with them :D
-
wow that's light! My konigs 'lightweight's are 9.5kg. Again good choice :)
-
Yeah they are very light and you notice the difference. Carnt wait to get the exhaust fixed now. Got my indiglow dials and dial rings today so they will be on this weekend. Im after an airfilter as well can anyone reccomend a good one prefrable blue to keep with my theme :D
-
Another stage in the project…
My new backbox has arrived 8) , ready to be fitted on Monday along with a new Powerflow system. The current standard system has pretty much had it now.
-
its very shiny 8)
-
Yep it sure is shiny. Carn't wait to get it fitted on Monday. I will get a sound clip and some pics hopefully.
I'm just waiting on my air filter, front and rear strut braces & rear smoked lights.
I'm all so getting new front and back bumpers tomorrow, front bumper has the splitter :D which i wanted.
Just need a dam passenger side headlight as mine is dead.
-
Right, the exhaust is on :D
