peteretep Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 hey man very nice car, i always liked the capris with the useless airvents taken off leaving the moulding. With the throttle cable, there may be a kink in the cable somewhere, i had a problem with my bonnet release cable because of a small kink, also, make sure that it isnt ur foot pedal jamming, maybe a bit of crc needed?? also, whats the point of having adjustable front suspension and un-adjustable rear suspension?? lift the front up but not the back??

Sparkle Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 tis wickd man. looks true porn with the sideskirts and back bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Yea thanks. The adjustable suspension up front proves pretty much useless anyway as it cant wind down fully coz itl hit the tyre. So yea, adjusties in front was just a easy way of getting a good ride height i guess and for "bling factor" for shows, but they mite have to go unless i can get a rim with a different offset.

Josh Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 And thanks for info on throttle cable, il have a look at it and see if its kinked, and crc the pedal too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 No offence, but you should lose the wheels, they kinda don't suit your car, like the car is mean, but the wheels... Get some modgies, that would look pretty awesome, all chromed up, be mint for shows! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toucan Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Wheels could be worse though, they certainly look better in the most recent photo's with the side skirts and the low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Yea im lookin at changing them quite soon, just gotta find something with the right offset to clear winder things in adjusties. And they wont be small rims either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaMpylobacter Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Get some modgies, modgies are the worst wheel, ever - superlights look any good on there? 16x8's or somethin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfadog Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Your car is very different to all other Capris out there (S14 rear finishing bits - who woulda thought!) so I'd suggest some different wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defective Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 yeah thats why i like the rims that are on it now. that capri is sooooooo different in style to any other capri oldschool style rims would just look wrong. imho anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Yeah I was thinking lose the new school additions, and I don't know why I said modgies, lites all the way Hey, I'm a purist, but this is a show car, not my domain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defective Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 Yeah I was thinking lose the new school additions, and I don't know why I said modgies, lites all the wayHey, I'm a purist, but this is a show car, not my domain! nah, thats what makes it stand out. it could have looked really really gay (thinking gt wing or similar) if josh had done things a little differently, but hes managed to blend old and new school and make it look pretty bloody decent. something really out there under the bonnet would really finish it off... hmm, thinking supercharged renesis.... or LS2 (even tho i hate gm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
