cazzac2222 Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 Right, the rear end is not built up and finished looking fresh and ive started to dismantle the front end for the overhaul on that Just a quick opinion question, What colour do you think i should paint the front calipers?? The rears are a gloss black as they look soooo small i dont want them to stand out, im thinking the same on the front aswell but i also like a little colour behind the wheels.So what colour you guys sayin???Also i will try do a monster update of the full overhaul front and rear when ive finished Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cazzac2222 Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 Cheer Tom, they will be coming this weekend hopefully!!!I know im saying this every week now but its getting there and the only set back so far is i bought a brand new whiteline Anti lift kit and i go to fit it and one of the longer bolts is missing...Nice one!!Hopefully managed to get one from the local nut and bolt place and should have it all built up this weekend.Also, for the brakes, ive been looking into brake fluid, ive decieded to go for motul RBF 660 Dot 4 fluid, after reading many reviews this stuff seems to be the dogs dangles with very high boiling points compared to the traditional dot 5.1 fluid but £20 for 500ml also has my pants down ;) hahaAlso as im wanting to do a few track days and building her to handle well, so i decieded to pull everything from inside the car, still a few little things that could come out like but i aint going stupid pulling all the front door cars out etc I also know of a local weigh bridge so ill be taking her there to see how much she weighs when back on the road The brakes are also stupidly close to the sparcos, i mean feeler gauge close to the carriers, i really dont want to run spacers either so im going to see how they are after a couple of hundred mile.Sooo hopefully the car will be on all four axle stands this weekend for bleeding the brakes and some fresh pics of all the ARB's and fresh running gear That is all soo far but pics are needed ASAP haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
