Christmas update!

Maybe a silly question but i will ask anyway, If you do end up putting a gud 5/6 layers on could there be problems from having such a build up?? I know it might not affect general car panels but if I did that to my wheels the first thing which pop's to mind is the balancing of the wheel being thrown out! I just don't wont to waist painting it then having to peel it all off and do it again!! :think:

It wouldn't be anymore than a normal paint job on wheels, you can always get them re balanced if they are out.

finally I have something worth writing home about! It's been a long old few months after a less than cheap trip to New York everything got put on a hold. I am back and raring to mod!

 

Few things to know are the car passed an MOT with a completely blown shock , I was unaware of this until my service and know I know why the car listed so much to left recently so new shocker ordered from DPM performance top blokes and very helpful over there! Few mods this year mostly little things and still things waiting to go onto the car. I swapped out my FARB for a R32 one which mean't less scraping on the drive shafts.

 

 

Broken oil hose pipe which was annoying.

 

Running -3.0 of camber on the rear now need a little maybe -4.0

 

bought a baffled sump as wanting to do hill climb next year and 12 this year if I ever get around to sorting out the license. 

 

Also on the shopping list was a Kenwood head unit with DAB/Satnav the works. 

Might just have to try the off road mode!

 

usual dial cluster colour changes and stickers added to the car, I ordered UV purple and got pink they have since been changed to blue..

 

Bought a LCR splitter didn't last more than a week before I ripped it off the car in a field in prescott hill climb.

Installed a full brake update EBC dimples and grooves and green stuff pads all round. 

 

 

Most importantly I am signed up for the ModBall rally next year and have just organized a new paint job for the car via dipyourcar.co.uk, so should look very tasty even better next year with modball stickers and sponsors on it!

Green stuff are very poor especially on the heavy octy

Blue are meant to be good

Ah ok. I have noticed better braking and sharper but then the disc's were pretty shot along with the pads.
