fremyjay Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Awaiting more photos bud, want to see what she's looking like now
Aamir Posted December 2, 2013 Author Posted December 2, 2013 Well got it back on steels as I'm waiting on some new wheels which i may get in about a month. I'll be putting her back in the unit on 4 axel stands so i can fully undersell it and bleed all the brakes. I'm going to take the spoiler of as well and im getting Glanza mirrors😁. I shall get some pictures on Wednesday. Will give her a proper clean for the first time ever
Aamir Posted December 13, 2013 Author Posted December 13, 2013 So... sent my rear splitter of to get repaired on Wednesday and received it today. Was quite surprised in how long it took them to sort it, will need a respray but ive put it on the car anyway Before; After; Hmmm no spoiler??? New steering wheel, Genuine Nardi:

Aamir Posted December 31, 2013 Author Posted December 31, 2013 So I didn't get much done today just wasted my time doing nothing really.

Aamir Posted January 4, 2014 Author Posted January 4, 2014 I fitted my C's shortshifter about half an hour ago and was wondering if it was normal that its proper stiff? Will it get better the more I use it or will it always be like this? The spacers were cunts to fit as they are proper thick lol
Dan Barnes Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 is it clearing the floor pan properly mate? may need spacers to raise it up and longer boltsMy cousin fitted his to his gt this week and had to use additional spacers
Aamir Posted January 4, 2014 Author Posted January 4, 2014 Yeah it came with spacers and longer bolts mate, might just get better the more I use it
Dan Barnes Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 check its clearing 100% mate.. should feel ok as soon as its in.. C's are very tight shifters anyhow
Aamir Posted January 4, 2014 Author Posted January 4, 2014 Ahh right, I hope it's clearing because I really cannot be bothered to remove it again
TurboTobz Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 I have a home made short shifter and that's stiff as fuck - obviously it shouldn't be. Have you fitted spacers correctly?
Aamir Posted January 4, 2014 Author Posted January 4, 2014 Yeah I put the spacers on correctly and I tightened the 4 bolts up but it seems too harsh for my liking. I will probably crunch gear in every gear change lol (not passed yet)
Aamir Posted January 14, 2014 Author Posted January 14, 2014 Well it's my birthday today and I'm now 17 :DDApplied for a provisional license on the weekend £50 well spent. Idrees gave me the best birthday present ever haha, I shall reveal all soon
Dan Barnes Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 Happy birthday bro all the best with your lessons / test!
Aamir Posted January 14, 2014 Author Posted January 14, 2014 Thank you mate, also I found that the spacers are not lifting the the short shifter high enough so that's another problem sorted
micky boy Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 Hehe bet you cant wait mate Good luck with the test hope to see you on the road very soon And is the clue in the title?
Starlet-Joshy Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 Happy Birthday mate!, Bet you cant wait to get your starlet on road!
