AaronGlanza Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 So after being on this site for a while I've finally got round to buying my first 'pocket rocket'I absolutely love it! It's pretty much completely standard bar the exhaust system, turbo timer, boost gauge and front and rear strut braces Any help would be great! I really like the varis front bumper and live sport rear spoiler so they're on my wish list lolThere's one slight problem with the car, it's really hard to put into gear, it's almost like your fighting with it trying to get it in lol1st is abit funny and once it is in gear there's loads of play in the gear stick? Any idea how I could fix this?Could someone also help me fit a dump valve just upload a pic of there's or something? The previous owner gave me a baileys bov to fit and this is my first turbo charged car and not really sure how.Thanks a lot lads let me know what you think to the car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Looks sweet bud..love black vs haha. TBH wouldn't bother with a baileys, speak for a few here i think, they run like shit. They leak ALOT, mine was awful. Sell it on and buy a better one from the for sale section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Baz-GlanzaV Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Saw this up for sale when I bought mine if I'm correct. Looks very clean pal! Love black V's ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AaronGlanza Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 I think it's baileys anyway hahaThanks lads still unsure about the wheels but not sure what to get, saw a v on xxrs that looked sick Any idea about the gearbox issue? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ollieh17 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 try changing the gearbox oil before changing anything else, made a big difference to mine! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zeldoz Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Lovely car, Was between my 98 spec silver one, and this one when i purchased mine a month or so ago! Just didn't fancy a black car. Looks really nice with the white wheels now mate! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Looks awesome dude, looking forward to seeing what you do to it! Mines also a bit dodgy getting into gears sometimes. Let me know how you end up fixing it if you do please I'm hoping to change my gearbox oil after Christmas to some good stuff and hopefully that'll improve it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starlet-Joshy Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Seen this for sale on ebay, looked really nice mate, Got a really clean car!, shame about the gearbox bit though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AaronGlanza Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 Thanks lads!It seems the gear box is just one of my problems, I need all new disks and pads, also has some sort of leak but it doesn't taste like antifreeze I'm hoping it's just washer jet fluid filled it too the top gunna check see if it's gone down tomorrow Fitted a baileys dump valve today too, sounds awesome! This is my first turbo charged car so I still get excited when it dumps Hahah (you've all been there once) ;) Few tweaks and she will be ready to rock! And I can start modding! plasma dials and HIDs first Quote Link to post Share on other sites
