Boxtype Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 The offset on the Starion wheels will/should be +18. Is the parts Starion that you can get 5stud? Yes 5 stud and 16" staggered wheels from a widebody,european spec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thousand Dollar Supercar Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 This car's looking good. I love louvres. I don't like the smell of CRC though. WD40 smells better. Does CRC run off the plastic parts in the rain and get on the rest of the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poo Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Nah, theres no run off. I sprayed the louver down the night before. It did have that white plastic oxide fading on top of it. After it soaked over night, I wiped the excess CRC off. Now it looks good as new. The other option wad to use Plexus, but that shit is spendy and my last can just ran out. Anyone else used Plexus? Its reeeealy good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poo Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Whats next? The A/C pump stopped working. Turns out the wire that engages the clutch for the pump does have power. So I'll get that working before summer. And while im at it I want to move the drier bottle for the A/C so I can put a bigger intercooler on it. When it was on the dyno Kent was saying that the intake temps kept climbing with every power run. So the pissie little intercooler that on it is too small.

MahaMana Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 haha just take the a/c out (man im a rough c*nt) Are you going to keep it small enough so you do not have to cut out the front bumper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSM Garage Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Yeah, take the A/C out.....and give to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poo Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Ive never seen the point in removing A/C unless it a race car. Hitting the button for cool fresh air, windows up while doing slightly over 100kph. Or defogging a misty windsceen in an instant. I may have to trim the bumper a bit depending on the size of the intercooler I choose. But it will still get painted black and be as subtle as possible.

Poo Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Argh. I can't edit the thread to say 'Poo's '81 Mitsi......' Oh we'll. if a nice mod sees this post....... And thanks Clint, I was looking for that. I pulled the LCAs off tonight. Then set fire to the bushes. And Sparkle. Pity those plates had a 'H' in them. Would like the plate POOMAN. My wife brought me POOMIN years ago but decided on something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abarth Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Those nothlane bushes on the end of that front arm will make your cars suspension fell crashy. Keep them rubber or rose joint them as they move up and down with the hub during suspension travel instead of resisting movement. I've got a similar setup in my car with a mix of rubber and nothlane bushes that works sweet. Nothlane is good in those wishbone style bushes.

Poo Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Bit late to put rubber mounts in there now. Interestingly, the rubber mounts on the LCAs dont actually allow the LCA to move freely. the centre collar bites into the crossmember and the only movment is thru the rubber moving/distorting. Now with the Nolathane, the colar still is fixed, but the nolathane spins on the greased collar. I hope its not too harsh........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
